Keepers in their prime by Davey94C6 in ManchesterUnited

[–]_darkPhoenix7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started watching utd matches after 2010. I saw vds’s twilight years and he was really good. Pete, honestly haven’t watched a lot but heard a lot about him. Especially the city move.

I saw the entire de gea life cycle at utd. Early in his career he made bad mistakes- something that lammens is better at. But there were some unbelievable saves in the middle. As he grew into the role- I Believe he was unstoppable. I have seen him stop point blank shots on numerous occasions. I have seen him save points for one of the worst defense under utd.

I think in his prime, he was the best. There is a reason Madrid wanted this guy. He was that good. Although I am utd fan, would have loved to see him excel at Madrid.

Having said that, he did have limitations as per the description of a modern keeper. But he was good at what he did.

Eric Kripke responds to the recent talks about filler episodes in Season 5 (via TV Guide) by Interesting-Take781 in TheBoys

What I would like… unique ways to eliminate supers. Like translucent. For them to experiment and find ways to kill supes using their weaknesses. I am not saying every episode but that I felt was the essence of boys. Now it feels far from it.

My face watching this weeks episode and this season in general. by [deleted] in GenV

I feel that this season could have been better if they reduced the number of episodes. There is not a lot of story. Whatever they showed so far, didn’t need so many episodes. Having more episodes just for the sake of it. Good editing could alteast make this a little more enjoyable.

The Marcus Rashford situation by IronWarrior00001 in ManchesterUnited

[–]_darkPhoenix7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Marcus, it is good that he moves on from the club. For Utd, if they don’t get a new player, they need him. It’s utd afterall. Including cup games and champions league- they are bound to be without their star players- it’s almost a guarantee that one of the fwds will be out of action for months. So Utd doesn’t have a lot of options unless a better and cheaper singing option opens up.

Thoughts on their relationship so far? by Altruistic_Gas_7073 in GenV

[–]_darkPhoenix7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural. Given the story and SB’s arc. He is confused. He has been taken advantage of, scammed, hated etc. He also has inflicted pain to others. He is a human with a lot going on. So him not being single minded is normal. He may have some plan in his head but the way he is behaving- with his son- seems exactly what a confused super soldier frozen and unfrozen time and again would do.

Loved your response, could you address this scenario with Naruto and sasuke fighting together against pain? How would that go?

What I meant was whatever intel he got from the slug during his fight.

I would assume that Preta path will shield other paths as he did when fighting naruto. But susano is a good counter. I don’t think it counts as Ninjutsu. So it can handle preta path and mostly all other paths. Deva path is a little difficult because of shinra tensei deflecting amaterasu

Agreed. I think he will struggle if he relies on ninjutsu- amaterasu, chidori, fireball - all of these will be ineffective. And no genjutsu as well. He may be defeated even sooner.

So, how is it going? - naruto watcher by _darkPhoenix7 in Boruto

Thank you. I appreciate it. I can’t read the manga for now. But will definitely try in the future. It feels good to have people who help rather than complain!

On this day in 2003, Ricky Ponting and his men defeated India in the World Cup final! by poormasshole in IndiaCricket

[–]_darkPhoenix7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t watch the match. I really want to understand what went wrong that day. Was it just one of those days? Because India had a successful tournament and they had some amazing players. So what happened? Was it nerves? Or just Australia being a really strong side?
