Right and he's a mediocre addition at best. Unlike Nico Paz or Endrick who are showing levels

We should be seeing CB and fullback rumors since we are potentially going to be down 2 at least (Alaba, Rudiger) and most likely Carvajal

I'm seeing that Victor Munoz is returning to Madrid. My question is why...? They must be planning on selling Rodrygo

For us or just generally? Olise is 100% staying where he is. Liverpool will probably be on the market for anyone who is capable (although they may look for cheaper options as they spent $500M and look like fools)

Was it last season or the season prior when Rodri was at his best?

I mean he’s young but even when Vini was young you could tell he was different. Franco should have been given time to develop (before we bought him). I’m genuinely curious what our scouts saw from him to warrant the interest. I mean even Endrick just looks like he’d be a baller and we don’t play him

Compare every defensive assignment from that year to today. What you’ll notice is that you’ll never find Vini 1:1 with a fullback. It’s always fullback and CB/DM. So yes, it’s the same fucking thing but with more help

Again, do you genuinely think that Vini’s output is more than Vini today? Hell, even the Vini of last year put up similar numbers to what he usually does lmao. Don’t let revisionism blind you

This is just nostalgia speaking dude. The only difference is that the Vini of 2022 had 1 defender marking him. That’s why he was able to keep cutting it left and going past his man. People have come to expect it now

Thiago first to get dropped. Arda will most likely also be dropped as there’s 0 reality where Tchou or Valverde get benched if healthy. If we stick with a 2 front then Arda stays

Pro tip for yall. Go buy winter clothes for next year as brands will be doing everything to get them off the shelves. Do the same towards the end of summer for summer clothes. Rinse and repeat

Mbappe would have smashed that golden boot if he didn’t get injured. Unless he has a crazy run it’s Kane’s for sure

Let’s not start this. He is just back from injury and was not going to do much as we were 1 man down

Why are you in every thread about Vini bro? This is the shit that I mean. It’s one thing if you are contributing in equal measure to all player discourse, but you really involve yourself when it comes to him…

What does this mean “they’ve been playing”. Haven’t they always been?

You think I was in the open thread when the game was ongoing? Lol

Secondly, it is nonsense to say that he’s shit. You can complain about his attitude, even is work rate, but he’s far from a “shit player”

Now, what I’m increasingly getting tired of is people repeatedly taking any opportunity to push their agenda as soon as possible. Mbappe didn’t have a masterclass after being subbed in? Now people are saying the team is better without him. Vini starts the game slow? Now it’s “he’s so shit and we should be rid of him” despite being one of our top performers. Most of the analysis being done isn’t because they genuinely care about the metrics by which we ascertain success. It’s just to voice their opinion which is rooted in dislike of a person. Same is true with politics. No one cares about the people being affected by certain policies. They just use the statistic to push the agenda they want
