Son is really football gladiator right now

Props for the Gladiator quote... I think Neymar less a gladiator & more a sell sword.

The highlight of RvP's return to Feyenoord.


I don't watch the Copa Libertadores as often as I used to, in part due consistency of broadcasts available even though I have a complete foreign language channels package. I'm miss the zaniness that occurs during matches like this.

i asked a simple question and you are deflecting

you called them amazing...not me.

Now if the team is amazing do they have amazing players or is it a group of great players that makes them amazing? Interesting way to look at it. Also, many of their players can play amazingly at times. Furthermore, some of their players are amazing in the PL, thus clouding peoples judgement if they played poorly elsewhere. Take into consideration their managerial changes. Can’t be easy for the team. Changing formations and what not. Does the formation, which impacts a players ability to shine, mean they aren’t amazing? Take into consideration my buddy Chicharito. Great/amazing player at times, but struggling in a league where he’s proven he can excel. Sure their current formation isn’t suited for a poacher like him. For that reason is he not great/amazing? Finally, their kits are pure class. That alone should make the whole club amazing. So in essence all their players are amazing, just because Barca isn’t trying to buy any of them doesn’t mean they suck. I hate you btw.
