Moyes needs Bale & Suarez, immediately! RVP is AVERAGE. I was a pub striker in my playing days, so I know the role well. He scored 2 but he always does in the average EPL. Where was he against Real Madrid? He wouldn't score half the goals in a superior league like the Russian. Their defenders are no nonsense, strong & destroy forwards. The Prem is full of flashy 'defenders' who can't mark a man.

vaginal culture posted:After watching the match, my main question for City is are they built with too many players trying to score rather than move the ball? It looked like many of them were too busy trying to stuff it down the middle rather the work the edges. Cardiff stood firm but City kept with the same attack until the last five minutes before stoppage time. Pelligrini may need to rethink the starting XI because it looked overloaded with strikers and need more assist. I mean really, Cardiff stood firm in the center of the pitch for the majority of the match but City's strikers kept going to the center of the pitch like something was going to change. They did not try to work the corners until late in the match; which showed a lack of a speed attack on the wings that Chelsea and United possess. Lastly, bench Lescott. Today 2:03pm Haha, this one is great. Yeah City's problem is they don't faff around with the ball enough

There are a couple excessively optimistic ones like "It's like we're at the dawn of something pretty special." but honestly yeah, most of those are pretty reasonable considering they're on a single-club forum

I like that he basically lists a bunch of points of criticism against Cruyff and then goes "Di Canio does this too!" without ever bringing up all the advantages to Cruyff and his methods and to maybe use those for comparisons too

tetsman posted:I've run the numbers and ΔT4 is only positive for a fraction of the league, but it doesn't correlate to the SiBoT Diff making the DZoT Diff an interesting rate that reflects the structural anomaly of the bouncebackability that seems to dominate the possession turnover, at least in my Italian view of football. Did you remember to adjust for final third entry solidification?

That's sort of the argument of the poster though. That statistics do not demonstrate that Webb is more biased, in part because of too small a sample size. That's the real problem though. His "background" section:quote:Background: A Telegraph article claimed that Howard Webb bottles big decisions and that statistics proved this. I wanted to look at whether the statistics actually support the claims made in the article. Who sits down and writes this poo poo because they felt a Telegraph article was statistically inacurate

Destroy My Sweater posted:that's the problem.... you don't let Ronaldo decide anything. You get in his face and you piss him off. If I were Klinsmann... I would tell every right-sided player who will see time in our defensive third...."Listen.... Ronaldo has no idea who you are right now... if he doesn't remember your face, and know your name by the end of the game.... and hate you..... then you've failed today." I like this one because basically every single time I've seen someone try to piss off Ronaldo or rough him up, he ends up scoring. Getting him all riled up is like the last thing you want to do. I remember the first game against Sweden in the knock-out qualifiers, seeing him pissed off at not getting decisions, at being tackled dangerously, and I couldn't help but think he'd go on to score a winner out of pure spite.

quote:Widely considered to be one of the craftiest young talents around, Rodríguez can play anywhere from a midfield position to a winger position. He's able to switch from either a left to a right side position as well as a center, making him a very versatile player. Most of his key attributes surround his technical abilities as an extremely balanced player, relying on precise mental sharpness over strength and speed, despite having high stats with said attributes. Rodriguez invests his training towards becoming as 'balanced' as possible.[79][80][81]

I've never really understood WHY American sports journalists in particular keep wanting to change the rules of the game. I mean, it's not like they're all talking about one specific change that would maybe benefit the USMNT, it's just random poo poo here and there that would either break (the flow of) the game or have no real effect. I get that they're idiots who don't understand the game, but would stupid rules changes really change that? WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH aaaaaaaaa

Earthy Ape Unit posted:Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win 1.34 to 0. I'm a total social justice warrior in most regards and there's a surprising amount of fiery Jezebel rhetoric I agree with, but this is too dumb. The sheer ignorance about football (women have more goals because they have longer careers and more of their games end in penalty shootouts!!) overwhelmed any desire I had to listen to what points the author was actually trying to make.

Lol I just went on his twitter to check how he'd logic himself out of that one and his argument was that the January window was in the same "year" (calendar) as one summer window and in the same "year" (football season) as another one, and as a result, no matter which January window Fowler would lump in with the 2014 July window, Barton would claim it was in a different "year"
