@TeamCRonaldo He should have honesty sat it out.
That knee needed rest to recover during the summer, and he likely did irreversible damage by choosing to play instead...
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC You're the one coping son.
If Portugal had a better squad, they'd have it to a final already.
Again, football isn't played on paper.
@Logicull@THR33P34T France were missing half of their starters in the final and still dragged Argentina all the way to pens.
Honestly, congrats to Arg, but that has to be one of the weakest WC winning campaigns of all time.
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Why do u keep bringing up golf!? ๐
Stick to PT.
Yes, a history of winning, or at least competing matters.
Younger gen's use it as an example to see what's achievable, & expected. It's called heritage.
PT had very little of that until CR7
Arg alr had that in spades b4 Messi
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Omg you really just went & said more dumb shit ๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Domestic clubs are a completely diff case cos big investors can come in & turn a club into a powerhouse.
Man City is another good example of that.
You're right, football clearly isn't for everyone... you being one of them.
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Football heritage. Past success has everything to do with current/future success...
"On paper" ๐ I was waiting for you to say some stupid shit like that.
This isn't football manager or Fifa son. Arg have been a better team than PT, the result reflect that.
Keep coping... ๐ฅฑ
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC I literally already pointed out why - because he plays for PT.
PT had never even made a final before CR7, & they'd only ever qualified for both the WC & Euro's a total of 3 times.
This is PT we're talking about, not Arg or Brazil lad ๐
Its also not arguable, UCL IS harder...
@Emolclause@Robin77425@Trollkickoff Just as crazy to say he's better than CR7.
Speaking of teen sensations, CR7 came to Man U at 18 (as the most expensive teen transfer in history at the time) and was immediately given the no.7 shirt right after Beckham left.
What was R9 doing at 18? Playing in some shit league.
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Never played golf a day in my life. What a weird assumption...
But yes, the UCL is by far the most competitive tournament in football.
There's no argument against that fact...
@ameenfitt@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Not made for the WC, but made for the UCL which is OBJECTIVELY significantly more competitive than the WC.
Hmm... i wonder what the disconnect couldn be there? ๐ค
@oafc94olly@Slimghost02@KalshiFC No they haven't, Olly.
If that were truly the case, then how tf did Argentina go on a run of like 30+ unbeaten games heading into the WC, before eventually winning it?
Messi fans only see what they want. Sad children...
@Bryan_7892q@Slimghost02@KalshiFC If we're going off of the WC, Mbappe > Messi & CR7 easily.
He may go down as the greatest WC player of all time by the end of his career.
@TheGreekShriek@Slimghost02@KalshiFC Yeah he's already up there, and he's not even in his 30 yet lol
Guy absolutely kills the WC, but he also consistently has the one of the best top 3 teams.
Which was my whole point...
