"This guy deserves books — dozens of books — written about him, because someone will have to explain how whenever Real Madrid have to play without the best goalkeeper in the world — and one of the top-five all time, and arguably the greatest ever — that it’s not consequential because Andriy Lunin ensures he meets the required level.
It’s one thing to be the back-up to the best goalkeeper in the world; it’s another thing to be the back-up to the best goalkeeper in the world, virtually never playing as a result, and anytime Real Madrid need you — once in a blue moon — you come in ‘cold’ and put in a man-of-the-match performance.
Lunin is the *perfect* back-up goalkeeper. An impossible role to fill, filled to a science.
You know how Brad Pitt tells that kid in Troy “that’s why no one will remember your name?”. Guess what: that kid was not Lunin, because everyone will remember Lunin’s name. Forever."

Real Madrid is demanding Javier Tebas resign as LaLiga president after he compared the club's methods to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.
Disagree with Madrid all you want. Comparing anything in football to one of history's darkest chapters is indefensible.
