I believe every great coach thinks this way. Even not too great coaches believe it. Which was why ten Hag wasn't having any of that when Ronaldo wasn't pressing and the media and his fans were making it sound like "Cristiano didn't to have to defend because he is Cristiano." Excuse you? He is Cristiano, not Messi.

🇩🇪🗣️ Jürgen Klopp:

“As long as you are not Lionel Messi, you have to defend.”

[ChocoTribe @Debbybruno3]

Ronaldo will have to beat Romario first before beating Pele 😭😂

The finished grandpa can't even score tap-ins anymore. 😭

After listening to President William Ruto at the ongoing UNGA, it's safe to say, as a Nigerian, that Kenya is now the Giant of Africa.

[omeo 𖤐 @ihyomeo]

who tf still watching 21 seasons later 😭

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

You just have to respect the honesty no matter who you are.

Ronaldo fans won't though.

They believe players from top 5 European leagues are moving to Saudi Arabia because of their idol.

Do you know how stupid you have to be to believe that nonsense?

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇸🇦 Tijjani Reijnders on moving to Saudi Arabia: “It’s money for generations of my family”.

“Once my playing career is over, I don’t want to have to work anymore. Of course, I probably wouldn’t have needed to work anymore after my contract at Manchester City either, but this move allows me to secure the future of the next generations of my family”.

“I’m not going to lie about that. By signing this contract, I can make sure even my grandchildren are financially secure, so why wouldn’t I do it?”.

The World Cup isn't a dream, but the Nations League is a mission.

Who are the dolts stanning this retard?

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇵🇹 Cristiano Ronaldo: “The missions now are two: winning the Nations League and reaching 1000 career goals”.

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

Wish Messi was saying all this when the system decided to transmogrify the criteria for winning the award into a Golden Boot and/or a
UCL-winning race having four-peated it between 2009 & 2012. He should have spoken up.

[Reshad Rahman @ReshadRahman]

🥶 Lamine Yamal tells FF: “The Ballon d’Or, as you say, is the award that recognizes the best player of the year, a unique player, the one who gives pleasure watching, the one for whom you tune into a match just to see him” ✨🤩

“I think that's the different player. It has nothing to do with the number of goals he scores or anything else like that. I don't know, when I think about the Ballon d’Or, I think of Messi, Ronaldinho, players like that, who are different, who bring a smile when you watch them play” #FCB 🪄💙❤️

For a lawyer who frequently visits prisons, whatever you must have seen in EFCC office should never have prompted this alarmism.

[Chisom Agbafor @ChisomAgbafor]

I went to EFCC office today and all I can tell you is avoid crime, avoid crime, avoid crime, avoid crime, avoid crime, avoid crime, avoid crime!!!!!!

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

All I want is escapism — in a world of sadism.

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

As a journalist, never use the word never.

[Johnny Cortes @johnnycortes]

Never forget 😭😭😂

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

Best player in the world.

🚨 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗭𝗬 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧: Kylian Mbappé in La Liga this season:

❌ Failed to score vs. 2nd place Atlético Madrid and 4th place Real Betis

⚽️ Scored vs. 10th place Rayo, 14th place Real Sociedad, 18th place Elche, and 20th place Malaga

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

I hope he still wants this after Brighton are done decimating his UCL-averse club that had always been lucky in terms of performance and results before today.

[Santi @PeakSxnti]

Can we scrap the international break please? 😂😂

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

In order for Ronaldo fans to downplay Messi's achievements, they don't mind downplaying Ronaldo's. Always hilarious to see.

[rbc.enzo @enzo_rbc]

Someone said Haaland go break 91 goals in calendar year record if he dey laliga 😭😂

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

@PoojaMedia A supposed Arsenal hater that's always speaking from the perspective of Arsenal when things are going well. I wonder who he is deceiving.

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

I never realized jogging in your 50s would be a great way to meet new people.

Just today, I met two nurses, two EMTs, and a cardiologist.

I was so close to meeting Jesus too.

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

Delusion is a real concept.

Bae U had long been deluding himself into believing that his show was the best in Africa — even when it seemed he was clowning — it's manifesting today.

In that sense, I'll be a millionaire in USD before 2030.

@KanyinEross, MLD, you get my drift?

[Director Bae_u @isbae_u]

Drops 6pm today!

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🫂✨ Lamine Yamal tells Movistar: “Lionel Messi was the best player at the World Cup because of everything he represents and everything he did”.

“Even though everyone knows Messi is the best player in history, nobody expected him to have such an incredible World Cup”.

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

Absolutely fantastic!

Someone should please send this to Mbappé. Because it seems like a direct message — a well-detailed message, or analysis, if you like — to him.

Hopefully, @FIFAcom, France Football & @ballondor see it as well, in case they're planning something sinister.

[M 🇦🇷🧉 @fcbmessiaddict]

This might be the best breakdowns of the Mbappé Ballon d’Or argument I’ve seen. 😭

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

As y'all can see, Rufai Oseni knows his onions.

As for those saying or asking if he is now the spox of H.E. Peter Obi, glad that's the question that is being asked. At least no one, including the interviewee, Dr Law Mefor, is saying he is clueless about his accounting breakdown.

[Emma ik Umeh (Tcee )🇳🇬 @emmaikumeh]

"Peter Obi took loans truly but he's only responsible for $30M drawdown not the $120M Soludo is quoting"

– Rufai Oseni lol 😆

[Simply Pompey @Pompey1960]

Thought Ronaldo fans swore the MLS Campeones Cup wasn't recognised by FIFA. Bunch of party poopers those lot.

[Ballon d'Or @ballondor]
