@bbrandenburg14@thevarman9@FCBinsideEN He’s by far your best midfielder in terms of ability after kimmich, nagelsmann really dropped the ball with this one
@opiatebocken@BoZap7@DRNKLT Tah and kimmich were constantly being caught out by much quicker players. Especially kimmich, putting him on a strong fast winger like diomande is a death sentence. Tah is just slow so it hurts, created that adingra due to how slow and dumb he is.
@aphillip712@torbjornhk_@NealGardner_ Soccer/football is one of the few games in the world where if you’re good enough your physical traits really don’t matter as much. You can be tall short skinny even a bit overweight if you’re good enough with the ball at your feet that’s it.
@torbjornhk_@aphillip712@NealGardner_ What do you define as power, he had a rocket for feet for sure but that was more so due to his ball-kicking technique than actual physical prowess.
@torbjornhk_@aphillip712@NealGardner_ De Bruyne was a very efficient player but never athletic, wasn’t pacey nor particularly strong.
He had an average physique his whole career and was never one that physically dominated his opponents, did you watch him?
@kors23058@Kalshi_Film Theo doesn’t look like bond, bond has that rugged 50s white man look. It’s like saying Jason mamoa should play Superman, doesn’t fit him
@Ticker90909@stoica_mente@bergamodn4@Kamjiverse Argentina has won the last World Cup with no black players, Croatia made the semi finals with none either. So why do you “NEED” black players?
@BigFamiliesFTW@JYMUFC@NealGardner_ In terms of trophies and accolades maybe but in terms of ability I see only no one over him. If I put these guys in that city side for years I don’t see them being as successful
If KDB played for Barca or real he’d be far more respected than he is. I have him in my top 3.
@SpideyShillOG@NealGardner_ I’ve seen ppl of all races age differently, how’d you account for a 40 yr old Modric and a 40 yr old Neuer. Still top players
@aphillip712@NealGardner_ He’s never been an athletic player though even in his prime, his real problem has been injuries and his attitude towards the sport.
@FPLfrasier@NealGardner_ He’s really smart and tactical one of the best minds in football. Physically ofc there’d be a decline but I think it’s more so just the dynamics of the national team, after the chemistry broke it just isn’t working. He still shows his quality at Napoli
