Not winning trophy doesn't mean they were useless.

Kimbeast:

When I saw ballack I almost puked. Who the feck is ballack.

afrodoc2:


Forget that one. It’s only on NL Sports threads that Boateng is rated as a great defender.

popizaino:



England didn't make euro 2008, it is reflected in the ratings.

Kimbeast:

Defensively maybe but that Lazio team was no walk over. Veron, Mihajlovic, Nedved, Simeone & Stankovic to name a few. It was a great team.

raumdeuter:


You dey ask And so for person wey make CL and world cup final yet Hidden Shakushaku never made any of these

obainojazz:
Whattttt

raumdeuter:


Dislike him all you want, I dislike Ballack too for leaving Bayern

You cannot take it from someone who took Leverkusen to a CL final and one of the worst Germany in 2002 to a world cup final

popizaino:



Useless player that Carrick / Alonso were always dominating in the midfield whenever we play united or Liverpool then.

popizaino:
Predictable as usual.

I asked for trophy not where he reached.

Greatihex:
and where did you see reasons why klopp did not perform?


I have made my point against what you were trying to preach.

Every sensible person knows that i said the truth and made sense, i don't know why you can't see that.

Greatihex:

Klopp came in to a team that was in mid table, had sold their best player, were low on morale, he did not have a preseason with them, no signing, at a busy period of the season;
It is not Everything that you should argue
I no get time for this

BlueRayDick:


What has not making Euros 2008 got to do with their 2006 performance for both country and club.

You really need to make me understand you o

afrodoc2:

popizaino:


You posted a screenshot were english players were rated lower than their counterparts from other countries and i gave an honest reason of fifa using national team performance for the ratings, only for you to select some random players which I said England it didn't make the euro 2008 as the reason for why those players you selected were higher. So if you are talking about 2006 I still maintain my initial point that their world cup performance was still the reason.

raumdeuter:


Facts only!!

airmark:


I laughed when I saw the Ghanaian in that list.

raumdeuter:


Do you actually watch football or just dig up stuff from your arse?

Cos Ballack dominated Man Utd and was best player on the pitch in 2008 when he scored a Brace to get Chelsea a win vs Man Utd

obainojazz:
The carry d'or defender... He played in the best teams at that time.. He was less important than the rest truth be told.. At 29,he is already old and his club president is cursing him publicly
Put Maguire in those teams.. And he will achieve more

Roland17:
I am glad the EPL did the right thing by awarding T. Pukki (Norwich) the EPL player of the month for August.

Obere4u:


And they said he is Finnish, they don't know it's just the beginning


The Pukki party continues tomorrow

raumdeuter:


This comment just showed who you are in football and how limited your knowledge is

Best midfielder in a CL. Best midfielder in a world cup, A player Ferguson was begging with captain band is the same one you are talking about in the same sentence as those overrated English pieces of shitt

Greatihex:
tell me you are not talking about the pooling booth award here?

dayokanu:
I watched Rio at Leeds with Ian Harte, Radebe etc and he has always been average and overhyped. Wes Brown also won trophies and John oshea. Ferdinand rode on the brilliance of vidic. Vidic is one of the best defenders of the last decade and I would acknowledge this even though he plays for man utd but [b]Ferdinand is pure garbage[/b]

dayokanu:
Ferdinand is no better than Efe Sodje. I have always said it that he is an average defender who always gets people to cover up his mess

raumdeuter:

Who were the great defenders he played with at Lazio? Negro, Pancaro Favvali or who

When compared to Vidic, Nesta Canavaro Ramos Carvalho Puyol Boateng, Sammer etc Real defenders, Rio was beyond useless.

Vidic had to carry pipes like Rio Wes Brown Oshea etc

I watched Rio his entire career and knew he was useless. Its different being part of a great squad. Gary Neville was part of a great squad but was individually useless

Nesta got to Milan when Maldini was 34, Cafu was 32 and Stam was 30. and won the CL immediately. Nesta carried that Milan defence for 10yrs where they made 3 CL finals

By 2007 CL final which Milan won Nesta was playing with Oddo Jankulovski and 39yr old Maldini You will probably tell us Oddo and Jankulovski are also great defenders

raumdeuter:


Every reasonable person knows you are not smart
diately


What is the meaning of the part in bold if not to give excuses for finishing 10th

raumdeuter:


Before Boateng, Bayern crashed out of the CL second round, Bayern got Boateng and made 5 straight semi finals. Same way with how he beasted the world cup finals

That is impact unlike one carryon bag Rio and Terry that couldnt even qualify their country for EUro cup

Greatihex:
oga raumdeuter!!! Seriously!!! e reach you like this?





someone should please tell me that there is another defender named boateng that played when i didn't know anything.
it can't possibly be jerome boateng that oga is talking about. Please, airmark, ibime, afrodoc2, nihilistjnr
