randomperson: They're stats ofcourse Fraudulent stats accrued all through his stay at Barcelona while he was busy faking his retirements and making empty promises upandan The strange thing is....Your Messi is only just a Barca Legend And even if he ends up winning the World cup...it will never mean shii to me...FIFA actually wish they gifted him the World cup ...but the world is watching But I wanna ask you just one question Do you think Messi is a fraudulent hypocrite? Answer honestly |

SyIvalord: Who are the great keepers from Spain you can recall? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Unlimited22: 3:56pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
SyIvalord:I'm a bit young so for Spain I can only point out Zubizarreta, Casillas, De Gea, Valdes, Reina and Canizares. But Germany you have Maier, Kahn, Lehmann, Neuer, MATS, Leno, Butt, Weidenfeller etc etc |

afrodoc2: Toldo was so underrated during his time. His era had the best hands for Italy and the competition was tough. 3 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 4:39pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
sleekdot: Let's not lie or steal i no too rate Zubizarreta like that. Historically one has to put Zamora and Ramallets but i never watched them. Arconada and Zubizarreta were okay. Casillas is the only one. Spain produces one good keeper at a time while Italy and Germany produce multiple good keepers at the same time which means the keepers end up cannibalizing each other's international career. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 4:44pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
Roland17: I was just saying it. Zoff and Albertosi were cannibalizing each other. The same way Clements and Shilton did for England. The ultimate cannibalization was Pagliuca cannibalizing Zenga only to be cannibalized by Peruzzi whose career was now cannibalized by a combination of Buffon and Toldo. The person that suffered the most was Marchegianni who was at best no 4 in Italy when he would have been no1 in most other countries and he was the only one who was never a starter in a tournament. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Roland17(m): 4:55pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
afrodoc2: You are absolutely right about it. The more difficult aspect of it was that they had such a long career in their prime, even the best Italian heads from Sacchi to Zoff to Trapattoni to Lippi.. None of them had it easy making goalkeeping decisions. Toldo was criminally cannibalized by a young Buffon whose reflexes was out of this world at that time. Don’t forget Abbiati was also in that mix and both goalies were dominant for their clubs. |

LostMyZeal:Modric scores, passes like Pirlo does, assists, has ball control, dribbles what exactly does Xavi do better than Pirlo or Modric is it play 1 million passes, or what exactly does iniesta do better is dancing with the ball so that messi can score. |

Roland17: Abbiati dey unstable so i won't place him on that level. Great one week, awful the next. He and Dida were exchanging no1 shirt like baton. Not that Dida was stable himself o. |

SyIvalord:and now grealish has increased his contract to like 5 more years at Aston Villa. That £80m fit no dey bargain again but £50 or £60m would have done the deal then |

timay:lol so he should have refused more pay so united can buy him cheaper and put him on their bench To him his value would only go up and anything that comes for will definitely value him and not bench him like VDB, Ighalo and the rest 3 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Roland17(m): 5:28pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
afrodoc2: Abbiati struggled with a lot of injuries, he was so unlucky with them and that affected his ability to hold down a number one. He was quite good and had a very good fist. I remember Dida’s howler against Leeds in the UCL.. I would tell you he was a good PK stopper! |

randomperson: Why was he not hitting the 40-50 goal marks steady in England as he was doing in Madrid, note, Cr7 role shifted from be a midfielder in 442 formation to a right wing forward RWF in his latter years in the United shirt, so spare me your long sermon about playin auxiliary foward or locomotive inverting forward, the facts still remain out of all the leagues Cr7 played in Laliga was the easiest for him in terms of goal scoring. His game to goal ratio solidify my argument, even after leaving the league in two years he his still the only player with the record highest hatricks, whilst playing there in just 9 years. As for playing with better players, i should be made to believe that, Van Nistelrooy, Rooney, Scholes, Giggs, Vidic, Evra, Berbatov, Ferdinard, Roy Keane, a team with the likes of Diego Forlan, Saha, Tevez, on the benchwere inferior, a team that won 3 epl on a roll, and a back to back Champions league finalist before leaving were filled inferior to Real Madrid team? You have no case! The Spanish Laliga is a league with lower quality in defence, were you can be scoring 40 goals per season for 6 years, without go slow or holdup. It maybe the best league (due to the Barca and Real factors), but it's never the most competitive league in the world. Even Ibramovic confessed to the competitiveness and rigor of the Ep when he had like 10 games goal drought in the league. @ your last statement, maybe cemented in Camp nou because outside there, even in his hometown he is just a one of Argentine good forward with nice stats which 60% are from friendlies, Barcelona club legend, i reckon but greatest ever, even Messi be angry at you, for such fallacious statement. Woe to Bartholomew, I'm eager for Messi to come and destroy the Epl

Unlimited22:Antoni Ramallets, Ricardo Zamora, Luis Arconada, Jose Angel Iriba, Paco Buyo and many others are all great Spanish Goalkeepers. Remove Valdez and Reina from your list, those ones are disgraces to Spanish goalkeepers. I agree that Germany may have an edge over Spain when it comes to goalkeepers though. |
