World Cup Qatar 2022

But not Harry Kane. Well maybe. I suppose it depends which penalty technique he employed.

I think Harry Kane was trying to secure an extra 2 points.

Yes, after Messi has retired the media will just w**k on about Mbappe

You would think listening the these pundits that it was a solo gam and not a team performance.

England topped the charts for progressive passes in Qatar prior to the France game.

Flat track bullies. Same old......

Fair enough. The fact that you can’t in any way argue your position makes me feel like it’s a foregone conclusion anyway.

Obvious response. I’ve shown I’m more than prepared to argue this one and I’m all for debate but I see little point if you see my opinion as wrong before I’ve even given it. That’s not debate, it’s something else.

Bald man. Are you fighting for a comb?

Messi the greatest of all time

 

[Followtheox1]

Messi the greatest of all time

He is certainly in the conversation that's for sure. Difficult given the changes in the game to compare generations.

 

[Foley]

Messi the greatest of all time

Why not?
I would have hom as the best of a time
Pele, Maradona, Messi and Ronaldo.
To me Messi is the best

Which Ronaldo are we talking here?

Pele before my time, Messi maybe more of a team player than the others?

 

[Foley]

Which Ronaldo are we talking here?

Christiano
The Brazilian one was good but nowhere near the best player of all time. He would struggle to get into the Top 30 in my view

 

[Paul Cannell]

Here's the best of British.

The Emir of Qatar doesn't look too impressed with Martinez' antics!

 

[Paul Cannell]

If the Emir wants that, he doesn't go to a Kentucky and ask.

Child.

 

[Big Ronaldo]

While Messi has delivered a world cup to Argentina, Maradona gifted two.
Pele also.
Messi is without doubt, one of the greatest in the history of the game but he is in good company.

 

[Scotchegg]

Maradona only won the World Cup once in 1986. Pele won it three times in '58, '62 and '70.

 

[Paul Cannell]

Maradona is the player.

Tsk.

Once you've made your mind up about something facts have no relevance.

 

[Scotchegg]

The only time I saw Pele play was in Escape to Victory! But Maradona is probably the best player I've seen in my life time, just an unreal talent that pretty much won the '86 World Cup alone. Ronaldo R9 was incredible in his peak, Bergkamp unbelievable at times, and Christiano Ronaldo has incredible stats but is too selfish for me. Messi is just behind Maradona for me, but still an incredible talent who was unplayable for several years and someone who also bring out the best in the players around him. However, if we're talking about teams then it's Brazil '82 or Oxford '86!!!
