Activate Another Lever and Still Lose to a Madrid Remontada - The Small Teams Thread

Idk I never really saw anything all that special in Fati or some of the other hyped La Masia kids but Yamal just passed the eye test for me from very early on. I think we’d be rightfully excited if he was ours. In addition to the pace and acceleration he seems to have a very good final ball for his age.

Then again I thought Puig and Ilaix might be good prospects so I’m probably just bad at scouting their players lol.

 

The first tweet makes it sound like he was dancing and winding-up the Lille supporters for an extended period of time. He merely turned toward them for at most half a second.

Social media is dumb in general but especially for stuff like this. Trying to make it seem like someone is a provocateur when its the tweeter themselves that are provoking (in a sad and desperate manner).

 

Dibu Martinez is a clown. Another case of a guy who got lucky he knew how to play football. Otherwise, he would be selling drugs somewhere or already dead.

 

Lol that's bullshit. Zidane is not going anywhere near that dump.

 

United is a huge club with money. He has no obligation to win anything but to bring some peace to a turbulent club. Looks like a good spot for a coach in semi-retirement.

 

And have future coaching prospects at the top level like Moyes, Ole and Ten Hag? Not saying those managers didn't have their issues, but Manchester United needs to be burnt to the ground and built up again, and that's not a job Zidane wants. I can only imagine how entitled and toxic the likes of Rashford and co are at that club. Complete mess all round.

 

Nothing to see here, just Mats Hummels taking the piss out of the English Premier League sides in Europe

Vini reacted when he's subjected to monkey chants,. He won't care if people just mocked him like Dibu.

 

Tone-deaf as you always have been in this matter. Vini is not to blame for Spaniards making monkey chants in stadiums.

 

Been seeing a lot of negative reactions in social media to the English commentary hyping the EPL recently. I think everyone recognizes there are good teams there but the disrespect for clubs from other leagues seems to be getting some pushback finally.

 

Hmmm

everyone hates Dibu. Only people that like his douche bs are his own team’s fans

Dibu is also a keeper so we only get to see this when there are pks mostly. If he was a field player, my God he’d be unbearable and public enemy number one.


Another reason we hear more about Vini is because Vini is a MUCH MUCH MUIUCH bigger star

but make no doubt, Dibu truly is football’s biggest villain

 

Well I was kind of siding with you but for different reasons. Question why is why he doesn’t get the same treatment for his behavior as Vini

my answer is because he’s not an outfield player, plays for a somewhat small club, it’s not even one of the best in his position. Comparing apples and oranges, but people to hate his bs too.

 

I’m noticing this as well recently a lot more than before.

 

Dibu never complained about abuse though. That's kind of the thing that makes people mad about him.

This was your reply to Miami. Vini didn't complain about insults. He replied by dancing again to those who moaned about his celebration after the girl. It became an issue only after insults turned into racist slurs.
