    Haaland needs quick ball and space to be effective. Possession ball is not a fit for him.

    Relax. No one said that. Just hype after a win. Im probaly the FIF member who rates Brandt the least. But that was the kind of game barella needs to have to be in the conversation. Why are you saw tight though?

    Nicolò Barella

    Which game was he dominant? Was he in the team of the tournament selections? By "bested" I mean out performed, in offense and defense. Rabiot almost always has the better game head-to-head. No one's belittling barella. My point is, he either hasn't shown up or perhaps been tested enough to...

    Kimmich, Valverde? You don't watch a lot outside of Barella/Inter do you? Koke is more a playmaker nowadays.

    I've had the pleasure of watching Bellingham ever since his transfer to Dortmund. He's a #8 to the bone. Check out his whoscored page, his versus videos on youtube while with dortmund. Not sure what point you're trying to make with these what ifs. End of the day Bellingham has performed at the...

    That's some bullshit.... Prime Gerrard (24-29 yrs) was better at almost every aspect of the game: goal scoring, vision, long range passing, tackling, box to box energy, aggression, leadership, setpieces/freekicks/penalties, versatility, tactical IQ. Or are you're trolling?

    Always a pleasure to kill off Bayern title chances and see their fans leave early in tears lol Consolation prize of sorts. And that traitor Hummels, first vs Milan now vs Bayern Was a great game for all involved. Even Terzi. Saddest thing is we couldn't do this last season.

    Valverde is the reason kroos gets to stroll around the pitch, spraying passes and dictate games. I wouldn't trust a temperamental Barella to in such a role. Simply put, Valverde is as versatile.and dynamic but also reliable and experienced in Europe. Also physical and aerial attributes. Barella...

    I disagreed. Because his linkup was non existent. And he wasn't tested at the highest level. Great yes, world class no. They are levels to this. You're over thinking it. Not trying to.come across as contrarian, merely a general wondering. Go ahead and list these areas/skillsets in which Barella...

    I don't think that Googles definition is sufficient enough. That would mean Acerbi, Toro are world class. Bruno Fernandes, Onana, Valverde too. Kobel and Brandt. There needs to be a distinction between performing vs Empoli and performing vs a Bayern calibre club in a UCL playoff game which...

    Rodri? A destroyer and playmaker all rolled in one. Flawless positioning, tackling and interceptions, ball control and possession/distrubtion passing range, mid range shooting. i think i already went over this. Which player did you want to go over in detail? Part of the problem is barella has...

    FDJ has played as CB and DMF but he's a natural number 6 and one of the best ball carriers in world football. Rest of the aforementioned are world class at something. What is Barella world class at?

    We said the same about Lukaku and Icardi. Again I ask, what is Barella world class at? Outside of running his ass off game.in and game out staying injury free, he's really not exceptional at anything.
