antohan replied to the thread Trump's tarrifs.Defined as 1 is the reason 0.95 becomes 0.25. And if the number is lower than 10%, 10%. And if you are so irrelevant they can't be arsed waste their time talking with you, 10%. Nothing scientific about it, just pure trolling.

antohan replied to the thread Trump's tarrifs.My 2p, stay out of the loop and spare yourself trying to make any sense of nonsensical stuff. Some of us unfortunately can't but we would love to.

antohan replied to the thread Post match vs Manchester City.First paragraph is. As far as the second goes, I reckon the rocket science part comes from the reliance of Amorim's 2-2-1 spine on the wingbacks stretching play. Agree it's quite common to see sides switch from 4-2-3-1 to 5-3-2 (I deliberately...

antohan replied to the thread Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances.Erm... yeah, I'd love to have a 25yo Casemiro instead. That said, I expect more from Man.u

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.Estudiantes were notoriously unsportmanlike. Bilardo (yes, the 86 Argie manager with the 90s contaminated water incident) used to have pins in his pocket which he used to prick forwards before set pieces. If anything, it should go some way to...

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.Yeah, I know that it wasn't as important. For a period in the 70s it wasn't even the EC winner playing it but the runner-up. Ajax and Bayern started that trend, which only stopped in 1980 when it became a single game in Tokyo instead of home and...

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.Fair point. I always felt from a technical standpoint BuLi was more accomplished and the football more free-flowing, but I largely had access to continental leagues. With English sides, I only got to see them in continental cups, or when they...

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.Yeah, agree to disagree, absolutely. Chicken and egg, right? That's how eventually you get to post-2006 Arsenal systematically targeting Top Four, qualifying to the CL every year, struggling to balance Europe and the Top 4 run in come...

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.I completely disagree with making it remotely relevant. I completely disagree with the notion that you can even attempt to qualify the assessment of a player removing the greatest tournament performance of all time. Take 1970 away from Pelé and...

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.The funny thing with all that raging debate is I agree with the @mertens base case (a handful of players were considered BPITW in the first half of the 80s) but completely disagree with all of his arguments :lol:

antohan replied to the thread Top 10 greatest players of all time.Of course he was, so was Prost. Slow and steady? Bloody hell. I hated Prost and loved Platini's Juve side, but it felt very much the same. It's not an analogy, it was my first hand gut feel on both rivalries.
