  • Naa I feel your evaluations are being skewed by the Ronaldomessification of goal scoring records. 1 in 3 is exactly the ratio of elite wide forward/wingers. Think Ribery, Robben, Hazard. Then you have outliers like Salah and Mane who are closer...
  • Ok you got me.Technically he scored 0.9594594 goals every 3 games. I just rounded it to 1 because I didn't feel like doing the forensic accounting you just made me do.
  • O yeah that is correct. I meant over the course of his career with us. As at that point, he'd played more as a winger than as an #9 making his 1 in 3 goal ratio more than respectable. His best goal scoring seasons however were when he was fit...
  • The Martial discourse will forever be filled with disingenuous takes due to recency bias. With his judgement without doubt being affected by the recent malaise of the club - which ironically Martial has been less part of. His detractors will...
  • Fact that you think he was brought in as a 1st team player (a 19y old from Portuguese league) makes me doubt any judgement you have on the player.. Also ots expected to have nuances instead of this all or nothing
  • We signed him as a 19y old for £20m... I don't know what's so terrible about that in this current transfer market. Name me a better fullback than Dalot who would also cost less than £20m? Or maybe you're annoyed he's steadily improving as a...
  • steve zizou replied to the thread Martial exit?.
    The revisionist history is mad. It's like how Martial has apparently been at the club for almost 10 years for the past 3 seasons. Strawman arguments everywhere
  • Sure, but optics aren't reality. And he did actually come to watch some of our games during that time. I think the whole thing is just salty fans who needed a scapegoat as they thought he was pulling a fast one. So they exaggerated what's...
  • I think he'd be a quality player for us. His speed alone opens up new tactical possibilities for ETH. https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/man-utd-fans-left-fuming-youtube-sensation-ishowspeed-fa-cup-semi-final-clash-coventry/blt3e98f4c3c83b98a8
  • Just because he's watching tennis every weekend doesn't mean he's not recovering from injury. Why do people think injured players must stay at home locked in a cryo chamber? Maybe he should have stuck around Carrington dishing out bibs in...
  • Far from it you being a jerk. I appreciate the insight. I'm merely speaking on the surface levels how these funding are distributed. I'm fully aware that FIFA doesn't fund everything but they do give some money out. Thos provided by governments...
  • True they do not pay every single country but Fifa gives all associations football development subsidies and I don't see how FIFA doesn't increase their budget to be in line with this annual tournament. Again it's up to each association how they...
  • The women already play a crazy amount of international games. The number of players with 100+ international caps is insane compared to the men. Clearly the appetite to play internationals is there as these women are pretty much playing glorified...
  • steve zizou replied to the thread Mohammed Kudus | Watch.
    Which is fine as Kudus is having a better season than pretty much any United forward right now. People only still comparing him Antony due the similarities in their careers. Same position, same club, same manager. When in fact it's a disservice...
  • steve zizou replied to the thread Mohammed Kudus | Watch.
    Boring dumb posts from you in the whole thread. At least Kudus is scoring.
