He could play in any league, for any team and any country. Hed get in to most first 11s in world football. Theres world class but then for me theres the elite, with your Haalands, Mbappes and Kachungas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Feelgood Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 The media, as they do, have decided all that shite would have been avoided if Foden had been on ... even as a sub. This will be the case until he's tried & is anonymous. Then the meeja will find another simplistic solution. It'll be Madison next I suppose. Meanwhile "World Class' Bellingham, at 19, is suddenly last night hoiked & no fuss at all. Will anyone dare suggest Kane needs a rest ? Or Mount, less unthinkable but still would challenge Southgate. Or point out that Sterling hasn't really played well for two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many would say Gazza was world class before the WC, he then had a good WC and everyone was talking about him as the best in the world. At club level he didn’t really do that much. But a good WC in 90 and euros in 96 and many have him as the best English player ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Internationally, Al Hilal have won a record eight Asian Football Confederation trophies – the AFC Champions League in 1991, 2000, 2019 and 2021, the Asian Cup Winners Cup in 1997 and 2002, and the Asian Super Cup in 1997, 2000. In September 2009, Al Hilal was awarded Best Asian Club of the 20th Century by the IFFHS." Isn’t that a takeaway on Chorley Old Road? 2 hours ago, leigh white said: Could have been worse and called a jam tart.😀 Careful now 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
