There was something familiar about the Czechs tonight. Lack of creativity, inept infront of goal, players doing alot of running without any end product...
It's like us without Suarez.
 
Kiss for Messi?

Thank god for the existence of Messi because as perfect as life is for Ronaldo you just know it ruins everything for him. He can't rest, can't appreciate what he has until he is the best. But unless something drastic happens that won't happen. People want Messi to be better even if it turns out that he isn't.

Hahahaha.
Good point.
Rich, Handsome, Talented.........2nd best.
 
The truth of the matter is that Messi would not be missing the chances that Ronaldo has been afforded so far in this tournament. For some reason, in my mind I cannot accept either Messi or Ronaldo as the two best players in the world at the moment - mainly because they play at club level in teams that are overloaded with other talent. Dare I say it - but imagine Suarez in the Barcalona team, or Steven Gerard in his prime playing for Real Madrid when they had Zidane. It seems that in this tournament - no matter how many times a really good club footballer with a high goalscoring record misses chances at this tournament - there is no error on his part, the commentry over Ronaldo's missed efforts was never a case of 'He should have scored that...', he is just brilliant for shooting at goal and missing it or having it saved by the goalkeeper.
 
I've been watching football for 31 years and anyone who casts doubts about Messi being world class, regardless of who he plays for, is as mad as a box of frogs. Imagine Suarez in the Barcelona team? He'd still be nowhere near Messi. The Argentinian is up there with Pele and Maradona.

You did read his username right?
😉
 
Yep, still love him. Fucking superstar.

Portugal would be like Ireland without him.

LOL, wouldn't go that far.

They'd undoubtedly struggle without Ronaldo, but they still have the likes of Pepe, Coentrao, Moutinho and Nani, players we'd love to have.
 
I'd rather have Charlie Adam than Ronaldo tbh.



If I needed to pick a partner in a pie eating contest.
 
That Moutinho is surely in line for a move to a bigger club than Porto? He's been running the Portugese midfield in these Euros.

His ball retention is excellent.
 
Isn't he the one Moyes has been after (but unable to afford) for the last 3 years at Everton?

Overrated. Wait and see how he does against Spain.
 
Everyone here seems to be wanking over Ronaldo.
How about Portugal's defence?
I think they've done extremely well.

I see that you have managed to work your dislike for Adam into the Czech vs Portugal thread.
Why did you wait for the 5th page? Soft spot for him today?
 
As I think Giles said, he does a lot of things great players do, but he does a lot of things a great player would never do.

It's the additional stuff he does which means most people will never regard him as highly as Messi, Maradona and Pele. When talking in that calibre you're talking about the complete package, and Ronaldo lets himself down by the way he carries on.
