Arteta evidently disagrees.

Wingers before Ronaldo were cross merchants.

Motherfucking George Best crossing his way to 181 goals in 474 appearances at United.

For a second there I was wondering, why the hell Union were hiring Professor Big Shots. Also, I don't really expect a lot of people, if any, to get that reference.

Romeu with similar through passes per 90 as Kovacic, Isco, Ødegaard, and Musiala at a much higher passing accuracy rate, meanwhile Romeu is getting absolutely lambasted every game by my fellow fans.

Do you really think that Zizou is a top-five Real player in history? I'm genuinely flabbergasted by this as a Barça fan, with the likes of Raúl, Casillas, Pirri, Gento, Míchel, Hierro, Paco Gento, etc. around. You're a massive club with a massive history, so I really can't understand elevating someone like Zizou to the top five. He was in Madrid for five seasons where you lot won one league title with Zizou as the pièce de résistance of an insanely expensive project. For the record, when Zidane announced his retirement, this is what he said: 'I don’t want to start a third year knowing I won’t be able to do better than I’ve done in the past. I don’t want another year like this one, or even the one two years ago... it’s been two years now that I haven’t been playing like I want to.' Zidane was, in the bigger picture, a disappointment in Madrid. Even, and perhaps especially, to himself.

What? Real barely did anything in the years Zizou was there? He was there for five years as part of an insanely expensive project where he was basically the pièce de résistance, and not only did they only manage one league title (and one Champions League title), but they immediately bounced back after Zidane retired. It's some wild revisionist shit to claim Zizou a top-five legend in Real, and I'm saying this as a Barcelona fan.

Luis Monti in shambles.

To be fair, Pelé was very clearly against contraceptives, right up the Vatican's alley with that one.

How is this dude nearly 40? I mean, at some point surely he must mature? Right?
