How do you feel when your team loses a major cup final/competition
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
I'd much rather lose all Pre-season games because at least I know it means nothing and won't in any affect how the season turns out. -
Do you think VAR is helping to correct the mistakes of referees in matches?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
I'm just glad that this is coming out now because Man United fans used to say other fans were conspiring. -
Which European top 5 club is having the best transfer window?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
I'll have to disagree here - some people just adapt to the Premier League pretty quickly like Alexis Sanchez for example while others need a season or more to really get up to speed in the EPL. -
Do you think Leo Messi will struggle in PL football?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
The problem is the modern game requires attackers to put far more effort into defending and Messi has lost a good portion of his pace and stamina so that's why I say it'd be tricky for him to find a team that'll at least lighten his defensive responsibilities besides PSG at the moment. -
The video I showed previously is a sunday league player vs a professional women's football team. A sunday league player is the average joe who comes out of his house to play football on Sundays. I can show you just as many videos of women being absolutely garbage at football. Furthermore, most women aren't in sports anyways so they won't watch it either. Majority of sports watchers are males so that's who sponsorship will cater to, whoever brings in the most money and provide the most entertainment. Women's football and women's sport in general lacks the aggression and physicality of male sports and that is what makes it entertaining.

It's true, even seeing your team lose in Preseason hurts and mind you, Preseason doesn't really mean anything other than players gaining fitness. -

It was pretty obvious back then as well with Alex Ferguson - he used to intimidate the refs all the time during Premier League matches and was constantly in their ear so that he could get calls that favored Man United. -

killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
The one thing I'll say about Messi is that he's more of a team player though so he could probably slot into a attacking midfield role if the team would cover his defensive duties. The tricky part is to find teams that will do that nowadays. -

So far, Nunez does seem to be feeling the pressure that comes with the price tag Liverpool paid for him. Hopefully, he regains his confidence and his nerves settles and he does well. Watching him in preseason so far, I've seen glimpses of his true ability but he seems very nervous though. -
Do you think money can buy you quality team that can win you everything?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
The one thing I've seen Arsenal do well in recent windows is try to agree terms with the player before putting in a bid so that they absolutely know the player wants to come or is open to coming. Rather than putting in a bid, have the club accept it but the player has no desire to move there and rejects the transfer wasting precious time and effort. -
The significant gap in terms of talent and skill is the reason. Put some lower league player to play against a top woman's team and he'll embarass them. Think I'm being sexist? Just take a look for yourself: In addition to that, it's just all around less entertaining and way less physical and fast-paced as men's football. The more skilled and entertaining players bring in the money - simple as.

Cast your vote, which nation will lift world cup 2022 in Qatar?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
France and Brazil are my pick just for the sheer amount of talent in both teams. Germany are currently rebuilding and they're a bit hit and miss at the moment, the Netherlands are also wildly inconsistent. Belgium seem to fall apart if De Bruyne doesn't play or have a great match. Spain is lacking firepower upfront - the only other team that may stand a chance of upsetting Brazil and France in my opinion is Portugal and they also have a team full of amazing talent and are no longer as reliant on Ronaldo as they used to be. -
I like the look of France so far but it's hard to tell. That being said, I honestly don't watch it all that much because the amateurish mistakes I see from some of the players makes me lose interest.

De Ligt From Juventus to Bayern - 68m which will be confimed soon. To be fair, I think this is a very good transfer and even though I feel like De Ligt has largely underperformed during his time at Juventus, so have many other talented players who've gone there in recent years. Oleksandr Zinchenko From Manchester City to Arsenal - 30m which will also be confirmed soon. This has to be the best bargain deal of the summer. He's one of the best left back in the EPL, an upgrade on Tierney (who's a pretty good left back himself) and will provide them with leadership and mentality.

Will Neymar Jr ever lay his hands on the balloon d'or trophy anytime soon?
killamch89 replied to Justin11's topic in Sports
Nope - not at all. He's injury prone, up in age and although he is talented, he lacks the discipline required to ever be considered a Ballon D'or winner. When you look at players like Ronaldo, Messi and Benzema and how strictly they train and diet, you come to realize why Neymar will never get there. -
