Apart from those who are at least well into their fifties, it’s hard to imagine we’ll ever feel what those German fans are feeling. They’ve now won it four times and have made the final every decade since the 1950s.
Pundits make too much of the World Cup. Messi had a poor game granted, but teams change, and one man doesn't make a team. A players ability isn't judged on what trophies they've lifted. Messi is the best footballer I've ever seen in nearly a quarter of a century, that's enough for me to class him as one of the best ever.
Noticed Neymar was in his full kit on the bench last night. I was expecting to see the John Terry comparisons.
Spot ****ing on. Argentina are average, same as a few other teams who went far in this WC. There's only really Germany who played particularly well. You can't expect Messi to carry the whole side, even if Mascherano has been good.
I watched ITV, just saw a pic of him in the paper. I thought he was going to QPR. Looks like he starts as cabin crew for Easy Jet on Monday.
One thing - why must you have to win the WC to be considered one of the all time greats? Cruyff Puskas Di Stefano Best Zico Platini Maldini Best Baggio Eusebio Van Basten Yashin The list goes on.
Genau so. But, are there any ropey WAGS these days? They're all ridiculously mint down to Sunday League level. Things have come a long way since the 'childhood sweethearts' the class of the 80s were lumbered with.
