Liverpool worst midfield? They have the most talented mind in the game in their midfield! His ball control, vission and footwork are second to none and he should have bolstered 'pool's midfield to a rating comparable to Barca.
ReplyDelete...talking about Joey
Are you drunk? Joey's "D" must taste like sweet nectar from heaven. Tell me about it Burnstein.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe how bad Italy has fallen off. World Cup winners to old, slow, and tired dinosaurs.
Well...I'll be changing the defaults.
No shite, you'll be "changing the defaults."
ReplyDeleteYou've played Cassano out wide for several seasons, which is sacrilege for a myriad of reasons.
