ads Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I remember even on PES 2008, former Inter players Emre and Martins were ridiculously overrated in the Newcastle team. The best team on that game was Nigeria, they were fucking incredible. I used to play 4-2-4 just so I could fit Martins, Kanu, Yakubu and Uche in the side because they were all far too good to leave out. Tijani Babangida back in the day. VRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM. Class.

Tooj Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Ronaldinho was actually good at Milan, especially in his second season. Ridicilous that he didn't go to South Africa. He really wasn't man. Trust me, he was a point machine but he had changed his game far too much and was slowing down play too much for Dunga's tactics. However I do agree that he, Ganso and Neymar should've gone. Those three would've brought something needed when going bad. Problem in 2010 was fact we didn't have one player off the bench that could make a difference. A bit like this year. Not one offensive player that could come off the bench and change the game. Fuck's happened to Ganso btw man? Did he just believe his own hype too much?

Still capable of the odd magic moment in the Brazilian league but he won't make it out of that league. Lost the little pace he had which means he's a non-dynamic number 10. But like Ronaldinho nowadays. Capable of magic but not good enough outside of South America. Real shame because IMO he had bigger things ahead of him than Neymar, was absolutely magic when he started being able to pick out passes from absolutely nothing.

Nobody Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Thing that sticks out with Torres is that he keeps trying, keep making decent career moves and keep wanting to do well. Can't really say that about the Brazilians, they just stop giving a fuck once their bank account fills up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 In patches Torres has looked good but just 'unfortunate' in front of goal. Occasionally he's magic like against Man City for Chelsea or that goal he scored for Milan (...the only one). 90% of the time he looks crap though.

Minhosa Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Michael Ricketts was never not shit. The man was a legend. He scored 15 goals by February in his debut season in the premier league.

It's kind of like whenever Pardew won a game. HE'S TURNED IT AROUND! Wait, that's not a great result. Ah, another one. Oops, and again.
