He'll want to protect himself and hold something back which he'll be able to do in France. Definitely, I said that the other day. There's been at least 2 World Cups he's turned up at looking completely goosed (and he's now 34). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Thing is with Armstrong he'll take a while to get used to the league and get up to speed, probably not see much from him this season. Most on here will have written him off by 3 or 4 games but I do think he'll come good and be a premier league player in the coming years, just like what happened with Blackburn and the Championship; he just needs to find his confidence after constantly being told he's not good enough to make it at X level for Y club.

joeyt Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) He's never really performed anywhere other than under Tony Mowbray so it will be interesting to see how he gets on Edited August 10, 2021 by joeyt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) Just another good in Championshit no good in PL player ala Gayle, Mitrovic etc etc. Will get 6-8 goals. Edited August 10, 2021 by Beth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I will never understand why people think Leo Messi is 'better' than anyone else who plays the game. He was brought through at a team that has been one of the best in the world, he did not stay there because of his undying loyalty, he stayed there to win and get paid a fuck ton. Now he's going to get paid a fuck ton somewhere else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 A huge number of people loved Barcelona or wanted them to do well because of Messi, myself included but with the super league shite, and this debacle they’re going to get a hiding with any negative press going forwards. The amount of kids in Barca shirts is ridiculous but that era’s surely over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I think it also has to be viewed in the context of the game at the moment. Qatar owned PSG, flouting FFP to sign the best player in the world (who was forced out of his own club for financial reasons). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Can anybody honestly say with their hand on their heart that they'd have been as much as a nanosmidgen more excited about the move if he'd gone to Bayern Munich? Short of him signing for Atalanta, every single club he could ever realistically have signed for is much of a muchness to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I think it would've been a bit more fun if he'd gone to a not-quite-top-of-the-pile club in Europe. An Arsenal/Tottenham/Dortmund etc. But honestly, I don't think that would've been a good move for him if he's trying to keep his legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I loathe PSG more than any other club in the world by some distance. Would have liked to have seen him in the PL like, even though that would have meant it being Man City.

I wouldn't have been excited at him going to one of those clubs you allude to there, but I'd be a good deal happier just because I hate PSG the most.

SEMTEX Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Why do you loathe PSG? They're such a non entity to me that I just can't muster up any strong feelings.

Optimistic Nut Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 @Wullieyou’ve nailed it, like. Any of the ‘Super League’ level clubs (barring Spurs & Arsenal which would never have happened), the rest is 6 and two 3s. PSG, Bayern, Man U, Man C, Juve…meh.
