I'd absolutely love to see Van Dijk properly tested against Messi or Ronaldo at some point.

 

Wouldn’t really prove anything though. Still the best defender around at the moment for me, if he struggles against the two best players of the last 30 years I wouldn’t think less of him.

 

Well it would prove how good he is. :lol: It wasn't really because I want anything to be proven though really, I'd just like to see him actually tested by someone rather than just always looking comfortable.

 

Aye but struggling against the best two players for a generation wouldn’t make him any less of a world class defender. Those two have been battering the best for years. If he marked both out of the game we wouldn’t suddenly put him in their category but he’d still be in the elite centre-backs regardless.

 

I just want to see it, it's got nothing to do with what any of it means either way, is that okay? :lol:

Don't think Jonas was allowed to use his mask in the Prem. Can't remember if he got booked when he used it in the Champ/FA cup.

 

Anyway, the best Jonas celebration was vs West Ham

 

Aye, think his final mask outing was his winner against Blackburn in the cup when Ben Arfa scored that ridiculous goal.

They've been atrocious. Sarr in particular has been relentlessly thick with his decision making. HBA's their only chance really.

You know what - I’m gonna say it. Racism. Black player puts on a mask. “Gotta be careful, you got a yellow”. White player takes his shirt off, it’s remarked on but not like the way PEA was interviewed there. Like he was child who did something naughty. So much was made of that Demarai Grey thing for me. At the same time, it could be precedent. Feel like that players will stop doing it now all across the board.

Looks like the money is finally starting to show in the PL. Superclubs like Chelsea and Arsenal in the EL is a bit grim

 

Yet nobody outside the top 6 apart from Newcastle can get past the qualifying stage in the last few years.

This the first time a nation's had 6 teams through the quarters in European comps? (Guessing there may have been a 3 + 3 sometime)

Spain will have done it in the last few years probably

 

Aye. Tired of it. Please God can we end their domination.

Think it will begin to be taken more seriously by those teams now. None of the teams competing for 7th now are managed by PFM’s
