Whether you like it or not we are one of the biggest clubs in the world and hence our ambition should always be to not play second fiddle to anyone. That's how the Madrids and the Barcas have dominated for years. If we don't have any ambition and we keep thinking about where we came from, we will settle for less. We have worked incredibly hard the last ten years to get where we are and I am proud of that but there should be no easing off now. That's what defines a great club and we are one now.

Now some posters are a bit too negative for my liking but they are certainly not "spoiled fucking cunts" like you say, It's just that our expectations are incredibly high these days and that's why they don't want to settle for anything. 2nd is not good enough for us. That's how I see it. It doesn't matter what days in the 60s or 70s you have seen but they have changed. Maybe you are happy that we have come a long way and we shouldn't complain, but others might feel different. The above doesn't apply to the lurking rags and dippers ofcourse.

There are lots of spoiled fucking cunts in here, no offence but there are. Every fucking thing they don’t like becomes a huge issue. I like the way our club is run, and fucking hell I have seen some useless fucking cunts running it. My namesake being the worst

One of our most under rated players

To be fair to people not rating Torres as more than a squad/backup option I will say this -

None of us have seen that much of him. He only played a handful of games for Valencia.

So yes if you dig out a few compilations or watched a few Valencia games when we were linked or read up on how highly rated he was, then you can start getting excited.

But a lot of people just don't care enough to do all that or don't have the time or whatever.

He is essentially an unknown 20 yead old who has zero international reputation for the casual fan.

But so was Sané.

Usually unknowns don't debut for their country.
Analysts of the game in Spain have rated him highly for a while.
Bluemoon posters who have never seen him play are not the best judge of whether pep sees him as a starter or not.

A lot of players are unknown internationally before their international debuts. A lot of people in this country won't know much about Kalvin Phillips, let alone people in Spain, France, Germany etc.

The other 2 sentences are completely irrelevant to my post and suggest you didn't read it.

Can't help but feel that we're sleeping on this one. Has the potential to be a huge issue all season long.

 

[Gumzy97]

Meniscus injuries are really bad... hope its not like this , this season. Otherwise we do need a striker

 

[leo_city]

Hopefully Kun recovers well. We need him back ASAP

 

[abu13]

We need to be all over this, drive them into the ground price wise as they are desperate to sell.

String them along for 10 days and then fuck them off.

At least your uncle Peter was a city fan unlike most of the idiots on here

Yes he was, although he was another one we could have done without. He thought he was the club, in fact even bigger than it

 

[leo_city]

The circus at Barcelona continues.



Setien only got a notice of dismissal yesterday (despite being fired in August) and without any settlement. He is now going to court because him and his team were mistreated and fired illegally.

Signatures for Bartomeu's removal have also crossed 20K I think.

No I did read it., that is why I replied.
It was wrong You said "none of us have seen much of him"
34 Matches for Valencia,Last season. I saw enough.

His postional sense is already of the quality pep desires, and demands work rate is good. The frustrations that pep had with Sane , he will not have with this guy.
If you haven't seen him , then yes as a casual fan, I accept that you don't know the intricacies of his attributes.
Anyway I am sure that you will enjoy learning about his game.

 

[Centurions]

I bet you did bother though

Didn’t you

No, I really didn't. Don't have the energy for nonsense.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

No, I really didn't. Don't have the energy for nonsense.

But you replied to this

 

[Centurions]

But you replied to this

Yours wasn't total nonsense and I thought deserved some sort of response.

Anyone seen the news about Galatasaray being in talks with Fernandinho? I pray that happens. I just don't see any use in keeping Fernandinho for another year. And it would free another foreign spot for another signing.

‘I pray that happens’ FFS. Pathetic.

I've seen him play at least 12 matches, and I've seen enough to believe he's gonna be a YPOTY contender.

12 matches is not much. I don't believe for one second you watched 34 matches (no one does), so you're lying if you are claiming to see a lot of him playing as well. If you're going to claim you watched every single Valencia game then feel free, I don't think anyone will believe it.


The entire point of my post which you missed spectacularly was that I can understand why people who don't spend their Sunday evenings watching La Liga re runs from the week gone by like I do, or don't read statistical blogs about earmarking emerging talent, or don't listen to a few Spanish football podcasts religious haven't got much reason to think he's going to be a world class player. Because I know that other people don't have time for that.
