Oh man Dalbert! He played for us for a couple of seasons when he was younger. He was quite promising. We sold him to Nice, no idea he had moved into Italian football.
Also, god damn Italy. The fuck is happening down there.
Spain, Portugal and Holland have that weird ass thing were they have a lot of candy etc that has racist imagery.
Then you have France that has that weird thing with skin colour.
Add that to the rise of racism all over Europe, something needs to be done.

Mexico has the same problem. We have that racist Memin Pinquin comic.
Bernardo Silva is a racist aswell https://www.redcafe.net/threads/what-is-up-with-bernardo-silva.450696/
Edit: didn't see Beefy had already posted. Disgusting behavior. Wonder if Pep will be forced to react.

Mourinho walking out on the improv-time filler was even better lol
Mou don't play, FIFA should know that at this point lmao
I know right? Kinda ridiculous. Half of the Spurs squad was better overall last season.
Why don't they just call it "we give awards to dudes from Real and Barca, plus a couple guys in other championships to look fair". What the fuck.
the UEFAlona mafia is beyond a joke at this point 😂
fuck liverpool to their core, but even i can admit it should've been van djik

Only agree 100% with the keeper's selection.
What a joke lmao.
I'd replace Ramos and Marcelo with Alexander-Arnold and Dani Alves (mostly for his Brazil showings tbh) in the backline.
I'd replace Hazard and Modric with Bernardo Silva and Kanté in the midfield.
I'd replace Mbappe (he made a big mistake in going to/staying at PSG, his progression has stopped IMO) with Mané or Sterling (happy with either).
Bloody geoblocking. Hate that shit.
Thankfully I watched it live and yes, it was a pretty great speech.
It's not that he is a joke, no one is questioning his ability or worth.
But for his own standards it was a fairly soft season for him (along with a poor-ish Copa America and poor start of the season in the few minutes he has played so far). Both VVD and Ronaldo won more trophies or more important trophies (CL) and were, IMO, far more consistent at the club and national team levels.
It's between VVD and Messi. I've said it before but I'd be okay with either winning these awards.
Yeah, seriously, look at those stats. Messi is a perfectly deserving winner. I like Van Dijk and wouldn't have had a problem winning it, but scoring 50 goals while being your team's main creator should be appreciated.
I think Ronaldo's and Messi's historic, sustained goalscoring excellence makes people overlook just how valuable to score this frequently.
Somehow this is controversial here, lmfao. Those are not normal numbers for any player, ever.
Someone said it best when they said that Messi did what Messi always did and that is be absolutely fantastic, but he did not elevate the team to any new heights. Their ultimate goal was not achieved and he did not achieve anything for his country.
Both Virgil and Ronaldo achieved massively for club and country.
Stats are one thing, accomplishments is another. Van dijk put up insane stats while taking both his club and country to new heights.
He was the deserved winner.
But hey, kinda glad Messi won this, I doubt he is going to win the Balon dor now.

I think what sucks here is that similar "impactful" numbers cannot possibly be had for a defender, and therefore Van Dijk never had a chance against Messi or Ronaldo, although arguable he was more impactful leading Liverpool defensively to win the champs league. In the end, Messi failed to win the champs league, copa America and copa del Rey.
Also, as a huge Real Madrid fan, even I find it laughable Modric, ramos and Marcelo made that best XI list. What a joke, they were terrible last year.
Yeah, it was quite a miracle that Cannavaro won the Ballon d'Or in 2006. Well, he won the World Cup but as a defender, it's a huge achievement which probably won't be replicated in a very long time.
Nice! I'm seeing Barcelona tonight and Madrid tomorrow night! Just got to Heathrow connection from Arizona.
Barça at home right? Low to no chance of any banter then lol
I don't get it, if NB can match the deal why should Liverpool be rejecting it? What's so great about Nike that they wanna run into there arms.
Marketing. Certain brands have more appeal/emotional impact than others, Nike and Adidas are among them. Liverpool want a piece of that pie as well, as it would likely lead to an increase in shirts sales (and other material as well) even if the designs/quality are similar or worse.
It doesn't make sense but it is what it is.
I legit never knew that there's a sports brand called New Balance. TIL I guess.
