It's bizarre seeing these goals while I'm reading his book...

RACIST!!!! :rndh:

No worse than Juve defenders against Fiorentina, however.

He timed it well, but Bruno was not paying attention, clearly.

Will come in handy. He did exceptionally well. He just lacked a supporting cast.

Yes and no. Yes because we like seeing big players on the big stage. No because one individual doesn't overcome the dynamic of a team. If your team sucks, I don't give a rat's ass about how good you are as a player: you don't deserve to be there.

He's big in friendlies against England though. :andyandbarcelona:

And you can understand it. Which ironically suggests that someone like a Milan Baros, who excelled at Euro 2004, has achieved more for his NT on an international stage than Messi. :shifty:

The problem is this tendency to pretend that football isn't a team sport. If you look at the impact players in most Euro and WC tournaments, they are never the players who get the product endorsements for Nike, Adidas commercials, etc. And yet everyone builds up the expectation that these...

Only recently. Ronaldo didn't score for the Portugal NT for two whole years until finally netting in the 7-0 demolishing of North Korea in the WC2010 group stages, for example. And yet then, as now, people talked about him as he would single-handedly qualify Portugal or not. In the end, he...

Isn't the crying bigger in losing the final than before he even makes it to the big dance? Have you even thought through this, cowboy?

As fake eBay jerseys for 8-year-olds, yeah. ;) But I hate it when people identify the Portugal NT as Ronaldo. He's in awesome form now, but he's been a major underperformer for the NT in recent years. Nani has done far more to get the team into the WC or Euro finals in recent years. If you're...

You people who see this match as Zlatan vs Ronaldo are just as retarded as all the sports journalists who keep trying to convince us that this sport isn't a team sport, but rather between individuals who can pitch products. :andyandbarcelona:

Zlatan vs 10-man St. Etienne. :disagree: Just shows you how the Tuz adores ya one day and ignores ya the next.

He's the next Drogba. :P

Your answer is to print more money. It is as naively childish as it is fiscally irresponsible. This is Juventus, not Greece.

Awesome. I can't wait for our bankruptcy declaration in 2015 so we can come back to Serie C1 as Juventus Soccer.

Let me see where we can find a check to cover his €16 million/year salary... Oh, wait, here's a drawer full of them to hand out. :shifty:

Portugal always sucks wind in the qualifiers. The last time they won their qualifier group, I think Salazar was still dictator. They're kind of like the anti-Netherlands that way, who manages to cruise through quals with an 8-0 average scoreline. But everytime the two meet in the finals, the...

:sergio: The Tuz: let's pile on with 40 posts in a dead thread when a guy scores a goal or two and ignore it completely the rest of the time.
