as much as I want to agree, Casillas was Spain's captain during their 2008-2012 run 🤷
La selección española iba de ridículo en ridículo hasta que decidieron mandar a tomar por culo a Raúl González y enfocarla más al Barça. Ahí llegaron un Mundial y dos Eurocopas.
Luego Ramos fue capitán y volvieron los ridículos hasta que se volvió a enfocar en el Barça. Una vez es casualidad, dos ya es un patrón.
keep cooking that homelander, Mr. Jorge Jesus ❤️
🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Jorge Jesus responds to calls for him to APOLOGIZE following Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure:
“Apologize for WHAT? To whom and why? I take responsibility for my decision and what happened, but apologize for what? It’s ABSURD.”
“I am the coach. I call up WHOEVER I want. I don’t ask anyone’s opinion on who I select or who plays.”
“As national team coach, there are things that are NON-NEGOTIABLE. I couldn’t be any clearer.”
spot on, Frenkie coming back will be excellent for us FOR THIS ASPECT
NOT for coming back straight to the XI by dropping either Pedri/Rodri or changing the formation to 3 men midfield while sacrificing Fermin/Olmo
I see a lot of Culers hating on either Pedri or Frenkie, but with Frenkie coming back soon, Pedri can get more rest and stay fresher. Ideally, they push each other and both get even better. It’s a win-win situation for us.
Personally, I prefer Pedri and think he’ll start in the biggest games, as I believe Flick prefers him too. But I still rate Frenkie, and he can have a big impact whether he starts or comes off the bench. At the end of the day, I just want what’s best for the team, so whoever is in better form should start. Having both is just a luxury.
Do you have a preference?
if he's not ready for Getafe, then I don't want to talk about him being ready for PSG or Madrid lol
besides, Getafe in Camp Nou is very different than Getafe in their home
Spain literally faced only European teams from R32 to semi final? 😭😭
group stage I can give you the teams were crap, so did Argentina in final, but the rest wdym
Messi haters have no brain at all man
Spain literally conceded just 1 goal across 8 entire games to win the World Cup, yet they’ve already conceded 4 goals in just 3 Nations League matches. That is exactly what happens when a team is forced to face high-quality opposition on a consistent basis.
Messi fans love to cry that the Nations League is just a "friendly" tournament, mostly because they know it is objectively harder to win than a Copa America.
When you realize the sheer tactical difficulty of European international football, you understand that Cristiano Ronaldo winning the Euros with Portugal was an absolute miracle.
That will forever remain a far bigger achievement than Messi winning the World Cup.
I admit it he's such a nice guy, hopefully he can recover to his best
but it's been 12 months since his last good performance man, he should take this seriously

"after being left out by Koeman" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 why does this guy always do something stupid man
🚨🇳🇱 Joey Veerman has quietly been one of the BEST MIDFIELDERS this season:
• Immediately becoming a key piece of Borussia Dortmund’s midfield, with BVB starting the Bundesliga season with 4 WINS from 4.
• His biggest strength is exactly what elite possession teams need: Tempo, vision and progressive passing.
• After being left out by Ronald Koeman, Xavi Hernández immediately brought him BACK into the Netherlands squad.
• Against Germany, Veerman came on and impressed enough for Xavi to specifically single him out: “In the second half it was mainly Joey, who played very well..."
• After his game vs. Germany, Veerman became Netherlands' MOST IMPORTANT asset in the XI for Xavi, becoming a starter.
• One of those midfielders who makes the game look EASY, always scanning, always finding the next pass, always one step ahead.
THE DUTCH RODRI. 🇳🇱✨
maybe Xabi Alonso is just not a very good coach after all

But in all honesty, what did Cristiano Ronaldo actually do to deserve all the hate he’s getting right now?
I genuinely want a heart-to-heart conversation with smart football fans.
Forget the fan wars for a moment. Forget Messi vs Ronaldo.
What exactly has Ronaldo done that makes people treat him with this much hatred?
let the man rest in peace, what a shameless bunch
The moment Diogo Jota died was the moment I knew Ronaldo was never going to win a trophy again.
Jota genuinely loved Ronaldo and saw him as his idol. He was one of the few Portuguese players who truly had that connection with him.
Bruno Fernandes and Vitinha hate him, and it’s honestly too obvious at this point. 💔🇵🇹
