General Football 23/24

Ffs - C Ronaldo did 8 in a row, Messi did 10

Was going to say, surely those two have done it. They were both scoring about 60 a season for a few years there

Luis Alberto number 99

At the weekend Sid Lowe called Iago Aspas Spain's best player. Maybe the English game just didn't suit them, or perhaps our scouting back then was good but Brendan made a balls of it.

I always thought Alberto looked an excellent prospect when he was here, he just looked a bit overawed at times, or used to the pace of the league and got binned way too early IMO. Maybe he would never have gotten to grips with the league, but as he's since shown in Italy he's a quality player.

What am I missing with Rashford? He's been brilliant as a political activist. But offered very little as a footballer during the last 18 months.

As has been said above that list is subjective bollocks

I also think he is also vastly overrated

Classy as hell in his actions off the pitch, but underwhelming thankfully on the pitch although I suspect the management/coaching staff at the Mancs during his time there have played a part in him not being maybe where he should be on the pitch.

Then again he is only 23 so he still has time to jump up a level or two. Am just thinking of how many of us, myself included, might have seen Jordan Henderson as being overrathed at 23.

He's direct and pacey and under a coach like Klopp I think he'd be amazing...but will they sell to us, I doubt it!?

[Exiled_red]

To be fair he is averaging a goal every other game last season and this so he isn't doing too badly. A couple of years ago he looked a very good and direct player who was running with the ball and looked really promising. More recently it seems that he is doing less of that but is getting more goals, not sure if that's a result of the way Man Utd are trying to develop him, opposition teams becoming more familiar with his game or some tiredness or burnout due to playing alot more particularly in the current densely packed season. I think it's going to be difficult to judge anyone too much in the current situation to be honest. He still looks a decent player and his numbers suggest better than that, but he doesn't seem to have the spark that he had a while back, but to be honest I don't want Man Utd much.

Andy Robertson has fallen 11 places to 34 in this years list.

He's been absolute **** this year, obviously

Buzzo is going to go tonto when he sees that

[Charly]

I think he had a couple of "average" games after the covid break. Must be that?

Not heard of 'gone tonto' before, but urban dictionary confirms its a thing
