Unpopular football opinions

[bunburyist]

It's seemingly very difficult for you though, what are you struggling to understand here?

 

[Skippa18]

Here's mine.

Most central midfielders are crap these days.

Either DM or AM now.

who gives a fuck just boss it and own it.

Pele is an overrated fraud.

Scored most of his goals against (literal) farmers.

I like Theo Walcott

While we're there, I didn't mind Aaron Ramsey or Dennis Bergkamp...

 

[r-u-s-x]

Man City & Chelsea's Titles and trophies are worthless 'cos they simply threw more money at making sure theywon them than the rest of football....

(and you can 'whatever the opposite of retrospectively' throw Newcastle into the mix in 5 years' time!)

There. I said it!

That's a given... Well it's how I judged it

There is still good in Sol Campbell, I can feel it.


Granted, it’s probably someone’s dick but still.

Ummmmmm.... Telling on you!

Hold on a minute. Did you really just tell the internet that you're feeling someone's dick inside Sol Campbell, and it's good?

I was going for more of spidey-sense/the force kinda feeling but suggest to go with your imagination

Because I can see the future of Ballon d’Or and it is Oliver Skipp

I think next year might be a stretch

 

[Bazali]

Yeah this is just wrong dude it sucks. It should have never been used for offsides ect only deliberate monumental errors of officiating. People referees make errors that's life.

VAR for Goal line disputes, penalties and possible red cards

Full stop

Yup but next season I think he will be one of our most influential players

Yeh; saw way too much 'tactical agony' being used to break up play last season.... It's getting more and more prevalent too.

Yup, more specifically to Spurs, there was a big uptick in just kicking the shit out of our players and getting away with it in the last 6-8 games of the season.

Liverpool, Southampton, Villa, Arse, Palace, and even Norwich were at it. Only Arse got punished by the refs. Villa with Cash, and Ashley Young especially just going out there to hurt someone.

Well it's the flipside to my earlier comments; but yeh..... Some really nasty shit being thrown in during that last half-dozen or so games.

He looks pretty average in La Liga/CL too tbh. Unlike say Romero where his talent was just undeniable, Pau Torres must be quite low key good, cos when I watched Villareal, my eyes were never drawn to him.

He's the average hyped spanish player. That guy that looks calm on the ball, had a good pass but does shit all. If Winks played in Spain he will be called the new Iniesta and be sold to United for 100 m quid just to be loaned every season until his contrat runs out.

My unpopular opinion is that every spanish player that can pass a ball properly will be hyped cause of the generation that won the WC. Now they seem to think the only important thing in the game is to pass the ball and control the possession, one of the most boring team to watch now.

I know Harry thinks otherwise, but Sandra probably would have missed that chance as well

 

[Legacy Lilywhite]

‘Stand up if you hate A*****’ is the chant the club and trust should be banning - from another age and fucking tinpot. Why even think about those twats unless we’re playing them.

I love going to places like Burnley, Stoke, Blackburn etc midweek on a cold Winter’s night. There’s something quite fascinating about these peculiar shit towns in the middle of nowhere. Can’t believe people still live there in the 2020s.

 

[Mrs Perryman]

It's funny Victim FC destroyed the Man City bus in the champions League afew years ago and everyone at the time was saying "this is what Liverpool's about"

Yet any slight injustice against them specifically and it's everybody else's fault

Imagine what would be said if a team celebrated their trophies on the anniversary of Hillsborough?

Yet nothing was said about them celebrating on the anniversary of the Heysel Stadium disaster which was their fans fault

Don't think you'll find this is an unpopular opinion among most football fans, apart from most of the media and the red scousers, of course.

It's called being working class. Most can't afford to leave even if they wanted to.

Exactly, it's all perspective. I see London as an absolute shithole. If I never visit again, it'll be too soon
