Not in the knock outs though. He got one on the Round of 16 v the Aussies in one of them. Canât remember which.
Not exactly clutch.
Old, mate. Iâm bored, youâre boring me.
[QUOTE=âManuel Zelaya, post: 984623, member: 377â]Essentially the argument Rudi/Bomber/Totti is making is that unless you have a World Cup winners medal, you are not a great of the game. So in his world Alfredo di Stefano, Ferenc Puskas, Eusebio, Johann Cruyff, Zico, Michel Platini, Marco Van Basten, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi to name but a few are not greats of the game but the likes of Stephane Guivarcâh, Roque Junior, Cristian Zaccardo and Kleberson are greats.
Lets not forget this is the same bright spark who reckons hurling is a game of no skill, who rates Ciaran McKeever of Armagh currently the most inspirational Gaelic Footballer in the game, who approves and encourages the racial abusing of Mario Balotelli and Luis Suarez biting tendencies, who rates Alberto Costa, Michael Chang & Gaston Gaudia as tennis greats and more complete tennis players than Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras, John McEnroe & Roger Federer (none of whom are rated as tennis greats).
What youâre dealing with here is either an attention seeker of the highest order or if these views are genuinely held, a very strange individual.[/QUOTE]
Incorrect. The cyber scars Iâve left you with are presenting themselves in a very ugly manner.
Totti has 3 assists and a goal in 5 World Cup knockout games.
[QUOTE=âmyboyblue, post: 984650, member: 180â]People are merely trying to muddy the waters with the inclusion of Totti.
Put simply, Messi has shit the pot for my beloved Argentina at 3 World Cups now, despite being hailed as the greatest player in World Football. He strolled about all World Cup, barely breaking into a sprint. Now this is acceptable if you get shit done, but rarely was this the case, despite the protestations of the blind on here. Messi is a Cruyff, not a Diego. He will never be a Diego.[/QUOTE]
To be fair to Cruyff, he did score some big goals in big games against big opposition in the World Cup. Messi hasnât even done that.
I donât need a link it was the very next image on the TV, him walking up to the coin toss
One goal v Australia, was it even a penalty?
Stonewaller and a huge pressure kick emphatically dispatched by Totti.
Great players like Robbie Keane, Totti and Samaras showed their bottle by slotting home penalties in stoppage time in WC knock out games. #temperament
Meanwhile spoofers like @Manuel Zelaya regard penalty taking as a lottery.
So he walked away of his own accord. What a cuntbag.
There is a difference between being reserved and being a cuntbag
Yes, and he showed no signs of being reserved in that clip.
Penalty taking is a specialist skills in the game of football, which invariably only a handful of players on a team specialise in. To decide a drawn game and particularly a final on the competence of 5 players (and very often more) in this one specialist skill reduces it to a lottery. Its akin to deciding a hurling match by reducing it to an exercise in requiring players to take a 65 or deciding a cricket match by having all players including batsmen to bowl at the stumps.
If a final finishes level have a replay or failing that the match is a draw. Thatâs what they do in cricket and other more sensible sports.
Heâs not so reserved when he throws a strop over a team mate outperforming him.

Ah yes, the sensible sport where lads play for 5 days and end without a victor.
That would be the Italian blood in him
Next youâll be telling us Zlatan is a good player ⌠This thread is a farce.
