Das ist wahrscheinlich der beste Artikel, den ich jemals über Fußball gelesen habe! Wahnsinn, einfach.

@Linahuaa It not exactly sucks, but as long you like Beatles, it‘s good anyway. A Hard Days Night is of course a masterpiece of an album as well.

Modern music somehow makes me depressed because it sounds like it's made by depressed people who always sing about depressing things. I love early Beatles stuff because it's usually in major key, fast tempo, with ample youthfulness, and simple lyrics full of positivity eg "Holding your hand makes me high yeah yeah" "I wanna hold you tight yeah yeah" or "She loves you yeah yeah" Man, 60s-90s West was sooo full of optimism when you think about it... My favourite pop album is A Hard Day's Night btw, cuz I'm hipster. Sgt Pepper sucks.

@MehmetMars7 Fischers 6-0, 6-0 streaks were in candidate matches, which had the same purpose, but were a different format.

Is this the second best Candidates performance so far after Bobby Fischer's legendary sweep?

@FCB_Argentine Is this statement not more of a testiment, that Messi is so good that in fact others have to adapt to him - which is not easy. Especially, if you have an ego and an Individualistic (and flawed) approach to football like many worldclass Players do?

He only played 3 games for PSG before Messi came btw, he left Pochettino that created the system and put all the blames on Messi what a clown

@Dom_L_ @Slackonbothsydz Maybe, but why does the reception of a player always seem to be dependent on the perception of the people and not soley on his quality in an analytical sense?

@Slackonbothsydz He just had a very unusual type and style of play. They way he ran, the way he dribbled, etc. It just made it easier not to see him as a super technical player.

Why isn't Romario spoken about as much as R9, Ronaldinho or even Neymar?

@fcb_mehr Why weren't you able to watch him?

Wasn't privileged enough to watch this monster but I can safely say after watching several comps of his performances that Kimmich is far away from this level man. Basti is capable of being so tidy on the ball and simultaneously possesses that aggression to win the ball back.

@Jon__snow____ @kdnotfound_ @Janoff_14 @gutsy_gambit I've read it, no worry. There is no point to both - the original statement and your post.

@Melkor91 @kdnotfound_ @Janoff_14 @gutsy_gambit Did i claim it as hot though? You should have to take a look at the post, because the period itself is mentioned in it

To reach 2800 he needs 12/14. I think I have said before that nobody's crossing 2810 for at least the next 4-5 yrs, not even a Carlsen reincarnate. It is ~2760ish which is equivalent to the 2800 of the past decade.

@Jon__snow____ @kdnotfound_ @Janoff_14 @gutsy_gambit It's not really a hot take to say something "may happen" in 5 years, is it?

@kdnotfound_ @Janoff_14 @gutsy_gambit In next 4-5 years, its more likely that nodirbek reach 2800 than he is not I am not talking about he will reach it within 2 months or anything

@fendii_30 In a way Messi is (!) a mythical figure.

Players really talk about Messi like a mythical figure. Bro is MJ and Bron of football in one, no athlete reaching this level of aura

@FCB_Guardian @akwesiwalker1 @AlbicelesteTalk @MalikBentalha But those are serious topics. He should be interested to find out the truth.

@akwesiwalker1 @Melkor91 @AlbicelesteTalk @MalikBentalha Better click bait title “Mbappe thinks Neymar is better than Messi”

Kylian Mbappé, Aurélien Tchouaméni, and Achraf Hakimi in awe while talking about Lionel Messi… 🐐 🎥 @MalikBentalha

@akwesiwalker1 @AlbicelesteTalk @MalikBentalha But why wanted the guy this?

@Melkor91 @AlbicelesteTalk @MalikBentalha The guy wanted him to say that but as we all know that mbappe guy is smart ass kid damn smart

@BCNOgi The most interesting thing about KP Boatengs discussions of Messi is that he perfectly understands that Messi can't be compared to any other footballer. But he still prefers C. Ronaldo (or Ronaldinho) to Messi, because Messi is such an outlier. This is respectable.

This reminds me of the podcast KP Boateng did with Rio. I remember him saying that whenever Messi missed a shot in training they thought something was wrong with him, like he had the flu or something looool. Listening to these stories warm my heart so much man.

@ney2maa When it comes to football he may possesses indeed something, which is not entirely human.

Messi is deadass the most respected and admired athlete ever. he has pro players and legendary managers talk about him like he’s actually not a human being lol

@kclerve @BarcaWorldwide Of course not.

@BarcaWorldwide So he’s the best technically. Technically doesn’t mean to do fancy skills

🚨| Is Messi technically the best? Kylian Mbappé: He's not like Neymar technically, but he does everything right. I'll tell you a story. We were doing a finishing drill in Paris, and me and Neymar were among the best. Then after Messi arrived, we divided into 10 groups. Me and Neymar scored 6 or 7 goals. But Messi took 9 shots and scored every single one of them in exactly the same way.😂

@TouchlineX That's the point. Messi mastered the fundamentals of the game to a degree no other human has ever and he uses them with perfect decion-making and rationality. He doesn't need tricks, he doesn't need to be flashy, he never does anything without purpose in football.

🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Mbappé talking about Messi and Neymar: "Lionel Messi? He is ridiculous. technically wise, he is not the same as Neymar. Because Messi does EVERYTHING well, in fact, I will tell you a story... We were doing a finishing drill, Neymar and me were doing the best, we scored 6 or 7. Then he [Messi] shows up and took 9 shots, scoring all 9 EXACTLY THE SAME WAY."

Der genuin ideen- und begriffshistorische Blickwinkel auf den ‚Liberalismus‘ hängt davon ab, diesen erstens als bürgerliche Ideologie zu verstehen, die im 17. Jh. beschleunigt an Macht gewinnt und sich im 19. Jh. gesellschaftlich vollendet – und zweitens die Geschichte des …

@handleym99 @tim_cook @ogawa_tter @PaulMcCartney Maybe you‘re right about the late 80s or 90s band as a better symbolic choice. Seems reasonable. But the idea that the significance of The Beatles has more to do with „boomer sentiment“ and less with their quality is highly debatable. At least much more than you make it look.

That’s peak Boomer sentiment. Exactly the point I am making, this claim that 60s music was as good as it will ever get. When I hear Beatles in a movie soundtrack, I know that exactly the level of boring predictable slop that will follow. I think a nicer touch would have been to use a late 80s or early 90s band. Midway between Apple’s start and now, and not nearly so contentiously coded.

So thrilled to celebrate #Apple50 with @paulmccartney! His music has inspired us from the beginning, so this is a full circle moment to close out our celebrations. Thank you, Paul, for proving that when you think different, you have the power to change the world.

@veldacreation @Bonmatimessi @BlancoRony07 No, those stats show how influential one player is in the game. What he actually does on the pitch. How he interacts with his teammates. Messi does pretty much all of it, he generates football. Ronaldo generates goals, which is the most important thing. But it is limited.

@Bonmatimessi @BlancoRony07 All these stats you're masturbating on are useless 😭 2 stats : goals and assist. The rest is made-up bullshit

we need to arrest whoever started the messi vs ronaldo debate
