I don't really follow the french league so this might be nonsense, but all the noise on the internets for a long while has been that he's been under performing and can't control the dressing room at all. Last season he came second in a one horse race.

It's sensationalized into "Everyone ignoring Ralf's instructions!" when really it's just Ronaldo who hasn't heard anything more than the random honking of Charlie Brown's teacher when a manager talks since his second year with SAF

pretty sure SAF sounded like that in his first year too

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

PSG’s continuing existence has been one long offensive development when you think about it

He's fuckin wank lol the fact that a deeper lying back line exposes him less doesn't change that

tbf if you paradropped Nigel Martyn into 2022 everyone would say he's poo poo

football was only good when your qualifications for being a world-class keeper involved having massive hands and being able to kick the ball 75 yards

True for probably every keeper pre-Neuer at this stage. If you can't sweep then you're a relic who will never make it on a top team.

I guess the question is which pre-2010 keepers would actually be able to adapt to modern goalkeeping.
