Favourite pro Sports:
1. Football
2. Tennis
3. Boxing
4. Horse Racing (peaked with the Ludi Circensis)
5. Gladiatorial games (munera- original name as originally the fights were duties paid to dead ancestors to cover funerals)
5 would be 1 if it still existed😂

Cruyff:
“For me, the 90s had only 1 king, Romário was the greatest football player of that decade. In fact, I am convinced that Brazil would not win the United States WC if it had not played. That's already a lot.”
Diego: “I have great esteem for Romário, he's on my ideal team."
Here is why Didi ‘failed’ at Madrid: Alfredolf Di Stefano the biggest tyrant in football history. When you make all star teams remember most of the top 10 names couldn’t function together as they each want the ball always through the
@Wimbledon
Feels like a training session for Novak. When he retires, tennis should just be scrapped as a professional sport. Does nobody spend enough time honing their skills anymore? Maybe the new crop are limited witn inferior control for practicing on the more homogenised surfaces
@SelecaoTalk
Coook. regardless Totti should’ve won he was the best player in best league in world. 02/03 AIC Serie A player of year despite playing for a team that came 8th and was robbed by referees all season. Also scored 3 FK goals in Coppa Italia final vs UcL winners Milan
@MessiLeoBrasil
LMAOOOO Mbappe dropped the best World Cup seen in 28 years just to rank below De Bruyne who played one of the worst world cups ever by a star. This PR award needs to be scrapped for good.

@SelecaoTalk
He struggled because he no longer had a system built around him until Galtier came. Instead of having every pass go through him he was often on the touchline and not close to many teammates at once
🇩🇪 vs 🇳🇱 74 Thread:
Football so much cooler back in days teams had stronger national identities, England Argentina 86, Holland Germany 74 it actually makes it a war almost and u can feel the rivalry intensity as post recent war climates manifest on the pitch

@IFTVofficial
This football is more fun to watch than tiki taka, there’s a thrill to the last ditch defending, there’s no thrill to defensive minded ball retention.
@decinitive
4/4 for France hahahahah. 7/10 performance. It’s almost like they give everyone a 4/4 and it’s an index against the specific individual’s best possible performance level
@riomarojay
The genuine 2005 TOTY- the best year of this century 🔥
Čech/Ceni
Cicinho Carragher Terry Maldini/Nery
Lampard Gerrard/Ballack

@Tezzathekchen
You must’ve wasted a lot of time typing that waffle. France’s 2nd goal against Morocco literally came from Mbappe’s elite close control dribbling in a central crowded area. Winning a UCL has nothing to do with being elite, it’s a team game, funnily Mbappes best ever UCL campaign

Stoichkov: "I've never seen a player do the things he did inside the area".
Laudrup: “I played and saw great players, but none compares to Romário, he was super fantastic".
@MarzoMarinho
Best final performance in history (1950-). Then Parreira dropped Cicinho, Gilberto, Robinho and eventually Adriano and moved Kaka and R10 out of position. And Emerson also missed the France game through injury.

English pundits are the most embarrassing and cringely humble to the point of downright lying in world so nothing they say is relevant really. Lampard said Mount is better than him💀
🎙️ Gabriel Jesus : “I believe scoring goals isn’t my strongest attribute. I score goals too, but I help in other ways.”
Our “

” saying scoring goals isnt his strong point is a new low…

@A10imperador
Best 9 this century and arguably the best footballer this century, and for sure nobody else was better at the age 21-23 when he peaked. Even that peak is in the conversation for the best this century so imagine his true potential peak.
@pelesburner
Ian Rush is the greatest match winner in English top flight history
His record vs PAUL MCGRATH who he called his toughest opp:
15 games 0 goals
For Liverpool vs Utd: 7 games 1 win
For Liverpool vs Aston Villa: 8 games 3 wins
McGrath: 15 games 2 goals
Best CB oat 🇮🇪
@SeanDOlfc
Best playmaker ever? we saw him fail in the role only time he ever played it at 2010 World Cup, had all his fans wishing he played up front and the actual elite playmaker Riquelme come back. Mbappe was the best player at b2b World Cups and led Monaco to a title vs PSG at 18.
@pelesburner
The difference in their technique is night and day. This would be akin to saying LAmpard > Zidane back in day but nobody did because nerds didn’t watch football then because they weren’t introduced to the game via statistical spreadsheets on social media.
Pagan 6 pointed star in a Church dear me. The Rev 2:9 Jews were originally Samaritans and kept that Babylonian sun worship symbol when rebranding. The hexagram was a symbol of Moloch & Astoreth, & Saturn/Satan was also represented by the hexagram. The Rothschilds adopted it too.
ROMA is no longer a great city but a great museum of ruins that collectively evoke the memory of the past glory of Roma. Top 2 most important cities in the history of the world
@decinitive
Haha this is why you can’t take ratings seriously unless one person who isn’t biased does them all in a short space of time. Mbappe australia is better than every performance here and got a 3 only.

What a team 🔥
Nobody else had as effortless control and skill in the final phase. The phase where you have to make the quickest decisions and hence most players always seem rushed in it, meanwhile Romário would operate leisurely with a 1st intention to skill/entertain & yet the most effective
