I'm saying that Modric > Özil and Kroos > Özil. At least for that Real team. I think successful teams these days (not just, I guess?) are great 'teams' rather than sum of good players. When it's a combination of both it's better, of course. Simeone, Zidane, Conte, they focus on having a strong midfield, high pressure when needed + technical players to score on counter-attacks and still be able to create goals against defensive teams. Özil cannot fit in these teams. All these coaches would bench him until he learns to run more. And despite him probably being the best 10 in the world right now (if you don't count Messi as a 10 :D), we can bet right now that no top 5 team will buy him before the end of his career. By the way, I'm not bashing on him because they lost last weekend and we need a scapegoat. I've always thought the same of him, and you should ask Real fans they'll tell you the same. One player that's similar to him is Pastore. So much class, but so 'lazy'. I feel like if I was a pro player, I'd be that kind of player xD | ||

Apparently they're are likely to get into the 3rd Portuguese league after this season. They have 16 wins out of 17 games. Now, the report said that 12 of those wins were forfeit wins. That the team plays incredibly brutally, nowhere near within the rules, and that they threaten referees so they don't act against them. Does anyone know more about this? You mean these guys ? | ||

The trouble with canelas is that intimidation of referees and opposing teams made it impossible to actual enforce the rules of the game. The only alternative was a boycott. if they do get promoted they will play in other regions and the referees will be more professional so these tactics may not last. The other fun fact is that Canelas means 'shins' in Portuguese and we often refer to that body part when describing rough play in football. | ||

I think will only pay attention to Freiburg for the remainder of the season, looking at the other parts of the table might be too infuriating. | ||
