But that peak is like, 6 years? Across 15+ years, I think you can argue that Ibra was better, and Kane's previous season is honestly up there with Suarez' best seasons too. I think it's fair to give the overall edge to Suarez if you like, but I think there are two >>'s too many in your statement, there. | ||

He was basically topscorer in all competitions he ever participated. | ||

With most goalscorers you can start seeing patterns and maybe think about ways to prevent things from happening, but with Suarez almost every goal is a different finish from different kind of a scenario. Best individual PL season I’ve seen for my money, it was nuts | ||

What do you mean, one-dimensional?! | ||

Could we see some teams employ players built for 45 minutes of absolute physical effort? With 5 subs a game, you could pretty easily rotate a handful of guys in midfield putting in a super shift for 45 minutes each rather than starting to consider subs somewhere past 60 minutes. | ||

weve already seen more 45 min subs for tactical reasons than in the 3 sub limit days, but utilising subs just to get 45 minutes of athleticism from a player is a too simplistic approach to game management imo. theres too much variance between player ability, game flow, tactics etc that you would be completely ignoring basically | ||

Not only his achievements with Manchester but with Abderdeen. The greatest ever and we will likely never see one like him ever again | ||

You recover quite a bit during half time, there's no problem taking another 15 minute shift after a 15 minute break. If you could swap people in and out, doing 2x23 minutes could perhaps be worth it. | ||

Honestly, he doesn't seem like someone who will change much of the culture unless the board and players are willing to bring in the change too. I think he could maybe do the Spurs thingy if they brought in some young players and gave him time, but at this point he seems more like a stop gap solution. | ||

anyways i lowkey hope we get relegated even with poch. if thats what it takes for the glazers and ineos to leave then its a necessary sacrifice. and fuck the pl. they could have applied their fit and proper test to the glazers at any time and forced them to sell the club and theyve done nothing but watch as the glazers dismantle the largest football institution in the league | ||

I mean City right now would fail because they have shown themselves not to be fit or proper, right? | ||
