In terms of talent
De Arruabarrena
Nandez Araujo Gimemez Olivera Bentancur Ugarte Valverde Pellistri Darwin Ocampo
Honourable mentions to, Rochet Nico De La CRUYFF, Sebastian Caceres, Matias Viña, Maxi Araujo. A few of these guys are probably starters, namely Maxi and Rochet. The rest will probably be great bench options as they’ve proven to fit well into Bielsa’s system
Once Caldas beating Boca Juniors in the Libertadores. Imagine if NAC Breda qualified for the CL and beat Madrid in the final. That’s how it felt
I always define greatest as talent+accolades, so for me it has to be either Scholes or De Bruyne, but I’d call Gerrard the best
Nacional have 9 international trophies, not 19. This is approved by FIFA
If Argentina don’t win in Brazil, and Uruguay beats Bolivia at home, we’d finish the year top of the table
Dale Brasil, mantene la racha por unas fechas más
I fucking love this man so much. He’s come so far from being a little bird in our youth divisions. He’s become one of the world’s best and most consistent players, he’s become a full grown man who can boast to anyone that he’s been champion of Europe, that he’s captained his National Team and the biggest club in the world, all at the age of 25. And despite all that, he’s still human. He’s made mistakes, he’s suffered. We often don’t perceive that people at the top, people living our dreams, are human as well. We believe that with success comes happiness, but the pressure of success can be a harsh prison, especially when coupled with the fact that, despite the riches, despite the fame, life doesn’t care. It’s unfeeling and random. Tragedy can strike us all, even if we rule the world
There are a few teams in South America that can probably give them a match. Ourselves, for one. Ecuador gave them quite a match for 75’. Of course you can never count Brazil out for too long either, and they’ll have an actual coach by then. Argentina are far and away the best team in the world, but they aren’t infallible. No team is. I think they’re overwhelming favourites, however. It’s a shame since I wanna remain on top of the Copa América list, but it’s very difficult to overlook Argentina for anything right now
But never as low as having been relegated and burning your stadium, gashi
Maxi Araujo just made Girona’s RB and PSG’s CB look like kids.
De toluca pa todo el mundo noma
Baggio 94 Asamoah Gyan 2010 Maybe Juanfran in 2016, but less because of him and more because of the Madrid Derby and because it kickstarted Real’s treble of CL’s
Personally I think Baggio is the most iconic one. To this day we still remember the phrase “Socrates died poisoned, and Baggio died standing”
