UCL 25/26

Tam

There aren't many things better in life than scoring an unexpected short-backlift toe poke goal at five-a-sides.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Tam the five a side goals tend to be too short for toe punts – seven a side is better!

Big Willie Instep, laces and outside of the boot

Meatwad

Gurgen
instep is the laces.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Meatwad wtf, I always thought instep was inside of the foot.

Gurgen

Then inside foot :p

Big Willie

Same. When I first wrote it I had instep and outstep. Then I thought to myself "wtf is outstep an actual word to describe the opposite to instep?" and decided to write outside the boot to be safe.

Meanwhile I was convinced instep was correct until @Meatwad called me on it. Googled it and turns out its the fucking laces. All these years I had it all wrong.

So I'm the only one who took Cruijff's comment as a sexual innuendo?

Klaus

Cruyff probably meant he had six ways of playing the ball for each foot: one for each toe and one for the heel.

Burnwinter

"Players today can only shoot with their laces. I could shoot with the inside, laces, and outside of both feet. In other words, I was six times better than today’s players."

The quote as reported when the old goat died.

Gurgen

He was the greatest, in many ways. As a pundit he was everything all pundits in England is not. Every time he was on TV it was interesting and you gained an insight into the game you didn’t have before. I’d sacrifice a million Nevilles to get 10 more minutes of Cruyff.

Gurgen I'd sacrifice Neville to get 10 minutes conversation with Cruyff's tombstone.

Mirth

jones I’d just sacrifice Neville

daredevil

It's crazy that he was actually the favourite to take over Rioch before Wenger was brought in.

He didn't manage after Barcelona but it was truly a sliding doors moment. I wouldn't trade what Wenger did for what Cruijff might have done but it would have been some period still.

JazzG

daredevil Wow didn't know that

Meatwad

drop neville off at a valencia ultras bar and let the chips fall where they may.

Pepe LeFrits

Anyone know why Lucca was sent off against PSV last night? Seems like it was a straight red for arguing with the ref, which seems bizarre.

USArsenal

Apparently the gesture he made to the German ref was considered a big insult and 'obscene' when he was pointing to his head, almost telling the ref he was an idiot and crazy.. Think it was a bit overboard from the ref, but thats what i've been seeing online

Pepe LeFrits

Frankfurt playing a high line with no pressure on the ball against a team with Isak in it. Angeesque.

IBL

What a goal Franfurt
