Watching Man U vs Juventus and keep wondering...is Paul Pogba the most overrated player in history?  He is so pathetically bad.  In the World Cup he was just a different player and really good, but for his club team he is horrible.

So Man U came back and won...chuckle at Mou rubbing it in a little, nice.

I wouldn’t say overrated as he’s not particularly rated at all at the moment. Overpriced definitely. He’s failed to live up to his performances elsewhere.

There have been a few that spring to my head immediately. Chelsea have had a load, no less Schevchenko. Arshavin was signed on the basis of one good international tournament. Schweinsteiger. Veron. Craig Gordon. Balotelli.

He was without question considered one of the top talents in Europe before signing at Man U.  He has not been good at all for them.  That's my point.  Every team has busts shoot Chelsea might have one in Morata right now, but Pogba has stunk it up at Man U.

UCL has been boring this year.  I watched few games and it seems like many players are going half speed.  Almost like watching a friendly game.

I have watched one game.  They need to show more games.  One positive to playing Liverpool is the first leg is televised.  If the second leg is not televised or if Bayern somehow makes it through and either QF match is not televised then I will be done with the competition for the season.  Not wasting my time on a product that they do not want me to see.  Cannot believe that neither Barca nor Real will have their first leg televised.

Not sure if this is anything to do with new league they are trying to create to eliminate the little guys and have all superstar teams participate.

Liverpool is smashing Arsenal today.  They want this trophy bad.  

Arsenal have no defense...  Liverpool created 3 chances and scored 5 goals.  They need CBs bad...  Arsenal had only 1 clean sheets in like 30 games this season. Worst D in decades.

Nah, it is their way of trying to force us to pay for B/R Live.  FOX use to show matches on both FS1 and FS2 so you could watch both during knockout rounds.  I use to rush home (or to the bar) from work on those days and watch both games.  Not possible this year without paying extra, which I refuse to do for one competition that is only on during the week.

      We might have replacement refs again…

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.

      Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
