Giggs can get f***ed.

What's with all these ESPN.com plugs in every thread?

 

[Gecklund]

What's with all these ESPN.com plugs in every thread?

Yeah they’re kind of a garbage source.

 

[Jussi]

Ok, Hawkman is an ESPN bot.

 

[VEGASKING]

CNBC in the stocks thread, too.

You do that, you go to the box, you know. Two minutes, by yourself, you know and you feel shame, you know. And then you get free.

KDB won player of the year. WTF?

KDB won player of the year. WTF?

Ruben Dias won player of the season and footballer of the year.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Ruben Dias won player of the season and footballer of the year.

KdB won the PFA POTY

 

[Savant]

Most of the award winners were completely wrong this season

 

[Blender]

KdB won the PFA POTY

Ah, yea that seems like an odd choice.

Harry Kane didn't win any player of the season awards despite being the best player imo.

 

[Havre]

Most goals. Most assists. For a team with zero support for the forwards for large parts of the season. Not good enough

 

[Evilo]

They really wanted to put a City player even though nobody deserved it individually in City.

 

[luiginb]

Ruben Dias won player of the season and footballer of the year.

Even dumber. Wasn't even the best defender on his team.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Guardiola winning MoTS was the real crime.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Extremely should've been Kane

They really wanted to put a City player even though nobody deserved it individually in City.

This is exactly it. The thing with this City team is that a bunch of different players had 1-2 month stretches of being their MVP, but no one was sustained through the whole season.

But KdB’s job isn’t to score goals….

 

[Chimaera]

I also think there's a bit of a "we don't want to hear Pep rant about KdB".

 

[AB13]

But KdB’s job isn’t to score goals….

Of course not. KDB had a great season. Just thought this was intresting to share.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Funny how neither Foden or KDB were nominees for Man City's own POTY award.

 

[Havre]

Should probably add with Kane. How many players will prevent more goals against on set-pieces? For an attacking player he is a bloody wizard when it comes to defending aerial balls.

Usually I almost feel "bad" when praising a Spurs player. I am aware that players playing for "your club" means it is difficult to be objective about evaluating their abilities, but this is just stupid.

 

[Savant]

Guardiola winning MoTS was the real crime.

Correct. Should have been Klopp. No other manager on the planet keeps that Liverpool team in the automatic UCL places.

Klopp made mistakes this year, of course, but the biggest ones were in Champions League, not in the Premier League.

Every team went through a rut this year too, but Klopp had a team kept together by duct tape and got 3rd, which is the most impressive managerial performance of the season in my (probably unpopular) opinion
