Would you have Sergio Ramos on your starting XI?
Liverpool Fan writing this….I may hate Madrid, I may hate the way they pushed Liverpool and killed the final…I would even rate him short of 6 on the way he played that final , also not impressed with his Red Card mountain that he'd gathered over time..But his Job is defending and defending is what he is good at..And yes… That's what counts..I'd definitely have him in my team on any match day…The red cards though… If they earn you trophies, I'll take em. Zizou does…., Jurgen definitely would…
Is Pepe the worst ever footballer to have played the game?
Well, going by his antics in the field he is being criticised by many fans. Notorious Pepe : This game between Portugal and Germany was expected to be tight. But Pepe made it easy for Germany by showing this unwanted reaction and going off the pitch by getting red card. and some more...These kinds of foul have been committed by other world class players too(Eg-Zidane in 2006 World Cup), but not on a regular basis like Pepe. Just because he shows brutal assault on players doesn't mean that he is worst footballer. He has also achieved very big recognitions and has secured a lot of acheivements.He was selected for UEFA EURO SQUAD OF THE TOURNAMENT 2008 & 2012He was also in UEFA 23 man SQUAD of the year 2014. Yes, he is a dirtier player than many others. But he is one of the best centre backs in his era.
Is Diego Costa a good footballer? Or is his anger or stupidity getting in the way?
Diego Costa is a good footballer. Sure, sometimes his short temper and antics can get on the way while his form this season can be better, but as a whole Costa is a pretty prolific strikers who bangs in more than 20 goals a season and gets his teams, Atletico Madrid and Chelsea, to win titles. Just like Suarez, Costa is not necessarily the most perfect footballer out there, but he gets the work done and is an overall skilful player.
Are players like Diego Costa and Arda Turan who are dropped from a team but are still a part of the club paid any salary by the club?
Absolutely.Even players that are injured, on international duty, or otherwise unavailable to play are paid by the club.It's part of their contracts with the club. Both parties have agreed to honour a contract. Players get paid some fixed amount (plus some bonus depending on certain conditions being met) per interval of time, which may be a week, a month or a year, for a certain discrete amount of aforementioned interval of time.That's how contracts work. Players exchange their footballing abilities for some money, quite similar to how a data analyst, for example, is paid in exchange for his skill with data.So as long as a player has not gone against the terms of a contract, the club is liable to pay his weekly base wage.For poor performance, not turning up for training, getting sent off or some sort of misbehaviour (as deemed by the club owning his or her footballing rights) , players may be fined a week or two’s wages,Players may be ‘fired’ by clubs, either with compensation of some sort, or no compensation, depending, again, on the terms of their contracts.
Why did real madrid lose in el classicò?
Here’s Barca starting XI.At first glance it seems like an usual Barca’s formation, with Paco replacing Neymar (suspended), and Messi moving from the right wing to the central. But then it shifted to this when they attacked.I was wondering why Lucho decided to play two strikers instead of one and two wingers, but then I started to realize that he put Paco there for a reason - to keep the defence busy. With two strikers camping at the defensive line, Rakitic pushed to the right to cover the space for Messi - what he did during the successful 2014–15 season - and Alba at the left wing providing width, Messi had the whole midfield to play with. Both the first and the second goal are scored with the same concept: Messi making the run from the right wing, cut into the center, receiving the ball and scored by a left foot shot.First goal:Second goal:You see the spaces, right? Football is all about winning spaces at the right moments.Barcelona also adopted a very strange defending approach in the 23 April game. Here’s how the formation looks when they’re defending.Again, its Paco and Rakitic. Barcelona defence has always been vulnerable, so with the two tracking back deep to cover the wing, the four “original” defenders can focus on taking care of the penalty area, while Busquets doing the sweeping in front of them (as usual). Real Madrid had created a handful of chances, but mostly through the mean of counter-attack, and wasted eventually (phew). Their first goal by Casemiro was a messy situation after a corner kick, and their second goal was one I considered a brilliant moment of James Rodriguez, when he make the cut around the defence to receive the ball without anyone marking.To conclude, in the latest El Clasico, Real Madrid had been trying to exploit Barcelona’s bad defending like many teams had, but unfortunately, Barcelona had found a way to not only minimizing their weaknesses, but also maximizing their best player’s potential, and won the game.
