I think you would be shocked to see the number of Al Nassr Ronaldo kits that have flooded the young kids market in the UK.
My son merely knows him as the person who does the siuuu celebration, which is a fitting legacy.

Globalization killed football. As a kid, everyone supported one of America, Chivas, Cruz Azul, or Pumas. It was with the galacticos nonsense that suddenly you had wankers claiming to be Real Madrid fans. The rest followed.
Disasi at right back with Madueke in front of him and Silva to his right. Poor bastard is going to be on an island.
My nephew mentioned Messi the other day. I want to gaslight him into thinking Mario Jardel scored more than him.
Barcelona are better as a second team when they are shit. Was always big into Inter and Barcelona in the mostly lean years of the 90s.Originally Posted by CJay
In other football supporting tragedy news my nephew appears to have become a Chelsea fan, despite having no real reason to other than one of his div mates at school is apparently one. What a terrible life choice.
And yes, on comes Oriol Romeu to see the game out.
City game sounds like a pre season game
Supporting Chelsea was amazing fun until 2003. After that it all felt pretty much bought and fake, except for the moments when we somehow backed ourselves into being genuine underdogs. The peak of that was the 2012 CL run under Di Matteo when basically everything went against us and we still won it, contrary to any kind of logic. I never felt much for Terry and Lampard. Drogba was the guy. Late developer, went mental, horribly underrated by rival fans at the time (though probably not now).
Nowadays at least the Russian stuff is gone but American capital isn't exactly any more lovable, the team is nonsense, and I'm old. Going to watch them is miserable as nobody likes the District Line and you have to sit among coke-addled losers.
Just fucking win please.
You will. We are reliably shit when Palmer plays up top.
Well that’s just a penalty, isn’t it. Jesus
Chalk that one up to VAR. Had the feel of one he'd give if it didn't exist but he's gone for the safety of no pen with the option to be told he's wrong.
I can only base this off 1998-2001 era before the internet era existed unless your family had a prior support.
Above was 100% Chelsea, below was Arsenal and the middle was Man United or Liverpool.
Above would be chelsea and below would be Arsenal.
As I said the other day, Kent is the largest place with zero football success I've known. If you couldf make a Brentford of Kent you'd make billions.
Facebook is awash with it too so I assume it’s in some way the parents doing as well.
I have no idea why they showed the correct angle at first which shows the clear knee collision and then didn’t bother afterwards.
The free kick against caicedo there was just as bad
I never think he’s anti Liverpool I just think he’s a fucking terrible ref.
Playing a high line with Thiago silva at the back. This is going to be a fisting if they score soon
Left side is free the whole time as expected. He has to stick Gallagher over there or something. Madueke doesn’t have a clue

Chilwell has given the ball away 3 times already to let Liverpool run through on goal. Absolutely horrendous
Jota has just mugged off two centre backs with absolute ease. Probably says more about the defending but even so.
The best Chelsea era was when they had no stand at one end of the pitch so it was just temporary hoardings. Chelsea has John Spencer and Graham Stuart leading the line iirc.
Fucking hell this. Who gives a fuck why they're making a decision, just get rid of var you cunts.
Good lord.
I’m always a bit wary of labelling youngsters as the new best thing and if they can sustain it. But, Bradley does look like he could be a player.
There's something distinctly British about halting a game to get a decision right and then explaining yourself to thousands of angry bastards.
It’s only going to be worse at Wembley on the bigger pitch. The only reason Chelsea have mugged draws off these recently is because Reece James always seemed to be fit against them.
Aston Villa and Man City away before that game as well. Could on about 0-16 in the 4 games combined
Nah, you'd be complaining even more so without var. The majority would. Just too unaware to realise it.
Could be a proper bumming here.
Fucking Nunez…
And that’s a penalty. Of course.
Lmao
Watching Gallagher near the opposition box must make defenders smile. My god
My mate did that and has been an Everton season ticket holder for as long as I’ve known him (25 years) so it could be worse.
I'm a twit
Yep. All the bleating about 'we have the technology' when Lampard's goal against the Germans was disallowed led to this.
I don't think I've seen a better half than that in years.
...and without Mo Salah.
Yeah, some effort from Tierney.
VAR undoubtedly does result in more decisions being correct. Whether that's worth the pain is the question.
No I wouldn't. If you can't even enjoy your team scoring a goal then it's literally a pointless sport.
Mudryk
By the measures yes. But that penalty for Chelsea is a prime example of it. Referee doesn’t give it because VAR will check it. Then because it’s not ‘obvious’ but realistically it should be a pen.
Not a mistake per se and doesn’t mess up the stats. But refs just don’t make decisions anymore unless it is stone wall and that’s what’s wrong with it.
We’ve been gaslit for years in thinking Sterling is a good player. A lazy bastard who rarely ever tries. His passing and ball striking is pathetic
Whoever Chelseas #5 is, is getting obliterated by a kid who was playing for Bolton last year.
It's Benoit Badiashile, who for all his defensive prowess should get a job as Indira Gandhi's bodyguard.
We're the best team in the world again, Bradley is gonna retire Trent and Klopp is the greatest ever. The only new thing to come out of this is amazement at how the hairy Hungarian keep his lips so pert and moist. God I'd love to chew on them in a night of passion.
I'm also not sure why 'Enzo' is playing no look passes when his midfield is being slapped up and he's 3-0 down either. But to each their own.
Nkunku actually looks a player though.
Another centre back at full back. It’s like putting Van Dijk there. Pochettino the genius. Play narrow as fuck. Don’t have any pace on your full backs (until gusto) and allow the Liverpool wide men all the time on the ball.
6 away defeats out of 7. The one win nearly had Luton come back from 0-3 down with 10 to play. He doesn’t have a clue how to set up away from home. The good form recently has been wins over Sheff Utd, Crystal Palace, Brighton, Middlesbrough and Preston all at home. Grim
I believe he just snapped the Van Dijk dribbled past streak.
Okay, now you can bin VAR.
Tierney was never going to give a decision against Liverpool after klopp’s meltdown against him last time
