Crazy that me a barca Fan is flabbergasted that valverde isnt even talked about, I think most real Fans would agree that he was their most important player this season
Yup, I'm a culer but for me Valverde is one of the best midfielder in the world if not the best and i think he deserves to be somewhere in this bracket.
valverde rodrygo is the definition of undervalued but only to people who are not deep madrid fans. although as for the true madrid fanatics they think otherwise
Do you really think these guys watch La Liga? Their ball knowledge stinks outside of the PL and Serie A, I'm surprised this isn't common knowledge by now.
Raphinha outshines Saka in pretty much everything: he has more league goals, league goal contributions (G+A), a higher expected assists (xA) value, more big chances created, more key passes, and more chances created. Additionally, Raphinha has scored more Champions League goals, has more overall goals and goal contributions, and matches Saka in Champions League assists. All of this for a bum like Varvar to say that this is not a close conversation. I get that some Barca fans are annoying out here, but you also probably should admit that some of the takes yall have warrant that reaction.
Raphina's been better in UCL but Raphina has played 3 more league games than Saka. Saka missed a handful of games so far. and I'd argue that Saka has a much greater impact on his team, Arsenal without Saka has 0 attacking presence and has a much harder time maintaining possesion and control of games. At Barca, as soon as Lamine Yamal was out Barca became shit, Raphina isn't influencing games like that. And I think Saka has the ability to control games without G/A, in the game against Leicester Saka had a genuine 10/10 performance with no goal contributions, influenced every single aspect of the pitch, tracking back to defend, building up play, putting balls into the final third and creating chances.
The Salah-Hazard debate ended so long ago it’s not even worth wasting air to talk about it, Salah is so far clear of Hazard at this point he’s up there with the best prem players of all time
im a barca fan and even tho i dont agree with many of your opinions (except ferms(goat)) you are f*cking brilliant. I know it seems to you that ur just 4 chill guys talking about football but you are more that than to us, u are our friends and my life has been at least 10% better and happier since i started to follow you and its been a long time since that moment. I watched every single video and listened to every single podcast and just know that all 4 of you are awesome.❤
Guys you really make the best football content videos ever. Your ideas are just amazing and even the podcasts are just awesome. Never stop and keep the hard work! Happy New Years to my Italian Goats!
@joey1kenobi Haha yeah I remember it, pretty much up till he won last year 🤣 Yamal tax is definitely above it tho. He got a 8th place Balon D'Or ranking after a 5 goal season outside the Euros, bro is nice but Jesus.
@@lopezlion3164 Yamal was argubly the best player on a side that won the Euros and better than Mbappe both legs they played the cl.If the g/a argument was serious Vini wouldn't be nowhere near the bdor podium but he scored in games that mattered.
Raphinaha have 27 Goal contributions in 25 games and Saka have 22 goal contributions in 24 games and yet still Saka is having a better season than raphinha that is a criminal offense that need to be studied
Vini has 22 g/a in 21 games, Yamal has 17 g/a in 21 games. Yet they still chose Yamal, is this criminal offense too or are we gonna bring the 17 y/o argument again?
@@bornheim3853 Yeah if all these guys didn't have bias, then their takes would be amazing. Varvar has United and Prem bias, Barca, Juventus, Dortmund, Bayern, and Bundesliga hater crap, and Lewa hater crap while glazing Harry Kane who's on his knees for a trophy.
Having Yamal over Vini in both perimeters(over 5 years and this season) is crazy. Although Vini missed a part of a season(as yamal now) he scored 2 hattricks already and had an important part of all the games won and lost. Yamal on the other side carried Barca but to me he was not individually as good as Vini. Barca was winning but stat wise(g/a) for barca raphina stepped up. Also over 5 year period I wouldve also take Vini bcs you already know what you will get(balon dor top 3 atleast) and he will get even better(at least his last 4,5 season he got better by year) Yamal on the other hand has crazy potential but you dont know will he reach his full potential( messi ronaldo type) or become a great player like saka for example. So Vini for me
Raphinha scored a hattrick against Bayern, scored a goal against Madrid. Scored against Dortmund. He's the definition of a big game player. Cry more. Cole can only farm against mid table teams.
Loved how you guys were not against Barca players this time for me Palmer Vs Rapha is really close, and thanks for bringing up the stats for Lewa to defend my boy but Saka is better. Thank you again for treating Barca fans as normal humans, it really matters 😊🥲 And I also feel that you guys today were almost agreeing on everything which is a really good vibe for the podcast. This thing could stay as long as we don't mention M.U, Inter, Milan and Juve 😅
@ scoring vs bayern and madrid in our biggest games most assists and second most goals in the whole league? js say you don’t want the sport at this point never want to see you comment something so utterly stupid again.🙏🙏
love the podcasts boys! maybe next time, if you could you can put the table on the screen, so it would be easier to follow! love from Estonia! Have a nice new years!
I started watching a month ago the auction ones were amazing and since then I have binge watched them all each of you are different characters that works so well together that makes this so entertaining to watch
Bro what is Varvar talking about he says that laliga is the fourth best league in the world and when its yamal vs musiala he says "Musiala you are having a cute season but, bundesliga nobody cares"
The only time he really did bad was aganist Liverpool but that was a team thing and Liverpool plan was locking him down. Chelsea also did pretty well that much but they missed chances, and lost by a thing margain I would say. Raphinha has been amazing but when Yamal isn't there he won't help Barca at any case. Imo. Raphinha is better than Palmer when Yamal is playing but Palmer is doing crazy things for Chelsea
You guys should have done this in rankings format because everybody knows Salah will win and many good players get eliminated early on in the brackets. Rankings would be much better for these type of videos where we know who the winner will be, unanimously.
Glad you explained the bracket for the audio listeners...they don't have the pleasure to see the beautiful graphics that you prepared for the RUclips watchers...😅😅
35:57 OK you're wrong, Many fullbacks can carry. Best example Gareth Bale for spurs, he single handedly knocked out inter in cl and retired zanetti and maicon
1:00:41 funny how var var said no one cares about bundesliga about musiala but just before that he said that bundesliga is better then la liga and it’s closer to Ligue 1 then it’s to bundesliga 😂😂
Only problem with Haaland who I think isn’t as good as people think he is but you guys talk about zirkzee for being tall and not wanting to play like a Haaland
20:49 I can't believe for the first time I can agree with VarVar😂. Palmer in big games vs Raphinha in big games comparision doesnt make a lot of sense. Palmer playing in no 10 role creating for others while Raphinha job is to score from transition play. Again one player is being locked by 2-3 players in the midfield while the other player using his pace to score during transition 😂. P/S. Under Poch, Palmer playing in tht RW position and score goal too while assisting the diss function Chelsea side.
Raphinha's job is to make off the ball movements all the time. He's not a player to play it out of the back to final 3. He constantly makes runs in behind to confuse defenders, creating spaces for his teammates. Is it his fault that defenders do not lock him up like they do with Palmer? They have different profiles, and comparing them is not exactly fair. Take to consideration that Raphinha also performs in UCL matches, so it's a plus for him.

How did VarVar go from "Bundasliga is better than Laliga" to "No one cares about Bundasliga" 0 consistency
a league can be better but not as cared about as another league. like serie a is lowk better than la liga but it’s less cared ab
MBAPPE WILL COME BACK Y'ALL WILL NEED TO APOLOGISE 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
@ mbappe been gone since the sociedad game let it go man
Both can be true
Because varvar seems to just want to win whatever argument he's in that would prove him right instead of having consistent standards and arguments.
