tiagosilva29 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Totti was better but he's older now and slower. You're comparing different styles of play and different playing positions. It's like me saying that Lev Yashin was better than Eus?bio. I want to create a "Alfista for Turkish PM" poster:pp Alfista is the new Atat?rk. ~~ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641781-euro-2008/page/26/#findComment-589497927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I would never bet on a team that has C. Ronaldo. After last night, I'll have to agree with you there. I just wish he'd stop delaying this whole Real Madrid thing, and just go there and ruin his career already!

I just wish he'd stop delaying this whole Real Madrid thing, and just go there and ruin his career already! i agree totally. Ronaldo is a very interesting player. He has a great talent but he is a clown. He cant play in any big games but he can play against mediocre to bad teams. such as Man City, tottenham, West Ham and etc... and he is definitely a player for the English Premier League. If he goes to madrid, i would be suprised if he can score more than 10 goals throughout the season. I dont believe la liga is for ronaldo.

Actually, I think he only wants to go to La Liga just because it's a slower game than the Premiership, so he'll have an easier season. Ruud Van Nistelrooy is a good example. Still scoring like crazy, even though he's past his best. 62 goals in 51 appearances for Real Madrid. Whereas Ronaldo has 66 goals in 163 appearances for Man United (these are only domestic appearances and goals, BTW). Ronaldo claimed that he'll hit 50 goals next season. He will if he goes to Spain, that's for sure. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641781-euro-2008/page/26/#findComment-589498000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 okk guys.. WHAT TO SAY..i just told all of you that germany would beat portugal and i put 50 bucks on that game.. well it paid of. i just earned near a thousand bucks on euro 2008 so far. ı had bet 150 bucks for turkey croatia game for a turkish glory.. but added another 150 just now... I UNDERSTAND FOOTBALL... when pretty much the entire forum said portugal would beat germany... what did i say? GERMANY will win.. When i said to the forum that Ronaldo is a looser and cant play in any big matches what did you guys say? HE IS THE BEST EVER... and i insisted on saying that he was a clown. he will always be a clown. so bye byr portugal. Tomorrow will be a tough game. I said before 99% turkey would win and 1% croatia.. but now i change it to 98% turkey and 2% croatia because we have 3 key defenders missing due to injury and some midfielders will play defence tomorrow for turkey. Thats horrible but great gameplay like always will bring victory to turkey. from now on respect me.. because everything i said so far about EURO 2008 in this forum turned out to be true and it will not change. I suspect i am Nostradamus' relative. i will check our family tree and see if he is my great great great great uncle. Damn i am good. Turkey will kick Croatian ass tomorrow. You are an arrogant and ignorant little toe rag aren't you? I bet on Germany to beat Portugal last night, and by your logic, I deserve a knighthood.

While I am not a huge Ronaldo fan, you are forgetting key pieces of information. Before the past couple of seasons, his gameplay was not as a goal scorer but as a playmaker. He really only started trying to score a lot of goals during Uniteds striker shortage. La Liga is almost a custom made game for Ronaldo, because his pace will seem even greater there. He would not be able to hack it in the Serie A though. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641781-euro-2008/page/26/#findComment-589498246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfista Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) hey, a poll for the euro winner is missing here,i hope turkish made it tonight and beat croatia and germany after that even if they'll lose the final with holland. i'm a netherland fan and i'm sure these euro has a clear color ORANJE!!!!!!!!!!! my friend. you are a very wise person. Turkey vs Holland will be a great final. and one that will not be forgotten until euro 2100 :) You are an arrogant and ignorant little toe rag aren't you?I bet on Germany to beat Portugal last night, and by your logic, I deserve a knighthood. Well if am a toe rag than you would be nothing but a dirty and broken toe nail. I am not a "SIR" and cant give you knighthood. go to queen elizabeth or sir alex ferguson for that. though Queen elizabeth would be the only one to help you in this matter. so far everything i said about euro 2008 became true where as u thought that czech would beat Turkey. I am sure you must have thought that swiss would beat turkey too. Arrogance comes with self confidence and success. I really don't care peopel calling me arrogant. Since i am also a stock broker and a currency trader in real life. I love being called arrogant in these matters. Thank you for that. Turkey for Euro 2008. Actually, I think he only wants to go to La Liga just because it's a slower game than the Premiership, so he'll have an easier season. Ruud Van Nistelrooy is a good example. Still scoring like crazy, even though he's past his best. 62 goals in 51 appearances for Real Madrid. Whereas Ronaldo has 66 goals in 163 appearances for Man United (these are only domestic appearances and goals, BTW).Ronaldo claimed that he'll hit 50 goals next season. He will if he goes to Spain, that's for sure. if ronaldo scores a total of 50 goals next season. I will give you my car. You have my word for it. It is a 2006 Alfa Romeo 159 JTDM.. the only difference with my car and this one in the pic are the wheels. mine are 17 inc and this one is 18. but mine do look better. Also this has a 4.2 engine.. These are all the differences. I got the red brakes as well. and this is the exact interior color and design. Cheers.

Martyn Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 so far everything i said about euro 2008 became true where as u thought that czech would beat Turkey. So, Turkey let Czech republic go to 2-0 up for dramatic effect did they? Face it, you were lucky, you never outclassed them as you seem to be portraying. ?10 on Croatia tonight for me. By the way, Croatia are at 1.88 to win, and Turkey are at 5.0. I'm really surprised at that, I thought Turkey would have been at about 3.0...maybe Alfista's Turkey love is rubbing off on me.

External HDD Veteran Posted June 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted June 20, 2008 Just give a lil' support, would you? :D With three player missing, it will be an interesting match. If Turkey plays at their full potential during the whole match, it may end in three different results. But playing fast in last 15 minutes in this match will probably not serve.

L3thal Veteran Posted June 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted June 20, 2008 I am Portuguese and even I think he is arrogant, or was more arrogant a few years ago. He seems to have calmed down a bit with his arrogance. Nonetheless, regardless of who the player is, mocking a player for showing his emotion after a game is absurd. Maybe I should show some Turkish players shedding some tears tonight after they lose ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641781-euro-2008/page/26/#findComment-589499001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
metallithrax Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Come on guys, we can't have Turkey losing tonight as this thread will be a lot poorer without Alfista.
