they probably will drop off if they don't go to a better league. You can dominate for a couple of seasons but then you regress to the average of a league

So Messi and Ronaldo are just average players now?

If you're not Sparta, Plzeň or Slavia in a year they aren't shit then you're playing a-league standard

Mladá Boleslav 1511


club Elo 2762
Celtic 1559
Rangers 1203

club Elo 2906
Huddersfield 1462

only Aussie players who will play in games with a higher Elo total are
Ryan in La Liga

Rogic when Celtic play Champion League games 
Jonas when his team play Ajax and PSV, and  4 games of of 6 in  Europa league group stage
Jeggo when Sturm Graz plays Salzburg

Watched the Old Firm and yeah Rogic was on fire, i think there was a comment on twitter saying it looked like he was filming an ad for Nike the way he was dancing around Rangers players. The thing that most impressed me though was his physicality, no place for cowards in a game like that and looked like the boss out there. on to Camp Nou now.
Said the exact same thing last night. The lad was not only winning headers and holding off his opposing man but he was nearly always the first to second balls. He was even being double marked at points and still managed to take the piss with them.

It was one of his best performances ever in a Celtic shirt, after spending hours on a plane and slogging it in the desert and he did it in a match that's played at absolutely frantic pace. Just a delight to watch.

Out of interest why was he pulled after 53 mins? Due to his game in UAE during the week?

Because he would be knackered. Hours on a plane to Australia and back via the UAE are not the best preparation for a derby game that's always played at 90mph.

Armstrong is a more direct player as well rather than a playmaker and I'm sure Rodgers was smelling blood when he put him on.

Good news - De Silva gets a start v GA Eagles.

Feyenoord completely dominating. Jones with not much to do.



By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Forgot about Jones, how was the one goal against?
Just saw the third goal, to easy, that defending was horrible
De Silva starting as a striker

goodwin and Davidson starting for their respective teams

Glad I chose the other one then and it has two Aussies, but good to hear about De Silva.
Davidson might still be a bit rusty, he get's a lot of coverage (probably because he came from the championship), but has been average in defence and a bit low average going forward. I would still be choosing Smith, but Davidson could still be rusty.

The other game finished 1-1, it was pretty terrible as well, kick and rush longball heaven. Davidson got more involved in the second half though.
