What are your thoughts on Juan Ramon Riquelme












Could have done with Ozil at some point in this game. Struggled all game unlocking this defence
No Crespo was still in his prime. The problem is that as an Argentine kid he fell in love with Milan.. Not just the club but the City, food, bytchs, the fact that footballers were treated like Demi Gods in Iitaly. Inter Milan had a gang of Argentines too that time who used to play with Crespo at River Plate and all these guys live in the same neighborhoods whether you play for Milan or Inter.
Basically he was having the time of his life and playing for a laid back OG like Ancellotti.. Then he was literally forced to go to Chelsea, he didn't wanna go in 2005 either and Mourinho didn't want or need him so he was allowed to stay at Milan on loan. England had garbage food, weird football culture, strict coaches, average looking broads, terrible weather, new language etc etc the contrast between that and Milan just made Crespo lose his love and feel for the Game. Be even spoke of his depression at the time. His season highlights for 2006 are fire still.
This 90th minute winner at Wigan
You know what's crazy the only time i FEEL football now is big decisive CL knock out games. Especially quarter finals onwards.
That Madrid vs Juve tie last season was just an all out war![]()

he was a multi-millionaire, living in London. He can afford to go anywhere and eat.Did you follow and watch footballWhere'd you get that from?:jagsdafuq:
It was because his wife couldn't adapt to life in London.
He himself said that he enjoyed it when he was at Chelsea.

Fellas it's been great while it lasted. I've been watching football for over 20 years. You won't see me posting on this thread ever again. It was amazingreminiscing on past legends like Riquelme etc.
Most so-called football fans just wanna have trivial arguments about absolutely nothing.
If any one knows any forums or sites or even whatsapp groups dedicated to a more mature grounded "purist" football fan please do share. Any place where there's little argument goofy stuff.
I lurked the Coli for close to 5 years. The quality of posts has truly plummeted since those 2012-2014 days, i digress.
