I'm rooting for both Lille and Atletico to take the leagues.

Me too. Would be huge for Lille.

 

[Magma]

kind of incredible to consider that if lille hold on they'll have won the league twice since lyon and marseille last won it, when you factor in lille previously before 2011 hadn't won since the 50's

Last time they won the title was back in 2011, thought it was longer than that.

 

[drd23]

Could be especially significant given Madrid need to beat Villareal on Sunday to have any hope of winning LaLiga (although Villareal is expected to rest most of their players ahead of the UEL final)

Chinese Super League 2nd division lols

The rich man bought the club and regarded his 126 kg son as the main player. (newsline.news)

Waiting for the "what about Mo Salah?"

No aneurysm. It's expected to be heavily weighted towards United players early on as they have dominated the Premier League.

What I dont like about the whole thing is what about the great players of the past? Dalglish, Keegan, Dixie Dean, Best, Rush, Barnes, Charlton, Law, Hansen, Banks, Bobby Moore, Hurst, Hunt, Greaves etc etc

It should be English Football HOF so it can also honour the greats of the past. Because football existed before 1992.

He will go in eventually.

He's three goals shy of becoming just the 30th player to score 100 PL goals. He will keep climbing too obviously.

Would need to be in the league another 4-5 years I would think.

I'd think probably only another 2 he's already done enough for that club.

Eh, I suppose so, just feels a very short stint to get in the HOF.

I believe given the timeframe and what you've accomplished in it should be considered so say someone like Bruno if he was to leave now and has only been with us for a season and a half, don't you think he should be in the HOF, I get the whole short stint but the mans won 4 player of the month awards in a calendar year, up for player of the year just ridiculous amount of individual awards he's already racked up.

One more season and he's a lock. Once he gets past 100 goals. He's won the league, holds the record for most goals in a season. Has won two Golden Boots and may get a third this season. A ton of other individual awards. He walks into the hall like an Egyptian.

IMO another 2 seasons of 20-30 goals would do it. I reckon he stays for another 3-4 seasons before heading back to Italy. I hope at least!!!

 

[jod23]

In total or 4-5 more seasons?

I mean he has already notched up 4 seasons.

But he has to play in total 8-9 seasons to get in? Yeesh...

4 seasons is a cameo, 8 seasons is enough to be considered a legend. Should Suarez get in?

3 and a half season probably isnt enough for Suarez. But does have a few awards to fall back on. Golden Boot, Player of the Year as well. He'd be borderline considering it's only 3 and a half seasons.

Salah though already has 4 and isnt going anywhere so I can see him easily going in eventually.
