Do you have to turn every thread into a pointless Paulinho debate?

not actually true.
What is it about Paulinho that you are not rating ?
touch, control, passing, vision, technical ability, pace perhaps. he goes box-to-box well and gets onto the end of things but i don't see a very complete footballer. i know bringing up a mark lawrenson point is going to completely devalue my opinion but during the confeds he described paulinho as "ok" and "wooden" - that's exactly what i see too. i'll agree that dembele hasn't been at his best for a while, why that is i'm not sure but he's just so much more graceful with the ball and physically superior too. i know they're not 100% exactly the same type of player but if i'm picking one alongside say sandro, then it's still the moose for me.
That's probably why Paulinho kept Ramires out of Brazil team...i like ramires who is practically the same player as paulinho, just he seems to do everything tidier and quicker.

only because ramires was disciplined for turning up late to meet with the squad, he's back in the team now.
He's back in the team as well as, not at the expense of, Paulinho though.
oscar's been injured though so one of them will lose their place when he's back. even then, it's only the opinion of the brazil coach.
How do I load the podcast once it's downloaded on the iPhone App? I can't seem to find it.
Any chance of getting Troy on a couple times a month...or more. Once a week would be great.Fascinating to read all this. Troy was brilliant, among the best episodes that we've ever produced purely because he was willing to talk to openly. Thanks everyone for listening. We're planning a Hazard/Roberts pod very soon.
All the best
