This is going to be personal, but how many relates to this?

He has literally been my youth, I was 11 years old when Marcelo arrived to Madrid. I can't remember a day without him at Madrid really, and many doubted him at his arrival. He never ever considered leaving despite critics. Probably doesn't own a agent because why would he need one? He loves Madrid for sure 100%. Now he is a Madrid legend and one of the finest footballers I've seen at fullback IMO. I'm being sentimental but I really don't wanna see him retire... The day he retires, so will my love for football abit. I think many Arsenal fans can relate to that. The invincibles were hard to replace. It's going to be a tougher spot to replace at fullback than Roberto Carlos IMO (remember it's my opinion) because entertainment value he is up there with Ronaldinho - Because he is the only one in this game that dribbles and makes fancy passes at fullback.

Zidane - all these legendary players, I can't imagine how good it feels to see him comeback to football as a manager. You can't replace his spot in football but your love and appreciation for him is still there. So it feels good to see him as your manager. I hope Marcelo makes a comeback like that

I feel the same for Ronaldo btw. Kommander memes >>>>> Fat burger Messi

You had that whole period of anti-USA sentiment in France...  still kind of there under the surface still.  Anti-UK is just a tradition that will never go away lol.

He really did look so much like Robinho when he started with RM.
