By this logic, Angelos Charisteas is the greatest European footballer of all time.
Greece weren't doing anything internationally before him. Greece hasn't done anything internationally after him. And because of him, Greece has the same number of Euros as Portugal.
The greatest European footballer we have ever seen.
What you achieved for Portugal on the international stage is unprecedented. You only have to look at Portugal's record of qualifying for major tournaments before your arrival to truly appreciate the magnitude of your impact.
You didn't just inspire a generation. You transformed the expectations, ambitions and mentality of the entire footballing world.
Your legacy goes beyond goals, trophies and records. It is beyond generational.
One message, Cristiano Roanldo. Just thank you. 🐐❤️

This is just xenophobic garbage.
Five of the eight Argentina players to play for #mufc have now been booed at Old Trafford. The club's curious love affair with Argentinians seems to be ending

I'm old school: I follow the Cook Political Report religiously and it looks their going to have a good night tonight with their mid-term projections.

A former England international suggests that an Argentina player should deliberately lose a game against England because he plays for Manchester United.
The game's gone.
😡 "Back in my day, he would have his head RIPPED off!"
🇦🇷 "He lives in our country and is dancing around with an Argentina flag in the World Cup!"

The same fanbase was calling for Leandro Paredes and Enzo Fernández to be banished from the face of the Earth this summer btw…

Every day, I become more and more grateful to the football gods for allowing this match to happen.
This was football justice.
Lisandro Martinez has been the worst player in the Premier League so far this season.
He’s now been the main man responsible for United dropping points in three matches, and his latest embarrassment at Stamford Bridge on Saturday came in three instalments.
Quite why Martinez is playing so badly is up for debate, but this can’t go on. Manchester United can’t field a player who is constantly costing them with errors that, more than anything else, look like his heart isn’t in it.
📝 @Zonal_Marking on the issue with Martinez.

Pallas final poll: Chow 53, Bradford 43
Actual result: Chow 54, Bradford 41.
First to publish. Most accurate. Within two points on every candidate.
When it counts, call us. #topoli

More of this please. Having the courage and the grace to admit error is truly lacking in this day and age.
I need to make a correction here. I had misinterpreted what one source said (and which another source confirmed in general but not in specifics). I should not have implied I had solid info about the Chow campaign's internal polling. I apologize for misleading you. 1/6

Very good explainer from someone who clearly understands basic statistics. I'd add that, based on my polling at the time this poll was released, Chow was leading by 7.
This was never a competitive mayoral race.
First of all, when calculating accuracy for polls you have to check if it falls within the margin of error.
For example: Forum’s final poll on Oct 25th (53-43) was in the +-4 MoE and the final result of 54-41.
So what’s the margin of error and why does it matter, then? In 95% of cases if you ran the poll again, it would produce a result within 4 points each way. The MoE shrinks with increased sample size. Simply put, you can say with 95% confidence that the true result is contained in that space.
If the actual result fell outside of the MoE at 95% confidence level it would be ~2 standard deviations away from the mean.
Build Canada’s October 16th poll (Bradford +4.7) had an MoE of +-3.1. The polling miss of 17.1 points (for the margin of victory) meant that the actual result was nearly 5.62 standard deviations away from the poll’s mean.
If this was just because of pure random sampling luck, this has a 1 in 51 million chance of occurring.
The poll did not reflect the voting public that showed up on October 26th. To attribute this miss solely to voter preferences swinging double digits in a week is an excuse for poor methodology.

When you look more broadly than one cherry-picked poll for comparison, the polling story of this election is actually quite interesting.
The pattern across all 11 of the final week poll results shows that the older the fieldwork, the bigger the miss. This points to a significant late stage shift in sentiment back towards Chow, not bad polling.
We polled the Toronto mayoral race in the field from Oct 11-16 and found Bradford +4.7. The final result had Chow +13 on the night. That means out of the 11 final-week polls, ours was the farthest off. If I had a do-over, we should definitely have also run a Wave 2 poll Oct 24-25.
I'm confident in our methodology, which is the same as many of the other pollsters on this list, and has been reviewed and validated by CRIC (the industry standards body for public opinion research).
I'm excited to continue to scale Build Canada's polling operations. We have big plans to do so. And I'm even more excited to be able to field polls at a price that democratizes access to public opinion research.
We're just getting started.

Polymarket just double-counts polls.
My friend pointed out a 2% spike for Chow after I released my poll on Sunday night.
Bang on. At no point did I have Bradford leading or close to leading. This was never really a contest. Olivia Chow was comfortably ahead the whole time.
Too many media want the easy - already written up - story....
Like, the BS Polls suggesting that Brad Bradford was tied and even ahead of Olivia Chow.
Too many media ran with it - any poll and press release - already done for them.
Based on the polling I had, Bradford was 10-points ahead with males over 54 years of age and only 3-points behind with females over 54 years of age.
For Chow to have won by 13-points, clearly means Chow had a much higher quality list of "identified supporters", with names, addresses & phone numbers - and they were able to get them out to vote to overcome the advantage Bradford had with 55+ voters.
Since our founding, we've dropped polls the night before E-Day six times.
We took the top spot in three of them (BC 2024, BC 2026, Toronto Mayoral 2026). And we missed the top spot in Quebec by 0.5%.
@pallasdata: We are very, very good at what we do.
Our final Toronto poll: @oliviachow 53, @BradMBradford 43.
The result: Chow 54, Bradford 41.
Number one. First with the most accurate result in the Toronto mayoral race. #TOpoli
Thank you Dean!
A big congratulations to @JosephAngolano and Pallas Data — quickly becoming one of Canada's best and most reliable polling firms.
They had the closest results in BC and Toronto, and were almost perfect in Quebec.

We were the most accurate polling firm in BC in 2024 and in 2026. #bcpoli
Our final @pallasdata #topoli poll is out.
Most likely scenario: Olivia Chow will be re-elected tomorrow, but GOTV will be a big factor, as it always is in municipal races with lower voter turnout.
🚨🚨🚨 And that's a wrap! Our final Toronto poll for this election
@oliviachow - 53%
@BradMBradford - 43%
