Sure but "not even close". :) His first (half)season for us...7 goals and 5 assists in 15 apps for a midfielder is not bad at all. Neymar had 12 goals in his last season with us.

I didn't miss him tonight tbh. If defence had been any better....

Considering his age, I think he has bright future, but still needs to learn.

Get close? Seems more intelligent then him, also more lethal.

Best Brazilian player? :worthy:

This. 4 goals in last 19 games is just bad. Like I said couple of seasons ago "against" MAtS that we need a GK who can save us from defeat in at least couple of games per season when we underperform, so we need a striker that will do the same. Luckily MAtS found his way through, but Suarez is...

He actually overplayed Modric.

When he's off, he's off and painful to watch. Tonight he was good.

The type of pressing required from him in the 1st half wouldn't exert much energy. It's a minimum effort required to press opponent when they're 2 meters away from him. I don't think it's energy preservation strategy, but clear laziness. When motivation kicks in he exerts that extra percent that...

tbh, Ronaldo did huge work before the goal, but Messi's goal was way, way harder to deliver.

He has his weaknesses, but for the most part I think Valverde is to blame for not giving him enough chances when he clearly deservers.

His walking and absence of pressing is obvious and it is costing us at times. If he won't run, someone else must. This is sort of fine in small games, but watching him walk in clasico is depressing. Also lost couple of balls, so he had shitty moments it has to be said. Pointing that out is not...

People here need to stop overreacting on every criticism. No one is shitting on him. Lio was off for the big part of the game, but managed to pull off that goal after uncalled foul on Varane. He was both, hot and cold.

Yeah, I need to see the replay also.

Was that a foul against Suarez in the 1st half?

Terrible referee. We were compensated for that red with a foul against Varane.

He had many chances to receive the ball, but was denied from Rakitic or someone else.

Did he even touched Marcelo's face? Looks like typical provocation and overreaction by Marcelo.

Yeah, not looking good so far tbh. With him not pressing and losing balls, beside slow Rakitic and Busquets, we are very, very vulnerable to counters.
