11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

[Kohe321]

Found this: "As Suarez attempted to intercept the ball, Neymar attempted a sombrero, which involves flicking the ball over the opponents head. Neymar sucessfuly flicked the ball over Suarez’s head, but stretched too far trying to keep control of the ball, when he felt a a tweak in his groin."

I bet somewhere in Bilbao, Mikel San José is laughing maniacally.

That's what happens when you don't have any capable substitute at all and simply play every minute of every match.

We really need better alternatives than Sandro and Munir.

 

[Alik]

When Pedro was here, a lot of people said we'd be fine with just Sandro/Munir.

When Pedro was here, a lot of people said we'd be fine with just Sandro/Munir.

Really? That surprises me, because I think a lot of people were upset as well, because they knew Sandro/Munir just couldnt replace him. I would have moved Pedro ONLY If there was good replacement, which there wasn't.. I was upset Pedro leaving, but I understand his reasoning. He wanted to be the #1 guy and he also wanted new challenge, so it was probably the best thing to let him leave.

All-in all, it was probably better to let Pedro go, because it's never good to have unhappy players in your team.

No thats not the problem, I remember that back in 2012 he always had some insane sequence of matches and never got injured.

EG:

3 matches in 5 days --- 90 minutes, Olympics Final against Mexico (Sunday, 11 August), 90 minutes, International Friendly against Sweden (Wednesday, 15 August) & traveled from Sweden to Brazil to play 90 minutes against Figueirense (Thursday, 16 August).

2 matches in 2 days --- 90 minutes, International Friendly against Japan (Wednesday, 16 October) & traveled back from Poland to Brazil to play 90 minutes against Atletico Mineiro and score a golazzo (Thursday, 17 October).

Neymar is the most important Barca player at the moment. Without him we just look like a good team , not the best in the world.

Don't say that Catalin. We need all three of them. They are one together

At the moment it's true. He's playing better than Messi.

 

[Alarcón]

He is better than Messi

 

[DonAndres]

It is, but no need to undermine a player who wasn't at fault for today. Messi was our only good performer overall and turned it on after scoring his goal. I expect more from him but the upward trend is there. Not his fault Mathieu has a 1 digit IQ. Neymar is performing better than Messi but today's draw is completely independent of that, we should have been comfortable with that 2-0 lead regardless.

 

[Sterlingfan2000]

He is currently best barcelona player. No doubt about it

 

[NotInHere]

Are you guys serious? This tie had nothing to do with neymar not playing, and Messi played well.. I swear sometimes you guys surprise me

But Sandro offered absolutely nothing. I think we could've outscored them pretty easily with Neymar up front.

 

[lmcr17]

neymar got overrated fast you guys sound like the people in the bpl

 

[El Flaco]

As I said in the chat, we missed the best player in the world (at the moment of course) today.
