Neymar Jr. - v5

[Windhook]

I admit it's a great legal move by the club, they found a loophole in the legal code.

BUT

fielding Neymar tomorrow at Bernabeu means automatic 0-3 win for Real Madrid. There is no way the the Spanish Sports Tribunal (TAD) will overturn FEF's 3 match ban. I have few explanations why we are doing this:

1) Neymar won't play, it's part of the prematch mind-games.

2) Could be a smear campaign. If we win tomorrow night with Neymar on the pitch, TAD keeps Neymar's ban 100% certain, it's 3 points for Real Madrid. They win La Liga, right... but it's the most controversial title in Madrid's recent history. Given the events from Tuesday night, Viktor Kassai's MOTM performance against Bayern Munich, it will be another big blow on their sportsmanship, which they try so hard to pretend.

Don't play him. It isn't worth it. Besides, if we can't beat Real without a legal loophole we don't deserve to beat them.

Still risky business, both of those explanations:
1) It could mess with our own players as well - is he starting / will the match matter etc. - that is dangerous, because we haven't shown great mental strength this season.

2) If that is the plan, it is straight out stupid: We have no believe in ourselves then and give up in advance. Crazier things has happened than us winning a Clasico although in bad form, and RM losing 1 game afterwards. It is not even dream-like impossible, it is a very real possibility and if we give up now, we truly has become a losing club with no mentality.
Also, to attack RM's image is double-edged: It is just as likely that everyone will point to us as crybabies who always blames everyone else. They easiest part to understand for neutrals is that Neymar was banned, so good luck explaining tricky legal stuff to uphold our image as the morally right.

Can't say i like these shananigans, he didn't deserve a 3 match ban but if its not clear that he's eligible to play then don't play him.

Of course he did deserve it, it's right there in the rules! Why is he the victim here? He acted like a complete idiot, making a stupid foul for the first yellow, and even more stupid foul for the second yellow and on top of that he feels aggravated and mocks the ref who didn't even do anything wrong...

The club is looking like a fool for trying to squeeze Neymar into the game, when he brought it on himself... Sorry, but no crocodile tears this time...

clapping the 4th ref giving you 2 games is ridiculous when every player says "tu puta madre" every decision agianst them

Still, the rule is there... That it doesn't get applied in every case is a whole different issue, but it doesn't mean he didn't deserve the ban according to the rules...

I hope it`s just some kind of a stupid mind-game to leave madrid in the dark regarding our line-up. If Neymar plays and we lose the game automatically 3-0 because of that, it would be the most retarded mistake in a sea of mistakes by this board.

Instead of fully defending Neymar's actions, the board should concentrate working on his mentality. Neymar is losing at moments his reasons, in moments when his game is not on level, mistakes happen, you cannot dribble past the same defender six-seven times per match. This is not the first time this happens. The second yellow card against Malaga was a momentary lapse of reason, selfish act, Ney was not thinking about the game and teammates at all, all he wanted was to tackle the defender the same way he was challenged a moment earlier.

Barcelona leave Neymar out of squad for Clasico against Real Madrid

Wise decision. Now they can focus on the actual football.

 

[Galning]

Without him we have 0% chance .

Rip math.

 

[behindbrowneyes]

Will miss him today.

He is a massive factor in our game so it is hard to imagine Barça without Neymar these days. Should have known better and refrain from that stupid applause.

 

[Neymessi]

I don't think we are winning it without him. Would love to be proved wrong though.

 

[CatalinR10]

i don't think we would have won with him aswell
