Neymar Jr. - v5

[TornAndFrayed]

Thats because Messi starts his dribbles in front of the box, while Neymar is basically right next to the touchline

True enough. It's also harder to dribble closer to the box & center.

Thats why he attempts less dribbles

Sure but so what ?

Fans of the club rooting for their own players would be kinda crazy if you read this topic. Ideal outcome for some would be a win in every game but Ney (and MAtS) playing awful just to get you off.

You can't compare the end product of a player who runs less than 8 km, through the middle, to a player who has to run 2km+ more, make interceptions, chase fullbacks etc and is obliged to stay on the wing.

If you look at it, the system is made for Messi to shine. Why did Henry and Sanchez have worse stats here?

Messi would be the first one to dismiss the idea of replacing Neymar with someone else. Messi knows if Neymar leaves he will have to run much more to bring the ball up the field. If you think about it Neymar does a lot of dirty work for him.

You don't have a slightest clue. It upsets me watching him play bad (and he has been bad more than good for us) as it affects the team. As I am sure his "heroics" do the same to many others who aren't his fans but Barca fans.
And no, sorry, I am not fan of useless tricks he does in middle od the pitch where he makes those "mom" performance dribbles or provokes fouls dragging the ball instead of playing more fluid. And don't get me started with his smug attitude while at it.

Now go get off to these "awful"comments.

Be a doll then and say that to Potroh who is the one bringing up Messi.

..And of course you can compare the end product, it's called taking circumstances into account. Your idea that Messi would run more without Neymar is funny, I guess many would like Neymar to leave if remotely true.

Henry and Sanchez had worse stats then who ?

About dribbles, we should team up two best dribblers in Europe.
Success is guaranteed.

We will have 90 mins of insane dribbles on both wings with zero end product.
Messi is done.
It is time for a lethal NST trio.
http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/39695746

Top 6:
1. Adama
2. Hazard
3. Allan Saint-Maximin
4. Neymar
5. Zaha
6. Messi

Real will have goals and CLs
We will have the best dribblers in the world

Must suck knowing how much you want a certain player of a team you love to fail and leave the club, but knowing deep inside that it won't happen.

Sad.

We all know very well, including you yourself, that if neymar had superior goalscoring stats and not so great dribbling stats, you would be somehow painting the picture and arguing how goals aren't a big deal and how he sucks at dribbling etc.

 

[Barcaman]

Nah we dont.
We do know that you dont really care how Barca plays as long as Neymar does well and that you'll be first to sign up to any club forum when Ney leaves and then annoy regular fans there as well.

Stats mean shit, you should know that as a barca fan, the only thing that matters is how every pieces are put together to achieve perfect harmony. That's the only way to produce beautiful and efficient gameplay. That's the barca way. The way that allowed us to rule the football world for a decade.

Neymar is the personification of everything wrong about the MSN approach, which is excessive individualism.

Like I said he is never in the tempo, it's like he is playing the game on his own. That doesnt mean I'm putting him on the selling list, he is too much talended for that. He must get better in some key aspects of the game.

He got the skills now he needs to develop his football IQ.
