Neymar Jr. - v5

[BBZ8800]

and somehow equal a goal per game, so he doesnt score (and it pisses me off also), but he assists!

He scored 4 La liga goals in 12 matches this season.
He scored in only 3 matches out of 12.
He had 9 La liga matches where he didn't score.
He hasn't scored in 7 La liga matches in a row.

He is in Top3 most paid players in the world, right?

I don't want to be rude, but from a top3 paid player in the world, I am expecting "slightly" more against Alaves, Deportivo, Valencia, Granada, Malaga, Sociedad and similar.

THIS.

He needs to stop all this Bieber crap and step up.

Neymar is part of the celebrity culture which has infected the club. We need a great team culture not a Galactico culture where we keep renewiñg contracts for insane amounts.

Scoring isn't everything. He already has 13 assists to make up for his lack of goals. Any other player would be getting some recognition and praise for that. His role seems to have changed this season again, as well.
He's not playing very well for Barça, but still is for Brazil. There are several players underperforming. Why I think the fault lies elsewhere, in the current tactics.

A very clear attempt to potray half facts and prove a point.

Can't believe that a guy like you who is so fixated with stats hasn't seen his assist stats of the season so please see them just in case you haven't.
He already has some kind of assist record in the champions league even though the group stage is not over.
And this is just the assists,if you look at his dribbles key passes etc you will see how important he is in the team and he is not the reason why we are playing shit and even though he isn't at his best.

Pretty bad try to prove he has been shit for a while by highlighting his goalscoring and whatever it is about the beiber thing that someone said above is bs also.
He can have swag and all those childish preference and whatnot but thats his own choice and what matters is his on pitch performance.

 

[Neymessi]

And still has higher salary than motha fukin Messi.

Hahahahahahahhaahahhahahahahaha. NO.

He doesn't have a salary higher than motha fuckin messi

 

[TornAndFrayed]

Hahahahahahahhaahahhahahahahaha. NO.

...but he does, until Messi renews.

Who cares about his 5 assists vs Celta by the way. It was great, but obviously after that his assists stats look jacked. I don't think anyone here thinks that Neymar is awesome creatively this season. Well maybe a couple guys, but hey. That said, I agree one shouldn't bring up his lack of goals without at least acknowledging his assists.

As per the dribbling, well, a lot of it is ineffectual sideways dribbles. Which I'm totally fine with Neymar doing, but these moves get picked up as successful dribbles and tweak the picture. Messi remains the more effective dribbler by far, but basic dribbling stats won't show that.

 

[DonAK]

Neymar is paid 16m net. Messi is on 20+ already.

Suarez is also getting paid 16m soon.

Obviously MARCA reported it was 25m, but it's laughable to even take their word on anything related to Barca.

 

[Richard.H]

I always worry about chemistry problems with MSN. I know there haven't been any but I'm talking about the future. Can Neymar continue being this much of a provider to Messi and Suarez? What if Messi continues being godlike for the next 5-6 years? Will Neymar stay patient and accept his role?

Questions like this always give me anxiety. I think Neymar is an amazing footballer but I'm sure even he knows he can be the main man in almost any other team.

 

[Neymessi]

...but he does, until Messi renews.

No he doesn't. Really laughable if you seriously think he earns more than messi now.

That said, I agree one shouldn't bring up his lack of goals without at least acknowledging his assists.

The season we won the treble, neymar only scored and hardly assisted. The next year he was a mix of both and as of now this season he is more of a creator. Even his worst of games this season he has given an assist or created one really good chance that should have been finished which is not taken into account by many so yeah he is creating fine and the treble season shows out forwards don't need to score and assist both.

Messi still makes more, 20m to Neymar's 16m. Messi's next contract is rumored to not have an increase in wages for that, but some new deal regarding his image rights.

Well, he didn't go to psg because he wants to play with Messi. Ney sr gave one interview stating that, not long ago. Psg offered a fortune, and his father wanted the move. Neymar's reason to stay is that he wants to play with Messi.

 

[TornAndFrayed]

I thought he did earn more until the renewal. I guess Marca did run a great disinformation campaign !

No he doesn't. Really laughable if you seriously think he earns more than messi now.

It's a detail. I got it wrong but don't see what's laughable about it. It's not unthinkable considering the pace at which money grows in the sport.

No opinion on the need to score or assist. Forwards need to play well. Neymar has been mediocre in 2016. I'm not rubbing it in for him only, Suarez had a good 2016 still but has been very mediocre for about 6 weeks.

Never believe Marca. Basura, as Alves wisely said.

I dont put all to much blame on Neymar currently I wanna see how he does with Iniesta back and hopefully a rejuvenated midfield and if he still continues to play poorly I'll agree with the criticism he's getting. I just dont think it's a coincidence that both Suarez and Neymar has performed bad since Iniesta was injured and our midfield was destabilized.

Neymar has been bad way before this season's shipwrecks which started in october. But i agree with you that when the whole team sucks criticizing our forwards becomes quite moot.

i never read that stuff, but did hear about it here and maybe elsewhere too.

 

[evilhita666]

So, is he going to Paris or Brazil to party? He's suspended/injured today and also suspended on the weekend, so it's time to go visit Chloe, right? I'll be disappointed if he stays...
