Funny this one.
If Messi was leaving, Pique was leaving, or Iniesta was leaving, even ALBA was leaving, I'd feel a sense of loss, sadness and worry.
Yet, with Neyboy, I don't feel a thing. He cost us an arm and a leg, literally. His transfer to us brought so much scandal around the club, he came with enormous expectation, yet only flashed here and there, never consistently performing enough to dislodge Leo as the best player, or even be ahead of Cristiano permanently IMO. He's a petulant boy, and I emphasize that word. Daddy Neymar is the one clearly in charge of swaying his little head, a man who is swayed by financial gain and drama. I saw someone call them the Kardashians of the football world, and man, what an accurate statement.
Neymar has grown up, he's 25, the 'peak' of a professional footballer, and to be quite honest, he's not even close to what I expected personally. I thought by now we'd have someone quite clearly the established 2nd best footballer alive, and one of the greatest of the last 100 years, but his ability to disappear for large parts of our previous seasons has brought much frustration. I remember when he was a big part of the PSG 6-1 resurgence and people talked about him 'rescuing us' and Messi being invisible. Yet, I always thought, ''what about the other 200 times Messi won us games?''
Thats the difference between him and the Messis, Ronaldinhos etc. They did it consistently, they said little to the press, they just got on with it, they kept outside life stable (Ronnie's later years excluded) and they honored the fact that they played for the best club in the world, and in Leo's case, still does all these things. Messi or Ronaldinho are welcome back at the Nou Camp at any time, Neymar never will be.
He gave us some moments of magic, but ultimately for 200+ million Euros, he can literally get fucked in each, and every way. We will be alright guys, because no matter how many times the media say next season, ''Neymar is solely missed on the left,'' just remember how he's fucked us with the way he's left the club.
Adios prick.
