So, now we are in a denial-phase called: "It's not Neymar's fault. It's Lucho and the system."
Of course that Lucho and the system are hurting our team, but...
Anyway, Neymar will now have an excuse till the end of a season, like:
It's not him, it is the system, this is why he is playing weaker.
We don't have a midfield, this is why he is playing weaker.
A team is not pressing/running/insert any random footballing action, this is why he is playing weaker.
So, now we'll have to wait for a new coach, and then when Neymar will (most likely) play the same as always, we'll have to wait for explanations and new alibi excuses from his fans about why he is still playing meh.
There is no point to bash him till then.
These guys will reply: it's Lucho. Can't you see? It is all about Lucho.
On the other hand, if a bad play is all about Lucho, then our treble was all about Lucho also, isn't it?
While, I get an impression on this thread lately:
1. when we won a treble with Lucho, we didn't win it because of Lucho. We won it because of a magic from MSN
2. but now when we play like a crap, it's not because of magical (or less magical) MSN, now it is ONLY because of Lucho
Or in short: when we play good, it's because of players, not because of Lucho.
While, when we play bad, it's not because of players, but ONLY because of Lucho
(Rakitic can't control the bouncing ball lately, but it is about Lucho...)
Lucho is guilty.
But some players also played a huge role in our horrible form. This guy is one of them.
