Bullshyt. I've watched almost every game. He still gets where he needs to be and has the same skill.
He has the skills and all but physically he is passed his prime. Full stop.

You can’t be in your prime but are missing 30-40% of the available games at club level.

Neymar is not making 45+ appearances at club level anymore.

Wasn't you the one that told everyone that PSG would win the CL with Mbrappe Messi and Neymar

Messi and Mbappe never gelled together, so what? That's not much of a prediction, you took the field vs. PSG, ok so what? No gambling site would give you odds on the field vs. one team in the champions league. :mjlol:

This PSG drama of the last 10 years needs a Netflix and a HBO documentary. Riveting stuff. Mbappe forced out fukking Neymar and possibly Messi.

Let me get this straight. If Neymar played in more matches the last year or so and could still play in every single match, you're saying that he would have turned down the money in Saudi? Bullshyt. He would have taken the money either way.

You'll see more players doing it soon. Imagine making 200 mill over two years prob like tax free. My goodness. .

Like 20 generation money

[Reddit]But you don't get to play at the Bernabeu on a Wed night[\cac]


Most of these leagues are farmer leagues anyways

Yup. Denial is a hell of a thing. The Saudis are taking over the sport piece by piece and people can continue to deny it's happening but it is and there's nothing anyone can do about it. They took over golf and got a sweetheart deal with the PGA out of it. Now they are attempting Soccer and I would not be surprised if basketball is next.

We're gonna need a new left back next summer.
This summer :ufdup:
I’m very high on Sepp as you guys know but he’s on loan and he’s more for the middle/right side like Ibou, we need someone that can play a lb/lcb hybrid role and make it more of a proper back 3 badly, Caicedo is gonna help massively and him and Trent is going to be interesting and should give Ibou less work. At the same time I love him but Robbo is the weak link right now sadly :francis:
:manny:

Nothing has changed. The stars in their prime are gonna choose Europe 98 percent of the time. Saudi League have mostly signed past-their-prime 30 year Olds and mercenaries like Neves.

Alright.

Alright.

Lemme just say.

The fact that Klopp hasn't fixed the Liverpool defense is criminal.

Do you think C dot really wanted to go to Saudi in the first place? It was the only place that wanted him after Jorge Mendes hawked round the rest of Europe for months and everyone said no thanks you arent worth the hassle. That is the situation Neymar is in. Barca/Laporta only want him for the commercial aspect and get the fans on sise OMG guys i got Neymar byke for you. But he doesn't fit Xavi ideas. All these coaches whove came thru La Masia as players and/or worked under Pep are about the collective.
