That’s why it wasn’t a good idea to any European club to pay that amount of money to get him. He is too injury prone and now in his 30s he has already reached his cealing.
This is so tragic to me, I remember say to myself that he wasn’t injury prone at all before 2018 since he always seemed to bounce back after being clattered all the time, dude was alway in the top 10 most fouled any given year :( His foot never was the same after the first injury
That’s so sad. Oct and Fed are cursed
Just Brazilian things. It’s rare for a top Brazilian forward to stay in a top league after 30. All for different reasons but Ronaldo , Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Adriano, and now Neymar.
But Neymar especially was playing tons of games at like 15-16 years old.
Well this is depressing
October and February
Halloween and Carnavale
I think there’s some sister birthday thing which was prevalent back in the day
11th of March, so February checks out
Neymar strikes me as the type of person who will completely snap once his football career is over and he has to retire
he’s literally a massive gamer and loves CS:Go, playing poker etc. he has a well balanced love for football as he has tons of other interests outside of the game
Neymar mentally retired years ago
Yet miserable pricks still mock him and think he fakes his injuries…
What is frustrating is, I, ME, I never knew when Neymar really got injured, because there was so much diving and all the bullshit. Really sad to see him out with an ACL, speedy recovery.
Which makes me respect the general fitness of Ronaldo and Messi even more. Flamboyant dribblers do not have long selves life in this age.
Messi is even crazier, since he‘s just dribbling a lot.
ronaldo hasn’t completed a dribble in a decade
(still very impressive fitness of course, no argument there)
ronaldo hasn’t completed a dribble in a decade
This took me out. Just because it was one of the last things I was expecting to read 😄
It’s odd this dribbling ability just fell off a cliff
Which makes me respect the general fitness of Ronaldo and Messi even more.
They have great general fitness, but I don’t think there’s a thematic crossover here
Not quite Martial
Wow he’s like the Jacob Degrom of soccer
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer person
He’s a like fascist or something right? Bolsanaro? Ah Bolsonaro.
Neymar himself isn’t fascist. He just supported Bolsonaro because he got rid of his tax problems. The best word would be corrupt.
Brazilian flair players washed up by 31.
This is football heritage
Except Thiago Silva, that dude is still a beast at his age
Sad reality. Every one of the latest brazilian offensive superstars, actually. Neymar, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Adriano, Ronaldo, Rivaldo… All of them for different reasons, but all of them fell of a cliff at 31 or earlier
Coutinho and Douglas Costa too. Could probably name a few more if i think hard
he said superstars though
Ronaldo
Came back from two back to back potentially career-ending injuries to win the World Cup
Oh wow really I’ve never heard of that before!! Now seriously, ronaldo was 26-27 when he won the world cup. OP said 31. Ronaldo was fat and a shadow of himself at 31
Not Pepe tho.
How do Argentinian players fare? Geographically so close but are the football styles ever so slightly different that the Argentina players age more gracefully? Obviously the current squad is pretty young. But go a few years back.
I mean I don’t even have to discuss La Pulga but look at Di Maria, Dybala, Perez, Masche, Otamendi, etc
Anthony Davis of football
