Diamonds are Forever Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) 31 minutes ago, marty_j said: Neymar spent all night on his arse or rolling about I've noticed this before with him but he's a nightmare when you are trying to chase the game. He constantly takes too many touches and allows the opposition to get back in shape, and when he is fouled (because of taking too many touches) he rolls around for ages, again allowing the opposition to re-organise. That's all perfect when you are 1-0 up with 10 minutes to go, he's ideal for that situation and can completely kill a game by keeping the ball, winning fouls and then rolling around for 2 mins. But when you're losing you need to keep the ball moving and keep the game going to allow momentum to build. The way he plays makes that difficult.

Reeks of “yer da days he doesn’t track back so he’s shite” mentality For the same reason people enjoyed seeing the likes of Gerrard & Terry fail. While obviously being a tremendous player, he is quite clearly a stuck up arsehole. Understandable if he was 19/20 but at 28 he should be the one pushing his team on, rather than engaging is petulant shite and greetin faced antics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Not really a contest, Bayern doing what Bayern do. Best squad on the planet and its not even close. Zero idea why theyre letting Thiago leave, mind you.Bayern showed a it more to their strengths too though since the prevailing g narrative was that they cant really defend agaisnt PSG with their high line and therefore will have to outscore them. They were pretty solid at the back but Neuer was superb. Have to agree re Thiago, theres zero reason to let someone like him go, since there are very few midfielders of his type kicking about. Must be his choice. They mentioned Liverpool for him which was a bit of a surprise to me really, but what a signing that would be. You dont often see Europes top puppetmaster midfielders in the EPL really. Considering they were wanking over the contributions of Jordan Henderson last season, Thiago will control games for them and make it look easier than he does now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Kimmich will just move to central midfield with Pavard as first choice right back so Thiago won't leave an immediate absence in that team. Bringing in Sane for Perisic on the other hand should be a significant upgrade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like Perisic, although Sane is faster, bit more direct etc, Perisic is one of those wingers who looks like he shouldnt really be very good as a winger, but yet somehow manages to be be quite effective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Aldo Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 PSG must have spent about a billion euros in an attempt to win the Champions League only to get to the final and lose to a goal scored by a player who came through their academy. Shame. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
