    Neymar didn't go to PSG to win Ligue 1 titles. But I am not talking about titles. Back then Serie A was still the top league. Ronaldo didn't go down in quality of leagues nor team because Barca weren't what they are today...and neither Inter were irrelevant as they are today.

    uefa cup was great back then but still just only one tittle at moratti's best inter milan is not really impressive. ligue 1 is easy to win for psg but neymar has been great. even in ucl,he just be injured too much,past two seasons psg didnt have neymar in knock out stage except the first leg against real madrid.
    of course r9 was a beast at international level,not many players can compare to him

    he has been injured though this may be his fault for not taking his body carefully(lack of training,bad diet)
    as i said above,r9 simply fit barca perfectly. at barca he had ivan de la pena,guardiona,giovanni,figo and his explosive dribbling,one touch link up to his partner simply fit barca style of play.
    moving to inter milan,a team that didnt bring the best out of r9 (he was still brillant before injuries),won just one tittle, is wrong move to me

    We don't know what would have happened if he stayed. But La Liga was also easier to play back then compared to Serie A. So in terms of clubs, he at least went sideways. In terms of league, he probably went up in quality. Neymar took a step down in both categories.

    Nothing wrong with the players on the field. Ref is screwing City big time.

    Could easily have had two penalties. Meriner is one of the worse referees in PL, even Europe.

    Klopp comes in and builds a team, Valverde comes in and destroys a team.

    FA made a conscious effort to not make the ref review the video unless it's extremely necessary. As to not slow the game down more than necessary. Basically the people in the VAR room are making the calls. Apparently they've 0 plays that have been reviewed by the ref on the field this season. So pundits are bitching that it's not transparent. In Brazil they are bitching because the ref is reviewing too much. It's a mess. People even bitching about the millimeter offside calls. I am starting to think VAR is a mistake.

    Didn't think the goals were really the fault of the defense. Just really good goals.

    If anything this Liverpool-City game further proves that Valverde is not the main culprit for our woes.

    Pep is getting spanked every single season in important games away from home despite unlimited budget and a team that should be easy to motivate. EVERY one:

    1-3 vs. Liverpool (possible PL title decider)
    0-1 vs. injury-ridden Spurs (CL knockout)
    0-3 vs. Liverpool (CL knockout)
    1-3 vs. Monaco (CL knockout)

    Now imagine Pep with this current bunch of Barca players away from home in CL games. You think he will do better?

    Taison was sent off after kicking the ball into the crowd and flipping them off in reaction to racist chants. Left the field in tears. Players went to dressing room for 5 mins then game back and restarted the match. I am sure that showed the fans a lesson ... :rolleyes:

    Ronaldo subbed off at the 55th min of the Milan x Juve derby. Went straight to dressing room. Mother will probably blame the football mafia.
