Out of the blue just been watching some highlights of Vin this season, unbelievable, sometimes because we follow the team and watch every min of every game, some of the stuff can seem routine, he was absolutely monstrous this season, i stress when the games are actually being played and don't enjoy enough, but now that the season is over i can just watch and enjoy the otherwordly stuff he pulled off game after game, an enormous leap he has taken re his end game, can't wait for next season to start just to see this guy play
Watching his interview right now live on Brazilian TV. Nothing relevant so far. Ill try to post some highlights in the morning.
He improved in small steps that you don't notice when you watch him all the time, but when you jump from 2020 to 2022 the difference is huge I feel.
Vini being cheered on his "return" to Maracanã. This shows how much affection the fans still have and will always have for him.
🎙| Tite: “We were in training and I told Vini: ‘You are the Neymar of 2014.’” @marca pic.twitter.com/sJzKNDHQAM— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) June 28, 2022 🎙| Tite: “I asked Ancelotti for advice on what we could do, what tactical functions they did in Madrid to help Vini play like he does in Madrid.” @marca— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) June 28, 2022
🎙| Vinicius: “Am I an idol at Real Madrid? No, I'm only 21 years old. I want to follow players like Karim, Modric, Marcelo, who won 5 UCL titles. I want to get as close to them as possible. That's when someone can call me that.” pic.twitter.com/P1jBgGrU5P— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) July 5, 2022 🎙| Vinicius: ”Balon d’Or? it’s something that has to come naturally. Karim is 35 years old and now he will win it, Modric won it at 33, I have many years to evolve, a very long road for if God wants me to win it one day." pic.twitter.com/IjmTQXdKeh— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) July 5, 2022 🎙| Vinicius: “ Benzema repays the affection I have for him. He was a player I followed. I'm a big fan and being able to play with him today is incredible. He recently in an interview put me in his top 5 in the world so I'm really happy.” pic.twitter.com/fR5UFBxoZA— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) July 5, 2022
Really hope this kid exceeds Neymar and other Brazilian great wide attackers who came before him. Hope Rodrygo finds his way as well and exceeds the "Kings" who recently came before him (Robinho and Neymar). It would be amazing to see both succeed and only have to think about CF when Benzema goes back to Lyon.
I just hope Vinnie has the legendary Brazilian fullback's longevity, and not their attacking players.
Real Madrid update: Vinícius Júnior has signed the new contract! It’s now done after verbal agreement revealed last month. 🚨⚪️ #RealMadridNew deal will be valid until 2027, as Florentino Pérez wanted.The club will decide the best moment to announce it - but it’s now signed. pic.twitter.com/thJLxToci4— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 9, 2022
In a perfect world, he would win the Golden boot at the Qatar WC. But it's setup for the Emir to give it to his favorite pet. If they can bribe dozens of Fifa/Federation officials, they can bribe a few refs.
He has the endurance. Passed a very difficult stage in his career being criticised day by day for two seasons.
The Best @Benzema 🤍 pic.twitter.com/4b1SzPdAgO— Vini Jr. (@vinijr) August 25, 2022 A POR LA 15 🤍🫡— Vini Jr. (@vinijr) August 25, 2022 I love everything about this kid
He's the exception to the last generation of players like the Pogbas, Neymars and Hazards who have an inflated ego and have far too many distractions. Vinicius has proven many people wrong, including me, that he has the mental fortitude that many rising stars didn't possess in the last decade. Barring injury, he'll get better and better.
For me, Vinicius and Fede are the two younger players in our squad who just look like they have an elite mentality. Rodrygo is in the same ball park.
Imagine if Vini pulled this out in a game 🥶(via @realmadrid) pic.twitter.com/eR6rbhykAS— ESPN FC (@ESPNFC) August 26, 2022 The Ronaldinho no look is the icing on the cake, its his shooting technique that is the most impressive. He improved so much in that area
