Does anyone actually fukk with Neymer? For such a talented player he doesn't invoke the same reaction as CR7, Messy, or even someone like Zatlan in his prime. I can't think of a player who tries so hard to style on people but, comes off as lame

I always love Brazil blue over their yellow.

I fukked with him heavy a few years ago. Thought he had next on some best of the new breeds shyt. I don't really give a fukk about him now tho. He straight but he ain't legendary

What's happened to all the under the radar talent attacking talent aged 20-24.

There is quality talent there, but this has been Tite’s team for years now. There’s just a lot of players out there and the older more experienced nunch have been called rightfully so..we’ve got super subs on the bench in Douglas Costa and Firmino and hell even Fernandinho who I rate very much

This this and this he feels he is on the Messi C.Ronaldo level but he aint.

He don't even coma anywhere close to the legends of Romario bebeto Ronaldo Ronaldinho. He is just like most of this current generation of footballers over hyped over rated look at Pogba samething

agreed. if he realized it, it may help him get to that level. but i dont forsee it. i cant wait for costa rica to sneak a goal

 

[QuintessentialMan]

Brazil just need to stay switched on defensively and stay organized. Someone will create something eventually. Costa Rica have impressed and Navas is not playing around.

Neymar needs to be dropped intil at least the last 16, clearly not fit

 

[Mané Swagincha]

Neymar is good, but to me the moment he joined Barca, let me know he really ain't about that life. He is closer to everyone else than he is too C dot and Messi. But don't get it twisted like Messi he has unrealistic expectations just because of who has gone before for his country. And Neymar generally plays well for Brasil, he performed in 14 and his pen vs Germany to win the Olympic shows he can rise to the big occasion. But playing with Messi has really phucked him up because he wants everything going thru him like Messi had at Barca.

Going to Barce was actually good for his career, I initially wanted him to go to a team that would be his, but he learned alot playing at Barce, about being a team player, but he’s taken a step backwards going to PSG as there, he is a spoiled brat, like he was at Santos, and whatever he wants he gets, and that doesn’t really help him be a team player

 

[BigMan]

Firmino should be playing

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Lord please keep us from getting embarrassed like Argentina :neypray:

 

[DStyles]

Navas

 

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

Brazil blowing chances after chances

 

[Fenian]

Brazil right now has no rhythm and they need to stop sending everything through Neymar. I'll say this though, as long as Brazil's defense is organized and plays well they will always have a chance.

On a side note, the Messi vs Ronaldo stan wars is straight

Yep, been having to deal with a bunch of idiots who only watch the sport every 4 years trying to tell me why Messi is a fraud.

Your right it was good for him, but he knew he was second, so he had to humble himself. Like I said he wants that Messi status, seeing what Messi could get away with, within the function of the team, he wanted exactly that, he has that and like you said as a player he has gone backwards back to his old ways.

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

Costa Rica lucky as hell.

 

[yseJ]

Navas is really world class

anyone that thinks so other wise.

He always was. As a Madrid fan I never get why they always try to push these new goalie rumors when they have a world class keeper already. Sure he has some gaffes but almost never in big games.

Yep, been having to deal with a bunch of idiots who only watch the sport every 4 years trying to tell me why Messi is a fraud.

Some don't remember that after 2 games in 2014 it was the same dumb arguments with the names reversed.

And the LeBron comparisons
