Thanks for the information, appreciated.
Last time I was in Nice I went to a restaurant with my Barca jacket on and had a nice chat with one of the waiters who happens to like us (Barca) for both football and handball and he told me how dominant Barca Lassa Handball team is in Europe etc.
German fans are on a different level, sometimes too enthusiastic and hard-core (for example German fans protesting Monday night games and Bayern fans protesting the color of their short being blue etc.) to my liking.

Jones fracture? Nasty injury, and happens to athletes who are either huge (Embiid type guy) or explode too hard from a planted foot. Neymar tends to telegraph his dribbles and take hard planted steps to cut or accelerate. Also his style of dribbling invites bad challenges while he's off balance, leading to heavy falls. Guys like Messi/Hazard are more braced when they fall because they don't overdo any of the above habits that Neymar does, and have a strong center of gravity.
This type of fracture often recurs and affects the career long term. Neymar is in a very problematic position tbh. It's likely that he misses the United fixture and that PSG end up losing, but he could also be out for even longer and not play any further rounds if they do make it. That'll be 2 missed CL seasons in his prime, and a WC where he underperformed badly, followed by maybe missing the Copa America or being out of shape for it.
I don't know if it'll affect him to the point that he declines soon, but I wouldn't be too surprised. Big, recurring injuries can derail careers quickly. This was a big worry when Messi kept tearing his hamstrings *knock on wood *

Cant stand PSG fans or that plastic club founded in the 70s. I only respect Paris FC fans

Your right. Paris was an exageration for the point. France is more correct to say.
LaLiga was a similar case prior to the empty stadium fines. Only Barcelona and Madrid would garner full stadiums thanks to multiple reasons.

Suits him well that his career has been on a downward spiral on every front ever since the idiotic snake left us dry. I for once enjoy his dismiss and sincerely hope that he will do a "Ronaldinho" or "Brazil classic" and decline within the next 1-2 seasons as he is slowly approaching 30 and irrelevancy.
I used to like him as a player but that ended after his freakshow during the summer of 2017. That can never be forgotten from my part. Not only that, I feel that he has declined as a player in the farmer's league. Ball hogging has reached a whole new level and the number of senseless dribbles. He was extremely poor during the World Cup as well.
I am not wishing him injury but I won't lament him being injured or feel pity for him. He is in a place in his career that is entirely his own doing. You wanted to screw this club over and the fanbase that almost always took your side despite numerous controversial behaviors and now fate has screwed you over. Poetic justice.

What i was trting to say was that when Neuer first got the injury he was out for around 3 months as well and then when it happened for a second time he was out for a year.
Severity of the injury also matters i guess.
He was clearly not fit for World Cup. When he came back from Russia and started the season, he was also terrible. He didn't have that quickness of the feet, that acceleration that is so crucial to his (dribbling) game.
Few months into the season, he was back to his level.
For me, he is second to Messi only. Such an incredible player
Problem are not the players, Neymar has always been fouled (most player fouled on top of Messi in la Liga i think).
Problem is the cunt ref that can't officiate and give yellow cards when they commit offences. If he had, they would have played less brutally in order to not get sent off, pretty simple.
Hate those refs, no wonder they can't go to big competitions (except one, that is shit as well).
