Neymar had awesome talent, no doubts about that. But he was always immature and not driven enough. Once he left Barcelona and became a Dionysus at PSG everything quickly went downhill. As tge great Alex Ferguson once remarked, sissy, "hard work always beats great talent". At the end of the day...

He never worked as a main guy. The reason for PSG being tge circus it is, is largely due to Neymar himself. He has always been way too immature, mercurial and petty. Messi and Ronaldo led their teams, yes. They were the best players and the biggest stars, yes. But they were both always...

Calm down with your praise, sissy. One flukey cannonball kick between players that any kindergarden kid can score on the tenth try. Why didnt he blast those against Bayern or Newcastle?

Raw natural talent vs clinical machine. Kind of like Messi vs Ronaldo or Federer vs Djokovic.

Temptation.... The eye factor doesnt lie. Suarez was considerably better, a more complete player than Lewy. Passing, dribbling, playmaking, physicality, freekicks, finishing. Luisito could do it all. His peak from 2010-2016 was unbelievable, he was definitely the third best player in the world...

Apparantly not welcomed back by Atletico fans and club anymore. His latest celebration along with his frequent "dream" talk about Barca dont go well with the club and its supporters. Was never made for Cholo anyway.

Exactly! My point is that a Cavani or a Gomez type isnt as flashy/technically sound as prime Lewy was, but they werent divas. They didnt sulk. Give me a bread and butter type 9 any day over an overpriviliged diva like Lewy.

During his eight years with Bayern, only won one CL while bottling it several times, most notably in 2018. Had Bayern signed Edinson Cavani or Gonzalo Higuain instead of Lewy, they'd won at least two more.

He looks constipated. Maybe he should drink some orange juice.

Expect Porto to win today. They'll relish playing us, knowing that with Lewy on field, they have like a prolonged powerplay in hockey terms. 11 vs 10.

Fair enough.

Suarez in his prime was a better player than Cristiano Ronaldo.

just... Unbelievable. In his prime, only Messi was better. Never ever compare this Polish poacher to El Pistolero.

To be fair.... He was never that good to begin with as we are seeing now with mr Harold taking over at Bayern. A very good, old-fashioned number 9 but... meh. Had he played his prime years in La Liga or in the Premier League, his numbers would have been drastically different. A bit of a diva, a...

Meanwhile Kane is on his way of breaking his goal-record on his debut season.

Why was he subbed off so early?

Of course, people generally speaking look much younger nowadays than they did, say 30+ years ago. Just watched You only live twice (1967) yesterday. Connery was 36 at the time and looked about 50 by todays standards.

He is the youngest-looking soon-to-be 39-year-old.

Exactly. With Lewy, it's all about clinical finishing from close range. There is no plan B. He never beats a player or, as you mentioned, pulls some magic out of his rear like Luisito always does or like Mandzu did in that CL final. Also, muscles wont do good in football. Its all about cardio...

I hope people will now realize how good Luisito was. Even in his later years, he always performed against Real. Lewy at Bayern? Like King Leo said, Kane is now doing trendemous business with them. So did Gomez, Toni, Mandzukic and many others so-called lesser strikers than Lewy. Any decent 9...
