One mediocre performance from Arda, in a game where everyone was mediocre, and one good performance from Rafinha, in a game where everyone played well, and suddenly Rafinha is better suited to play... Ok.

So if it costs a goal it is better somehow? Once in a while it is better to kick it away, not saying he should do it often.

But he really should.

One of his passes were centimetres away from costing a goal.. He should kick the ball away more often.

Did he get a yellow for the challenge or something else?

That pass to Neymar for the penalty.. So sick.

Great game, one of his best performances since winter.

Neymar Messi Alba

It doesn't matter who you play him with, he keeps the ball to himself anyway.. He could be excused if he actually played well, and he didn't do any better with the substitutes.

Are you trying to claim Neymar played better than Arda? Lol.. Neymar played selfishly like usual, but this time it either ended up with nothing or misplayed passes. International break showing its marks, little to no synergy with the team. Energetic though I'll give him that.

Lovely defense.. Gotta feel for the guy.

Neymar should really take a break, but if not, it would be interesting to see if Arda actually can't play in the LCM position or if it was just a matter of adaption and playing time.

GOAT

Great composure for such a young guy not letting the penalty get to him.

Great goals, but a bit sloppy with the ball between min 50 and 80. He should also press more on the sides when defending. Against better opponents, those crosses/passes can be lethal. Overall good game though.

Pepe? Sure, you could argue, but who will vote for Pepe lol. Nani? No way. In terms of skill they were probably equal, but in my book being the captain and doing a good job at that accounts for a lot as well.

So you're saying.. Eder should win Ballon?? Can get behind that.

He won't leave - especially to China. Would lose all his popularity and marketing potential. He is playing at the level of Roberto and Rafinha, but needs to outperform those two by some margin, if he wants to stay.

Serious? They were headless chickens without him and wouldve lost 3-0 easily without some decent luck and Patricio going god mode.

Well you see plenty of high expectations elsewhere at least. But you just can't help yourself with these results, that meme creates the best banter.
