Finally Kroos off.

Think Cancelo is better than this version of Kyle. Never seen him this slow. As expected, without his speed Kyle Walker is a horrible footballer.

I really thought Kyle Walker would have a field day against Vini. These are the matchups Vini usually lose, against physical and quick fullbacks. But Kyle looks lost out there. Vini is beating him to every sprint.

Looked like a complete dive watching it on replay.

They're feeling the occasion. Never seen them misplace so many easy balls.

Modric should've done better there. Terrible first touch.

Classic Vini

Actually (whether you believe it or not) kind of agree with this. I mean he's clearly a very good player, but I don't think he'll ever be a top 10 footballer in the world. He lacks composure and he's like you say very erratic. Despite his dribbling being good, he's not excellent in tight spaces. What he does have going for him though is that he consistently gets into good positions and has 18 goals this season, which should've probably been around 40 goals if he had any composure. I still believe Rodrygo would do a better job on the left side

not even the worst in his own side

I counter that by saying that he should be an inspiration to modern footballers, that no matter how much money you earn you should always help in communities in need and do the right things off it. He’s the Mané of Brazil in the sense that his social work is absolutely amazing. Think there’s an article in the Athletic named something ”The Richarlison You Need to Know” or something similar. So while you might not like his antics on the pitch and might think he’s a bad influence, he’s in fact the opposite. Loved by teammates and fans and even by the Argentinian media because he’s a very humble person off it.

He’s definitely giving 120% in those occassions. I’d be worried if he was only diving 50%.

Gabriel Jesus for one. Or let’s put it this way, I thought he was going to be great at one point. Hopefully a change of team could revive his career. Neymar is another one I loved, but he’s just petulant now with no football to back it up at the moment. Also, Raphinha and Antony are superior to all the ones mentioned in this post. But it also depends for what team we are talking about. For the national team I’m a bit stricter in who I tend to like. I’m not Richarlison greatest fan, but he’s far better than what we have at this club going forward.

Did I say that?

Richarlison is a better player, while Jesus is more talented. I’d take a punt on any of them because of the options we have. And the more brazilians the merrier.

He’s not the next big star, but the guy is still talented and above all works his socks off constantly. Was excellent this weekend against Chelsea. Bit of a nutcase on the pitch for sure, but it’s only because he gives 120% every time. Far better than anything we got and definitely good enough for a team hoping to get into Europe.

Richarlison would be a no brainer. He’s a shithouse when he’s your opponent but he’s one of the most liked and most humble players out there according to teammates. I promise he’d become a fan favourite quicklt. Not the most talented, would be our best offensive player straight away.

its a clear save nothing else. Play on. love cl nights. Imagine if Villarreal wins this.

People saying that`s a pen really hate Liverpool.

Thiago Silva is a year older than Cristiano and has absolutely dominated him all night. What a player he is still.

I mean, looking that way Fred is essential for the team. Only gotten 5 points in 6 matches where he's not played in 2022 and gotten 18points in 10 matches when he has played

Don't get the point of the Conference League personally. Expand the Europa League to pure knockout and more teams. Would be far more interesting. Nations League is good for the European sides, but for Brazil it sucks as there is no teams to test themselves against.

Should've given us more minutes to watch tbf.

Somebody fire this ref. Blasphemy to end the game. Should've added 10 more minutes at the very least.

In the league they're entertaining as well. A week or so ago they were down 2-0 and outplayed by Sevilla and turned it around in 25 minutes or so to 3-2.
