  1. Honestly. VAR is ridiculous at this point.
  2. 4th hattrick this season and scored 9 in a game in the u-20 World Cup this summer. Ridiculous really
  3. Neymar with a class finish to win it for PSG in the 92nd. Been booed whole game by the PSG fans.
  4. Second one was soft? What? And he actually got away with one earlier.
  5. And they question why they need Neymar.
  6. Ive lost all respect for Neymar the past two years for the way he has handled everyrhing. But lets not act like he’s not a top 5 player in the world when he plays. Mbappe has tremendous potential, but as of what theyve shown at PSG, Neymar is still far ahead of him in every aspect of the game. I hope he can go back to Barcelona so he finds love for the sport again,because talent wise, only Messi and Ronaldo are ahead of hin.
  7. Or Suarez. Neither Neymar or Messi will be on the bench thats for sure.
  8. Dani Alves scored in his Sao Paulo debut. Playing as a #10.
  9. Dunno like, a fair few recent contenders. It’s Froggy against a ”paid scout”. It is the worst.
  10. Might’ve been the worst page in forum history that.
  11. No way they leave Arthur out like. There's so many games I think Griezemann, Neymar and Suarez will be rotating for most of it. Probably going to be much less playing time for Suarez compared to the other three.

    Joelinton

    Not even a Brazilian #9 will get me back in.
  13. officially done with the club. Quite happy with it. 20+ years of support from afar, been an emotional roller coaster but it seems to finally be over.

    1-1 Thought VAR was going to rob them there Was clear cut. Makes you wonder if whoever called it just wanted to heap pressure on the taker so the hosts could benefit. Actually, new rules apparently states that if the defenders arm was on the grass than it would not have been a penalty hence why it was reviewed.

    Never understood politicians joining in on those celebrations. Also Dani Alves man...what a tournament. What a captain he has been. So natural to have a fullback as captain of a winning side for Brazil.

    Been extremely pathetic. I love Messi but he seems to forget they almost got eliminated in the group stages in a group with Paraguay and Qatar. He has given found an excuse after every game, I think he’s starting to feel pressure regarding his legacy with the national team. I hope for his sake they win it at home next year, but the way he has carried himself this Copa America has really left a bad taste.

    what the hell does the president walking around the stadium have anything to do with it? Also, both penaltiws are up for debate although I do believe that the Otamendi one was a penalty. But as Tim Vickery put nowadays everything in the box is a penalty in this VAR era.. Anyone that watched the game will see that the ref was horrible, not biased. Paredes and Acuna could easily have been sent off in the first half. Agueros crossbar header came from a freekick that was given wrongly as Casemiro got the ball and in the 2nd half Messi got two great freekicks that were wrongly called (one of them for handball on a Brazilain player, despite Lautaro putingt his hands on the ball first). Also anyone that knows South American football is very aware of the fact that Brazil has extremely little influence in the CONMEBOL. Oh and both were reviewed by the VAR refs. The Aguero/Alves incident was much more a penalty than the Otamendi one. Also, there have been reports that the VAR officials suggested the referee take a look at both of them which he refused to do. Ball is cleared before the foul even occurs. Theres angles showing both looking at the ball. Aguero even steps on alves foot. That’s never a penalty. No one would even care about that play if it wasn’t inside the box. I found it wxtremely weird he didnt take a look at the Otamendi one however. Personally that was a penalty. But the conspiracies are ridiculous.

    If that is true than theyve been really poor lately. Nothing special from them last night. Lots of complains about the ref but he was lettibg them tackle for fun last night. VAR really messed up that Otamendi oenalty however, but thought Brazil looked as they’ve done under Tite, organized and efficient (not counting that game against Belgiun). They have been really poor lately Last night was a 50:50 game up until I stopped watching after the second goal IMO I mean yeah it was a pretty even match, but while Messi complained about two potential penalties (only thought the Arthur on Otamendi was one) it was ridiculous how they could fly into tackles with studs up without getting cards. Paredes could've easily been booked three times and Acuna as well. Thought Brazil looked pretty comfortable. They hit the crossbar on a header from a free-kick and then Messi hit the post from a ball that bounced his way. Messi was good last night, shame the rest of his team is poor.

    Also, Messi has really become a crybaby lately.
