toon25 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Brazil have been as good as any team I’ve seen this tournament. Always carry a threat going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I fucking despise that bastard, its like someone distilled all the worst things you could think of about modern footballers and put it into him This seems like an overreaction but having watched this game I think I agree Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Mexico have been poor. There has been examples throughout this game where playing the obvious pass would have opened up Brazil, and they never played the pass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Brazil have been quietly getting the job done, unlike the other big nations. Generally playing well too, although they'll not be remembered as a Holland '74 or Brazil '70. It's got to be either them or France. Oh, erm..... IT'S COMING HOME.

Whoever wins this World Cup will be the poorest team since I have been following football, and possibly before that. I have seen nothing from Brazil to be fearful of, not of any other team.

Jayson Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Really havent been that impressed by Neymar so far. His contributions have been tapping the ball in twice & that break away there against an open defence. Willian looked more effective in this game & was the one that actually opened it up.

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Literally every single club has a player who dives. Every single one. I assume Martin O Neil says the same about Shane Long? Aye, but the level of moral outrage increases with the level of cuntery. Neymar's a Pepe level shithouse when it comes to diving and play acting, someone like Shane Long is probably nearer to someone like Shearer or Keane when people like Neymar are skewing the scale.

Idk Long dives constantly, its not as theatric but he's a serially cheater. The difference imo is that nobody expects much from Shane Long. He’s a bog standard footballer. Neymar is presumably one of the three best players in the world, why does he need to flop around like an absolute bellend if he’s such an awesome player?

Deuce Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Seems like Neymar genuinely believes nobody should ever touch him. As if contact is an affront to the purity of football, which is ludicrous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a shit, as they all are, but I think it's the theatrics, pretending to be dying, and trying to get opposition players sent off that wind people up more than anything. You'd think he'd think that him breaking his back might have been karma, but he's gotten way worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, he's a proper WUM. He made Behrami feel like a people's champion against Switzerland after Neymar had tried to make it all about him imo.

I'm surprised how often he invites them tbh, one day he'll get seriously injured because of it and most people will just reference crying Wolf.

ponsaelius Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Neymar's rolling around before was ridiculous but it's going to happen all the time now with VAR. For something sly and hidden like what Layun did, players now have a justified reason to put on a display and try and get the video referees to look at it.

Yea, like everything else, VAR is a double edge sword on theatrics. Rewards it in those cases where an ankle stomp might otherwise be uncaught, while making sure blatant dives where people throw themselves about without being touched aren't rewarded.
