Henrique 9,133 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Brazilians in general are very arrogant when the subject is football. They dare to say the Club World Cup final was the game of the year, best european team against best brazilian one.Some were even more crazy to claim it was a clash between Neymar and Messi: whos better ?"Neymar is way better than Messi, because he shoots with both feet, score lot of goals, Messy rely so much on his team". Pelé said.Some journalists claimed Neymar could win the game alone. Talking with some friends they said me: " I think Santos will win, there is not such a gap between both clubs".Muricy, Santo's coach said before the match "a manager can be considered perfect only if win something in Brazil".Well, Barcelona crushed Santos, winning by 4-0, with two awesome goals by Messi. Neymar tried some some individual but Barcelona's players easily recovered the ball, he also missed two chances when was in front of the goal. It was a easy match by Barcelona. 75% ball possession. It could have been 7-0, 8-0.People realized how poor our league is compared with top european ones, like Premier League and La Liga. They are asking whats wrong with brazilian football. Why we stopped playing beautiful football years ago.Here are the highlights:http://sportv.globo....clubes/1735769/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Was suprised when i saw the score, i thought Santos had a chance of causing a upset.Did Ganso play? do you reckon Neymar could move in January or the summer now he has played Barca?

Santos only have Neymar and Borges. The GK is also good. The rest of the team is avarage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Did you root for Santos even though you support Palmeiras?No. I wanted Barcelona to trash Santos, so people here will stop saying brazilian league is the best in the world, and that only brazilians play good football.I started watching PL almost 10 years ago because brazilian football got awful, slow and boring. Palmeiras had a team in 90s that was better than any team in PL history. Velloso; Roberto Carlos, Antonio Carlos, Kleber, Claudio; Rivaldo, Cesar Sampaio, Flavio Conceição, Zinho; Edmundo e Evair.What a team. Today brazilians team are getting back old players like Luiz Fabiano, Ronaldinho and Adriano, and they return as great players, while the big clubs just doesnt have a academy.

Hd123 5 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 It's not that he's a bad player although he has many flaws, but to compare him to messi is silly. There are only a select few at the moment who can be compared (RVP, Robben, Ronaldo, Ribery, Silva, Iniesta, Aguero) in terms of ability. Neymar is also steps below the level of Mata, Sturridge, Rooney, Nani, Hazard, Di Maria etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francozola 2,040 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Henrique, I don't know much about Neymar's personality because I've just seen youtube videos, but based on articles he comes across as very arrogant. Do you think he would want to move to Chelsea if we bid on him? Considering we are a poor team right now. Or do you think he simply wants to play for either Real or Barca?

Well, Times is a good source.Anyway, I dont want him at Chelsea anymore. I'm thinking about selling him in FIFA 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolhead23 1,147 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 After this game and all that has been written and said in the media about how great Neymar is. Yes the boy has talent no denying that but still he is no where near some of the decent players in Europe atleast ... Does anyone think there would be lot of takers for Neymer at 45M now? Barca has a set team so does Madrid (i mean they dont have to think much for the next few seasons), in the EPL there is only Chelsea who was behind him, dont think United would go for him, City mite, Arsenal dont have the cents in the pockets. The only other place left is Italy maybe AC Milan who wouldnt shed out 45m for him.Just wondering how would the club president now want to bargain on 45m for his prized asset.

Badboy 1,526 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I have been saying this for a few years now, Brazil have not had a good team since 2002. The Kaka generation has been awful and boring. Brazil does not care about football that much anymore, they care more about ethanol production.
