[Scandale du Jour]

Lots of talk here about Brazil's fourth best player

Just curious, who is your top 3?

Just curious, who is your top 3?

I wasn't the one asked, but I'd say an argument could be made for Raphinha, Gabriel and Allison. If you only consider outfield players, then maybe Marquinhos, but he's about equal with Vini, who plays more important position if they want to win in SA WC qualifiers.

Weirdly enough, Vini already is 3rd most capped player in the current Brazil squad, if you ignore the corpse of Alex Sandro. On the whole, it's an unexperienced group of players.

Raphina, Neymar and Douglas

2024-25 Raphinha, yes.

Gabriel, most likely.

Raphina, Neymar and Douglas

Neymar in 2025? Nah.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Neymar in 2025? Nah.

Clearly I was mentioning Barca legends lol.

Gabriel I guess but I’d say Vini is top 3. Shows how far Brazil fell in terms of attackers

 

[les Habs]

Things do not work in a vaccuum. No Mbappe probably means they try to get a 9 or play Endrick more.

Vini probably performs better also.

I agree on both counts. It was as much about him somewhat carrying the team as it was about them being underwhelming.

I agree. They have not been convincing at all this season. Winning because of flashes of individual brillance.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Jokes aside I really don’t see any difference between this Madrid and say 2018 Madrid it’s been like this for years.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Joan Garcia made a triple save and 2 penalties. Jeez

Best Spanish goalie. Easily. I can't believe I'm saying this

 

[luiginb]

I actually have Raphinha, Rodrygo and Allison ahead of him right now, with Cunha a close fifth (and if you don't agree you haven't been playing attention to him this year)

Rodrygo is very underrated and I agree that he is a more useful.player than Vini, this year. He at least can link up with Mbappé.

Just a few months ago he was saying Vini was comparable to Mbappe lol

Talent wise? Totally.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Talent wise? Totally.

Jesus

It’s not even close.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Jesus

It’s not even close.

Vini is supremely talented. He is just a dumb ass.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Vini is supremely talented. He is just a dumb ass.

He has talent he’s not not close to mpabbe talent level and football IQ has a lot to do with it.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Frenkie discomfort.

Casado is in. Big game from him needed.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Martinez took a big risk luckily Llorente didn’t dive. If he does that’s probably a pen

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Alvarez is ridiculous.

 

[Savi]

Shithousery on point for Atleti tonight

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

That should’ve been a corner but it’s not called and atleti go on the counter … punishing counter

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Barca need to find 2 gears they didn’t do shit.

Master class by Atelti so far

 

[Bounces R Way]

Finally something for FCB
great first touch from Lewandowski

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Barca deserve nothing from this match but both goals should’ve been called back.

We should post a comnunicado on twitter and Barca tv
