Football is physical work. Body no be firewood.

If Mobil retire you with enough money not to work again, will you go and join Olu Olu and Sons to be pushing borehole like the guys below?
Well, Southampton no be Olu Olu & Sons. Willy will still earn taaazands of pounds per week.

More like Matic while Fabregas was bench player


Coming off the bench to assist in the winning goal against Watford, played a key part in the win against high flying man city side at the etihad that ensured we went top of the league, maybe the bench player was more influential than a regular player just maybe.

Bench player they bring on either when game is won or when everybody is tired and sit him as AM in a 3-5-2. When they gave him starting shirt, he sent Chelsea to Europa

The Wimbledon he was training at since Chelsea released him in May till 2 weeks ago is Olu Olu and Sons. He tried. To get released at 40 with no club forthcoming, and refuse to retire, going to non-league club to be diving around in the mud, cold and rain. Man is dedicated.

Your point about Neymar is valid. I would have used Harry Kane (not Salah) to replace him.

Harry Kane even outperformed Salah between January and May 2021 in goals and assists. Lowkey, Salah's dip in form affected Liverpool's Epl's defence last season but some people don't want that conversation.

Salah fired us through when he was needed the most as you said. April to May, Mo was on fire...
Liverpool played through an injury crisis which Tottenham didn't have...

What happened to him between January and April?

9 goals in last 21 matches of the season, was unimpressive. Kane even did better than him.

There is no justification whatsoever for Salah not making that FifPro XI list. Whether he deserves to make the actual first XI is a much closer debate. Lukaku also deserves his place on the list despite his recent dip in form. What i find surprising is no one talking about Neymar making that list. That guy has declined in the last year and a half at the very least. I'm not even going to talk about the other categories. Things like this make it hard to disagree with those who write off these awards as glorified popularity contests.

Good to have you back.

Yeah at least he once helped him to the league title and maybe if Costa was not replaced with Morata by silly Conte you would have had a point though .

How many times should we clear you guys of this misconception?

airmark:
Conte: “I asked for two players and we were very, very close after we won the league,” Conte said. “One player was Romelu Lukaku, the second player was Virgil van Dijk, and these two players were very, very close.

"We were in contact every day and I always said that with these two players we would improve my team by 30 per cent.

"It was a pity that it didn’t happen and Romelu is showing with Inter that my idea was right and also Van Dijk has shown with Liverpool that my idea was right for the club.

Unimpressive to you but impressive to every other person considering those goals carried us above Chelsea to finish 3rd and qualify for UCL all the way from 7th or thereabout...

As expected, the fanboy comes to the defense of his idol. It's clear to anyone with working eyes that your MCM has regressed. He is not even among the best 8 players in the world now, never mind top 5. He has now even been relegated to the third best player in PSG, a team he was supposed to be the top dog on. Neymar only made that FifPro list by reputation and not by actual performances on the pitch. Even in the Ligue One, he has been poor and his stats actually reflect this. PSG have Mbappe to thank for keeping them flying in the league in the midst of passengers like Neymar and Messi.

You are typing nonsense. Anybody that watched Psg constantly through out Tuchel reign will tell you Neymar was Psg best player by a mile. It's only under Pochettino Neymar has struggled not because of any nonsense decline you are preaching but because Poch changed his role and has not used him effectively. The fact that Neymar struggles at Psg but gets to Brazil and keeps scoring and assisting ridiculously should tell you how stupid and clueless Pochettino is. Lmao Neymar on form has no mate in world football.

The year in question is August 2020 to August 2021. Count down starts from beginning of last season to his role at the Euros. It is why people who were angry Messi won over Lewandowski were missing it.
You might have a point though. But i'm not too sure about the period under review though. They don't make enough clarification on these things. Another issue is when the form was sent out to the players and the deadline for submission. I would imagine a period of about a month and a half to allow for full participation from the players. Some might voted early as September while some might have waited till the very end, say November before casting their votes. If a larger proportion of the voters voted late, i'm sure Salah would have made that list due to recency bias.

He was on par with Mbappe under Tuchel. Let's not make it seem like he carried the team on his back. Tuchel left in December 2020, we are in December 2021. That was why i said he's regressed. Under this same clueless Poch, Mbappe has been shining but no it's Poch that is behind Neymar's struggles. Poch is the one responsible for Neymar not imposing himself on big matches. We still remember how he choked against Bayern in 2020. Even the much maligned Messi has more goals and assists than Neymar since he joined PSG. But blame it on Poch.

No goal in his last 7 CL knockout stage matches. Only 1 in 10 games since joining PSG. Na to dey statpad against Red Star Belgrade, Basaksehir and the rest e sabi grin

LOL, e wan escape. Mr man, i saw PSG under Tuchel and i know he played Neymar as a number 10 instead of his usual LW position to mitigate PSG's creativity and ball progression issues in midfield especially with the constant injury problems of Verratti. Neymar did his bit and Mbappe also contributed. No one in their right mind would refer to Mbappe as Neymar's sidekick. Neymar's position only assumed a slight bigger importance in the latter stages of the CL due to Mbappe fitness issues. Mbappe no be anybody's boy oh! grin
