watch football with your eyes and stop basing everything on useless stats. you have this donkey of a winger Gakpo that can’t even dribble past a kid 1v1 to save his life, has no pace, can’t even give creative passes or terrorize a defense and you call that a winger?
Look at these stats and tell me with a straight face Barcola is a massive upgrade on Gakpo ✅👇
Barcola record in Ligue 1
- 128 games 34 goals.
Gakpo record in the Premier League
- 127 games 32 goals.
Barcola at World Cup
- 8 games 3 goals
Gakpo at World Cup
- 4 games 3 goals.
Barcola in Europe
- 43 games 6 goals
Gakpo in Europe
- 47 games 15 goals
Now can you imagine Gakpo stats if he was playing in Ligue 1 with PSG 🤭
You are being gaslit by some big LFC accounts on here here exactly how good Barcola is.
Remember he is basically leaving PSG because he isn't starting.
So 128 million plus is absolutely ludicrous for Barcola when we have big issues elsewhere 👍
They measured him by trophies. We measured him by the joy he gave us.
D tears, D pain, D injuries yet he always came back with a smile and a ball glued to his feet.
Football will produce more champions, but it may never produce another Neymar.
Obrigado, Ney. 🇧🇷❤️👑

Anyone trying to say Neymar isn’t an all time great has 0 ball knowledge I’ll die on this hill
All-time leading scorer for Brazil, but more importantly, did you ever watch him play
Hoje o mundo se despede de Neymar Jr. o príncipe que nunca foi coroado Rei.
Infelizmente você nunca teve uma seleção que estivesse no seu nível.
Única coisa boa nisso é que finalmente você vai parar de ser o escudo dos jogadores FRACOS que sempre se esconderam atrás de você.

بيليه ؟ الظاهره ؟ رونالدينهو ؟ كاكا ؟ ريفالدو ؟
حطم ارقامهم جميعًا بل تعداهم بفوارق شاسعة
ذنبه الوحيد انه أتى في جيل لايفقه شيء في كرة القدم
أعتزالك دوليًا لن يمحي أنك افضل لاعب برازيلي بالتاريخ
Football can be really cruel honestly, for all Neymar’s talent, football didn’t reward him enough so he get placed in the conversation he properly belongs too, no World Cup, no Ballon d’Or, barely any defining iconic moments on the biggest stages, and because football remembers trophies and headlines more than it remembers pure ability, his name will slowly drift away from the conversations it deserved to stay in.
Anyone who actually watched Neymar in his prime knows we’re talking about one of the most naturally gifted footballers this sport has ever produced. He wasn’t just a dribbler or a showman like people try to reduce him to. He could score, create, control games, beat three or four players with ease, play the final pass, win matches by himself and entertain at the same time. There were very few players in history who combined all those qualities at such a high level.
There was a point where it genuinely felt inevitable that he would win a Ballon d’Or one day. He looked like the obvious successor after Messi and Ronaldo. But football doesn’t always reward the best talent. Sometimes it rewards timing, luck, fitness and being on the right side of defining moments.
Injuries came at the worst possible times. Brazil fell short whenever the expectations were highest. The move to PSG, whether fair or unfair, changed how many people viewed his career.
If you remove the trophies and just judge players by what they could actually do with a football, Neymar comfortably belongs in conversations with some of the greatest attackers the game has ever seen. His peak was crazy. Players, coaches and defenders who faced him know exactly how special he was.
Unfortunately, history doesn’t always remember peaks. It remembers medals, Ballons d’Or and World Cups. That’s why years from now there will be people who never watched prime Neymar and think he was just another great player when in reality he was one of the most extraordinary footballers of his generation.
Football can be really cruel sometimes. It doesn’t always reward the players who deserve it the most.
Until we get a coach who can say, “Fck the politicians. Fck the GFA. I will make my own selections,” we’ll never go far in any international tournament. Apparently, only Coach Milo was able to do that in 2010.
Return of Captain Chaos🙌
For Iraola Organised Chaos✅
Nunez returning to Liverpool is great news.
Some facts about Nunez first spell at Liverpool👇
° Averaged 23 goal contributions a season.
° Had 62 goal contributions with just 76 starts.
° Statistically him and Salah were the best striking partnership in the PL in 23/24
°He had 31 goal contributions in 23/24
°He is one of the hardest working attackers around and loves Liverpool.
This has made my day 🤩🤝👇
If Spurs give us €70 million for Gakpo they will instantly become my second favourite club, I'll even drive him there myself😂
70 million gets you a Lee Kang-in and Lamine Camara✅
Please please please be true 🙏
I think the argument that Andoni Iraola has never won a trophy or coached a top club is a very lazy one from some Liverpool fans.
There are many coaches who had never won anything before being appointed by a bigger club, yet they transformed those teams and went on to achieve great success.
Examples include Pep Guardiola at Barcelona, Luis Enrique at Barcelona, Jürgen Klopp at Borussia Dortmund, and Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid. There are many more examples as well.
Enzo Maresca is another example. He quickly implemented his ideas and won silverware. Big clubs have the resources to help a coach succeed, provided the coach is capable and hardworking.
Modern fans often want managers with big names, but judging a coach solely on trophies or previous clubs is a lazy argument.
What matters most is the coach's ideas, ability to improve players, and whether they can build a successful team.
Liverpool’s data nerds wanted Ruben Amorim over Xabi Alonso and we are expected to treat them like football geniuses 😂
Whoever leaked that to The Athletic didn’t exactly help the narrative they are geniuses🫢
Now they’re using the same data to back Slot 😢
The data nerds have far too much power at Liverpool.
And the truth is, sacking Slot alone won’t fix anything — Edwards and Hughes need to go too. 👍
Luis Diaz wanted a wage increase from £85k a week, a player who actually runs, presses and drives at defenders.
But we gave Gakpo £200k a week instead….
Salah, Robertson and now Alisson leaving in the summer will destroy the chemistry in this team and it screams one thing.
No one wants to play under Slot.
