2015 Copa América [P+R]

[Mus]

no point in explaining the math of the ban -- it was clearly designed to ensure he is out of the tournament ... a Brazil v Argentina possibility isn't the same without Neymar v Messi ...

maybe the narrative for this Copa will be of stars learning the hard way what 'role model' means? Vidal-DUI ... Neymar-Respect ... Suárez-Cannibalism?

The funny thing is legally, Vidal was more wrong, yet he played in their 5-0 a few days later

Dunga is such an idiot, can't believe he coaches Brazil.

Miranda: "Neymar is feeling a lot of sadness deep inside him."

Dunga replied at this something like if Neymar wants to stay with the group he should be a man not a sad kid.

That is completely true. Neymar's petulance has cost his team.

 

[Arnau]

Xaviesta still has a point, Dunga is an idiot.

 

[Xaviesta]

Dunga makes Neymar the captain and then he says that shit about him. Also, Thiago Silva is a great captain and Neymar is not ready for that.

 

[Mus]

It's Brazil, the sponsors probably chose captain

 

[Arnau]

There are many types of leadership, Neymar is Brazil leader on the pitch, just like Messi with Argentina. Its ok to give them the armband

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Dunga makes Neymar the captain and then he says that shit about him. Also, Thiago Silva is a great captain and Neymar is not ready for that.

It's even more unacceptable for a captain to let his team down like that. Dunga is totally in the right.

So when Zidane got sent off in the 2006 Final, wearing the armband no less, his manager was supposed to say "well that's just Zizou, I gave him the armband, so I can't criticize his mistakes."

 

[Dytza]

No but I don't remember Domenech criticizing him in public either. Of course Neymar's reaction was shit but you don't go out as his coach saying that. What happens in the locker is another story.

 

[Xaviesta]

It's ok to criticise him for his mistakes, but you don say at a press conference that if he wants to stay with the group he should't be sad like a kid. Of course Neymar is sad, and he's right about getting too much shit on the pitch and the refs don't do shit many times. Neymar, Messi, Ronaldo are not great captains but Messi knows how to deal with the shit he gets on the pitch and that's why he is by far the best. If you are the best player in your team, that doesn't make you a captain.

 

[Xaviesta]

Imagine if that was Neymar

Tata Martino arranged barbecue for Argentina's squad today. yes, it's true.

 

[Arnau]

Hahahaha

 

[Filipower]

Uruguay had it too. It's South America, guys, relax.

 

[Arnau]

Tata Martino ended his season at Barça making a bbq before every key game.

 

[Arnau]

Great game so far by Robinho, never justified the hype but he was (is) a very good player. Better than Cuadrado 2015.

 

[Xifio]

Better than Cuadrado 2015.

I hope Mou thinks so too and sends him to Inter ...

 

[MaSsiVe]

Brazil is right now playing simultaneously with Thiago Silva, Miranda, David Luiz and Marquinhos against Venezuela. Dunga

 

[Filipower]

Elias and Fernandinho, too.

 

[MaSsiVe]

And still managed to conceed a goal! Hilarious.

 

[Filipower]

Robinho, Elias and Tardelli on the field at the same time for the Brazilian National Football Team. Never forget 22.06.15. (or 21, I guess.)
