hahahahaBut would Messi be able to do it in a more competitive league like PL? Ronaldo have done it.

He can't score against good teams (i.e. Chelsea) though.He's scored 17 goals in 16 games against English clubs, including a hat trick against City and four in a game against Arsenal. I'm pretty sure he'd be OK.

Why not include all the matches. He didn't score in either the 1-0 or the 2-2 match up, against Chelsea. #cantdoitagainslionheartcahill

avaya talk to us about PEDs
Anything new that the athletes are using or just same old
It's quite amazing that you sometimes can't tell if posts like this are serious or not haha
He's the heir apparent to ronaldo/Messi both in terms of football and challenging for the balon dor and in terms of marketing power.
If a sub like morata is worth £70m, Bale/Pogba worth £90m and Mbappe worth £100m then Neymar is easily worth twice that.
Isn't Griezmann clause something on the realm of 200 million too?
It's £90m or so, or will be next summer. That's how much Utd were gonna pay for him.
Again it could seem a bargain by next summer considering he came 3rd in balon dor so is for now the 3rd best player in the world!
Probably not.
What we've witnessed with Ronaldo and Messi is something inhuman. In a "bad" season, they score like 35 league goals. People say "yeah, they missed some games and had some bad games this season" Before their era, a player with those averages would've been considered the best striker on the planet.
People will realize it once they've been retired. We won't see averages of 80 goals in a calendar year anytime soon.
And not only that, but also realize that these guys are doing it for 10 years straight. Other legends, like Ronaldinho, they could hold on for perhaps 3 or 4 seasons before fading away. What these 2 guys are doing is absolutely ridiculous. Thats why I always laugh when fans say that Hazard is as good as Messi, who had been through an absolutely shit season already. Something Messi and Ronaldo never experienced thus far. These guys are the best players in the history of football.
The Guardian report says they'd have to accept it from a Spanish club or Neymar himself but are allowed to reject it from PSG in the interests of protecting the league and the Spanish club.La Liga has rejected an attempt by lawyers for Barcelona forward Neymar to pay his buyout clause of 222m euros (£198m).

This should be interesting.

Yeah playing for Barcelona. That's the key thing here he's one of the best players to play the game no doubt but for me I couldn't put him above numerous other players in the GOAT list due to the fact he's only played for Barcelona, which is basically moulded around him. Fact he's never hit the same heights playing for his country just amplifies thats.
Reading these numbers I'm glad I never contributed a single cent to that sport and I'm not gonna change that anytime soon. The day I can't watch Champions League, Euro or World Cup matches on our state TV channels for "free" is the day I'll stop caring for football.

This is incredible ironic coming from Barcelona. Using a broken and corrupt system is only okay if it benefits them. That's the message they are sending here. Just Embarrasing.
I'm very surprised by plenty of opinions in this thread. Saying French L1 is a pointless league and saying French clubs like PSG are buying their performance with expensive signings.
But, prior to Arret Bosman, French League was highly competitive and since then, french players are inundating european big clubs. How do you think all those guys have been signed by the big guns?
This has nothing to do with Barcelona, this is all La Liga.
You're contributing by just watching tho.
You know he is one of the GOATS if that the reason people have to bring up to knock him down.
Why would you expect him to play as good with worse players than in Barca ? Soccer is a teamsport you cant win any cup alone, there is just so much one player can do.

It's a valid reason though when talking about GOAT. You said theres only so much one player can do but Maradona....World cup 1986![]()
When we're talking about GOAT I'm look at Ronaldo: killed it at Cruzeiro, PSV (he was a kid then) killed it at barca, inter, real. Different teams, styles, countries he's adapted to and been amazing. So when I'm thinking about GOAT that matters to me it's why I would put Ronaldo over Messi. Same for Zidane tbf i just love Zidane made everything look so easy.
I know for most people the fact he's remain at one club doesn't matter anyway going way off topic now.
Knowing Konami, they'll probably just leave it like that and hope no one notices.man... how are Konami going to change this?
lol
They had the best career of course but the game right now is different. Players like Cavani , Suarez are able to score more than 40 or even 50 goals in a single season. Do you think that these guys are better than Sheva or Van Basten ?You can't compare different era of fotball by looking at the stats without analizing the context.Probably not.

You could go watch a local team.
Same thing with the Dutch league, it's being plundered for talent every year, seriously eroding the Eredivisie. It's no coincidence that the last time a Dutch team won the Champion's League is the year of the Bosman arrest. All real talent is gone before they are 24 and often much earlier than that. There are no shady oil billionaires bankrolling clubs here so it's impossible to compete.
Spain and England in particular have been buying their successes for decades now. It's hilarious that Barcelona, being one of the worst offenders, is complaining now.

Barca have been corrupt for ever. Now they are crying foul
