Neymar is one of the best that ever played. Said it plenty times. This is his World Cup.
Day 18: Croatia vs Brazil | Netherlands vs Argentina (QF 1&2)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
That is why you dont take him off. Regardless of fitness he can open up any defence.
Nonsense. You play the game that is most convenient for you and not everyone can play like whatever your ideal team is.
Croatia had the right gameplan for this and executed it well. Unlucky, that's all.
It's how they made the last final
Antony has to start the semis if they win
There are few footballers as complete as Neymar right now. What a player
Yeah I think this too. Unfortunately then you'll be in for him and in 4 years him and Garnacho will be your starting wingers!!!
Edit - Lisandro your CB too.
Well feck. They are throwing on Fred.
Must be a victory then.

Brazil will win that. Their defence and physicality is superb.
One-twos
Such a "simple" concept but only geniuses of the game can pull that out on a decisive moment in a world cup. Absolutely loved that goal, just beautiful. Straight from a dirt pitch in a favela with kids playing barefoot. Just beautiful

Romario would be proud of that goal, around the keeper and roof it.
Some people were crying about world class talent....here you go
Croatia don’t seem to have a natural striker? They’ve gambled by holding Brazil to a draw and playing for penalties, such a shame.
Thank feck for that. That was just pure genuis by Neymar and I think that’s the goal that ties him with Pele? If so, the great man himself would have been pleased with that.
Why are they unlucky?
richard arlison needs to be dropped and demoted to bus driver.
Guess they only dance on the shit teams
Here comes the the Fredmeister
Croatia will get a chance.
Floyd doesn't go to the floor, though.
Or first time in the box
Fred is on to change the whole game.
What a player Neymar is. Shame he's hiding his talent in France.
I don't understand this. No player, except maybe Ronaldinho and Jay Jay Okocha, have been as entertaining as Neymar during the last 25 years. Add to that his end product is better than theirs and he delivers on all stages. He is tackled far too hard and often. Is he really that hard to like or be neutral about?
Fred coming ind. Brazil is doomed.
Fred on to put this one in the bank.
Not for me,they need him
World class in action.
Wow!
Wow!
For good or bad?
They can play the game whatever the feck way they want. I also can call them boring cnuts for it.
I don't even think he needs that long. Just games to adjust to this league. By March, especially with his pressing and engine, he should be exceptional.
They can have all the negative plans they want, and majority of neutrals will hate them for it, simple as that. Good on Brazil.
Croatia have to attack now. Its what we needed in the first 90 minutes of the game.
I know Croatia have a game plan and all, but I hope they dont equalise.

Seconded.
They are losing?
They don't broadcast Ligue 1 games?
He's a prick. Being a quality player doesn't mean he's not
croatia represent some of the worse of tournament/WC football.
That old mentality of not letting an opponent score means you still have a chance to win.
He's been giving people semi's all this half. It's only fitting he gets a semi of his own.
