Come on, you just assumed the gossip was correct without further checking and now you're just unwilling to admit you were wrong. You now very well that most likely the suspensions at Barca were coincidental, too. And he wouldn't even need to do that, Barca and PSG could just give him a day or two off training and it wouldn't even have been a story as long as he was there for the next match.And that’s acceptable, missing ‘minor’ games? Hilarious if you think so.
As I said, I’m not Woodward & Bernstein-ing this, I’m calling it as a football fan who sees some commonality to his actions over many years.
Neymar missed 20 days due to injury twice since September already. He is simply a fragile guy, who plays a provocative style of football in a league filled with butchersCome on, you just assumed the gossip was correct without further checking and now you're just unwilling to admit you were wrong.

I mean it's completely obvious that he wasn't faking tge injuries at PSG and you can't even admit that.
Same here. I love watching him play.The dislike a lot of United fans have for Neymar is really strange. He’s one of the truly entertaining footballers left in the world.
Whenever he has been on the pitch, PSG has made at least the semi finals (and first ever final). the other times he was injured and they wer KO'd earlyPlayers will be remembered for the impact, not hitting the post. Heard he didn’t score in his last 5 CL playoffs.
That's top class!
When he's at his best, my word what a footballer. A joy to watch
Yes he's a cnut but he's such a talented cnut that you have to appreciate his footballing ability
He would transform any team he’s played for, and ultimately has transformed every team he’s played for. It’s a no brainer to get him. Even more so for a team like ours that desperately lacks players who can beat a man.Would any of you guys take him at Utd for big money?
Well the money that it would take to buy him could be better spent on other players who would suit the team a lot more but it would be ridiculously cool to see Neymar in the no.7 shirt here.Would any of you guys take him at Utd for big money?
I think there are massive questions about his behavior and discipline and what that would bring to the team.Would any of you guys take him at Utd for big money?
He’s a great player, but this thread was about the successor of Ronaldo and Messi, and it was with that perspective I wrote what I wrote. He has not had that impact on his team.Whenever he has been on the pitch, PSG has made at least the semi finals (and first ever final). the other times he was injured and they wer KO'd early
You can have an impact without scoring a goal. He was probably the best player over the two legs and set up all 3 goals in the first. Shame people will actually choose to ignore what their eyes see in favour for some statistics these days.Players will be remembered for the impact, not hitting the post. Heard he didn’t score in his last 5 CL playoffs.
I have to say he’s usually their best player in most CL games they play. He just never managed to hit the freakish levels of Messi or Ronny but there’s no shame in that. He is very entertaining but I don’t think he would be someone i would ever take a huge financial risk on. Would he improve us on the pitch? He Definitely would.Tonight just shows the fine lines in football - he is a pure joy to watch on the ball but, without exaggeration, he could have easily had a hattrick tonight and we'd be saying he's the man.
I think he'd improve any team but he's too expensive to move anywhere and, in fairness, if he likes living in Paris, this is his second CL semi in a row and Ligue 1 isn't as awful as it once was. United are probably one of the few clubs that could afford him!I have to say he’s usually their best player in most CL games they play.

For what he would cost, there are other players I'd want more. Which is not to say I wouldn't welcome him if he signed.Would any of you guys take him at Utd for big money?
I am judging all the posters that say no.Would any of you guys take him at Utd for big money?
Sure, but being the best player in a quarter final doesn’t automatically make you the next Messi/Neymar. However I think we can already forget that he’ll be the “successor”, at his age both Messi and Ronaldo had accomplished so much more.You can have an impact without scoring a goal.

And if he was Ronaldo he’d had his hat trick. That’s the line, thin or not.Tonight just shows the fine lines in football - he is a pure joy to watch on the ball but, without exaggeration, he could have easily had a hattrick tonight and we'd be saying he's the man.
He missed 2, you probably don't watch a lot of football do you?Sure, but being the best player in a quarter final doesn’t automatically make you the next Messi/Neymar.

Also: Goals are not just stats. That’s how you win matches. Hardly ever seen a player miss so many 1v1 with the goal keeper as he did today.
IMO, Navas was the best player in PSG over both matches.
Yep, everyone conveniently forgets this. Was great in both legs even though he’s been out for ages. I think he was the best player on the pitch today, but he did miss a couple of great chances and PSG were fortunate that Bayern didn’t punish them for that profligacyWhenever he has been on the pitch, PSG has made at least the semi finals (and first ever final). the other times he was injured and they wer KO'd early
I watch quite a lot and I also watch full matches rather than the YouTube highlights, so that’s maybe that’s how I saw more missed opportunities than you did.He missed 2, you probably don't watch a lot of football do you?
Yeah sure, show them to me then?I watch quite a lot and I also watch full matches rather than the YouTube highlights, so that’s maybe that’s how I saw more missed opportunities than you did.
He even missed a sitter served on a silver plate by from diMaria.Yeah sure, show them to me then?
He hits the post once, the other is stopped by Neuer and where are the other 1v1? A hint : nowhere.
The only thing remotely looking like a 1v1 is when he looses tracks of a deflected ball and try to score before the keeper gets it.
