Kenny Tete, RB from Lion
[video=streamable;hvnvf]https://streamable.com/hvnvf[/video]
Nice marking but there is more to a player aside 1 incident...
I must say if there is a player that can stop Neymar on a constant basis while positioning himself good with his teammates we should definitely sign him
Messi is the best player in the world (maybe even all time best) but in terms of pure dribbling skills Neymar is easily the best dribbler
PSG in terms of potential should be second only to Real..

I know that, don't have idea about how good he is on constant basis (haven't watched enough Lion games to have opinion). But Juve is in need of a decent RB and having on mind young, promising, unexpensive, EU passport player cannot hurt. Maybe someone who knows League1 can inform us is there some quality in Tete.

If those 2 goals are what convinced you to post this question than just watch the goals again - The goals were from poor shots from Pellegri and should have been saved by the GK - IMO the GK is to be blamed for both goals...
Acually is not based on those two goals. Still as a 16 year old scoring 3 Seria A goals already is eye catching no matter how good those goals were. He looks promising and we should consider his acquistion.

Hell no. Messi with the ball stuck to his feet is a lot harder to dispossess and his decision making on the ball is a LOT better. Neymar has fancy dribbling but nowhere as effective as Messi. I'd definitely rather have Neymar run straight at 3 defenders with the ball than Messi (if I am the defending team that is).

Hey....do you hear that sound? It's really faint, but if you listen carefully it's definitely there. It sounds like
Parisian hands being tied :tuttosport:

Also fuck Neymar, and fuck that dirty fucking rat bitch Dani Alves.
This kind of public bickering by professional footballers is utterly pathetic. If necessary, the coach or captain should then decide on a hierarchy of who takes what set pieces

It really is. But when you see Neymar and Dani Alves at the center of it, it's not surprising. Disgusting individuals.

Definitely poor Cavani having to deal with this. Perhaps will be looking for new team in January and willing to accept significantly lower paycheck :baus:
Then they'd be looking for a replacement, possibly a south-american deemed surplus that has a good track record of scoring goals but flopping in finals and big moments.... :think:

Messi is amazing dont get me wrong and overall Messi is a much better player but dribbling wise alone not talking about knowing when to pass and when to dribble.. Dribbling alone Neymar is definitely the best.
Id rather have Neymar run straight too since Neymar is more predictable than Messi as Messi can use his teammates while Neymar will probably try it by himself but If you take a situation which Neymar is vs 3 and Messi vs 3 with no options to pass - The only way to go is dribble past them Neymar is your guy.

Remember our games vs Barca last year? Everytime Messi tried to dribble he was blocked by our defenders since we were great and organized while Neymar occasionally gone past one and even two but was eventually blocked as he tried to dribble just too much.

I think dribbling wise Neymar is unmatched while at being the best in the world Messi has no real rivals...

Back to our team we are linked with Oblak - my favorite but I doubt we will see it happening as he is just too pricey..

Dribbling wise Denilson probably would still kick everyone's ass being 40 years old, but his whole career is the perfect example on why it's a useless skill if you're mediocre at everything else
