    Bro is literally made of paper. But no one should be celebrating this we miss out on seeing such talent that Neymar possesses, I feel bad for him no one deserves something like this

    This is so tragic to me, I remember say to myself that he wasn’t injury prone at all before 2018 since he always seemed to bounce back after being clattered all the time, dude was alway in the top 10 most fouled any given year :( His foot never was the same after the first injury

      Insone think he’s injury prone, he just get hit a lot more then then other players. He’s hunted in the field.

        The bugger reason is his lack of focus on fitness and partying style, there is no reason he would get more hit than most.

          That always seemed to be a mystery to me that messi is always so healthy. I would love an expert to chime in as to what the difference is.

            Extremely strong Core strength. Ronaldo has it and Messi has it.

            In basketball. LeBron james and Steph curry have it too.

              Way more than that, lmao. All professional players have insanely strong cores, this is not special and will not be the difference maker to the degree we are seeing in terms of longevity.

              In basketball. LeBron james and Steph curry have it too.

              Irrelevant, take your sports that nobody cares about outta here.

          Messi is blessed in terms of genetics, very professional, and also walks less than the keeper in a lot of matches he participates. His playstyle with nearly 0 defensive duties certainly helped his longevity

            He isn’t Haaland, Mbappe or a random 9, he actually plays in the middle of the pitch and falls back consistently. I think the main reason he stayed healthy apart from being professional is because he could just dribble and move faster and more efficiently than anyone else so he just avoided being physically dominated by other players going after his legs.

              He walks more than all of those. Messi has been noted to simply stand still or walk since at least 2014, after he got a few pretty bad injuries in a roll (culminating with Barcelona getting destroyed by Bayern Munchen in the UCL with him in the bench). It’s when he went from Gazelle 2012 Messi that sprinted all over the place to his current “energy-saving” form. This hit adds up, the man has run and has been fatigued significantly less than other players of similar age.

              I literally mentioned 3 factors that help him get injured less even when brutally tackled. Good genetics, professional, and less cumulative fatigue.

          He’s smaller so people don’t hit as hard. People should have seen Ronaldo in EPL pre Madrid. He was getting hacked so hard.

        People overestimate the impact of diet and lifestyle and underestimate genetics & just plain luck when it comes to injuries. Some people just have extremely resilient bodies and some people people bodies just can’t take the stress.

        As a software engineer, I’ve seen people who take frequent breaks, maintain good posture, do yoga etc struggle with RSI and others can sit on a chair for 12 hours with almost no breaks and be completely fine.

    NEYMAR WAS BORN WITH GLASS BONES & PAPER SKIN Every morning he breaks his legs & every afternoon he breaks his arms. At night, he lays in agony until his heart attacks put him to sleep.

    Which makes me respect the general fitness of Ronaldo and Messi even more. Flamboyant dribblers do not have long selves life in this age.

      They have great general fitness, but I don’t think there’s a thematic crossover here

        This took me out. Just because it was one of the last things I was expecting to read 😄

        It’s odd this dribbling ability just fell off a cliff

    It shows you how much mental fortitude it takes to perform at the highest level. Messi, Ronaldo and now Salah have the skill and the mental attributes but it takes a whole different person to take care of your body to perform at that level.

    Neymar is probably the most skilled out of them all but the work ethic is closer to Ronaldinho. He could’ve been a beast if he cared more about his legacy like Messi did.

    What is frustrating is, I, ME, I never knew when Neymar really got injured, because there was so much diving and all the bullshit. Really sad to see him out with an ACL, speedy recovery.

    That’s why it wasn’t a good idea to any European club to pay that amount of money to get him. He is too injury prone and now in his 30s he has already reached his cealing.
