Yeah as I said, at least 15 season of consistent goal scoring and title winning

But who knows

I meant that, Haaland's best goalscoring season is still very far away from the numbers Messi and Cristiano put during their peak. So he still needs to get better than his current peak, and maintain the level for 15 years.

Right lmao came on now. Just having Brazil as your nationality already gets guarantees you a big payout and a ton of media attention. You could have 2 young players of the same caliber, same skillset, same achievements, one from Brazil and the other from England. Who gets more attention?

Could you imagine if Saka was Brazilian? He would be in everyones top player list, he barely gets any love besides from Arsenal fans.

[–] Lutzelien@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah definitely, although you are comparing his first season in a top level team (no offense Dortmund lol) to the best numbers Messi and Ronaldo ever put up.

We would need to talk about this matter in like 7 years or so.

Imagine being brazilian and thinking players from your country don't get enough hype lol. You're fine. Endrick was crowned the next Pele before he even turned 16.

Because Real Madrid literally showed in practice that whenever they pay tens of millions for a Brazilian kid, there is a high chance that it was a good deal. Neymar, Vini, Rodrigo and Marcelo had to prove this on the pitch, all being vital in UCL wins, objectively undeniable success. Others get much more praise with way less done. It extends beyond the guys I mentioned - just compare how much attention is given to Alisson or Ederson relative to Ter Steven or Courtois, too. Alisson, like Vini, was snubbed from being in the list of the best keeper; Casemiro and Thiago Silva had to move to England in their 30s to start being seen after very successful careers. Can you imagine the attention that an English kid would get for doing this and what rodrygo did to city?
