Brazilian flair players washed up by 31.

This is football heritage

Sad reality. Every one of the latest brazilian offensive superstars, actually. Neymar, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Adriano, Ronaldo, Rivaldo... All of them for different reasons, but all of them fell of a cliff at 31 or earlier

Coutinho and Douglas Costa too. Could probably name a few more if i think hard

Ronaldo

Came back from two back to back potentially career-ending injuries to win the World Cup

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

Oh wow really I've never heard of that before!! Now seriously, ronaldo was 26-27 when he won the world cup. OP said 31. Ronaldo was fat and a shadow of himself at 31

Except Thiago Silva, that dude is still a beast at his age

How do Argentinian players fare? Geographically so close but are the football styles ever so slightly different that the Argentina players age more gracefully? Obviously the current squad is pretty young. But go a few years back.

I mean I don’t even have to discuss La Pulga but look at Di Maria, Dybala, Perez, Masche, Otamendi, etc
