Reminds me of the time Falcao, Higuain and Benzema all hit 20+ goals in La Liga. 24, 22 & 21 goals respectively.
It was like they didn’t exist because Ric Flair scored 46 goals and Rey Mysterio scored 50. Terrible people.
The reactions to “Dibu” are interesting. “Love this guy”, “elite shithousery”, “he owns the French people again”. Media hailing him, fans loving it, all that.
Meanwhile, Vini’s existence draws ire and racist abuse.
We know what it is, and why. We know.

Rodri sounds exactly like Xavi and many of the Spanish players from that generation used to. The belief that you “deserve” to win because you had more ball possession is ingrained in them.
