Vinicius doesn't party like Neymar. He won't lose his talent..

@alandemaio3043 Ай бұрын

He got angry issues, he should deal with it

@decode3667 Ай бұрын

In 21/22, vs Mallorca, there were racist chants toward Vini & Rodrygo. Maffeo & Railo went out to injure both of them(Railo succeeded & called Rodrygo a "good kid but soft), Vini avoided Maffeo & he got a yellow card. Vini posted a pic of him bodying Maffeo with dribbling & Maffeo posted a pic of him aiming for his knee. Media gave attention to rotten players, Maffeo labelled Vini as a provocateur & that he deserved. Since then, media went on with this narrative of provocateur. I am sick of parasites in the media that create hate & stir up toxicity.

Objectivelly speaking, what's the issue? He plays well, dribbles and then when he scores he has to hear 50 thousand people being racist... Is playing well a bad thing now? I never see Vini making dangerous fouls against other players, except for when that Leipzig player made a foul on him and the referee didn't give the dude a deserved card.

@sumethanarulanantham9676 Ай бұрын

He got yellow card straight up ! You don’t give red for that ! Even if he wasn’t got please punish There is absolutely no need for vini to punch him. Vini loses him temper easily ! Even he was arguing with joselu against Spain . He feed to just focus on football ! Not what fans do !

@RafRiz Ай бұрын

Imagine if you always feel a lot of aggressive comments and reactions from crowds and press, even when you play well and do your job very well? What these racist people want is what the most of black players do: just play and accept it without complaining. Vini jr is fighting against these culture and is a proud black player. If he was white, nothing of these complaints wouldn’t even happen. Much more violent and with less talent were applauded and well received by both crowd and press.

Stop projecting & labelling Vini as Neymar, it's crazy. Vini dives to protect himself, if you watched the abuse he gets since Castilla days, you'd understand.

Vini shouldn't provoke too much and play quietly like others. What happens if a white boy has the same attitude as Vini? Would he be blammed like this? Would he have to stop to avoid racism chants?

First, your comment reflects anti-white bigotry...so if you're trying to prove a moral point, you're not doing a good job. Second, I assume that if a bunch of "white boys" from Europe played for Santos or Flamengo, you'd probably hear more than a dozen insults from fans. If those same players constantly tried to provoke the opponents and their fans and went on smear campaigns saying Brazil is racist and things must change, they would certainly be disliked

@aragao85 Ай бұрын

@stanislavlacko7577 are you saying that “acting like an idiot” is an excuse and give others a free ticket to be racist? I see white players acting cocky and being provocateurs in Europe and in South America. They’re called many things, not monkeys or chimpanzees. There have been other cases of racism in Europe with other players that were not as “shiny” and “spotlighted” as Vinicius.

@aragao85 Ай бұрын

@sottovoce4626 you’re wrong here, mate… I’m not trying to prove anything. I consider myself white, so leave that narrative out of here. You should go and do some research. There’s an enormous number of white boys that are playing in many clubs in Brazil, from many different countries in the world. If they provoke the crowd, they’re booed and they can’t get insulted just like other players. There are many cases where stupid people cross the line, especially in predominantly white population, and they are caught and identified (as many of them have), they go to jail. There’s no discussion around what the player’s done. It’s simply out of bounds, out of question. My point is not every player or human being has the same history and consequent behaviour. Some black boys may have suffered more with racism throughout their lives than others. They will react differently when they’re in this uncomfortable position of being called slurs by thousands of people. It’s very easy for me at my age, and to football analysts in their 50-60s to say that they should chill and just ignore and play.

@sottovoce4626 Ай бұрын

@@aragao85 Your comment kind of reinforces my point. If foreign white players in Brazil provoke others or behave like idiots, they're jeered as one would expect...maybe crudely insulted by some. The difference here is that there is no international globalist smear campaign by those players or the media against Brazilians, nor should there be. It isn't for globalist media to lecture Brazil and Brazilians on how to run their affairs or their society. Vinicius isn't some "innocent black boy" either. People of all ages make mistakes, but he's been in Spain for many years now, more than enough to learn that you should have a minimum amount of respect for the country and its people (his attitude is FAR from respectful). I think he's shown fervent support for BLM on his social media...that says a lot about him. He's not a victim...more like a race-baiting con artist. I agree his perspective is probably very different (vs older fans), but if he stops acting like a brat the fans' animosity will also dissipate.

Ibrahimovic. None of those guys were spoken about like they are doing Vini Jr now. His only problem is that he is being an annoying player while black.

Barça have a history of beloved Brazilian players with the likes of Ronaldinho. They have always been an inclusive club . And some of the few clubs in Spain that officially support every cause not only in terms of race but also gender.

What this commentators are constantly asking of players is that they shut up and entertain us, they aren't seen as normal human beeings, they are expected to be abused and not react to it at all.
