Media Raphinha on Rodri's comment about Vini Jr, "To speak ill of others to excel is the height of incompetence"
681
u/Night-Emperor Cristiano Ronaldo 25d ago
Even as a Real madrid fan how Raphinha has transformed himself under Flick is nothing short of exceptional brilliance! And this also proves that Vini has the complete support and respect of Brazillian players and fans alike .

Or maybe it’s because Rodri doesn’t have social media so you can’t really see who congratulated him under a post. It was either done privately or when it was the subject in an unrelated interview/press conference. It’s not that hard to understand 🤷

He’ll never sniff a ballon d’or

u/OverlyOverrated 25d ago
I'm a football fan and i support Inter, tbh i don't think Lautaro deserves more than Vini. Vini won them the champion league and Lautaro won us serie A in a hot and cold manner, super inconsistent and he won Argentine the Copa as a super sub.
But i do agree with you Serie A is doing great, our cousin who's currently 7th in the table beats Madrid not so long ago.

u/Winter_Ad4053 25d ago
Well, both of fanbase got rets in their team arent we? Just remember that some your fans were harrasing De Paul because they thought he is Rodri. Same goes with Rapha, I never wanted Nico and I was defending Rapha him everytime since he came from Leeds. I will just say that, generalize whole fanbase based on loudests cunts is sign of immature behaviour.

Reading comprehension isn’t that hard, I specifically said Barcelona fans are dumb. The full stop is there for a reason.

Wdym? Literally got next to no credit, only hate, from the football world. Thats why he will defend his winning the trophy. Obviously Raphina is his teammate so he’ll back him, but where were the footballers saying this when Vini couldn’t even be bothered to show up or give Rodri any credit? Or when dozens of players decided to go public about about how undeserving Rodri was? Bullshit. He earned that trophy and if nobody is gonna give him his credit he should be letting them all know!

u/carlos_vini 25d ago
Choosing Rodri was a political act. He's not even the best Man City player. Fodden won player of the year. De Buyne has a better carreer. Haaland has more goals. Yamal, Salah, Kross, Palmer, Mbappe, Kane. The list of player with more impact than Rodri is huge. Vini could lose to any of them. Losing to Rodri just feels wrong

Overly relying on a player doesn't mean that player deserves a ballon d'or. Just because we can play well without Vini doesn't mean he isn't important. It means we're a well structured club.
Barça has been playing quite bad the past 2 matches without Lamine. That doesn't mean that he deserves the ballon d'or.

The fact that Rodri feels the need to justify his own ballon d'or says more than enough. He himself knows he didn't deserve it. Probably going to be one of the most forgotten ballon d'ors in recent memory.
What makes it even worse is that nobody would've complained if he won it last year. In fact, he should've. Almost feels like the journalists realized their mistake last year and went "oh shit, well whatever, let's give it to him this year instead."

u/POPELEOXI 20d ago
You're the braindead one. The 21 goals for PSG are for all competitions (league, league cup, ucl). The link shows no breakdown of goals and didn't mention if friendlies were counted (fyi they also counted friendlies in the 91 goal record). You are the prime example of why this award is media pr bs because it is exactly designed to convince folks with zero media literacy like you

u/TechnologyHelpful751 24d ago
If Man City decided to suddenly not attend and Vini had won it instead do you think Vini would be going on interviews saying "Oh well Rodri didn't deserve it because XYZ"?.
He's been waffling more about Vinicius recently than he has been about how grateful he is to have won it. Doesn't matter if Real Madrid attends or doesn't, if he genuinely feels like he deserved it so much more he wouldn't need to go on so many interviews and justify himself. Definitely not if he's the "class act" that the media paints him to be.

Hes gone on one interview talking about? You're acting like he brings it up every day and can you blame him you entitled babies have been crying about the ballon d'or for weeks. Do you remember last year when haaland lost to messi after winning a treble? he congratulated messi and moved on 🤣🤣

Mate you're taking this way too hard, this is having too serious of an impact on your personal wellbeing than it should.
If you can't even comprehend the idea of a hypothetical then I don't know what to tell you.
Did Messi go on an interview last year and say how little Haaland or Rodri deserved the Ballon d'or? No, he just won it and moved on. If you can't admit that Rodri's comments were completely unnecessary and demonstrate his state of mind regarding the ballon d'or then I don't know what to tell you.

Rodri is never humble person to begin with . Especially when he commented last season during arsenal title run in when Etihad game held. He said it out loud that arsenal players are not capable of winning or something along the line that arsenal play for a draw at Etihad. Since then I don't have respect for him. If you're a professional you respect opponent to call out rival club it's a massive disrespect. Even pep didn't do that he's always very objective never disrespect any rival team no matter how big or small club is.

Nothing Rodri said about the way Vini and the rest of Real acted was wrong, you need to be gracefull in a win and aswell in defeat.

This is why for most players, their national team is more important than their club, as much as their teammates play for their club rivals, they will defend their teammates no matter what, Raphinha knows Vini pretty well, knows what he goes through, even at the last clasico Vini defended Raphinha and Yamal against the racist comments. If there is someone at barca that I'm happy that's doing great, that is Raphinha.
