He’s supremely talented, that has never been in question, however, he’s the epitome of selfish in high pressure situations, which is mainly evident on the CL stage….. he’d be a revelation if he could find a humble bone.. at his best he’s unplayable but let’s not kid ourselves that he’s in cruise mode 90% of the season against mediocre opposition!This is so… four, five years ago? After the 2018 World Cup for which he got so much stick, the “diving and whining” was severely toned down. I dare anyone to watch him the past few years and tell me he’s anywhere near a Salah or Mane for instance. On the other hand, he’s by far the most fouled player on Ligue 1, sometimes violently, and referees don’t necessarily “protect” players there. That part gets ignored. In the last Copa América final, five Argentinian players received yellow cards from fouling him

I agree. However, in terms of us as a club he’d be just as uninspiredHe's already achieved much more in his career than Robinho and was always more talented.
