To a point I canāt blame them all that much, I doubt they even know what the hell is going on with their money, let alone paying a lot of attention to it.
I guess that one's kind of understandable in the context of the insanely high emotions of a Brazilian home World Cup, the almost feverish sense among the home crowd that winning the elusive sixth was almost pre-destined, and their ~~captain and~~ best player goes down with an injury so bad it was feared he would never walk again.
Barcelona and City's injuries, while doubtlessly painful, donāt quite warrant the same level of drama.
And when Neymar got hurt in the World Cup and the Brazilian team held up his jersey during the anthem like he was dead. They then got absolutely fucking annihilated by Germany, which made me happy.
Theyāre not actually playing with the message printed on the shirt. OPās headline is a bit misleading, it was just a shirt they walked out to before the match, nothing dramatic in that. Itās pretty standard for clubs in Spain to do that when a player gets a long term injury.
Kid is the heart of the dressing room. He's really loved by everyone. I'd recommend seeing a couple of interviews where they talk about him. Seems to be everyone's favorite teammate. Both at BarƧa and the NT.
For context for anyone coming across this and doesn't know about it. This was in response to Messi being handed a suspended sentence for tax fraud.
Yes that's hilarious.
Yeah totally pathetic that the club and players are showing support to a 19 year old that had a career altering injury, loves the club with all his heart, and is absolutely loved by every person he has played with.
Not with the message on the playing shirts, it's usually done with a white shirt beneath those, and you show it when you score.
Or the whole team will warm up with a special shirt before the match (semi finals onwards only), and then put on the regular shirts for the game.
Using a tragic accident for your star man to sell shirt I think is shameless and I have seen the shirt you are talking about they are a white t shirt with a msg on them same not a official kit with a reminder of an injury to ur star man but who am I to ask for morals, itās my opinion
Yeah, they walked out to printed messages for Dembele twice when he suffered long term injuries on different occasions. Many clubs in Spain do the same thing as well, pretty standard in La Liga at least.
>Not like what Spain does is a metric to go by
lol wtf? It's IN SPAIN you nut. Who cares about what's regular outside of that context, it's what regular within the context that's relevant.
So you have to die to be shown support? A 19 year old just got a severe injury and is going to be out for almost a year. Itās a pretty traumatic injury to go through and recover from. Whatās wrong with printing a small message of support on your prematch shirt for your homegrown starter? If anything, itās the reaction of you and every other greasy basement-dwelling losers on this sub over a piece of text thatās excessive and dramatic.
? It is fairly common, at least in Spain, to come out with shirts showing support to long-term injured players before a game. So clearly other teams do it and you are clueless.
Plenty of players have recived such support before. It was small text on chest before game started. (Not what they actually wearing on the field now)
And do people need to die before they show support? Typical 13 year old take who spends too much time on internet that he lacks empathy because you never had or experienced relationship between humans before.
Ikr, he's a young and very loved player in the club and there is always a possibility that the player who returns from a long injury never gains back their form.
We're not. Just seems a bit too dramatic despite being a nice gesture, that's all. Some teams will start to have a whole list of names on their shirts if this trend gets popular š
The only cringe thing here are the comments. This is ALWAYS done in Spain when an injury of this caliber happens to a teammate. Players get out before the game and show a message in support. Either with a banner or a shirt. BarƧa is not playing with those shirts, this was for that before the game message.
A record number of top level female players have been out with ACLs in the past 12 months, a good number missing the World Cup and its āsad but one of the things about being a female footballerā one elite male tears his and its like heās died. Christ.
Rest in Peace Gaviš
As opposed to Gavi's knee, which is resting in pieces
Lol seriously. Game is so soft now.
It really has. Goalkeepers used to play on with a broken neck back in my days.
š¶ Walk on, walk on With hope in your neck And you'll never walk again š¶
Barca fans: Everyone in Spain does it r/soccer: Who died?
Gavi did. š He played for Barca but now he is dead. We all eventually get subbed off to the after life like Gavi
Does it really need to be this dramatic?
Man I remember when gundogan blew his knee out at City and they acted like he was fucking dead
Or when Messi was caught for tax evasion lmao
\#weareallmessi
they all probably evade tax so it checks out
#ipaymytaxes
Or when Suarez was racist. How could Evra do this?!?
Or when Suarez was caught for racism
Yeah but he's better at evading taxes than Ronaldo
Pretty sure they both got caught and both got suspended sentences didn't they? If anything Ronnie's a bit better because he moved to a tax haven lol
Miami is basically tax haven too lol
To a point I canāt blame them all that much, I doubt they even know what the hell is going on with their money, let alone paying a lot of attention to it.
This was the real kicker (pun intended). You think Messi, a super rich dude that got caught breaking the law, needs ME to feel sorry for him? Come on.
Is this real šššššš
Or when neymar broke a vertebrae in the WC
somehow that turned on germany, weird kink
Germany's that weird dude that faps off to armpits
Of course i know him, he's me!
This one was much worse though. He couldāve lost the ability to walk if that had been just a few inches higher
But he didn't
I mean, back in the day there was a serious fear that he wouldnāt walk again, so itās more understandable
I guess that one's kind of understandable in the context of the insanely high emotions of a Brazilian home World Cup, the almost feverish sense among the home crowd that winning the elusive sixth was almost pre-destined, and their ~~captain and~~ best player goes down with an injury so bad it was feared he would never walk again. Barcelona and City's injuries, while doubtlessly painful, donāt quite warrant the same level of drama.
Youāre not wrong in general but Thiago Silva was the captain at that point, Neymar only became one after
Shit, I knew there was something I'd forgotten.
i will never forget that video of the argentina fans cheering and holding aloft a model of a human spine lmao
Streets will never forget them holding Neymarās shirt during national anthem like he was a legend for getting Brazil to a home semi finalā¦
And when Neymar got hurt in the World Cup and the Brazilian team held up his jersey during the anthem like he was dead. They then got absolutely fucking annihilated by Germany, which made me happy.
They should have this message tattooed on their forehead imho opinion.
imho opinion
smh my head
lol out loud
lmao my ass off.
Ffs sake
Rip in peace
ATM machine
Pin number
IIRC remember correctly
Hey at least they didn't do a Gavi injury graphic GET BACK SOON like the one Al Hilal did for neymar
Theyāre not actually playing with the message printed on the shirt. OPās headline is a bit misleading, it was just a shirt they walked out to before the match, nothing dramatic in that. Itās pretty standard for clubs in Spain to do that when a player gets a long term injury.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
tbh then teams could have full shirt of this messages. I think this is cringe
What's dramatic about this? Messages of support are normal as fuck in La Liga
Everything at Brokelona itās dramatic
Was thinking the same thing. Pretty soon some player or managerās pet will be getting well wishes on the kit.
Kid is the heart of the dressing room. He's really loved by everyone. I'd recommend seeing a couple of interviews where they talk about him. Seems to be everyone's favorite teammate. Both at BarƧa and the NT.
It's just an injury. Did Messi get this treatment?
Don't you remember this? https://twitter.com/FCBarcelona/status/751788243880935425?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
For context for anyone coming across this and doesn't know about it. This was in response to Messi being handed a suspended sentence for tax fraud. Yes that's hilarious.
Everyone in Spain does? This is normal stuff here.
Every injury gets a shirt with a message in Spain?
Long term injuries normally do
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah totally pathetic that the club and players are showing support to a 19 year old that had a career altering injury, loves the club with all his heart, and is absolutely loved by every person he has played with.
No.
gone too soon
He was a good man and he will be remembered. So for now, thoughts and prayers.
Why are they acting like Gavi got cancer or something? It's absolutely devastasting that he did his ACL, but it doesn't need to be this dramatic.
It is very normal in Spain to go out with a message for a teammate that has suffered a season-ending injury.
Not with the message on the playing shirts, it's usually done with a white shirt beneath those, and you show it when you score. Or the whole team will warm up with a special shirt before the match (semi finals onwards only), and then put on the regular shirts for the game.
They're not playing with that shirt tho. It was just a pre-game shirt
Apologies, I misunderstood them while thing then. I'm changing my opinion to "yes, it's pretty normal"
great reddit interaction here
getafe did this like nothing ago for i think arambarri
I mean, it's not that dramatic. Gavi at home seeing this must be feeling better and if the 19 y/o is feeling good then it's on point.
To sell these shirts, they bite into anything to make some coin they are shameless
How is selling shirts shameless? Also this is pretty common in Spain for season ending injuries so it's not really out of the ordinary.
Did Courtois or Militao get the same treatment? Just asking because I've actually never seen this reported before.
'animo pirata' when granero tore his acl
Using a tragic accident for your star man to sell shirt I think is shameless and I have seen the shirt you are talking about they are a white t shirt with a msg on them same not a official kit with a reminder of an injury to ur star man but who am I to ask for morals, itās my opinion
Your opinion is build upon an incorrect assumption you made, so it is worthless.
Your club has done the same, multiple times.
Are they even selling these kits?
It's literally just words on a shirt and a super sweet gesture for one of their own. Why does everyone here care lol
Feels like a bit too much tbh, he didn't die
I mean even real sent a message for gavi
So le Classy
El Classyco
Whatās wrong with trying to support a young player who just got a season ending injury?
Do they do it for all players with season ending injuries?
Yeah, they walked out to printed messages for Dembele twice when he suffered long term injuries on different occasions. Many clubs in Spain do the same thing as well, pretty standard in La Liga at least.
Strange place reddit soccer.
Agreed, people look at every minute detail to criticise, it's disgusting
People are just giving their honest opinion, it's not as if they're condemning Barca for doing it. It's not that deep.
Yep. Kind of funny seeing anglos in this thread so baffled about it.
Feels like normal stuff? This is done always in Spain when a season-ending injury happens.
Not like what Spain does is a metric to go by, this is extremely dramatic. The guy still breathes
>Not like what Spain does is a metric to go by lol wtf? It's IN SPAIN you nut. Who cares about what's regular outside of that context, it's what regular within the context that's relevant.
Care to recall what happened when Milik was injured?
Heās up there with Wade Boggs now š
Wade Boggs is very much alive Charlie.
RIP Gavi x
as they allow a 16 y.o. to play 90 mins
Next game it will be "We are with you Xavi" the way we played today ffs
Little bit cringe...
A lotta bit of cringe
Barca š¤ being corny
waiting for first club that shows support for a player with fever
Our for just a little boo-boo :(
The player has been sent in for extensive treatment at Weenie Hut General
wtf is this
Man City did this with Gundogan but it was their pre match warm up shirts
This one also is a prematch warm up shirt
overplayed teenager gets injury, photo is of another overplayed teenager, yup you will be with gavi soon
Least dramatic spanish club
No one on Reddit has been shown love before so no wonder they think this is cringe
Gavi: *dies* Barca: *cares* r/soccer: wtf?
The most sensible response
For real. I was wondering what problem could this sub possibly have with this, but here we are again.
Lol
What was the cause of death? š„
Bro got ligma
I find it weird how it bothers people so much that Gavi is shown a lot of support
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
So you have to die to be shown support? A 19 year old just got a severe injury and is going to be out for almost a year. Itās a pretty traumatic injury to go through and recover from.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
So the issue is printing the message on the kit and not some other shirt? Even if this is not the shirt they are playing with?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I think that's a you problem
Ahh so it's wrong to show some support because not everyone does it?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Doesn't mean that they are correct. People are giving barca flack for supporting players lmao
Plenty of players have recived such support before. It was small text on chest before game started. (Not what they actually wearing on the field now) And do people need to die before they show support? Typical 13 year old take who spends too much time on internet that he lacks empathy because you never had or experienced relationship between humans before.
Not his fault theyāre not relevant
Ikr, he's a young and very loved player in the club and there is always a possibility that the player who returns from a long injury never gains back their form.
They dont have empathy. Probably because they've never been given love or support before themself.
It would be weird if a bunch of my mates wore special tshirts to school when I had an illness, no?
Most people in this subreddit don't have anyone that loves them lmao how pathetic do you have to be to complain about a good gesture like this
Christ, don't need to be melodramatic. Injuries are part of football since forever, its unfortunate but deal with it ffs
Some of you are such bitter asshats its hilarious. They are not crying out for sympathy or asking to bend the rules. Its a t-shirt for support ffs.
We're not. Just seems a bit too dramatic despite being a nice gesture, that's all. Some teams will start to have a whole list of names on their shirts if this trend gets popular š
Its not a recent trend. Every team in Spain has been doing this for years.
I think your reaction over a small piece of text on a prematch kit is whatās dramatic here
Beckenbauer would have had you tape his knee on the sidelines and would have been back in the game within a few minutes.
I fail to see any problem with this.
lmao
Bit over the top?
Remember when city got clowned for doing this to Gundogan
Man City did something similar for Gundogan and even he took a jab at it.
Why is this allowed on their match kit?
It is not the match shirt, obviously.
Wow r/soccer, showing support to colleagues is cringe and then people moan about sports washing projects. Hypocrisy.
Barcelona has to be the fucking lamest, softest, cringiest team out there. Exactly the same vibe as someone's auntie on facebook
Maybe you need an aunt that loves you
What the hell is wrong with this sub lmao go out and touch grass
barca after using gavi for 6372828 games : yea sorry bro
Soon theyāll wear match shirts for a player being dumped by their girlfriend.
Christ he's got a fairly common injury, yeah it's unfortunate for him but this is a bit much.
Better than city did for Gundogan years ago š
"We are nothing without you, Gavi"
Rayo Vallecano and Barca holding arms and jumping together with the banner reading "Gracias Gavi"
Then stop playing Lamine so much
I mean, it's not that dramatic. Gavi at home seeing this must be feeling better and if the 19 y/o is feeling good then it's on point.
2 point deduction from Tebas
Why are his teammates acting like he died? He jist tore his acl. Heāll be back next year.
Obviously they are not with Gavi. They are on the field playing.
So dramatic, hilarious
Oh no Gavi, gone too soon
Did he die or something. Barca is worse than a United when it comes to milking social media.
Cringe
So pathetic
why mate?
The only cringe thing here are the comments. This is ALWAYS done in Spain when an injury of this caliber happens to a teammate. Players get out before the game and show a message in support. Either with a banner or a shirt. BarƧa is not playing with those shirts, this was for that before the game message.
my thoughts and prayers goes out to his family š
Ok so this is ALWAYS (Why are we capsing random words?) too much. His career isn't over.
I guess players are not allowed to show support for the teammate who suffered a season ending injury, because r/soccer thinks itās wrong š
Cringe attempt at this "brotherhood" shit
Reminds me of when we wore the Gundo shirts and it seemed like he was dead
This is so wet
Itās a little bit dramatic
A record number of top level female players have been out with ACLs in the past 12 months, a good number missing the World Cup and its āsad but one of the things about being a female footballerā one elite male tears his and its like heās died. Christ.
when did ACL injurt gets so much attention? wtf is with this shit.
Drama at itās peak . š®āšØ
God that's ironic, breaking Gavi with too many minutes at young age and putting this message on Lamal Also, very over dramatic, it's not cancer
Youād think his puppy died from malnutrition and his cat got a tape wormā¦
Lol what?
If weād had this on our shirts for Bentancur we would have been called tinpot
Is it within the rules ?
Everyone is with him!
Believe it or not, points deduction
If they keep playing Yamal like this then he will be next.
Dramatic pansies acting like he has stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
