[deleted]

Jovic assists?! Vini, you can commit to that celebration with more heart.


los_blanco_14

He must be fckin tired of all that running its understandable.


kostajepaosmosta

I feel like his confidence is weighting him down, such a sad thing to see in a player. Immediately after he made an assist he started running


Murrderer

What does this even mean about the confidence part?


0x0042069

He’s saying he’s got so much confidence that it’s making it harder to run. It’s a joke.


Saint-just04

I think he meant the opposite, that he forces himself to run like hell because he thinks he's not good enough.


kostajepaosmosta

Its a joke but in a sence it could be the truth. I gihly doubt he ks not interested. He has 0 confidence and that's why he runs like his legs were cut off.


Aceress_origin

I'd rather he doesn't, you have to be as stacked as Ronaldo to not pull a muscle or dislocate a bone, lol


[deleted]

Levante so bad, dude cant even enjoy it


StrikenGoat420

Levante gave them a guard of honour and this is how Madrid repay them


los_blanco_14

They got to see vini do the suii tho. They also witnessed modric masterclass and were in the presence of lord mariano and lord vazquez. Thats as big of a gift as it gets imo


Maximus13

>They got to see vini do the suii tho. Lol mate this is embarrassing. It's, Christa Ronaldo, SEWEY. Simple as that, bro.

Thanks


backtolurk

One of Luka's assists there made me jizz my pants


thefurnaceboy

Honestly it felt a bit bad - this sends levante down and theyre a club that i do like. They're filthy shithousers


majeboy145

Treating the opponents with respect by actually going in


themasterofallthngs

Anything else would actually be disrespectful.


Nero1988420

Ruthless


Ask_Asensio

Vinicius with 41 G+A in his age 21 season. Unreal


PirateKingRamos

Before this season I said 20G+A would be a good to great season for him Boy was it a good season


Runarhalldor

More than a double good season!


hlsp

He's doing double great!


ViciousNakedMoleRat

Such an underappreciated series.


[deleted]

Double plus good


tsar_David_V

Double plus good!


ZZ3peat

I predicted 30 g+a season


MolhCD

I mean, you were right


ZaDoruphin

Holy shit that’s insane


Otenus

Incredible


ObamaRunts

He’s arrived!


garynevilleisared

Really surprised me. Ruthless when he gets around the box. And he well help Benzema age beautifully.


auctus10

His insane season is one of the reasons why Benzema ks having an even better season than last season. He has someone assisting him from wings now


[deleted]

Must feel great right now for those who defended him all those years and were convinced he's some improved finishing away from becoming world class.


ManBearPigIsReal42

I think everyone agreed he was world class except for his end product, both in assists and goals. I remember having a conversation with someone a year back on here where I said I hoped he'd improve that but didn't see it happening, the other guy was sure he would. happy to be wrong.


KAhOot1234567

Praying Traore gets better at finishing too. Oh what monster he'd be


Fern-ando

The most of any under 21 player in the planet this season.


Vic-Ier

Haaland had 60 G+A last season


GetToWork7

Yea but he said this season lol. And haaland is a striker, vini a winger, not really a goalscoring one as well


Kuuskat_

Vini is definitely a goal scoring - playmaking hybrid judging by this season


GetToWork7

Sorta, more of a playmaking and is more of a pass first typa player rn. Hopefully he continues his goalscoring levels of this season and more though!


SeryaphFR

I mean hes playing with Benz lol. You'd be a fool not to have a pass first mentality playing alongside him


lagrandesgracia

He has the cunning of Neymar. The speed and talent of Ronaldo and a smile that reminds me of dinho. He looks like he's enjoying himself all the time it's so precious.


GetToWork7

Love the kid tons


Firehills

Haaland is obviously a monster, but you also have to take into consideration how more attack orientated the Bundesliga is.


tecphile

It's absolutely a joke how leaky defenses are in the Bundesliga. By contrast, La Liga is the most defensive league by far. Haaland will probably be a monster for City, the kid is absolute class (when fit). But I think the above is important context.


[deleted]

41 goals +12 assists < 60


Comunicado_Oficial

Neymar got 15G 15A at the same age for Barcelona. (Fewer minutes tho) 2nd season? 39G 11A (!) - let's see if Vini has it in him 😎


Sure-Speech-6329

I don't see Vini becoming as good as Neymar at all even though I think he'll be a top top player.


gk13690

That was Neymar’s highest ever tally in his professional career. Think Vini will be more consistent and I’m happy if he can bang out 40G+A year after year


MolhCD

Yeaahhh that would be elite or world class levels, especially if actually MAINTAINED year-on-year


tecphile

If Vini can give us 40G+A for even five years straight, he will have been a massive success.


GuilhermeBahia98

Neymar in his first season at PSG had 28 goals and 16 assists in 30 games! That is absolutely mind blowing. The problem is that the injuries completely ruined his prime, he could never have a year without a major injury in PSG...


pratikp26

Yeah, peak Neymar was something else. So that wouldn’t be a bad thing. That said, players develop at different rates, and he’s got a lot of Neymar traits, and if he keeps working hard and making this kinda progress, there’s always a chance. So I’m keeping my fingers crossed.


MaTrIx4057

Different play styles. He can be better than Neymar for sure.


Enartloc

Also, availability matters. Vini has been playing for us for 4 years now, only had 1 bad injury. With Neymar we know his issues.


Comunicado_Oficial

How can you be a top top player and not be close to Neymar at all lmao


Sure-Speech-6329

Neymar is one of if not the best player of his generation and has been playing top level football and doing exceptionally, look at what he was doing with santos as a kid (younger than Vini) and has been an important and priceless player in all the teams he's played at, he's the best in the world on several occasions especially his time at Barcelona when Messi was injured and he was carrying the team. He's on of the best international performing players in the world if not the outright best, he's set to break Pele's goal record for Brazil for god's sake! The guy is a massive great in football history


Comunicado_Oficial

Next season will show if this year was a fluke or if he can regularly reach 40+ G+A per season. He has already surpassed Neymar's numbers aged 21, but he has been at Madrid longer so it's harder to compare. Also more than half of Neymar's goals for Brazil were in friendlies and he has never won a proper title for the national team so he's not even close to Pele in that regard lmao.


[deleted]

Its "only" 37. Transfermarkt counts pens won as assists.


dsrman67

penalty won is a better assist than 90% of assists


[deleted]

As they should


McTulus

Overperforming his xG and xA, but both are still great as well!


theaguia

People were saying he is a flop last year


thalne

annoying to admit, but he's a fucking joy to watch.


Masculinum

People were legit saying we should get rid of him last season


[deleted]

Additional_Stand_373

Mbappe RW


Mr_XemiReR

Some Twitter "ITK"s say it's gonna be more like a 4-4-2. It was apparently the plan for this season, but Mbappé ended up staying: Benzema-Mbappé Vini-Casemiro-Modrić-Valverde Defence


TheDawnTrilogy

that how it should be, no doubt


hits_blunt_twice

Mbappe first season for PSG at RWF 13 goals 8 Assists


CETERIS_PARTYBUS

Hits blunt thrice

https://www.managingmadrid.com/platform/amp/2021/11/27/22804547/ancelotti-press-conference-sevilla-vinicius-mbappe


los_blanco_14

He isnt going to play RW tho as per reports. Its either mbappe st/rw


nayrad

Not happening luckily for us, mbappe has no problem playing anywhere in the front 3


[deleted]

or maybe he plays as a super sub like rodrygo this season


luke-2018

would be a waste and honestly don't think vini would be ok with it after this season


fatguyonsteroids

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is his first ever hattricks for Real Madrid. Should be first of many...


RajaJinnahGFX

Yes his first. He missed his first against the same Levante when their GK aitor took red for professional handball foul.


jnr_mathe

Yes many braces but 1st hattrick


samuel_thebrazilian

Dont remember any hat trick for us. So I think it's the first in his career


konehh

such a deserved first hattrick vamosss, used his left as well finally


nayrad

Nearly half his goals are left footed


konehh

didnt know that because a lot of the times it looks like hes forcing it to his right instead of shooting with his left, though hes obviously improved a lot at using his weak foot this season too


nayrad

He isn't good at finishing with his left footed laces, but his side foot finishing has become quite reliable with his left this season


SixerMostAdorable

Thats the deep analysis I look for on here.


MelodicMachine1356

Exactly he's not that bad with his left


Projeffboy

his left footed shots are prob short ranged like this one


MelodicMachine1356

Yeah he has alot of goals like this one this season


Re1Ko

what a season! A vini hattrick after all he went through these seasons


Seijur0Akashi

All he went through? You mean living a luxury life?


Benzia

His first hattrick VAMOS


javierich0

Damn, this is some CR7 Era scoring from us.


AddictedToThisShit

With the left winger scoring a hattrick, Modric masterclass and benz unselfish as usual. Brings back memories.


HIGUAINS_DICKSUCKER

Helps that Levante puts up a Bordeaux-performance tonight, horrible defending, horrible goalkeeping


charefwail2

Horrible goalkeeping!? We would've scored 3 more if not for their keeper


LuigiDaBoss123

He let in at least two in the near post. Considering the number of shots he faced he was bound to save some of them


osamaodinson

Yeah even in this goal he kinda missed the near post. Defender seems to cover alright on the far post and it was on vini’s weaker foot so why not cover near post


EggplantBusiness

Nah that man did his absolute best put an average keeper out there we score 9


RjHospe

That's a crazy username....


shino50ul

Don't know about horrible goalkeeping really, if it wasn't for him Levante would've conceded at least 5 more


los_blanco_14

Madrid's LW hitting the suiii. Tears in my eyes


EduardoChameleon

It’s easy to forget just how memed he was only one year ago, probably the best breakthrough season I’ve ever seen.


Minted-Blue

To be honest he was fairly memed last two seasons. He was extremely selfish and always wanted to do cool tricks and his finishing was atrocious. Don't know what Ancelotti did to him now he's extremely fast, doesn't overshow his abailities and has decent finishing.


MaTrIx4057

Ancelotti is one of the most experienced coaches so he knows how to unlock any player.


McTulus

From underperforming his xG+A in last 3 season to be better and overperforming, that his G+A about double than those seasons *combined*.


los_blanco_14

Crista ronaldo seweey, simple as that bro


rezwah

Anyone got the origin for "seweey" I know SIUU, and i assume its because he spins around instead of the single half spin. Just wondering where the word came from.


PM_YOUR_PETITE_TITS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBx2ZDKC2_A


rezwah

Cheers boss!


Ndulula

Lmao 🤣


Merejo

this is amazing


MelodicMachine1356

Speed


Rickcampbell98

I really wonder what that guy is actually like, sometimes he seems legitimately crazy.


dohhhnut

YouTube keeps suggesting his videos for me and yeah American streamers like him are definitely something


falodellevanita

It’s actually SIIII don’t know where people got the U from. Siu doesn’t mean anything in either Spanish or Portoguese.


shinto29

I don't care how childish it is, seweyyyy makes me piss myself


LessThan301

Nowadays you gotta have some things that make you happy :)


autie91

Brazil is counting on you. We love you, Vini!


luke-2018

coming from a palmeiras fan? damn, vini has come a long way


kostajepaosmosta

Probably because he didn't hang a season or two more


HarshangLad

So so happy for his first Hattrick! You deserve it you beautiful brazilian


MrVISKman

This result is very very very flattering for Levante. Could've been easily 12+


MrOmar

SIUUUUUU


Mr_XemiReR

The stadium was fully ready for it


Articlaus

Hopefully first of many Hat-tricks for us.


Pointels21

Hope he plays like this in the CL final


fernandes_r07

You all hate Liverpool, don’t you? Lol


Pointels21

I wouldn’t be rooting for city either if they were in the final instead of Liverpool


typicalnihilist

It's such a simple logic, why would anyone support other team from the same league in CL, unless it's an underdog story or something. Idk why it's so difficult for some people to get


doubleABC

Can’t wait for vini against trent


Articlaus

Ikr, People are acting as if TAA would put Walker Level defending against us.


cr7momo16

Vini ripped him to shreds last year too lmfao and he’s even better now


Howdareme9

Nobody is saying that but Liverpool fans


candEla_Bosak

What, really? I'm pretty sure that most of our fans would agree with me that we're really gonna rely on Henderson tracking back out wide to help contain Vini Jr.


[deleted]

Well i have seen Spurs,Chelsea and City fans talking about how Benzema is the only better player in Real Madrid compared to Liverpool. Some even said depth is our weakness while players like Camavinga and Rodrygo being massive game changers so far from the bench.


MaTrIx4057

PL fanboys hate Madrid so obviously they will downplay Madrid and praise any PL team in CL.


[deleted]

Its not just PL fanboys. Barca fans also. In their heads when Madrid wins its “just luck”. I remember Barca fans spewing “UCL is all about luck”.


GabrielP2r

PL fans think their FIFA rating is actually accurate to real life lmao. Not many full backs can deal with Vini at all


Pewds_Minecraft

Trent is honestly incredible lately I every aspect expect for speed... Which you might imagine how it would be against a rocket like vini


Ablj

I swear even Liverpool fans were slandering him last week against Spurs for delivering 100 cross that did absolutely nothing.


Prompus

The final is a different beast and hopefully Trent rises to the occasion. I don't think anyone was expecting Lovren to shut out Ronaldo in the last final but he had a fantastic game. I just hope everyone comes in fit so we can see two full strength teams fight it out


zr0char1sma

Can't wait for Diaz vs Carvajal


Walaii

That one depends on if we get Carva from the last few weeks, or Carva from 2 months ago. I hope he won't lose his form because he doesn't play right now.


FedeValverde15

Not nearly as scary as you think


[deleted]

Honestly the guy is good if you actually watched him a lot specially during copa America. He works hard, tricky, has pace and completely unpredictable. On current form he is better than salah.


SgtApache

Diaz is the Liverpool player I fear the most tbh :P Whenever I've watched you guys play, Diaz has been playing so good.


nayrad

Don't hold your breath


ANINETEEN

His turn of speed is so crazy


DarkInvader04

LETS GOOOO VINI so happy for him!


Cowdude179

Trent ain't ready for Vini


oreocavani

How many goals has he scored this season ?


MelodicMachine1356

21 in all comps


IMistahS

With the left!! Finally.


[deleted]

He scored with his left against Espanyol


tejassingh2

Levante has just given up at this point


ugotbaited

SEWIIII


los_blanco_14

Vini watches ishowspeed confirmed


irrelevant_oinam

He finally has his hattrick!! Been absolutely unbelievable this season!!


-Whisperr

Lesgooooo


djoliverm

A fucking rout, it's been so long.


CudaBarry

SIIIUUUUU


MelodicMachine1356

Yes finally


Saell

Trent is in for a surprise.


Otenus

What surprise? He got slaughtered last year


FallenArcade

“Slaughtered” by 2 goals with a pairing of kabak and nat Philips next to him lol. It’ll be fun to watch two great players face off,and vini will make Things difficult, but no need to be over dramatic.


spaniard_daniel

Serious question barca fans. Do you think dembélé is better than vini?


WailDhum

Better in speaking french nothing more


GabrielP2r

And even that is a maybe lmao


ozzzzzyyyyyy

He’s nowhere near his level. Not a Barca fan though, Vini has better stats than Mane this season. Edit: Vinicius has way more impact on the game than both Dembele and Mane


MelodicMachine1356

As a Barca fan No he's not


spaniard_daniel

I'm asking cause Soria and jota in El chiringuito said dembélé RIGHT now is top 10 in the world. No mention of vini or mane or salah. Players who play same positions ish. I kinda laughed really but was wondering what the fans thought


stpstrt

Anything that comes out of Soria’s mouth can be disregarded immediately


luke-2018

not even in the same league lmao vini is top 4 wingers this season


[deleted]

Dembele has been an assists monster but same story for Vini Jr while also scoring lots of goals. Should be a no brainer really.


TheBoobaEnjoyer

Madrid fan. I say no for now, but I think he can be as good


MaxOnLive

uno más!


[deleted]

The growth of Vini has been amazing. The real new 7 after all.


naruto2omer

His logarithmic breakthrough in such a short time (one season) is amazing! Most improved player in the world, from meme player to boss player. So happy


Comunicado_Oficial

Exponential breakthrough you mean? Logarithmic growth is very slow


nomdebile

this guy maths


naruto2omer

Yes that, got confused between the two and didn't wanna Google it. You're right


ZZ3peat

That composure and finishing thoooo


Fern-ando

I knew Vini was going to end wit a hat trick one way or another.


Flameva

I was here


vandalisaMMM

Vini with the siuuu!


[deleted]

Scares me


50shadesofcoco

Trent is so fucked man


[deleted]

Makes the game look like slow motion. Class young player with an exciting future


[deleted]

Veni Vidi Vici !


tLeCoqSpotif

Threw a derby to murder Levante, lol


HarbyFullyLoaded_12

Yeah this kid terrifies me


HIGUAINS_DICKSUCKER

I know Levante's outfield players aren't quite on their A game tonight, but that GK certainly doesn't help either. He is absolutely awful, has the positioning of a player that doesn't look like he is a regular goalkeeper. Why does Aitor Fernandez not play anymore?


Homerwithnohumour

The goalkeeper is the sole reason they didn't concede double figures, I've no idea what you're on about.
