Who is the biggest “what if” player of all time? What I mean by this is a player who could’ve had a dramatically different or better career if he had chose a different option.
One of my picks is Neymar. What if he stayed at Barcelona?
Christian Ceballos if he never got injured
James Rodriguez if he didn’t go to rma
Diego Maradona if he didn’t have an alcohol addiction
Bojan if he didn’t have anxiety and such high expectations
Micheal Owen if he never got injured
What if Neymar never left barca What if Hazard stayed at Chelsea
A fit nesta
Ronaldo without injuries
Adriano without mental breakdown
Pato without injuries
Balotelli if he had a functioning brain
Gazza
Pogba and Neymar
Van basten. Retired at 28 (unjuries). Bro got 3 ballon dors, 2 champions league.
became the top scorer nine times (playing for different clubs) 377 games 277 goals 82 assists He would become better than anyone, if not injuries
Maradona but sober. Shortest but brightest prime OAT.
Here’s some I haven’t seen commented yet/as much:
Reus, Oscar, Gabri Veiga (he could still come back), Götze, Badstüber - and, even though he’s been commented a bit, Adriano
MICHU if he’s not injured
Alex de Souza, more goals than R9 and more assist than Cruyff as a Midfielder. Would’ve had a better career if he just shut his mouth when it came to the government, he talked to bad about it and they tried everything to stop him.
Van Basten without injuries
what if coutinho never joined barca ?
what if erling haaland never left dortmund ?
Me if I was good
What if Ronaldo signed for Man City instead of Man Utd the second time round and Haaland never made it to City?
