If we're being honest, Vini likes to taunt and that doesn't help

If not excusing it, what exactly is your point then? That Vini's taunting incites extra racism?
Again, I assume this is some sort of misunderstanding but it really reads that way.

Negative. Just calling what I peeped from him in the game against Barca.

Tchoumeni, Camavinga, Bellingham are on the same team as him but aren't being singled out

Show me where I said that

Again, I don't think you meant the above to come across in the way it did but it's hard to argue it didn't come off that way to some extent.
Does Vini's taunting incite more racism than he'd already face regardless just for being a world class black player? Sure, but if he was white this wouldn't happen.
So the point of 'well, he likes to taunt' just doesn't really seem to serve a point. It shouldn't matter even if he was the most annoying ****houser to set foot on a pitch.

tbf he's disappointing for someone with so much talent
he really needs a team and manager around him for guidance cause he should be so much more productive.
and the way he doesn't work hard off the ball does him no favors

Agreed here.

That’s why I want him to go to Barça or City.

To level himself up.

Disappointing for sure but let’s not act like they didn’t beat a few Mexican clubs on their way to the Leagues Cup victory when Messi was fully healthy last year

Mexico down bad ever since that Maxi Rodriguez volley in 06

The country has never recovered

He said I said vini was taunting fans which I never did

Vini taunts opposing players on the field

Yeah that was an error on vtotheinay ’s part but feels more like semantics. In spite of that, it was very clear he was referring to your posts in the discussion that I quoted some parts from in my previous post.

His point wasn’t about taunting, it was the way your posts in that Vini racism discussion came off as bordering on justifying the racism he faces.
I can only speak for myself but I’ve seen nothing else to suggest you would’ve intentionally done such a thing, however many here (myself included) agreed your argument came off that way judging by the replies and the amount of s in that discussion.

I’d rather get back to just footy talk in all honesty since the Vini argument doesn’t need to be relitigated. With an accusation like that though, I figured I’d show the context of where that accusation came from all of a sudden, in case some don’t recall.

And we have away at Newcastle
Hope the squad is prepared for some world class elbows from Guimarães.
Newcastle can be tough if they’re on their game at home

The aerial route is a lost art in the modern game. Catch so many people off guard with it in my Sunday league
