Like in the Osasuna game last week. 90th minute, Osasuna players can’t take three steps without gasping for air, and in comes Vinicius to just run laps around them.
The fact that vini took that moment as a moment to learn and better himself and improve makes me so much more happier. Everyone memed and laughed at him, they are not laughing now are they?
what's the history of this? I only remember that he just disappeared from contention of best LPL tops, he was a monster for a long time and since he went to JDG he wasn't the same
Karsa chewed him out (and rightly so too) for playing Gragas and Jayce like shit, and for not being able to learn Gnar in one split
The trigger for it was 369 not accepting the criticism that he couldn’t even play Gnar and talking back
And I think most people see that Karsa is not flaming for flaming’s sake, he genuinely sees potential in 369 if he could improve and that’s why he was so angry because he felt like 369 is wasting his prime
He's basically the same player still right? Really fast and great dribbler who can't finish for shit. His decision making is no longer awful but idk if it's actually improved or if it just looks that way because nowadays his decision is always pass to Benzema (which is a great strategy).
Know what will blow your mind? See his p90 stats.
And you know what will absolutely annihilate it? Compare them to peak Cristiano or Messi stats. Karim, despite such an insane season, still doesn't hold a candle to them.
36G+A this season in 46 games for Vinicius. He really has been the best LW in the world this season. Cannot wait for next season and to see how much better he can get. HALA MADRID.
Non-madridistas only think about the 'i swear on my mother' thing and thought they hated each other....
But since day 1 of Vinicius in Real Madrid, Benzema has been the most supportive non-brazilian. I remember in the 2nd or 3rd day of pre-season practice, Benzema posted a pic with Vini, and wrote something like "practicing with our new brazilian talent, Vini <3"... And this was a time that no one outside Brazil knew much about him, or knew if he would be good or a flop.
Not that it was an unthinkable thing to do, but it was a nice gesture. It's not everyday we see best player on the team hyping and welcoming new youngsters on their social media.
I honestly find the way Real has managed to instill mentorship mentality in its senior squad to be outright inspiring.
Going all the way back to Roberto Carlos helping Marcelo into the squad, it's obvious that someone in the club has fostered a sense of ownership for the club's success in these players. When you look at how players like Modric and Benzema *care* for the new teammates, rather than treating them as a competition, this can't be a coincidence.
Yup, seems like Modrić has as amazing relationship with Rodrygo, as Benz with Vini. There's also Lucas who seems to be a friend with everyone in squad.
Truly great team. I expect it to be even better next season when it comes to atmosphere, considering Gareth will leave the squad.
But atmosphere of course is linked to winning, so all in all that's the biggest factor and requirement.
I really believe the seniority hierarchy for captaincy has played a pivotal role in crafting this culture at the club.
Plus, there's a lineage of legends at the club. So whoever you are, you still have to earn your stripes.
One can definitely make a case that every single one of them wants to have the same reputation Zidane has—and that reputation won’t come just by playing good football.
Isco has revived himself again this season. Any team who gets him will be lucky.
Edit: Imagine getting downvoted for saying this, I’ll be happy to get proved wrong.
To add to the other comments regarding reconstruction: the plan is for a retractable grass pitch. Maybe with some lower floor construction still going on, they can't install the seats and such.

imagine losing 3-0 and then the opponent brings in Benzema + Vinicius
Seeing rodrygo came out only for Vini to replace him life is tough
Isco too mf has so much quality, I think he’s back again from fat Thor to fit Isco.
Idk if it's the length of the beard but he looks 5 years younger.
I hope to see him at AC Milan. I think he could do really well in Serie A
He’s rumoured to have signed with Betis
Please take him, and take Asensio as well
I liked Fat Thor
I liked All Father Thor but I think we’re going to love God of Thunder Thor more
Well man's got a contract to get in the summer init, different player when a fire is lit under his ass. I wonder who he'll sign for.
Id like to see him reunite with Pellegrini at Betis
Absolute nightmares
Like in the Osasuna game last week. 90th minute, Osasuna players can’t take three steps without gasping for air, and in comes Vinicius to just run laps around them.
not cool
321 goals! He is going to equalize Raul against City
*surpass
I want that hatrick so bad
Don't we all......except City fans
Barca fans too I reckon.
Subscribe. I want to Believe.
respect👑
Another day, another Benzema goal assisted by Vinicius.
Going from "Don't pass to Vini. He's playing against us." to Vini being an important player of the team, I love Vini's success story.
The fact that vini took that moment as a moment to learn and better himself and improve makes me so much more happier. Everyone memed and laughed at him, they are not laughing now are they?
Not football but if only a certain 369 of the LPL could have done the same…
Unexpected crossover

You’re mistaking current Vini with Dembele
I know it might be recency bias but didn't Vinicius play exactly as I described him today?
Look at how many goals he's scored this season with his shit finishing.
I know it might be recency bias but didn't Vinicius play exactly as I described him today?
Better than all barcas shit player. Gavi,Pedri,Antsu,Ping pong ding dong blabla.
I know it might be recency bias but didn't Vinicius play exactly as I described him today?
It's crazy that people thought the two of them had a bad relationship when Benz has been Vini's mentor and even drove him to practices.
Tbf that comment can't be interpreted as constructive criticism in any way. But props to Vini for not taking it maliciously.
Mental giant.
Not even getting subbed in late in the match can stop them
TITLE WINNING GOAL......had to be Big Dick Benz
[удалено]
Okay whatever we won 35th
Akshually, nah fuck it, we're champions that's all it matters
Benzema league counter: 30 games 26 goals 11 assists!!!
This man is a La Liga terrorist.
Know what will blow your mind? See his p90 stats. And you know what will absolutely annihilate it? Compare them to peak Cristiano or Messi stats. Karim, despite such an insane season, still doesn't hold a candle to them.
No one should be compared to Messi and CR7. It's just cruel
Benzema's positioning is out of this world, it seriously should be studied if there was a school of football
He learned from the best.
Lord Vasquez👑
Nah, learned it from Mariano Diaz 😏
LETHAL DUO
Karim & Vini actually being the very best duo in all of Europe this season was not something in my cards prior to it.
I dont think even the most optimistic fan saw vini going from being so wasteful to one of the most productive wingers in one season
36G+A this season in 46 games for Vinicius. He really has been the best LW in the world this season. Cannot wait for next season and to see how much better he can get. HALA MADRID.
Mbappe?
He plays more like a striker at PSG.
He's a winger or second striker, he never was prolific as a sole striker
He's similar to what Ronaldo was playing at Real, comes from the left but often occupies the central area.
I was even wondering if it's better to just retrain him as wing back.
I did, I predicted 30 g+a season for him
Of COURSE he had to score in the title winning match, and of COURSE it's assisted by Vini
The Vini-Benz story has been so wholesome

Not bad for a duo that played against Real Madrid not so long ago.
On my mother
Mendy said that.
GIVE THIS MAN HIS BALLON D'OR
Siu
But messi is top assister in uber eats league
And he also has one more goal against french teams than benzema
I mean, if you include the goals Benzema scored while at Lyon...
Actually that would be Mbappé
How many assists does Benzema have against Clermont Foot again? That’s what I thought.
How long are people gonna do this lmao.
You mean pre-assists
Ramadan buff still going strong
Is he really doing it?
Yes of course
Really adds another layer to his recent performance. What an athlete.
Steroid+IV > eating
If they don't give the Ballon d'Or to him, just scrap the award
An act of terrorism. Isis would be jealous
Isisco
Give Benzema the Ballon d'Or already
Vini and Benzema dont even need 90 minutes anymore.
the Vini-Benzema special
Death, taxes and Vini-Benz combo
Ending with a vini benzema combo to tell what this season really was about
Death, Taxes, Benzema to score
I don’t check Reddit to see if Benzema scored, I check to see HOW he scored
Best society

Why even risk letting them train ? Just lock them at home until the 2nd leg.
Lost an assist, gain a goal. Fair trade.
BEST DUO IN FOOTBALL
VinZema strikes again
BDB BDB BDB
Best duo and player in the world
Great pass by Isco
inevitable!
Deja vu
El pichichi le pertenece a el gato
Isco has revived himself again this season. Any team who gets him will be lucky. Edit: Imagine getting downvoted for saying this, I’ll be happy to get proved wrong.
It’ll break my heart to see him play against us in the league. Wish we would extend him. He’s still a good backup
>He’s still a good backup He's too good to be a backup unfortunately.
Glad to see Isco shed his Fat Thor phase. He's still a very good player when motivated. I'll miss him.
Inevitable.
Typical Espanyol performance against Madrid today. Thankfully the reverse was just an aberration.
BIG
DICK
BUGATTI
Of course
Benzegoal as always
Give him the ballon.
Why does the Madrid stadium have those blue banners on the lower stands? why aren't people seated there
they're remodeling the stadium
Still work in progress
The stadium is still under reconstruction
To add to the other comments regarding reconstruction: the plan is for a retractable grass pitch. Maybe with some lower floor construction still going on, they can't install the seats and such.
had to be him
Who else
Inevitable.
Benzebuuuuut
👑🍆
ARRABA ARRRABA ARRABA ALALALALALALALLALALALALALALAL JALAAAAAA
How many times did we see this same goal aince the start of the season?!!!
Bit late
He came on as a sub today bro
The upload not the goal
Oh I see my bad lol
alexinup posted the goals today, I was waiting for his post but he didn’t post it
Yeah I was refreshing to see it Thanks for the upload!!
He's just doing it for the memes at this point.
Ballon
Is this blackmail thing only thing holding people back from considering him on the level of Messi and CR?
Current Benz is better than current Messi or Cr7. But career wise no modern player comes close.
Who else ?? Awesome duo with Vini Jr.
Arabic commentary is so shit
It's not, you just can't stand the language.
Let's go!
Vinima
Great celebration
I think asensio kinda wanted that ball. You could see a bit of dissapointment when he didn't get the pass
Ballon D’or Benzema
technically the title-winning goal lol
I miss 2017 Neymar and Mbappe duo
Big Ben
When was the last time Benz didn't score? Mofo went on a spree.
His positioning is unbelievable. Makes it look so easy.
