The official Felipe Anderson appreciation thread

[Katy Perry]

Has been the best player in the Serie A so far, and he's the main reason Lazio is sitting at 3rd place. He just literally single handedly destroyed Inter, Sampdoria, Lazio in crucial 6pointers matches for the 3rd place with 4 goals and 3 assists and has been in red hot form all season.

Will usurp Neymar's starting place and number 10 shirt by the start of Copa America.

[RealGunner]

Won't have to change his kit colours next season at the Etihad - BC

[Katy Perry]

Paulo Henrique Ganso (teammate Neymar Santos) "Neymar has filled us with emotions. But between the cracks, without doubt, Felipe Anderson is better than Neymar."

Dani Alves (teammate Neymar WC 2014) "Felipe Anderson is impressive, he does wonders. What he does in the last metres, Neymar couldn't do as often."

Marcos Arouca da Silva (teammate of both Neymar and Felipe Anderson at Santos) "Felipe Anderson is the best player I have seen in my life"

Muricy Ramalho (coach of both Neymar and Felipe Anderson at Santos) "I've seen Neymar at top of his game, but Felipe Anderson is the better player"

[dronte]

Actually it was Djordjevic who carried Lazio in the first 10 matches or so, then this guy came to surface

Amazing players anyways, both of them.

[Robespierre]

He was a massive flop last year, now he a massive difference maker in Serie A , atm he is the player in the best moment. I need of time to rate him better , but he looks like a special player  

Anyway , this testifies the fact that even the most talented South American players may need of time so as adapt in Serie A, credit to Lazio because they had the patience to do it.

[zigra]

5 great games in a row and he's the leagues best player this season?
Before that he was merely used as a sub.

However he does look like a big talent.

[Ganso]

he was utter garbage at Santos lol he had to play as a fb sometimes to get some minutes.

Any source?

[Chumlum]

His highlight reel, anyway, is phenomenal. Really enjoying the steady stream of Vines this guy is responsible for ...

(I don't mean that as sarcasm or faint praise, I just haven't seen any of the recent full matches where he's been bossing things, so I can't say for sure.)

I mean ATM  he is the best moment --- but for moment I mean " this last month"

my english

Basically he was the best Serie A player in last month . This.
But surely he is not greatest player in Serie A.

[zigra]

Oh no problem, I understood what you meant.
It was Katy Perry who said "Has been the best player in the Serie A so far" - should've quoted that I guess.

[Hapless_Hans]

Are these quotes made up lol?

If so, I like it!!

[BarrileteCosmico]

Yes I think it's a parody of Harmonica's post on the Messi vs Maradona thread

[Katy Perry]

Tough week for Felipe Anderson. He's injured for one month and his dad has just been arrested for multiple homicide.

[zigra]

Push.
Guy is crazy. Just realised that he has more than 70 dribbles in about 1000 minutes this season

Watched him a couple of times since this thread was created and he's really awesome.

[Robespierre]

I think he would be more overhyped if he played with one of 3 Italian Giants.
Best Serie A player atm  - yes Katy Perry was right - , but he plays just with Lazio

It is amazing not just for the quality and  offensive incidence , but also for his work rate   This his aspect is underrated.  Great  disposition to sacrifice , defending, and  great tactical sense ...

Pioli is making an amazing job on him , he has nothing to do with the player of last year .

[McAgger]

Just rekt Torino ridin solo

His first goal was Messi-esque

What a player

[Curtinho]

He is only 21 (well, almost 22) and doing the things that he's doing. He could be really special.

[Katy Perry]

He's been really impressive. The way he toys with defenses and single-handedly wins games on his own reminds me of Ronaldo with Inter.

Destined to Chelsea/Bayern/Barca/Madrid

[salmano9]

Pogba is the best in Serie A this season. No doubt.

[Ganso]

Felipe Anderson lighting up serie a wtf am i watching

[Mr Nick09]

Growth maybe, but he looks like he knows exactly what he is doing ad it's no fluke. You wanna see if he can be consistent about it but he looks great imo.

Interesting for the right side of brazil to balance out Neymar at least, if he can keep up. Lucas Moura still plays with his head down...

[Robespierre]

So far as I appreciate Felipe Anderson , that Ronaldo was an alien ffs .
Othwewise Lazio woud be first in this Serie A now

Pogba is the best in Serie A this season. No doubt.

Pogba
Minutes: 2799
Gol: 9 (7 in serie A)
Assist:6

Felipe Anderson
Minuti giocati: 1389
Gol: 9 (8 in Serie A)
Assist: 8

[Curtinho]

If Anderson can hold form it would be really interesting to see Brazil playing with Coutinho - Neymar - Anderson up front with Neymar as a CF.

[elitedam]

To be fair to Pogba, they play different roles, don't they?

Anyways, seriously:
