  1. He is at the table. What are you talking about dude. Just because he “didn’t win the world cup”. Dudes Maldini didn’t win a world cup and he’s at the head of the table. And he did play the final. Watch your mouth bro. And he’s not the “prototype”. There were already attacking fullbacks already, Like Roberto Carlos. What makes Marcelo special is how expressive and creative he was. That’s what separates him from everyone else. And Roberto Carlos has said that he is better the him and does things that he couldn’t even do and has said that he is his successor. So again for the conversation, he is at the table. Know your ball knowledge and do better research

  2. Saying Marcelo is one of the greatest left-backs of all time isn't a stretch. Even though he lacked major international success and accolades, Marcelo at Real Madrid was simply entertaining to watch. His dribbling, creativity, and attacking flair made him more than just a defender—he was a playmaker from the back. With five Champions League titles and countless unforgettable moments, his impact on football is undeniable.

  3. I never played football growing up. When Real Madrid came to the US for preseason International Champions Cup, I fell in love with Marcelo, Real Madrid, and football. Thank you Marcelo⚜

  4. the former Real Madrid and Brazil left back, announced his retirement on Thursday at the age of 36.

    It is highly recommended and a MUST for Real Madrid management, board of directors, coaching staff, people working in their club who are involved on the transfer-market to permanently sell who are currently out on loan to play for another football club, do not offer a loan with buy back clause or with a number or percentage rights, recall or return players that are currently on-loan by another football club to play for Real Madrid, ageing ((28) years old and above), inconsistent (due to limited playing time, never have played and always on the bench, poor defensively, not performing well) regardless of age, injury prone, those who are not comfortable playing in different position, that MUST happen on or before July 2029. We are referring to Modric, Vasquez, Daniel Carvajal Ramos "Dani Carvajal", Courtois, Alaba, Rudiger, Mendy, Daniel Ceballos FernĂĄndez "Dani Ceballos", JesĂșs Vallejo LĂĄzaro "Jesus Vallejo", Francisco JosĂ© GarcĂ­a Torres "Fran Garcia", Diaz, Reinier Jesus Carvalho "Reinier", & Guler.

    Once they get sold these are the players should be sign based on their positions on or before July 2027.

    Right Back: Josh Acheampong

    Left Back: Jorrel Hato, Álvaro Fernåndez Carreras

    Centre Back: William Alain André Gabriel Saliba, Dean Donny Huijsen Wijsmuller

    Centre or Attacking Midfield: Tijjani Martinus Jan Reijnders

    Lastly Real Madrid must never offer a contract to these players for a RIGHT BACK position, that are inconsistent regardless of age, poor defensively, has disadvantage of height and strength (lacks muscles), proven already that unable to stop wingers/strikers in different leagues, injury-prone, has beyond 60 million euro's transfer-market value, and ageing 27 years old and above, and turning 27 years old and above on year 2027. We are referring to Darmian, Walker, Trippier, Di Lorenzo, Cancelo, Kimmich, Dumfries, Calabria, White, Mazraoui, Ryerson, Wan-Bissaka, Molina, Alexander-Arnold, Hakimi, Tomiyasu, Royal, Dalot, Porro, James, Boey, Frimpong, Couto, T. Carvalho Santos, Livramento, Rensch, Terracciano, Gusto, Bradley, Sanchez, Fresneda, Lewis, Gray, & Lima.

  5. Who came up with this agenda that he has to win a world cup in order to reach legendary or goat status as one of the best left backs of all time? He is definitely the best left back of the last 15 years and maybe of all times. I hate that you guys in general mention world cups in order to show how great a player is. Thousands of players throughout the years have won world cups, but apart from that Real Madrid team, I don’t think you can name me players that have won 5 champions leagues while playing as a starter in most games, 3 peating the champions league as well. Stop with this agenda and give him his well deserved merits.

  6. I'm brazilian and believe me, the past few months was not that good for Marcelo's fans… if you know what has been happening in Fluminense's headquarters (Marcelo's last club) you might understand.
    Either way, he is one of the best players we've ever seen to play in both the Seleção and Real, best wishes to you Marcelo, and good retirement 🙌
