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?

Matt Le Tissier if he had drive/work ethic? The first midfielder to score 100 goals in the Prem and the most accurate penalty taker ever?
Man stayed at Southampton his entire career and wasn’t much of a high work rate player. People say it’s loyalty but I think he just couldn’t be arsed with the change and more pressure and work.
Yep, that Matt Le Tissier. He was unbelievably talented and made the game look easy. But if you ever watched him play he was never a hard worker, didn’t track back and was never in fantastic shape. I really believe he had the talent to be one of Englands best ever players but he was never 1st choice. He even said he didn’t want to move to a bigger club because he didn’t want the hassle
Yeah, Le Tissier had a lot of ability but was incredibly lazy and had no motivation.
At Southampton he could get away with it because his level of skill was far above the normal for the club, had he moved elsewhere he might have been shown up for what he was.
He did pretty well so shown up for what he was I think is a bit harsh but think I know what you mean. No work ethic
Couldn’t get away with nowadays no matter how gifted you are
Yeah I wasn’t sure how to word it, didn’t mean he was shit or anything.
Le Tissier was good, but even with a work ethic I don’t think he would world class in his day.
We’ll never know, He had world class Technique, vision and could score from anywhere, I think he could have been up there with Scholes if he had have had a different attitude/mindset. Still had a great career though
Yes, if you watched Southampton at the time they were pretty much set up so he could walk around the pitch and score bangers
