I said it too. Did you notice how thiago alcantaras arms were much bigger than usual? All steroid use.

I wonder why people are claiming that he must have done PED's. It's not like he didn't had really low body fat percentage beforehand as a professional athlete and he had also the necessary time and access to the best possible training facilities and advisers during the five months. I am not saying that there isn't the chance of him doing (legal) PED's but without any proof - apart from a body transformation - it's just an unfounded accusation imo

Mate in December 2019, ( before quarantine ) he was just a skinny guy. When the matches restarted in March, he was looking like a jacked bodybuilder. Stop being biased towards him because you are german and you are overprotective of german players. There is NO WAY possible you can go from a skinny rat to a juiced up looking bodybuilder in 3-4 months. And you gotta remember he is a footballer where they are required to run many miles per week which is detrimental to muscle mass as calories are constantly being burned. Even a gym noob wouldnt be able to add on so much mass in that small time frame even though gym noobs can see the most growth in their apppearance in the first 3-4 months of training as they have not done it before.

Also you need any proof? Go look at goretzkas facial appearance before and after lockdown. Before lockdown the crown area of his hair was full and his hairline was in good condition. After lockdown, his hairline started to recede and his crown area started thinning. Also, he aged facially he looked 4 years older when he came out of lockdown and his teeth got worse now they look yellow and crooked lmao. Those are obvious signs of juicing. Doesnt take a scientist to see it.

Well "mate", I just gave my opinion. I respect yours as well, even though I think it's pulled out of thin air. They played a whole champions league knockout stage with regular doping controls. So are you saying that he used a new doping method which is not yet traceable? Obviously I'm following German players more closely, if you want to call it bias then whatever.

Ever heard of bribery? Lmao if you really think top level athletes that are paid thousands arent doping then im sorry but youre deluded. Those testings are easily avoidable by bribes because the whole system is corrupt. It happens in every sport you can think of. Boxing, mma, swimming, rugby etc have all doped superstars but they get to avoid cheating by paying off authorities that turn a blind eye for a quick buck.
