    To be fair to Neymar, the standard set by Ronaldo and Messi in terms of statistical output hurt the perception of him. Many of the Brazilian greats that we have seen including Ronaldinho only had a peak of 2-3 years and even fewer that scored 25+ goals in a season multiple times.

      Nostalgia plays a huge role in how we view legends of past. All of them were at some point, the best players in the world and Neymar wasn't because he happened to play in the same generation as Messi and Ronaldo. And Ronaldinho and R9 would also have never been the best if they played in the same era as Messi and CR7.

    Has Simon for once considered that the idea to involve his family in his career might have been Neymar's own? When you grow up in a country where you have zero ability to make a living, especially the neighborhood where Neymar grew up, you will do everything that you possibly can to bring your family along when you make it out.
    Last I checked Neymar depended on his family to get to where he is today. Or does Simon think that Neymar put himself in a football Academy and made the trips, spend the last bit of money, and made all the sacrifices to help him realize his dreams?
    It's just sad to see the smug arrogance of a guy like Simon passing his moral code along to the unwashed plebs.

    He has done his best and he can be proud of his achievements! If there were no Ronaldo and Messi, he would have won more accolades.

    Ronaldinho, R9 and Kaka at a certain point in time have been considered "the best player in the world". Neymar was supposed to be the next "big thing" from Brazil yet there hasn't been a time where he is widely regarded as " the best player in the world". Its been a few years since the peak of Messi and CR7 but even with their powers waning he didn't take the chance.
    Yes he has scored a lot of goals for Brazil, but so has Giroud for France.
    For me he has never quite reached the level those former players mentioned have and I don't think playing in a League that is widely considered behind the PL, La Liga, Serie A and maybe potentially Bundesliga helps his cause.

      Neymar has had a better career than any of those and had to carry much worse Brazil sides. Also, Messi was still scoring a goal per game the season before last, so he hasn't had a few years to be the best player in the world at all. He's easily been the third best player of the last 15 years. If Ronaldinho had played alongside peak Messi he wouldn't have been the best player in the world either.
      Neymar has 100 more goals than Ronaldinho and more than twice as many in the CL. Ronaldinho played in a Brazil side with R9, Rivaldo, Cafu, Roberto Carlos, Lucio, Juninho etc.
      Neymar has 50% more goals for his country than Giroud, playing deeper and in a harder qualifying section. Kaka shouldn't even be in this conversation, Neymar is much better than Kaka ever was.

    neymar was a special talent and number two pure natural talent behind messi - what he was doing at santos, winning copa libertadores - first for santos since pele, puskas award, skills, dribbling, statistical output. Ppl thought he wouldn’t survive in europe but from 2014-2017 he was number 3 highly regarded by many. his way of playing is beautiful and inspired a generation to dribble and do skills like him. It’s sad because he could’ve done so much more but injuries, distractions, personal problems he may have been facing hindered his career but ability and talent wise he’s easily top 5 of this generation. Neymar in his prime is the definition of Joga bonito and it’s clear he was born for football, in his prime at barca he made it look easy but he could’ve done more I think
 however he’s overhated and over scrutinised. Every player makes mistakes, Ronaldo has missed open goals, messi has as well, messi has had the ball taken off him, Ronaldo has messed up a skill but with Neymar they only mention the mistakes or the times he lost the ball or didn’t track back. ppl won’t realise but when he retires they will miss players like him greatly who make football look like a dance.

    Talking about neymar his style of play sometimes reel in the feelings of hostile from his opponents.. I think he needs to be less selfish & make a one two pass & a quick cross into the box like vinicious did in the last two matches...if he holds the ball too long the opponents will really set to injure him & physically neymar is not strong..

    Listening to these people talk about Messi & then talk about Neymar shows how clueless they can be. Messi has an ego, Messi's family got selfish requests & many other issues... Messi is often treated like a saint or something when he had a lot of controversies(like racism which is big in Argentina). These have labelled certain players as x & others as y, then after doing so they argue why or why not.

    Have you forgotten Messi was facing 21 months in prison and his father 15 months in prison for tax fraud and both found guilty of defrauding Spain and using Belize and Uruguay to conceal earnings from image rights. Messi in court said that he
    trusted HIS FATHER with his finances and knew nothing about the tax issues that led to fraud charges against him in Spain despite there being enough evidence to believe that Messi knew about and consented to the creation of a corporate structure to lower his Spanish tax burden on income from Danone SA, Adidas AG, PepsiCo Inc. and other companies.
