So much fucking talent in Neymar. Dare I say that it's higher than Messi / CR but his style isn't that efficient.

He looks like he certainly has more potential but just doesn't achieve it. Still a fantastic player ofc. :thumbsup:

Problem is that he's leaning towards being more like Ronaldinho than CR / Messi in terms of style and efficiency.

Brazil are attempting some nice combination plays with the Neymar-Coutinho-Jesus triangle on the left, but those are the only players contributing.

Honestly this tourney has had a real lack of fluent combination football.

My friend watched him twice live (Neymar) in Barcelona and said that he impressed him more than Messi both times. That amount of tecnique and speed is truly spectacular and easy on the eye. That being said, he (still) isn't as clinical as Messi or CR. Like somebody mentioned already, he's kind of emulating Ronaldinho.

Its like mexico have something against using the overlap runner. Keep shooting when they have much better options

Yeah they fucked up the few decent chances they had so far, by being greedy.

If not for their gk this could have been so much worse for them.

I'm glad Neymar's football career was a success. His secondary talent of acting would've been dire :fp:
