If Neymar was born 10 years later, he would definitely be the Balon d’Or winner.
To play in an era dominated by Leo and Cris, it’s just too tough to match the pair.
Same with Suarez
Nah..neymar didn't have that work ethic
If there were no cr7 and messi..there are many other players who would have had more chances...AND HAD MORE WORK ETHIC than neymar
@@gunningyoudown3466 stop talking through your ass. He is still far better than half shining young stars in the world.
@@gunningyoudown3466 if you dont have work ethic you cant play for 15 years at this level, neymar is the 3rd best of this generation and if it wasnt for injuries he would be 2nd
@@gunningyoudown3466 ronaldinho didn't have the work ethic too yet he got a ballon d'or 🤷🏻♂
His Puskas award goal for Santos was just insane. They went on to lose the game against Flamengo (where Ronaldinho was playing). It was like a passing of the torch. The dusk of a legend in Ronaldinho, barely beating the dawn of another in Neymar. Amazing
Maybe the greatest match of all time
Btw it’s robbed messi goal against Real Madrid in ucl semi final >>>>
@@arashi9678pessi fan everywhere😂😂
Crazy ronaldinho and R9 the Rolando both played against a young neymar and even tho past there prime especially Ronald.. they both scored the goals to beat a young neymar Santos.. Ronald was about 30kg overweight with a destroyed knee but was still banging in goals.. Ronaldo at psv and Barcelona was the best striker IV ever seen.. and his first season at inter Milan he was different class.. but after that knee injury he was never the same.. but was still one of the best strikers in the world.. 2002 winning the world cup.. and at Madrid over weight bad knee.. he was still banging in goals.. scoring hatrick against man unt .. if Ronaldo never got his knee destroyed he would have been the best player in history.. in his prime he was unstoppable.. and even past his prime fat was still scoring goals❤ what a talent
@@nareshkumar-0007Messi*
Europeans have no idea but Neymar 2010 to 2012 was like god on earth here on Brazil, everyone was going to watch him, even if was to score against our club.
wdym europeans have no idea literally everyone here knew his name since 2010, before he had even kicked a ball in europe😭
@@user-ji8ik9vq2k Trust me, you can know how good Neymar is but you'll never know HOW GOOD Neymar is. It's a cultural thing.
@@user-ji8ik9vq2k He's talking about Neymar's status in Brazil
in brasil any pille of trash that can do some shity dribbles is a god, the problemes come when he comes to play whit the real men....then he sees is is not that good so he stars to run from the fights, start to drink get fat and just becomes another...WHAT IF...
@@Ghostsisejust be quiet… Neymar always been to top 10 best players in the world. What have you done?
At that time in Brazil Neymar was an icon to every kid, he was a young charismatic man who loved football and played like art, he was people like us people, he was hope. Everyone rocked a mohawk and dreamed to be like him, everyone gathered around this figure someway. It was a pleasure to grow up watching him play in Brazil, that were the best days of my life
tbh at that time Neymar was more of a leading figure them the president
and well thats it no more young new player like him til now. No not even vini
@@sherock4761 Vini isn’t close, most of the young Brazilians now are overhyped because social media
Fr. When I was a kid all the boys in my class would be using that mohawk and we were feeling ourselves lol. Everyone was a fan of Neymar even those that cheered for the rival clubs, myself included.
Every kid wanted to have his mohawk hahaha
The only things to wreck Neymar’s career was:
1. playing in the prime years of Messi and Ronaldo
2. Leaving Barcelona
3. Getting injured so often
I think it’s so weird that Neymar has actually been at PSG longer than he was at Barca (2013-2017 Vs. 2017-2023) like everything good about Neymar and how happy he was, happened during those 3.5 years he was at Barcelona.
I think he should’ve stayed at Barcelona way longer- not only did he not get injured as hard in La Liga, but he clearly would’ve taken a way bigger role than Messi by now. I mean I’ll always respect Neymar and see him as one of the best to ever do it, but that decision probably costed his career- I feel like he could kinda do what ever kind of dribbling he wanted in La Liga, but no one wanted him to have that Brazilian flair in France- aka they basically wanted to snap his right ankle as often as possible.
Neymar only stayed at Barca for 4 seasons but I still see him as a legend of the club.
@Marvin agreed and that party and other stuff increased when he moved to PSG
4 - his habit of getting injured eveytime his sister birthday
Neymar so unlucky he can’t even be the best player born on his birthday. Ronaldo has the same birthday
well apparently, its his father the one who convinced him to move to psg. last week suarez told the media about his move and how both suarez and messi tried asking him to stay. for me, his movement is the biggest turn. ney was one of my most fav player, then till now, but, i won't deny how hard he's downgraded. if only, he stay at barcelona, everything might be different. tho deep down, i also don't know what he thought actually back then, but, yeah, maybe it's all written in his life by God. lol. and that's how i can accept whatever things that happened on him rn hahaha
bruh
The fact he is considered a flop with a champions league trophy winning a treble in a season he was so vital..being in the top 3 balloon d or ranking...etc is a testament to his potential and what he could have achieved.
he still is only 30. perhaps he can make insane gains physically like Benzema and have a season for the gods
@@lmaomoofeq2505unfortunately he doesn't have the same drive
@@anastpro1558 even Benzema didnt
@@lmaomoofeq2505 Problem isn't about having lack of drive, its just that whenever he seem to hit form, he always gets injured.
His potential was "greatest player of all time" so the fact that he capped out at "one of the best in the world when healthy" feels like a disappointment
Dude is a legend .Growing up in India where cricket is a religion , I found him and instantly fell in love with the way he played and I fell in love with the game too. He is the reason I like watching football . HIS IMPACT ON THE GAME IS MORE THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK.
his skills and hairstyles back then was so iconic.
Come and visit the Northeast india football is more than a game it's our life. We really don't know what Cricket is
@@minetlav5110 yeah he is talking a out north india
I didn't like to watch football when i was a kid until i see him winning the olimpics gold, so i started to watch him in barcelona and became a football lover. YES HIS IMPACT IS GIANT
The man who made me love football. I watched so many players but no one ever moved me like him. Still remember watching those bad quality Brazilian league games just to watch him play
And than he came to europe.. where is real football played.. and is falling 70% of the time.. here football is not only dancing with the ball
@@mihakovac4604 failed how? he played 123 games for Barcelona and scored 68 times; that is better than 1 in 2 (the threshold for a world class goal scorer)

@@mihakovac4604Real football? Brazilian league only lose to premier league and la liga in my opnion the other leagues are dominated by 1~3 teams, of course it has some bad games but if the brazilian football was bad they would not reveal so many talents and have 5 world cups
@@mihakovac4604 so you gonna tell me that the slovanian league is better?
That Santos team was amazing. I went to my Brazilian friend's house(he is a Flamengo supporter) to watch Santos play that season every match. We both fell in love with that squad. Neymar was so damn good. Making veteran defenders plead with the ref to tell him to stop lol.
thanks for commenting
No matter if the world praises Leo and Cristiano, for me, Its always going to be Neymar... Every single time that I hear about the things he's accomplished, I am Blown away. He deserves more.
Fact.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agree
yes i too have a -ve iq :(
Messi, Suarez and Neymar was the best front three to ever play the beautiful game
Well for me it was rijkarrad gullit and van basten 😊
@@FIFAStreet. I wish I'd seen those three play together😍
Del Sol, Di Stefano and Puskas
Ronaldinho etoo and messi
@@victoriap1561 If prime Ronaldinho and prime Messi would've existed at the same time, yes. But When Leo started to reach is full potential, Ronaldinho lost his passion to give his 100%. So it's Messi, Suarez und Neymar vor me. Because all three togther had good form and played well together. Pep Barca was even stronger, but they scored more as a team, Xavi an Iniesta provided the assists and Messi's 50+ goals dwarved Alexis Sanchez and David Villa, even if they where also great. That was more of a Messi-Show in 2012.
2010 Neymar's Santos was just amazing. As a fan I attended every home match. To this day I can't believe what him and Ganso did that year. It was magic!
Neymar still captured the hearts of many people, the Prince who never became a King yet recognized and praised by many!
Neymar is one of the greatest, people just hate he does tricks and plays that no one else does, Neymar and Messi are the best players of this generation. The nicest to watch that’s for sure.
No what people dislike about Neymar is the personality. His ego dwarfs that of even Cristiano Ronaldo. However Cristiano was dedicated to looking after himself and Neymar wasn't. Incredible talent who achieved so much, yet could of achieved so much more had he not been more interested in fame and money.
This was the Neymar I fell in love with. Him with the OG hypervenom’s was a scary site. He was just a different beast. His father screwed up his career.
how come? moving to paris was his father's suggestion? still even then he could've declined..... his career is still glorious & memorable though he never became the messi/ronaldo caliber player everyone expected of him, his career is not a screwup
.
@@GOD-zt6sf not just his father suggestion, but probably a pressure of his whole family and friends (his best child friends live with him).
Suarez said recently that he has a toxic circle around him
@@GOD-zt6sf it's normal in Brazil, wonderkids of football never become real adults, their families are always controlling their moves and make them above the Wing forever. Most of them are forever teenagers
@@brunobueno6833 I can understand how peers & family can influence you into making some abrasive decision but irrespective of how toxic his circle might be in reality, ultimately it's his choice to keep them around him & it's fairly obvious neymar do care a lot & likes company of his friends/family more so than he's concerned about a legacy which he already has just not what people thought his potential was......
@@GOD-zt6sf kind frustrating though, he's will always be my childish hero. Seen him play was the only good moment in my week that time of Santos
Imagine if he never left Barcelona or get injured. What he could’ve become by now sends shivers down my spine. He could’ve been the next one to win consecutive Ballon d’Ors after the Messi and Ronaldo era, even though he aged. People hated on Neymar so much we all seemed to forget just how good of a footballer he is. There is no wonderkid to ever be as good and hyped as Neymar. Fans expected and he delivered.
The favelas will never forget Neymar. A football icon.
He's a gift from the football gods!
Barcelona got 8-2 obliterated without Neymar. Impossible to not get injured when you are hunted by every scum of the planet: discrimination, jealousy, corruption, etc.
Is not about injuries..He wasn't serious with his career.. partying and enjoying too much fame..
@@isaacoppongampofo9247 europe is racist and corrupt and not worth it, he's the highest paid athlete in the planet and your opinion is irrelevant
Neymar is a genius , the problem was never in the beginning of his career but what happened after he decided to join PSG because of money & his attitude , that’s why most of us think he is a disappointment ! He’s still one of my favorites but maan I was expecting waay more
well apparently, its his father the one who convinced him to move to psg. last week suarez told the media about his move and how both suarez and messi tried asking him to stay. and yeah, i agree with you. his movement is the biggest turn. ney was one of my most fav player, then till now, but, i won't deny how hard he's downgraded. if only, he stay at barcelona, everything might be different. tho deep down, i also don't know what he thought actually back then, but, yeah, maybe it's all written in his life by God. lol. and that's how i can accept whatever things that happened on him rn hahaha
Has nothing to do with joining PSG. Dude is a way better player than he was at Barcelona but he rarely ever plays more than half a season due to injuries.
@@achocoblues8678 PSG are just a bad team overall and poorly run. Neymar's issues are injuries in the middle of the season and how psg can't do jack shit. It's nothing to do with work ethic or attitude. Sure, you can question how he has handled himself but he's still good enough to win the ballondor if he stayed fit those 7 years and psg won ucl and brazil won trophies (they kinda did).
you don't know him lil bro stop talking about "money and his attitude" like you've ever been around him
Stop the cap what did Barcelona do without Neymar nothing that’s what😂😂😂 dude left to try a new challenge messi even followed him
Before PSG and Barcelona, every club in Europe including West Ham wanted Neymar because he was that good. Even the great Ronaldinho has gave his blessings to Neymar during their time at the Brazilian League. Barcelona came calling and Neymar at one point was the 3rd best player in the world and played a key role for Barcelona in their treble winning season and the great comeback against PSG in 2017. Yes his time at PSG is at best mixed but he finished 3rd again in the Ballon D'or rankings in 2017. Neymar deserves respect for his career.
When I was a kid I always believed Neymar was the 3rd best player in the world. It's a shame he hasn't won a ballon d'or but he definitely could get one if he joins another club and performs well
West Ham almost had him in 2010
My idol growing up. Watching him at Santos just taking the absolute piss out of the other professionals was incredible. Learnt so many skills etc from him and would use them every day when I practiced. Unfortunately as I got scouted by Bournemouth I got injured and that was the end for my trials. Nice while it lasted though ❤
I remember the Santos Neymar days's, I always knew he was gonna be a big star, he was exciting to watch!
It’s a shame he didn’t reach full potential
I will always remember Neymar as unfulfilled potential. He could've been one of the greatest of all time.
First saw him in club world cup 2011 and knew immediately that there was a strong PR behind him to increase his market value. There was no chance he would ever be an all time great. His game is simply not a sustainable one.
@Sagar Ranjan Exactly. He was a victim of his own hype. Neymar had too many distractions which prevented him from fulfilling his potential.
@@sagarranjan4585 man, Santos played against the greatest team in the history of Barcelona.
nobody, absolutely nobody was as overwhelming in the beginning of his career as Neymar in South America, literally nobody, maybe Ronaldo Fenômeno and that's it. But, for comparison purposes, although Ronaldo Fenomeno won the Ballon d'Or at the age of 20, he didn't compete against Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo living at the height of his career.
Neymar was ridiculously brilliant, not only were there a lot of goals (136 in 3 years) but the goals were the epitome of plasticity. Rivaldo and Romário also had a brilliant start to their careers in Brazil, but did not win the Ballon d'Or early in their careers.
@@sagarranjan4585 wtf are u on. It was the best Barcelona of all time vs a brazilian team squad with Neymar. He couldn't do anything
@@The12345nikolas haha so R9 didn't have to compete against the likes of Zidane, Batistuta, Baggio, Totti, Del Piero, Luis Figo, Henry, Bergkamp, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Ibrahimovic?...he even caught the tale end of Maradona...I would say that ALL of these guys I've listed had better careers than neymar.
Neymar and Griezmann deserve a lot ❤ both are unique types of players. One is a dribbling and skill king 👑 and the other is a all rounder maestro. If these two were not in Messi and Ronaldo generation then they both would have been the main rivals. Honestly both deserve at least a ballon d'ors each.
Griezi deserved 16,18 if it was for individual only. Anyway it's okk Griezi lost all 2 finals but 18 he definetely deserved it.
Griezmann and Angel Di Maria are very underrated 😢.
That Real Madrid 05/06 youth squad that Neymar was registered in, Carvajal, Koke, Pablo Sarabia and Fran Sol just casually chilling there.
that isn't Atleti's Koke though.
Amazing video, congratulations! Maybe one about the story of Ganso would be interesting in the future😁
Hey can you make a video the crazy story of Meazza, How Buffon became juventus greatest ever player, how Kante took the world by storm,how Van der sar became netherlands greatest goalkeeper, how Manchester United had to call Paul scholes out of retirement, how Lewandowski became the most dangerous striker ever, how Zola became a chelsea legend, the rise and fall of Mario gomez, how philip Lahm never got a red card and how Morata never realized his potential, how Matt LeTissier is the finest midfielder ever, how Alan shearer dominated football and finally How Raul scored 300+ goals for Reall madrid

what an amazing baller
Since I started to watch this guy's career I've been in love with him and he's my GOAT.. unlucky with whatever's happening to him... I will still support this man 🇧🇷🥲
GOAT? hahahahaha May be this one 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
What a loser !!
People like you have screwed over the meaning of GOAT
Thank you so much for making these videos, I'm sure I speak for all, we really enjoy them!
Man I have to say this about you, the way you tell a story about a player is brilliant I love listening to your story's about football players, James from Ireland 🇮🇪💚 YNWA bro . I'm a Liverpool fan all my life. 🤠🇮🇪☘️🕊️💯
Neymar's stats are actually mad! I thought i knew them, but damn, dude is a football Icon for a reason.
Neymar played against all the great Brazilian 90’s and early 2000’s players ronaldo ronaldinho rivaldo roberto Carlos and more if he stayed one more season in Brazil he would have played against kaka back in the day manz was killing it when he got to Europe the skilling got turned down to play system football which kills individuality and how a player expresses them selves. But at santos neymar was the man remember 2011 watching goal tv tun loads of brazilian football and a boat load of neymar clips at one point going outside and doing everything he did 😂 I honestly think neymar is the last of that breed of player that is unpredictable and magical and plays with a whole lot of flair can’t tell when last I’ve see a player did 3 or 4 step overs in a row
To think all this happened without a balloon d'or WOW
Thats because it don’t matters how good a player is. If he’s not playing in Europe, It didn’t matter for ballon d’or.
It’s simply not a worldwide prize. It’s an European only prize.
2000 Romario season in Brazil also was ridiculously good, and he wasn’t even in the top 10 list.
Neymar was only nominated because all the hype over his name. And really, even if he scored twice the goals, he would never win those ballon d’or. No matter what.
with prime CR and Messi dominated the Balloon d'or
cant really do much aint it
@@5at5una They just different breed

❤what a saying!"
Hey mate. Great videos. I watched most of them. Wondering when is a Luis Suarez video coming. He is my fav 9 ever
Another great tale happened in the game against CAP you show in the video (4x1). Right Before the game Antonio Lopes, CAP's coach, showed a newspaper photo of Neymar to his players and shouted: "this guy is not gonna do nothing against us tonight!". Then he tore the newspaper and stomped on it. As CAP's player Paulo Baier recalls, Neymar not only scored as he did it 6 times, with 2 goals been ruled offside... LOL!
* BTW, Great work, mate! Love your videos.
The CAP coach was completely correct. A real prophet!
As a grammar nerd (sorry), I will point out that he said a double negative, which makes it a positive.
Neymar's not gonna do nothing = he will do something. And he did!
I wonder if the coach felt like an idiot afterwards? On the other hand, a coach has to say assertive, encouraging things to his team.
7:57 what was that 😂
Sauce
Needs a part 2 brilliant video
My favourite player one of the most skilled players to ever play the game can't believe he got soo much and disrespect because of diving meanwhile most footballers dive when they know they can get a foul and everyone overlooks his talent and doesn't give him his praise🤦🏾♂️
He is back with another banger!
I hope he recovers very soon and play serious game on field from now time is less i want Neymar to lift his World Cup 🏆
Hahah I played the Copa Tv Tribuna de Futsal Escolar against Neymar's team (Liceu Sao Paulo) in 2005, here in Santos, and in many other opportunities at the AABB (Assosiacao Amigos do Banco do Brasil). I used to study at the Santa Cecilia school, which was owned by the former president of Santos F.C. - Milton Teixeira Jr, the Jr part is important because his family has a legacy in front of Santos F.C., his father, Milton Teixeira, was the president in times of Pelé playing for the team, particularly the time that Pelé got transferred to Cosmos NY. We had a particularly tough game in the final against Liceu. Neymar was outstanding. Since our school was owned by the president of Santos, 80% of our team was from the club youth team, due to the scholarship that the president offered to these (great) futsal youth players. Even this great team wasn't enough to beat him. I was benched this final and watched a legend be born.
It's funny to see that kid becoming worldly famous. Now I have a great story to tell to many people around the world about the days I used to play against him in my hometown.
Great video, great analysis, and great channel! Congratulations on your research, very deep and concise!
Its sad that he always gets injured. In my opinion, hes the most harshly treated player by fans ever
The only player in my opinion I have ever seen that could realistically have gotten to Messi's level but bad luck, injuries and some bad decisions cost him dearly. I hope he has one last high point before his career ends.
We need a Neymar series

Love this man really
Can you make a video about Rafael Leão? Great video!🎉😊
Hey man, I just want to say thanks for this video. Gave me a boosted perspective of a player I already liked.
He was insanely good at Santos, what he did there was out of this world
Because it's an easier league
@@IWannatalkpodcast Brazilian's 1st division league is better and way more competitive than 90% of european leagues. To be fair, it's more competitive even than Premier League because it has about 13 teams in the same level of popularity, history, and budget
Pelé is, by far, the greatest wonderkid that ever existed. At 23, he already had 410 goals and 177 assists in only 328 matches, 587 goal contributions. He had 15 trophies that included: 2 WCs, 2 Libertadores and 2 Intercontinentals.
At the age of 18 he was already a World Champion with decisive goals scored against France and Sweden (final match).
he played against farmers
@@arkabahce350 Beckenbauer, the greatest farmer of all times.

Haaland might change this but I'm not sure tho
Bro your work and respect for Brazilian football history are awesome, you are built differently in terms of knowing about football, our NT maybe not that strong and dominant as in past, for the other hand people tend to follow waves and shit to clowning Brazilian players forgetting their impact in their clubs and football in general, like as if the last champions league was not Rodrygo and Vini JR feeding Benzema and even destroying any team in Europe, like Neymar had no stats, the player with more goals for the hardest NT in history equal to Pelé, his stats in south america Santos, Barça 17, first PSG season, his stunning confederation cup that he destroyed every nation in front of him in 2013, his savage World Cup 2018, leading assistance and dribbles + player with more fouls suffered in the whole tournament, all that with Brazil leaving way sooner in the tournament, just people who really know about football and are familiarized with the sport see the things in the right way, congrats fam

what interview is that 😶
@@vetched sauce
I was 8 when he transfered to barca and even I can remember the hype about him. Me and my family visited some friends of ours and I can remember when there were the first rumors about Neymar going to barca. My brother and friends of him watched highlights about Neymar the first time and they immediately said: "He will become one of the best players ever."
Neymar in Santos was the best player I have ever seen myself and by my standards. He didn’t care about anything he just did what he wanted. Never seen anything like it, still waiting for anyone coming close to his skill level and confidence. Too bad he changed after moving to Europe but we have seen some glimpses of his true potential in PSG.
Would you be able to make a video of Dener? Had some amazing dribbling skills. Even put maradona in shock when he played against Newell Old Boys in a game. Sadly never managed to make it to the world cup of 94 as he passed away at a very young age...
When they all retire....for this generation the top three will always be Messi Ronaldo and Neymar. I just think he was so naturally gifted that he didn't need to try or put in the work. In his prime he was unplayable. Sadly we haven't even seen half of his ability there will always be a what if?...bro what if you tried you could have been the best
Why are all three forwards? It's hard for me to believe that none of the top 3 greatest players of this generation are goalies, midfielders or defenders.
@@jacobr5627 you can brush off defenders and goalies cause playing in those positions require significantly less skill than in attacking positions, defenders and goalies are still an important part of the game its just that they are not as technical, thing about neymar is in his prime his creativity, vision and playmaking(which are the most important attributes for midfielders) surpassed many midfielders and adding his goalscoring ability on top of that, it is hard to argue he was not the 3rd or even the 2nd best player in the world in his prime.
Neyma isn’t top 3 lmao
Where ?? In India?? The top 3 this generation are Messi,Ronaldo and then it goes between Modric,Ramos,Iniesta. Neymar?? Lol
I believe Suarez can also be considered the 3rd best
But it'd be fair to say that since crossing the Atlantic, he's yet to scale the heights expected of him
He didn't need to cross the Atlantic.
I would say he just proved how good he already was and the potential to be better since his earlies in Brazil.
Neymar na América do Sul foi espetacular. Em campo era um espetáculo de assistir⚽️🔥
Quality vids.
Neymar vs Ronaldinho, arguably two most talented and most entertaining to watch players ever and for some reasons they both failed to reach the peak they were able to
😢The king without crown
Living so young during this era. The era of most probably the greatest players to ever exist and grace the grassy fields of football. I always loved Neymar when I was younger, rooting and cheering for him even though my family weren't as interested in football as me. This era, coming to it's end will always sadden me and Neymar will always sadden and joy me at the same time. What a player he was, what a player he is.
Neymar would never survive 80s or 90s brutality. Also Messi,CR are best this generation...not ever. So this was a fine era for Neymar, but he went to Barca and with that talent he was 2nd to Messi. Barca almost played around Messi that time who was better in scoring with creativity. Neymar in ATM with Griezi would destroy both Barca and Real. And he left Barca and chose psg.
First your videos are the best I like them sooo much ❤❤🎉
Great video! Can you please do one on Rogerio Ceni? You mentioned him and was a monster of the Brazillian league, the first player to be nominated to a Baloon d’or while playing in South America (in 2005, when he got 11th place), someone who stayed as a one club player stuck in Brazil even after being considered the top 5-4 goalkeeper in the world multiple times. He holds many records, like the GK who defended the most penalties in history (51), who scored the most goals (131!), the player who played the most games for a single club in history (1237). The man was elected the best goalkeeper in the Brazilian league in 2000, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2008, year in which he also was elected the best player in the league. Let’s also not tall about the fact that he played until he was 42, from 1990 up until 2015.
Oh yeah, one other thing. You know how Juninho Pernambucano is the all time free-kick top scorer in the world with 77 free kicks? Well, Rogerio Ceni has 59 (61 including friendlies).
Anyways, I find it really interesting how he’s just completely unknown and not talked about in the world scene, even if he’s such a legend in the country, as he only played in Brazil (he also took part in the 2002 world cup, but he was mostly benched because of disagreements with the coach, even if for many it was clear he was the one who should be the national team’s goalkeeper).
Such a shame. If Ronaldo & Messi did not exist, players like Neymar, Hazard, Bale, Ribbery, Robben, Sanchez & many more all would've been competing for the balon dor.
Only Ribery from your list maybe. Others play attractive football but definitely not ballon do'r level. Iniesta, Xavi, Griezman, Suarez would have more chances. Maybe even Rooney. But Sanchez and Bale, please no😅
@@sagarranjan4585 u r absolutely dilutional prime Sanchez in arsenal was something else..he was the Messi of arsenal a beast..in 2016-17 season he was in the top 3 players in the world with Messi and Ronaldo..I always loved to watch him play..he single handedly took arsenal on his shoulders..he even made lazy Ozil again in his prime level..u already know Ozil Sanchez Dio is the best ever in arsenal club history I guess 🤷🏻♂️
thank you
Such a gifted footballer. So much love for O'Ney despite that PSG move in 2017 which certainly hampered his career
The most gifted player ever
He was way above the others in the Brasileirão, he was a demigod
*Shame how players like Neymar often get forgotten over time..*
what he is still here still famous. No one forget about him😊
He's tied top scorer with Pele for Seleçao, and their top assist. He's written in history already
@@drawhanidraw yes and he may exceed pele in next few years
@CoffeeBanana he was my frnd , but not now .. now its all abt messi, ronaldo after that mbappe and haaland ..... but neymar will be the only player who got closest to messi and ronaldo in 2014-2017
@Lupoty He is leagues below Messi and Ronaldo
I switched teams because of him! 2010-2013 Santos was just one of the best teams ever in brazillian football. Thanks for making my childhood better, Ney de moicano... SANTOS 🐋
é inegavel que o cara é um monstro, levando em conta toda a história aqui, eu nem consigo julgar o atual estado do menino.
I love him. He should have never left Barca. He would have been a ballon d’or winner by now. I hope Brazil win the next World Cup
Nunca vou superar dunga não chamando ronaldinho gaucho e neymar pra essa copa simplesmente o inimigo da estratégia
I remember when I watched him play back in 2010 .. you can just tell he was touch by god to play football , I knew he'd be all world player .
This is MY goat.
Could've reached somewhere nearer Messi's level only if he stayed at Barca..left to get out of Messi's shadow and left football instead..has played like less than 60% of PSG's games since his joining, that's just simply astonishing.
He should have gone to Juventus.... Him being at Barca made him a second or even the third best,Suarez was the best too in his own regards. But at Juventus they had a powerful team to rule them all in Italy imagine if they had that Neymar am sure he would have gotten them two CL or even more.
Thanks for the respect for Suarez. Like Neymar, he only didn't get a ballon'dor because he had to compete with prime Messi and Ronaldo
as a Juve fan, I couldn't disagree more. Neymar does not fit the type of player that would thrive at Juve, or in Italy. He is too weak, and he would be injured 4 out of 5 games. He's a flashy player. Juve does not do flashy. We do team ethic and fight together. Even Ronaldo was completely wrong for Juve, a big mistake to buy him.
Neymar is better than Suarez and messi.
@@rekt-oe1ehIn Saudi arabia with 31 years old, lol, sure he's better than messi.😂😂😂
@@felipeemanuel5790 Neymar 10 better than pessi 30 (8-2) who plays in the weakest league in the planet usa soccer. Saudi Pro right now is stronger than the french farmers league
I liked this doc about neymar. it's just missing 3 things. 1 - the scouter who discovered him in Santos, firtly watched a kid running through the stands without losing his balance... 2 - you should show neymar goal agains atletico mg when the defenders shocked into each other. 3 - and show his goal against Internaticional de porto alegre, almost a puskas.
y'all really not gonna talk abt the most replayed part of this video? 😂
the guy was a monster at santos he deserved more
i agree with most things but you're wrong, Riquelme was nominated(13th) for the Ballon d'Or in 2007 after winning the Copa Libertadores, Golden boot and MVP at the same tournament scoring 4 goals in the final and also took Argentina to Copa America final which they ultimately lost to Brazil. All this while playing for Boca Juniors, the biggest club in Argentina
He probably meant that Neymar was top 10 Ballon D'or Player.
That's why some still label him a flop cause his potential was so high even when he's had a decent career. He's already surpassed a lot of legends but people still expect more from him. Just unlucky he was born in the Messi/Ronaldo era. I still believe in him, I hope he at least gets a ballon dr or before he retires
Neymar was one of hyped wonder stars had performances too back it up.Just crazy puskas award even nominated for ballondor while playing for santos.
Pelé is the greatest wonderkid ever, alongside Mozart
Pelé isnt smart at all
Neymar could have been best in the world
Ronaldo Nazario is the greatest wonderkid. At 16 he was showing things that were never seen before
Obrigado desde Braga.. canal e conteúdo ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was born February 5th. I'm still waiting for the scouts to notice
dude I don’t know where you’re from but this is amazing, I’m brazilian and I’m impressed at how detailed and precise this video is
I remember almost every moment of this era, I’m a Corinthians fan and Santos is one of our biggest rivals but I loved watching them because of Ney and Ganso, which btw I think is the only point u missed to cover, because this duo was so iconic and Ganso was ridiculously good as well
Ney was legendary during this era
Ele é português
@@JVRD27 boa 👌🏼
o teu ingles é excelente, maquina.
abraço
I fell in love with football because of his skills❤️
i really wonder if messi and ronaldo never played football if he would win it at Santos, Barca and PSG
Neymar in santos was unreal.. In 2011 when internet and social media were not common yet, his name was spreading around the globe.. The hyped was almost as big as young R9.. Every kids wanted to be like neymar, every kids wanted to play like him, got mohawk haircut like him... Every skilled footballers were called junior in their last name to represent neymar... Hes already completed when hes came out same as R9.. Even messi and cr7 were not as hyped as him cause messi and cr7 were late bloomers... But footballer like Neymar will never come again... No matter how haters completely mocked or downgraded him.. Hes still the best wonderkid of all times and the third best footballer in Messi cr7 era... Theres no next neymar whatsoever .. Vini,Mbappe,haaland,saka,musiala or any of others will never reached even half of Neymar in santos....❤
2011 social media was pretty common dude, I don't know what you're talking about.
@@felipeemanuel5790 no... Only rich kid got computer and wifi... Any ordinary people including me in malaysia only had normal button phone with no internet at all.. in malaysia lot of people started using social media in 2014 when android phone was introduced ...
Do a video on hulk next. Grande video caralhooooo
