These comparisons are just so bad.. They played completely different roles than Neymar, its his job to go for those 1v1's, to provoke fauls, if he wasn't Neymar and playing for Barcelona he would win a yellow card every 5 minutes.
Did you talk with a coach and a coach told you that Neymar's job is to provoke fauls, go into 1vs1s all the time etc?
If a coach told him that, then a coach is also an idiot then.
And also, there is a difference between:
1) touching the ball 30 times per match and go into 5-6-7-8 solo actions, when you "feel" that it is a perfect moment and playing "normal" actions/simple passes in other 22-25 occasions
2) touching the ball 30 times per match and more or less go EVERY SINGLE time into a solo action (not too different than Adama's style) regardless if you are 20 or 60 meters away from an opponent's goal and regardless whether you have 2 or 8 opponents infront of you
Of course that his job is to dribble, try to create chances etc.
But again, you need to have some brains and football feeling about when to try a solo action.
If you are attempting a solo action in more or less any opportunity, then:
1. either your coach is an idiot, if that was his tactical idea
2. that wasn't your coach's tactical idea, and your coach can't control you/or is afraid to tell you to use your brain a little more often
3. or Neymar is just one of the dumbest players around in terms of decisions
