Neymar Jr.

[Temptation]

agree. but neymar never had a powerful shot. different game style to ronaldo.

It's not about power It's about it being effective.

Messi's shots aren't that powerful but his placement is impeccable and he gets goals from it. Hence, he's a good shooter.

Neymar isn't. Never was.

Harry Kane is an insane shooter from any range. Best in the business.

Don't necessarily disagree but people are so biased towards dribbling while talking about talent.

Ronaldo, apart from his array of skill moves had insane ability in the air, was a set piece specialist and had shooting ability with both feet which Neymar could only dream of.

Why are these things not considered talent? They aren't physical attributes. They're all extremely technical. Just as technical as dribbling

Very well said.

Ronaldo used to be freekick specialist but he has sucked for years now

Neymar in 14-15 had an outstanding finishing. In 15-16 and 17-18 he was also good.

Sure. But the truly elite shooters/finishers just have that quality all the time(or most of the time). Even when they are slightly off form.

I'd say Neymar is not at that level in terms of this attribute

I think he lost part of his stamina and scoring after those big runs is tough if you are exhausted. He missed so many easy chances(after running long time or dribbling a lot). Just theory of course. He did lose stamina older he got though.

Four years ago he was much lighter on his feet.

Barca time he could run forever.

 

[Messigician]

He was offered to us and we turned him down

Ney is crushed but believes if he can show his quality Laprota will reconsider

3rd highest kilometres ran out of anyone in the Real, PDG game

Only Modric and Verrati ran more

 

[Messigician]

What is clear is his speed and dribbling has taken major hits

He will do great as a false 9 and will compliment Fati and Auba well

True, but how exhausted was he after that? When he was younger I never even thought he got tired.

Agree, only a fool would think Neymar was better than Ronaldo. Hate the narcissistic bastard, but he is easily better.

 

[SmilerBam]

When MSN was at the peak of their power, my order in prefference was always Messi, Suarez and then Neymar. Always had an argue with my father about Neymar and Suarez, he thought the brazilian is better, but i always thought Suarez is the more complete player at his peak.

If I were PSG, I would take the money and drive him to the airport. Would Neymar event want to go to England? Would he fare well there?

PSG fans are happy to drive him to airport. He is signed till 2026 for ridiculous amount of money. Selling him to Newcastle would be great business.

They need to sell while they can.

PSG fans malding he's there until 2026 lmfao
