Neymar has been shown to play as a central striker, false 9, or even in midfield if need be.
Correct. I feel, or have to assume rather, due to some of these comments that half of the people here barely watch the Brazilian league, hence barely watch Neymar and just repeat what other people say without proper knowledge to come up with an opinion of their own.
With that said, Neymar is indeed an immense TALENT. One of the best players in the world- no, very good yes, but no. The Brazilian league isn't nearly as bad as some of you say it is, but there is a lot more space there compared to Spain in particular. However you can't knock Neymar for his play, he can dribble and shoot with both feet and I love the heavy first touch as he uses his speed to sprint past defenders....really haven't seen that done so gracefully since Ronaldo do Brazil.
I hate the diving and I hate the way he celebrates, but his general attitude has improved and is not bad. He is a very hard worker on the pitch and the kid gets hit over and over again and he just keeps playing his game. I still see him as the best pure young talent- he just really needs to leave Brazil already so his game can develop, he needs to start adapting to tighter European formations. The only other young player I find exciting to watch and oozes with class when it comes to his movement and touch is Isco for me, but we already have a lot of talent in his position
