LOL Please...
We need wingers who can beat their man and shoot/pass... Both Tello and Deulofeu do that without all the mohawks and bullshit fancy moves. Guess what, they don't cost 60 mill either!
What could have Tello done this year to progress further? We'll never know because Tito doesn't have the guts to change anything besides sticking to Pep's leftovers.

I think Neymar has twice the marketing potential as Messi. Talent wise, it's no contest, but when you want commercials personality goes a long way, and Messi has none. Every commercial I've ever seen Messi in I'm bored to death and he speaks a total of three words. With Neymar, the sky's the limit. He's got the flashy, magnetic in front of camera type of personality that sells. Messi is marketable because he is the GOAT and nothing more.

Shoot? Check
Pass? Check
Dribble players? Check
Mohawks & fancy moves, what does that got to do with anything?
What has Deulofeu done in the first team? Exactly nothing lololol.

It's only because it's a Japanese commercial.
Jaden, who is Santos playing and how good are they? Also, do you have a stream?

I always wondered why Neymar is such a marketable figure... To me he seems like a skinny guy with a punchable face and feeble personality...
I agree Messi has the charisma of a brick wall and him being the best out there is the only reason why he gets so many publicity contracts... Iniesta, as good as a player he is, doesn't get marketed as much because he's not the greatest and he's just as boring as Messi, hahaha... However, I don't see anything about Neymar either...
For example, Ronaldo is an arrogant idiot who also has a punchable face and over the top haircuts, but he appeals to a part of the female consumers and to young kids who like football... He also has the stereotypical appearance of a professional athlete which can send an unmistakable image of health and success to non-sport crowds... In my opinion, Neymar has neither of those, so I'm left wondering what's so special about his image...

Neymar has been meh so far, hasn't been able to get the ball where he wants it or often enough. He's been pretty good at taking corners/crossing though.

I can see a lot of teenie girls really picking up on the Neymar hype. He kind of has that rapper swag, if you will. And we all know that most rappers aren't the best looking bunch but some seem to get loads of attention for what they do. Same deal.
I see Neymar as a walking commercial. Every time he does a fancy flick, sombrero or juke, it looks sensational and has potential to make companies millions. People want to be that guy. Messi, in all his unprecedented brilliance does not have that type of flare or charisma, so he's much more limited in that respect to say CR. It also helps that Neymar is a Brazilian. In United States in particular, people love Pele and have this absurd notion that anything Brazilian or with fancy tricks must be good. Pretty hard to believe, but it's true. Huge marketing potential, you understand. It's weird but a lot of people here probably don't even know who Maradona is. I didn't before I started following football... but I knew who Pele was.
So bad boy looks (teenie girls) + fancy moves (young players aspirations) + Brazilian samba flare (A la Ronaldinho/Pele) = $$$
