Why are they trying to push neymar out of brazil? At the end of their day hes still their best player (yes even over vini). And when he clearly not that level anymore he'll transistion out. He even scored the goal against Croatia they just blew the lead he gave them

I understand how unreliable Neymar is but Shaka is way off in this, there are very few games where Neymar hasn't been the best player for Brasil. World Cup and non World Cup performances. He has delivered constantly for Brazil, even on their last loss against Croatia he almost single handedly get them to win.

He still had a better career than everyone on the show put together

Neymar’s downfall was from injuries. Nothing to do with his personality or him going to parties. And don’t say his partying is what caused those injuries. Absolute horseshit. Most of his injuries were from jealous, envious players who tried to hurt him.

He was the best Brazilian player in 2022 WC literally Vinícius was a Ghost 👻 and Neymar carried the team on his arms since 2014. I think Neymar was un lucky, he never have a good team after Barcelona. No good team in PSG and in Brazil. Look his numbers and are awesome

These guys don't understand that Neymar is vini's and Rodrygo's idol , if they really wanna do something for him , they're not gonna let him go that easy and will surely give their all to get him to a trophy.

Neymar is still the best player in Brazil since last 12 years

I my opinion Neymar still the best and even before his last match for Brasil he said he was not at his 100% to play and this people went off really bad on saying that it has to be Vinicius jr’s Brasil for 2026 Brasil still needs neymar he went a made two goals and one assist and this people still saying that Brasil don’t need him and what about the game with Croatia Neymar literally did everything for Brasil

The only time PSG reached the UCL final Neymar was not injured. The media is abit harsh on him. I don't think Neymar planed to have injuries on the other years.

Neymar has done enough to be considered as one of the best players of our generation since at 19 playing for Santos he was voted top 10 in Ballon Dor voting playing outside a top 5 league in Europe, he was crucial in a Barcelona team that won the treble in 2015 and he was the top scorer in the champions league along with Messi and Ronaldo and even at PSG he had his great moments for them domestically and got them to a champions league final in 2020. Now he’s the top scorer of all time in the history of Brazil scoring 79 goals for them and along with that he has 56 assists involved in a has a goal/assist ratio per game for his country which is impressively good. People can question what he does off the field, players have lives outside of football as well and they should be able to enjoy it without being criticized but those who say Neymar only cares about partying and not the game I don’t know what to say there’s nothing wrong in him doing that athletes should be able to have fun off the pitch without anybody criticizing what they do. It’s not even about his behavior off the field that has put him under scrutiny throughout his career, Neymar’s move to PSG was simply the wrong decision as he wanted to have his own team and be the main man and step out of Messi’s shadow at Barcelona but he should’ve stayed there which would’ve been a better overall decision in his career but no he decided to go to PSG and it’s not even about money or having his own team, the league he’s playing in is considered as a weak league and not the most competitive and playing in Ligue 1 meant that not only did he throw away the best years of his career by playing in a league that lacks quality competition, he tarnished his legacy by going there since whatever he achieved domestically people were never gonna respect him he was never gonna get praise for winning 5 Ligue 1 titles or the 14 trophies they won, the goals he scored his greatness there was measured off of what he did for them in the champions league and unfortunately Neymar is seen as a failure at PSG for not winning the champions league for them since the reality people don’t care about your success domestically in Ligue 1. He fell short of his full potential and he’s now playing in Saudi Arabia at the age of 31 which has led to people saying that’s he’s a wasted talent who could’ve achieved a lot more in his career and that’s how good he was and how good he should’ve been.

These analysts were average players in thier time and yet they talk negative about a player who just became all time top goal scorer for brazil 🤦‍♂️Give your agenda a rest atleast for now 😂

Neymar is still one of the best. I don’t understand the narrative at all. He proved how good he is last night. He is far less self destructive than the other players who this show reveres. He is integral to the Brazilian team.

These pundits are crazy. It would be nice if the next world cup was Vini or Rodrigo world cup, but it can't or it will not happen because Nobody in Brazil team is better than Neymar!

Neymar will win the next World Cup and will shut everybody's mouth.

Brazil should make a team around Neymar in 2026 because we have seen Brazil without Neymar last match

I have no issues with Neymar's decisions. He felt it was the right time to leave Barcelona and have his own team. He took PSG to the Champions league final and could have won it if FIFA didn't allow Bayern Munich to get away with one cardable offense after another. His decision to go to Saudi Arabia is misunderstood. The fans had turned against him and Mbappe was conspiring against him, so he felt compelled to leave. Only the Saudis could afford the transfer fee.

Wow...brazil with 2 of the best goalkeepers in the world with Ederson and Alisson 😲👏👏👏

33 more games , all in qualifications. 4:34 Well to be fair, Ney was Brazils best player in the WC 2014 and Copa 2021 so he has been their best player for at least 9 years.

Neymar isn't the reason Brazil hasn't won the trophies they are historically used to this generation. That reason largely falls on the fullbacks. It turns out Roberto Carlos and Cafu were harder to replace than all the legendary forwards and attacking midfielders.

It's not Neymar's fault. See the players he's playing with, especially Richarlison.

Neymar won the Copa America & Olympics, it’s unfair putting the blame on Neymar alone that he didn’t step up to win the World Cup.

Vini doesn't have anywhere near the playmaking and midfield skills of Neymar yet

Can espn just talk about man’s achievement without the narratives

None of these guys on ESPN were great players. Their analysts are personal against the player. Even after breaking the record Ale Moreno still doesn’t make any sense. In the national team, Neymar has been playing with the worst teammates ever while he always carried this team injured or not. I wonder if these guys know the quality of players that used to play for Brazil from 1958-2010 compare to Neymar’s generation. Talking about Vini Jr, he’s been only good in Madrid but in Brazil he’s just an average player and you guys saw it in the last 3 international games. Neymar is not responsible for the lack of talents in the seleçao, he is not responsible if other players haven’t done well. FYI Mr Moreno you don’t have play in top teams in Europe to play a competition like the WC. Stop lying to yourself, NEYMAR JR is the main man for Brazil until his retirement. He will still be the same player in 3 years and there’s no doubt. Such narratives aren’t for genius like Neymar. All he needs is for Brazilian actual players to replicate what average Argentinian players have done for Messi in the last WC and a great coach. ESPN should fire all of you for not being able to being objective in your analysts and not knowing Brazilian football history. Sadly, Cafu was right about you….😢😅😅

Very poor analysis for both Shaka and Alen Moreno. You don't know anything about football, but only to talk trash. Please give the Guy a credit rather than talking nonsense. Where is Vini, when Brazil played against Senegal.

What is this logic they speak that every player in the world should play in Europe to be good? Wake up, there are leagues in the world and players whose quality is much, much higher than many players in Europe, but there is no media spotlight on them. Europe is not a measure of football in the world. You, the European League, from my point of view, is just media inflation. Look at the difference between Sir Maguire’s 80 million that the media is trying to impose. As a player, look at Neymar, the all-time top scorer in Brazil, with $90 million What standards are you talking about? A player like Maguire, I swear to you, if he were in the Brazilian, Mexican, or Saudi League, he would not be accepted to play in street clubs for free.

Vinicius rn cannot be the main man for a team. We see that with Real Madrid rn. Jude Bellingham is actively filling the gap left behind by Karim Benzema and will most likely be the club’s future captain. Vini is a great player and possibly the best winger in the world but he cannot be the main man, or the center of the project.

Can you all be positive about Neymar for once

I agree Neymar is their best player. Neymar had the potential to rival Messi, his dribbling and finesse with the ball is second to none. It’s sad how his career has gone. So much potential wasted by ego, greed, bad decisions, immature behavior, injuries.

ESPN and especially Shaka have an agenda against Neymar. How hasn't he delivered for Brazil????? either they're daft and don't actually watch him play or theres a straight agenda against him. Cant take this show seriously sometimes.

I used to dislike ale preferring some of the other pundits but I really think he is one of the most objective there particually in terms of recent comments about messi, feels like there is a strong bias towards epl

They want Vinicius to be the main man who has 3 goals in 23 games for Brazil. Just lol.

Vinícius Jr. is a great player, but not at Neymar's level. Neymar's talent and flairs is historical. It is very unfortunate he hasn't achieved much with Brazil, but much of it was not his fault. I have enjoyed watching his game, as a football fan.

If Messi has to wait until he is 33/34 to get first trophy for Argentina why Brazil cannot remain patient with Neymar continue work their team around hm and let likes of Vini to support him....why not Alie?

Crazy he’s only 31 and already in talks of the end ... crazy

My God, they didn’t watch the game

The gods of football have their way of rewarding the just and proving naysayers wrong. Don't be surprised Neymar goes to the next world cup and playing an integral part as Brazil wins the cup!

I feel like on the international stage Ronaldo and Neymar get treated the same. Somehow it's always entirely their fault whether they win or lose. And when they lose the negativity is so crazy. As if they are the entire sole problem. That's messed up man. Especially when both guys have given there all for their country. Feel bad seeing Neymar always scapegoated.

The thing that made neymars career worse is he went from playing left wing at barca to playing like a hybrid cam/left wing at psg and it just never worked with mbappe. They both like to be on the ball too much. They could never have a real structure or system or true formation playing together.

Neymar didn't have luck with PSG, but he could still redeem himself with Brazil men's national team and his current club in Saudi Arabia and future clubs.

It’s a good thing that Brazil can care less what ESPN has to say about who should be on the Brazil World Cup team in the future 🙄

Brazil biggest problem was sending these young players to Europe, losing the Brazilian style of play..

Ney is the most potential player of his generation, arguably till now. Consistency and determination is his weakness. Just an exact opposite side with CR

Still this channel can’t digest on neymar success and criticising his move.

Neymar jr best injoyable player ever magic

How did I miss Joelinton got called up for Brazil? 😆 🤣 😂

As a Brazilian. Neymar needs a world cup no matters what. He now #1 Brazilian all time score leader but he won't be remembered much if he doesn't have a WC championship

Focus on the positive the past is the past he is good

Just to shut everyone up Neymar has always delivered for Brazil

yea these guys don’t know what they’re talking about did they not watch brazil play ?

ESPN shame on you ,so biased , i can literally see that they have a hate on Neymar

Neymar played as hard as anyone on PSG vs Bayern. I didn't see an effort issue on the field.

bro did an ankara messi run and none of the premier or laliga teams want him. Dont. and see what chelsea is going through. if they bought neymar or messi, they wouldnt be in that position

Neymar is the man for brazil Until he retires Neymars talent is way beyond vini and rodrigo all the other players at Brazil

Do you know why Neymar is the leading scorer? Because Brazil goes on promotional tours where they charge $3Million dollars a match! Brazil plays more games now than in the 70's or 90's.

I bet we aren't having these discussions if he went to MLS😂😂

He is the Uncrown KING .I wish if he had won atleast one BALLON D'0R....The most talented footballer of this generation next to Messi is probably NEYMAR.....

Another saga of making all the big names who went to Saudi look bad or make it seem that they failed their careers.

Impressive against Bolivia ....bring Belgium, Germany Argentina or just any team in top 10 teams in rankings Mxm.....

I don't know but why richarlison is playing for Brazil. He shouldn't be in the squad.

It took 30+ more games to pass Pele ... debate over ...

unless they are talking about messi i don’t think these guys say anything worth listening to at all they literally build their own narrative of neymar and ronaldo and run with it for years how do they still have jobs

Neymar is arguably the best player ever. He's always done his part of the job but the defense concede just too much. if you look back to Qatar world cup he was the best player of the tournament without the hype but Croatia managed to get that critical goal, which discredits his entire efforts.

5:46 Vinicious is NOT the man either. And once Neymar is in that team, it WILL be HIS team... even Ancelotti knows this. Neymar's best chance was when he literally got kicked out through his back, but no one wants to talk about that. 2022, honestly, don't know what Tite did that made them crumble like that, must blame every single player also. Maybe they went in to it too complacent and over confident and then under performed.

Messi treats Neymar just like Ronaldinho treats Messi and it seems like Neymar could be the one to replace Messi at Barcelona but all of sudden he went to PSG and it didn't work out well for both.

I think Brazil needs to build the team against Roque he will be the next R9

He should be playing in Europe where the eyes of the world would be on him.

I’m with Luis. I’m a Real Madrid and Marseille fan. I was scared to play Messi but Ronaldhino ? He made not want to go to school every Monday after Classico and Derby. You couldn’t do nothing with him

Pele has more goals in general for Brazil, this is just FIFA numbers.

Neymar at the next World Cup will be a 10

Why be so salty in admitting that he had a bit of an underwhelming career (not in terms of trophies but in terms of how much more he could have done to be considered as one of the greatest next to messi and ronaldo).

Many are called but few are chosen. Neymar never had the luck required.. he tried is best... Vinni jnr is not good enough right now but he is the guy.. he can do it.. he might get the luck required along the way.

Neymar is such a great player but because he couldn’t get over the fact that messi was a bit better than him at that time is sad because he could’ve become an unbelievable player at Barcelona.

Neymar passed pele in international goals but What does it mean? 😂 why is it important

What makes me feel bad is that he will retire without Ballon Dor😢

2013 confederations cup winner and golden ball is that not a major silverware ?

Someone should tell shaka about the fact that Carlo is not official

These mfs say trash throughout their conver Brazil has to build its game on Neymar.Vini is like 23 he young to carry Brazil

Neymar ended his career when he let his selfishness take over and left Barca. They should build around Raphina, Vinnie, and Roque.

Congrats to Neymar for becoming the highest goal scorer for Brazil. He's still not a top 10 Brazilian player of all time

Are you guy that young, this man has not just the most goals, but the most assist in Brazils history. Someone said he hasn't achieved as much as Sterlin or hazard lol. These commentators are out of reality. Very few global stars have achieved as much as Neymar in his career. At the end of his career he will have more international goals than Messi and CR7 he already has more assists and he is only 31, at what age did Messi win an international title with Argentin or CR7 with Portugal? Lol people just hate Ney and are dilutions about his career. He has lifted multiple trophies, including- Olympic gold with Brazil, confederation cup with Brazil (destroyed Spain's greatest team, almost single handedly). Lifted every cup in Europe with both Barcelona and PSG. Has the most assist in a single season in the CPL the year the won with Barca come on. The only thing is Ney had the potential to eclipse Messi but he willingly went to barca and gave up on that dream. The most talented player to lace them up in my opinion. Just my opinion though, feel free to disagree.

This record is controversial because the record is based on Fifa's counts. Pele real record for Brazil CBF records is 95. Pele actually holds the Guinness world record for most goals 1284 goals in total, he did score over 1000 goals and has 1091 goals for Santos FC and scored 127 goals just in 1959 alone. Later in Europe they invented a new system to discount and take away titles and goals with official and unofficial games. Pele actually has more titles then Lionel Messi and Daniel Alves 60 in total. Pele has more goals then Cristiano Ronaldo and Josef Bican according to Guinness world records. Pele has the most hat tricks 92, but I believe there is actually a lot more since they discounted many of his real goal tally. Other one who gets a honorable mention was the legendary tiger in Brazil Arthur Friedreich who is said to scored 1300 goals although not officially confirmed according to legend in Brazil, far more then any other player. But Pele officially did score more goals then anyone else in history.

I wish Ney would have waited to go to that place...i know he ONLY went for the stupid money but it'll probably cost his career.. he has so much potential, one of the best in the world, much more talented & better than the 🐢 & haland..

Neymar is unarguably brazils best player Vinicius was a ghost in worldcup only two I saw in that whole team was Neymar and rodrygo no midfield no defense just all on Neymar’s back as usual

Watched highlights of Brazil vs Bolivia and all i can say about Neymar is that he looked a bit heavy? Real Madrid Eden Hazard vibes if you know what i mean.

Ney is the most talented player ive seen

Ale M. You should stop to say anything against Neymar. What is your achievement as a player.

If wasted talent was a person

My all time fev neymar..I don't care who says what..nd I m a real madrid fan

Neymar is supposed to be what Mbappe is Right now

Neymar is like an unreliable supercar.... When it performance he is a world beater... But...but...he has serious reliability issues(injuries)😅

I know its very difficult but i really hope Neymar does win the 2026 WC only to shut up the twats of ESPN

Neymar is one of my favorite players and I understand he hasn’t won us a World Cup but do we forget he has carried Brazil on his back for a long time and when we have needed him to step up he does the Croatia game wasn’t his fault at all and let’s not forget 2018 World Cup he was playing injured the whole time and still carried us and didn’t he win us our 1st Gold Medal in the Olympics sooooo let’s relax on trying to push Neymar out Brazil team

Obviously Neymar is very talented but never reliable, and he didn’t show enough ambition except for 2020 champions league he should hav shown a serious level in training and games and fitness and showed strength to stay in Europe in any other team and play for the champions league and be the best in brazil but he just looks like he is ready to retire , his celebration with the record last match eventhough it's a great record but looks like he thinks it's his last achievement

There is no player as talented as R9. His name doesn't receive enough recognition. If it weren't due to injuries, we might never have to decide who the goat is and I am a Messi advocate.

Neymar is still the best Brazilian player. Vini Jr just plays for a team that does well in the UCL, that doesn’t mean he is Neymar level player.

Neymar is still the best player in Brazil since last 12 years. Neymar is still the best player in Brazil since last 12 years.

I don't think Neymar has a chance to compete with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in terms of ballon d'ors or best player titles, but Neymar can still redeem himself with Brazil national team winning international titles. Neymar if he dedicates himself could win world cups 2026, 2030, 2034. I have a feeling Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will want to play one more world cup for the world record being the only players to play 6 world cups. Neymar and Mbappe could possibly end up doing that too. You don't get that many opportunities to play in a World Cup or Olympics, so Neymar still has some way to go. Neymar only real best shot to be the world's best now is to win a Fifa world cup in the future and be the best player if he can pull that off somehow and have an amazing season. It is harder to win playing outside of Europe for a Fifa's best or ballon d'or. He is the world's most expensive player historically and was 3rd best player in the world. He fell behind Luka Modric of Croatia, Robert Lewandowski of Poland, Benzema in world player of the year awards.

Neymar needs to go to MLS, lead another team like Orlando and have a proper rivalry with Messi. Especially since Orlando has a Brazilian owner. I doubt Europeans and S. Americans will ever change their minds about him. Most Americans are ignorant to him under performing and he could win hearts and minds here.

Just another way for ESPN FC to throw shads on the Saudi league 😂 they can’t believe that we got all the stars now and we became the place to be
