I've never believed he was up there with Ronaldo and Messi -- and he never will be

He’s literally the new Robinho now.The most telling and damning element of Neymar's time in France is,especially with the emergence of the home wonderkid Mbappe,is I dont think anyone really cares about him.
Neymar is arguably more of a after thought at PSG than he was at Barcelona,a club where he was reported to be desperate to move out of Messi's shadow.
Yeah, he accomplished something special by moving from Barca to PSG. He stepped into a bigger shadow.The most telling and damning element of Neymar's time in France is,especially with the emergence of the home wonderkid Mbappe,is I dont think anyone really cares about him.

I feel that I have been badly cheated. I was sold some wrestling and it ended up being a weak shirt pull and a dive.Tweet

I think most expected him to take over the mantle of best in the world when Ronaldo and Messi hit their 30s and declined. At this rate Neymar will be finished before them.I've never believed he was up there with Ronaldo and Messi -- and he never will be
He's so sad in his prison that he's probably cleaning his tears and blowing his nose to 500€ bills.He's trapped at PSG because he signed such a big contract and went for such a huge fee. Golden handcuffs.
Who said that would be enough? There are better teams than PSG out there, with better players than they have.If he had some nerve/character, he would give a 100% next season and win PSG the UCL.
But he ain't a leader.
I'll just take him being healthy in the games that matter at this point.If he had some nerve/character, he would give a 100% next season and win PSG the UCL.

You have a point here, but he's still a massive cnut and that's what is stopping him to be up there with the other two.He was the best player in the world for a brief period around October - December 2015 when Messi was out injured and Ronaldo was not at his best under the brief Benitez regime. He was just unbelievable in that period. Was the protagonist to the demolition of Madrid 0-4 at their own ground with Messi on the bench.
Since then he has only shown glimpses of his full potential such as the games against PSG (that famous remontada) and for PSG before that untimely injury last February. Apart from making the wrong choice leaving Barca; it's not really his fault he's been injured so much. Just horrible luck. On his day, he's still better than anyone not named CR or Messi and the most entertaining player on the ball in the world IMO.
The Robinho comparisons are harsh and quite absurd. He's far better than Robinho and has had a much better career still.
What a silly comparison.He’s literally the new Robinho now.
Done dealio.
He's a better player than Mbappe.He went to PSG to get away from Messi and be the undisputed main man. Mbappe has now overtaken him and he's probably not happy about it. Strikes me as a very fragile ego, and the type who will follow the money. Would not surprise me at all if he's in China within 2 years.
Granted, I don't watch much of PSG. Mbappe looks the much more effective player to me. I don't dislike Neymar either. I thought he was tremendous in the 2014 World Cup, and he looked great for Barca when I watched them. I havent seen him do much at PSG, as I said though, I've only seen him in the CL. He was shite at the 2018 World Cup too.He's a better player than Mbappe.
Mbappe was a bit subdued during his 1st season at PSG. He was better for Monaco the prior season.Granted, I don't watch much of PSG. Mbappe looks the much more effective player to me. I don't dislike Neymar either. I thought he was tremendous in the 2014 World Cup, and he looked great for Barca when I watched them.

Hyperbole is a hell of a drug.While it was a bad move career wise going to PSG, the injuries have been the big hit.
He was sensational during his 1st season at PSG before he got injured.
Since his 1st injury though, I don't think he's ever fully recovered. I think he's lost a teeny bit of pace.
Wonder what the future holds. Maybe PSG might be tempted to sell him considering his injury woes lately?
He was though.Hyperbole is a hell of a drug.
They're already a pub league though.He was though.
He was making Ligue 1 look like a pub league.
I honestly cannot stand Neymar, he’s such a gigantic twat, and just about everything I hate about the modern footballer, wrapped into one highly punchable package. But the logic of your post is still spot on. Emotions aside he’s obviously a brilliant player. But it’s hard to escape the notion that he has robbed himself of the opportunity to go down as an all time great by forcing through the transfer to PSG.There's a lot of hate for Neymar on here but his commitment to his sister and his theatrics aside, he's been a brilliant player and all this seems to get overlooked. The comparisons to Robinho are a joke and imo he's still definitely better than Mbappé if he can stay fit.
The move though was an absolute disaster both for him and Barcelona. The latter would probably have another CL title if he were still there. He's still quality and if he's available on the cheap/a swap deal I think he'd be fantastic for Barcelona again.
