Pele : Neymar is better than Messi.

I have defended this guy up to now..........but this is taking it too far.

“Messi is very good, but much depends on where he plays. He is doing very well in Barcelona, but [with] the Argentina team, which is not yet fully formed, he has difficulties. Neymar plays well for both Santos and the national team.”

What has Neymar done for the Brazillian national team that Messi hasn't for the Argentine national team?

why are we making a thread every time pele speaks?

Romario:"A quiet Pele is a poet."

We should make a thread strictly for Pele'isms

inb4 LM's wrath

Well of course, even Robinho is better than Messi

a quiet pele is better than anybody

Pele is a real life troll, now i understand

Pele is a goallegacy member

pele aka huntsman

Pele is hating on Messi

Too bad Neymar has stated 50 times in the past 2 weeks that he has a lot to learn to even approach Messi, coming to Barcelona will be one of those steps

He is just butthurt that Maradona was better than him.

childish comparisons again. he said maradona was one foot and can not use his head.

this man lost his virginity to a man what you expect from him

Xavi: Pele deceived Messi, he's suffering.

Messi is not Brazilian league proven.

Real GOATs play for Santos.

whos neymar??

Fixed.

I like how Americans pronounce Pele

Paylay!

Are you guys talking about Nerman?

Neymar is a brasilian facial creem? Or is it Noxema?

Guys is neymar really that good??

To be honest i havent seen a lot of him at all, kinda over the whole brazilian wonder kid as most of them go to fail to live up to their up and coming status.

If you cpuld choose between balotelli or neymar who would you take ?

Oh and made the decision purely based off there talent not attitude as im not intrested in neymar attitude i just wanna know how good this kid is.

He looks better than most I've seen for some reason............most of those Brazillian wunderkids seem to be just that.....kids.....they do some magical stuff but it never really amounts to anything in the end.He is winning trophies and stepping up and taking responsibility in a way I haven't seen much kids do in a long long time.

Also...I get what your saying about the whole Brazillian wunderkid thing......but you have to admit some of them turn out amazing beyond belief.......I think he's one of the good ones.

The flip side is........brazil is known to kneejerk over everything football related.At one point I was convinced Lulinhia was going to become a aristocrats Ronaldhinio

hyped to death players that turned out to be something that i know of:Ronaldinho,R9,Kaka,Luis Fabiano,Adriano,Diego(kind of),robinho(like it or not he is a fantastic player who won important trophies,only problem is that he cant finish),Lucas Leiva,Thiago Silva,Pato and our last wonderkid was Hernanes.

Our only 2 really hyped players right now are Nerman and Lucas

Well yea i kinda had robihno and diego in mind as i wrote what i wrote.


And just few other kids thy were hyped up now hear nothin about.

But i didnt mean it in the sense that they most become massive failures, i ment most dont live up to the so called potential they have.

I mean basically what iv heard about neymar so far from reports or jsut people in general they make him sound like hes gonna be better than r9 which is impossible as he was the best striker everrrrrrr bar none !!

So yea im just curious is this kid really is the real deal and if u had a choice based on there talents right now who would u take??
