This is something people neglect when talking about him. I am sure he was the most fouled player at the world cup even though he only played up to the quarters and if you watched the games they were genuine foulsZin 'messiah' Zimmer said:malg said:Neymar really is an unlikeable little c**t.
He really is, and yet he does take an obscene amount of heavy challenges.
That amount consistently could see his career cut short

They have a match vs Hong Kong on tuesday..blueparrot said:Is this Argentinas' only game this week ?
If he stopped screaming and rolling, less people would kick him. Also, he gets a lot of fouls through just not even attempting to carry on. Messi and Aguero get kicked just as often, yet just don't see every kick as a reason to throw themselves in the air, they are more interested in actually just carrying on instead. I'm pretty sure Ashley Young was the most fouled player in the premier league a couple of years ago, which should nicely sum up what that stat is all about.supercrystal7 said:This is something people neglect when talking about him.

I really thought would have learned after that Zuniga incident in the WC,but no i see he hasn't changed a bit,take for ex players like aguero and david silva,they try to stay on their feet most of the times when they should have gone down,neymar is just the exact opposite,he.must have got talent,but there is a reason why so many dislike him,as for best player i think he has a long way to go for that,not good enough right now and i doubt he will ever be hailed as the best..supercrystal7 said:To be fair he is not really diving, but faking injury and play acting. I know some people consider them the same thing, but I don't. He actually is being fouled most of the time, but exaggerates the pain and rolls about. I think his time is coming up to be the best player in the world: Neymar and Gotze.pikku said:Neymar and his endless dives,everytime i see him he is rolling around..

Something needs to be done about this. Putting their arms behind their backs then barging into him. The Dunga effect.

Lots of other great players have gone down easily.A bigger reason he gets fouled is, because he is very skillful, very fast and likes to commit defenders. Neymar is an amazing talent and whilst there are a few players above him virtually all of them apart from Messi( who is an old 27) will be 30 by the start of next season. Many dislike Neymar, but many love him too. I think some people are angry that he actually lives up to they hype.pikku said:I really thought would have learned after that Zuniga incident in the WC,but no i see he hasn't changed a bit,take for ex players like aguero and david silva,they try to stay on their feet most of the times when they should have gone down,neymar is just the exact opposite,he.must have got talent,but there is a reason why so many dislike him,as for best player i think he has a long way to go for that,not good enough right now and i doubt he will ever be hailed as the best..supercrystal7 said:To be fair he is not really diving, but faking injury and play acting.

Oi! In my defence I had been drinking before they asked me to referee and it's hard to referee and post on here at the same time.BigOscar said:Have they hired random people off the street to referee this game? They seem completely clueless

Brazillain version of Jack Wilshire.
Neymar is unbelievable for Brazil and IMO will be the best player in the world when Ronaldo declines.
Messi simply isn't at the level he was before and Ronaldo is quite clearly better than him now. Is it the tax case hanging over him? Was he rushed back from injury too quick 18 months ago? Was he played too much, too young? I don't know the reason, but Messi doesn't look the same player he was a few years ago.

I think those injuries last year have played a part in Messi's diminishing game but don't forget he has made 466 appearances and only just turned 27 in June, that for a lot of players is a careers worth of games.
He set standards that I may never see again in my lifetime and I am only 22, he is still world class though and guarantees plenty of goals and assists but the days of getting around 90 goals in a calendar year have gone in my opinion.
