Neymar Watch

The neyssi chemistry though.

Better than Suarez.

Although robben and aguero have been phenomenal this season too, but when u add in NT performances the decision for the worlds 3rd best player becomes easy. Plus those other 2 have teams built around them mostly which cannot be said for neymar, adding to the fact that he doesnt take penalties or freekicks. Neymar has 19 goals in 20 starts and 24 games overall (0 pk, 0 fk) while aguero has 19 goals from 21 starts (7 penalties).

Since when is Bayern built around Robben?

Also you could easily make the argument that Neymar benefits from the fact that every team goes out to try and mark the **** out of Messi. Yes, Neymar has been great but I don't think he has surpassed Robben yet. Mentioning penalties when Aguero is the one who has earned almost all of them for City anyway is kind of silly.

The best thing about Nerman is his age. Lad is only 22. Whether Ronaldo or Robben are better right now I don't care. Because guess what. Ronaldo turns 30 next week and Robben is 31. The difference is already small as it is. Nerman scores regularly (pretty much 1 goal per game this season) and also in all big games (Real and Atletico multiple times, PSG home and away, on the intl. stage, you name it) with good enough overall play so you can't claim there is a huge gap between the 3 (only Messi is much more influential on a football pitch). Whatever small gap there is right now between Nerman and Robben or Ronaldo will vanish in the next 3 seasons anyway when Nerman will naturally become better and Robben and Ronaldo who are at their absolute peak right now will start to decline. I wouldn't trade Nerman for any player in the world. Very happy with the guy. Brazilians never fail at Barca. Even Douglas will come good, fss.

The only thing Douglas will become good at is snorting coke off Laporta's chest.

More useful than Vermaelen.

True Belgian's are boring pos.

Yeah, I wouldn't change Neymar for any player currently, he's playing great, and I see the front three just getting better and better.

Neymar has the same birthday as Ronaldo.

Well, then he is 23 soon but the argument remains the same.

Yeah Neymar is the future face of the sport for sure. He's got flair, talent and plays for one of the biggest clubs in the world. I'm pretty sure every team is envious of Barcelona for having him.

Hazard #1

Hazard isn't as marketable as Neymar. First he plays for Chelsea Already decreases his marketability. Then he doesn't score nearly enough goals.

To be the face of the sport, the player needs to be a marketing sensation as well as anything football related.

This. Hazard will never be the best player in the world simply because: 1-Nerman plays for Barca and Hazard for Chelsea 2-People are obsessed with stats more than anything else (see CR)

Hazard isn't better than him fullstop lol.

Inb4 Mole is a hater from delusional fanboys.

There is that too

My boy

The closest player to Messi in terms of talent atm.


Ganso ffs

Nerman

He really has been amazing this season. I agree with Bankz on him possibly being top 3, definitely top 5.

Hazard will win 2015 Balon d'Or because they won't make the same mistake they did in 2010 and 2013 and not award a player of a treble winning team.
Messi to get that 2nd spot as he has started the year returning to his best and CR7/Neuer/Cesc to battle for the 3rd.

I think the hate on Hazard is a bit much on this site, he is clearly one of the best players in the world, but Ballon d'Or? Especially now since Messi has gone back to full beast mode? I doubt it.

1 year avatar bet that Hazard won't win 2015 Balon D'or

Why not? This is not a WC/Euro year so his scrubs belgian teammates cannot ruin his reputation on the international stage.

All he has to do is lead us to the treble which is very likely.

Again, I like Hazard a lot but he wasn't even the best player on his team at the WC, or 'on the international stage' as you would put it (KdB was).

He's not even the Premier League's best player, forget the world's

Beside's, the last few years have proven its impossible to break this Messi/Ronaldo duopoly until they both reach the end of their careers.

What hate? Saying Neymar is better than him isn't really hate it's common sense.

No I wasn't referring to you specifically, just that there is quite a bit of hate on Hazard because of Gil that I've seen.
