Why Neymar Is the Best ??

World has been asking the question- who is the best player- for a long time. Now , it is time for a perfect answer. Neymar.

Neymar started with Brazilian club Santos and helped them to reach FIFA Club World Cup final. That opened his door to the Brazilian senior team without any delay. He responded to the given opportunity with a debut goal.

As you can see the stats, he is very deadly with his goal strike rate. Neymar is also assists well for team mates to score. His ability to dribble and score with both legs makes him a defender's nightmare, while Messi is weak with his right foot. Christiano Ronaldo's pace is completely depending on his right foot movement. We saw him being trapped in the UEFA Champions League final against Athletico Madrid.

Scored in the Debut for the Senior Team
2011- South american footballer of the year
2011 - FIFA Puskas Award
2011- Bronze Ball, FIFA Club World Cup
2012 -South american footballer of the year
2013- Golden Ball- Confederations Cup.
Played a leading role in winning Confederations Cup-203. (Beat Spain 3-0).
2012- Olympics Runners Up.



Messi and Ronaldo are really big success in the club formats. But, clubs are always filled with handpicked players like Xavi and Iniesta in Barcelona and Modric and De Maria in Real.

Xavi and Iniesta are well known for their ability to hold the ball in their possession and create goal opportunities. Messi gets lots of support to score while playing with them. But, he is weaker without their support. That's what happens when he plays for Argentina. National team success makes a player complete. He should succeed in that way too, like his predecessor Maradona, to earn better name from critics. Who can forget that 1986 World Cup?

Argentina have no Confederations cup, no Copa America or World cup success in his career, just an Olympic Gold medal (2008) and runners up in Copa (2007). With Messi becoming successful in his National jersey, Argentina will come up with more championship wins.

2004- EURO Cup Runners Up
2006- Fourth Place in FIFA World Cup.
2012- EURO Semi Finals.


Ronaldo is a better player than Messi with more strike rate. As another Ronaldo from Brazil came and put a bench mark for him, he is below par now. His international success limits to Runners up spot in 2004, third place in 2012 Euros and a 4th place finish in FIFA World cup 2006 edition.
