  1. Football "purists" are just mad Neymar made his own decision to leave a giant in Barcelona for PSG. They assume it was solely money based. Having said that, Rooney's statement is true and was taken out of context by the idiots around him.

  2. 24:46 100% agreed

    Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo shaped the entire generation

    Players like Doue,Yamal,Musiala,Estevao all grew up wanting to be Neymar

    Similarly with slightly older guys
    Players like Mbappe , Vinicius Jr,Rodrygo, Kvaratskhelia, Szobozlai,Leao all grew up wanting to be Cristiano Ronaldo

  3. Sorry but Neymar's potential aint way higher than Hazard… Stop rewriting history… If Hazard did the exact same thing at Madrid as he did in Chelsea and never suffered injury, Hazard would never be compared to Salah Alexis Sanchez and will always be compared to Messi and Ronaldo and Neymar… Hazard maybe wasn't always at Neymar's level that's true but he was bro especially from 2018 Hazard was deemed the best player itw at one point… So wtf are you crapping that Hazard was never compared to Messi and Ronaldo…. For Mane and Salah I completely agree that they were never compared to Messi and Ronaldo but ppl nowadays making it seem like that was always the case but Hazard was bro… Just look at the talk shows and everyone at the time… Maybe you are just living under a rock

  4. 1:37 ā€œthe cristiano’s and the Messi’sā€ who EXACTLY are you even talking about bro stop just making every player plural because it genuinely makes no sense

  5. If people are questioning who wanted to be Wayne Rooney growing up you’re an even bigger casual than Wayne is. You clearly weren’t there from 05-13 RELAX

  6. >Peaked very early in his career
    >Always got overshadowed by his teammate
    >Always scammed in World cups
    >Not faithful to his wife
    >Not disciplined enough to be fit to play even at amateur level
    >Now an alcoholic washed up prick

    I am talking about Rooney not Neymar

  7. it's a Roy Keane things fellas. Guy never talked about things that happen on the pitch from a detailed point of view. Like ever? Saw his punditry, It’s always mentality, dressing room, putting in the ā€˜hard yards’ etc etc.

    A lot of shit, what he says is performative nonsense playing up to this persona for TV audiences.

  8. Neymar is magic, there’s only ever been 2 magical players I’ve seen in my lifetime and that’s Messi and Neymar. For me the difference between those two is likeability, availability and mentality. Messi trumps him on all three which is why he’s achieved so much more. Sure I wouldn’t say Ney is even near the same level in terms of his legacy in football. But raw talent? There has NEVER been a player better in the premier league than Neymar, there’s has NEVER been a better player is England’s history than Neymar. Who else has consistently ranked top 3 in the world for dribbling, passing, flair, decision making, vision and set pieces throughout his entire career until he started to get injured more at PSG. Comparing him to Mane is the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen.

  9. Rooney was right idk what folks are angry about, his point was that Neymar isn’t on Messi or Ronaldo’s level which is obvious lmao

  10. The whole point of the clip was debating the opinion that prime Neymar is better than every prime of every pl player. That’s definitely wrong. Prime Neymar is worse than at least one of:

    2003 Henry, 2004 Henry, 2008 Ronaldo, 2014 Suarez, 2018 Salah, 2023 haaland, 2025 Salah
    (I could add defenders but that’s not a good faith argument. For example you could argue 2019 van dijk was a higher peak than any Neymar year but it is impossible to compare)

    neymar’s legacy, meanwhile, is much greater than all of those others, save Ronaldo. Most young players today will have one of Messi, Ronaldo, or Neymar as their idol that they model their game after. Nowhere near as many will say the same about Salah, haaland, even Suarez and Henry. But we’re not talking about that, we’re just talking about him on the pitch, which while it was incredibly high I don’t think you can in good faith say he peaked higher than any of the above seasons.

  11. so x footballer can't say their opinion they felt that they said it. sooo what Neymar is not in my no 3 thats my opinion thats what I feel

  12. Neymar as talent we have never seen at first time but finally saw weakness in his game vulnerable to every team not talk league A france but UCL as man city fan i like my team to go vs Neymar team bcz not he is good player but make useless things that hampred the real chance. Neymar Let's not pretend his talent was not to be a serious player he came to the player that he dribbled passed again aand get worst decision, so it's not work in knockout and decided games. that make
    So as talent, ability, quality, he is the best he is the guy unfortunately he is not decided possesses and take easy challenges that not give him any attention.

  13. Just realized this…..most pundits have horrible takes on football, which i find ironic coz they played football…most of them arent insightful to listen to, we listen to them because they played football….but their takes are horrible

  14. Don't you think if anyone can say these takes is them cause they've been in these situations. They know what it takes to win. People now a days takes everything so literally. We in our daily life so many things and no one gives a damm. People losing sleep cause of rooney comments is what crazy to me.

  15. Neymar getting compared to mane is a privilege for neymar. Neymar is surely better than mane in football but other than that mane walks over him. I'll take mane over neymar in my football team. Its a team game never forget that.

  16. 24:49 To me, that is the greatest thing about Neymar, that few sportsmen are able to achieve. He is the hero of those bedtime stories your mum or dad used to tell you. He has inspired a generation of footballers that will define this sport for the next generation. He is the blueprint. And that to me, is the most beautiful thing about Neymar.

  17. Yamal wouldn’t have been talked about this highly if prime Neymar was playing in barca now.

    Dembele wouldn’t have won the balon dor if prime Neymar was playing now
