Neymar

The new challenge of playing in Ligue 1

How did Messi get all the plaudits for the comeback against PSG? He was criticised for being anonymous in both games.

Or do you mean Messi getting the plaudits for generally being Barca's best player?

I get he was “The Hero" in Barca’s comeback against PSG yet it looked as though Messi got all the plaudit

What are you talking about, everyone was raving about Neymar after that match, saying he was the only Barca player to play well and all.

I heard that the next day (morning after the game), Barca put up a big picture of Messi and generally made Neymar feel under-appreciated for his heroics the night before.

I of course could be as badly informed as a “Sky Sports Source”.

His dad wanted him to stay. Read the interview with Neymar on BBC. He's also good friends with Messi

It's very simple what drove this move.

504k a week after tax. Plus all other finance involved.

Do I blame him? Not a bit. He'd have been an idiot to turn this down.

Barca or PSG?
Ain't difficult is it!

Yep. He can try and spin whatever way he likes.

He went there first and foremost for the moolah.

He'll be the main man at PSG, have a team built around him as well as promises that PSG will continue to bring in the very best players around as they aim to win the CL in the next five years.

Obviously the money was a big factor but he'd probably earn more than that in China so it can't be the only reason Neymar chose to go to PSG.
