Name: Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior



INFO: (Outdate)

Spoiler: show

After joining the squad in 2003, Neymar eventually made his Santos debut against Oeste on 7 March 2009 in a 2-1 win at the age of 17, Neymar's next appearance was against Mogi Mirim a week later, during which he scored his first goal for Santos. On 11 April 2009, in the 2009 Campeonato Paulista semi-final first leg against Palmeiras, Neymar scored the decisive goal in a 2-1 win at Estádio Vila Belmiro. In the final however, Neymar failed to perform to his full ability, and Santos crashed out to Corinthians in a 4-2 aggregate loss.

Neymar's performances for Santos and his likeliness to Brazilian idols such as Robinho and Pelé, the former who he currently plays alongside at Santos, began to attract interest from many clubs such as Manchester United, Internazionale, Real Madrid, and Manchester City, with Real Madrid even going as far as to claim that they had signed a pre-contract agreement with Neymar's agent, Wagner Ribeiro, which Santos fervently denied. Following this, Santos slapped an asking price of €30 million on the player's head, and tied Neymar down to a new contract lasting until December 2014. Neymar himself said he didn't think it was time to leave Santos, and that he was only focused on the club.

On 15 April 2010, Neymar scored 5 goals for Santos in a 8-1 routing of Guarani in the round of 16 of the Brazilian Cup. Following the 2010 Campeonato Paulista in which Neymar scored 14 goals in 19 games, the club were crowned champions after a 5-5 aggregate win over Santo André in the finals. Neymar was given the award for the best player, due to his brilliant performances in the competition. His debut in NT was in August in a 2-0 victory against USA, Neymar also scored the oppening goal. In 2010 he scored 36 goals in 54 games.

In 2011 he was called to play Sulamericano Sub-20 in Peru.

That's bull age doesn't matter is he's talented. Should at 30 year old who has a very bad positional sense be above a 75 because he's more experience? :\

[Fiddy]

yeah, but anyway i still think he still overrated in some points, but come on he is only 18 we shouldn't be that "generous" with him.

[renatomm]

ATT and SA aren't that high,
and i think young players have more AGI cause they're weaker and smaller.

I think too. SA, ST and ATT is overrated.

[tamaguchi_japa]

ok, so what do u guys suggest? but imo he isn't over, dont matter if he have 18 or 30. he is much better than many 25 years old players in brazil.

[Fiddy]

well, i suggest ATT and SA @ 78-79 MAX!, ST @ 79-80 and Agility @ 89 and i'd reduce Response by one, there is no way he is as sharp as Pato.
with that, he'll look better.

[Oswaldo]

Bojan of Barça has ATT 80, SA 80, ST 82 since the last year, when he was still 18. Yes, he plays for Barça not Santos, but he didn't score or show a performance as Neymar did. About agility,it is a natural feature of the body not a skill that improves with experience. At the opposite, youngsters usually are more agile than the elder. Some players keep it as the same level but improves in other aspects such as DA & TEC. So they can use their agility more effeciently,and therfore can be considered more agile than before, like the case of Messi.

yes, Bojan plays in Lal Liga and in Barça, do u think that Neymar would prove as much as he did in brasil if he was in spain ? hell no ? he'd keep a ratio of 1 (1 game 1 goal) ? fuck no ? but i'd imagine Bojan in brasil, he'll do a great season, besides dnt forget, in Barça he has big calibre players ahead of him, but whenever he plays, he plays well, and usually scores

[Oswaldo]

but If Neymar keeps the same great ratio in Spain he will deserve at least 83 SA 85 ST.

[renatomm]

i really doubt Bojan would have a better season than Neymar if he was in Santos in Neymar's place.

[tamaguchi_japa]

well i made him comparing with Robinho. but u suggested it based on what? do u suggested it just to be fit? how many neymar games have u watched? because if u watch any neymar game, or even his best moments, SA 78 is a joke, if he deserve 78, nobody here in brazil deserve more than 80. because he is one of the best player in brazil in 1-on-1 against the keeper, and he is this great because he can place his shots where the keeper couldn't caught.

imo is better to wait a little bit before any decrease in this stats, this year im sure he'll be on NT, and we'll be able to see him in a international level

but i insist about one thing, dont be conservative with a player just because he is 18 or 19. Pato have the same set he have now since he was here in brazil, and neymar shocked us more than pato schoked in 2007.

about goal scoring, Neymar scored 28 goals in 30 games (0,93 goal per game) and Robinho have done 11 goals in 17 games (0,64 goal per game). what do u have to say about it? is robinho overrated too? i dont think. and this statistics isn't from wikipedia, is from Santos official web site

[squallzinn]

Particulary I'm not rating him based on his age. I think he just didn't impressed anyone in these abilities. I saw some of his matches and the main reason of all his goals is his speed, agility and dribbling skill. Even in that video we can notice he mainly scores inside the box, alone (after clear the defensors and gk sometimes), and with a great angle. In PES in these situation even with 75 in SA he would score.

I would go with:

ATT: 79
SA: 78
ST: 80

It's his first year in great form. Problaby he will upgrade his skills until the end of the season.

IMO statistics we can't measure the abilities of a player. There are a serie of facts who help him to score 28 goals in 30 match, The high level of all the team in the beggining of the season is one of it.

We have to analyze the capacity of the player. Robinho proved he can score in some situation that Neymar doesn't prove or have a change to show us he can do it.

[Fiddy]

squallzinn said evrythin...totally agree.

[renatomm]

Even in that video we can notice he mainly scores inside the box, alone (after clear the defensors and gk sometimes), and with a great angle.

that's when his SA appears, when he doesn't clear the GK,
when he gets face to face with the GK he places the ball really well,
lots of strikers gets face to face and misses the goal.

In PES in these situation even with 75 in SA he would score.

if were gonna do like that, than probably half of the strikers in Brazillian League are gonna get lower than 75 in SA.

and one more thing, Hernanes has SA: 79, i don't know if Neymar is below him

[squallzinn]

The reason for all these strikes miss the goal is the lack of the others abilities like technique, DA, speed. Without these abilities it difficult to a player get the right timming to score.

if were gonna do like that, than probably half of the strikers in Brazillian League are gonna get lower than 75 in SA.

and one more thing, Hernanes has SA: 79, i don't know if Neymar is below him

Hernanes is better than Neymar in SA and ST. Check some Hernanes videos and see the incredible goals he scored.

don't agree with that, most of Hernanes' goals is because of his SP,
he can place the ball well with great power,
but Neymar place better, but much weaker

[Ajacied_Breda1]

It's funny to see people questioning these numbers because of his age, when he's clearly outperforming other players that are double his age or in the best years of their life.

nothing more to say. i hate people that say to be conservative with a player just because of his age. IMO neymar stats is pretty realistic. and i'll only update if we have more agrees than disagree, because until now we have only Fiddy and squall agreeing on it.

[tamaguchi_japa]

sorry but i dont think he needs a raise in passing or DA and shoting, but about stars, i would like to see what people think about Side, and i disagree with 1-touch, he dont do 1-touch passes or shots enough to warrant a star
