Delhi Dynamos’ newly-appointed player-manager Roberto Carlos on Thursday acknowledged the brilliance of leading world footballing duo of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo but rated compatriot Neymar as currently the best exponent of the “beautiful game.” The former Real Madrid star defender said both Messi and Ronaldo have their individual attributes to marvel on but Neymar has the potential to overtake the duo in the coming days.
“Messi and Ronaldo are both great players. But for me, Neymar is the best. I believe soon he will become the best. He is very talented and has a bright future,” the left-back said. The 42-year-old former Brazil star also said that Messi is at present “a little ahead of Cristiano” because of the contrast in the playing styles of their respective Spanish clubs — FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. “Barcelona play around Messi.
Their game is revolved around Messi to get the best out of him. But in case of Real Madrid, it is different. They don’t only concentrate on Cristiano with several very good players like Karim Benzema, Luka Modric, Marcelo, contributing. But Cristiano is still a top player.”
