Neymar freestyle is very good, but who cares with his style if it can't produce any goal?

Barca at it's best!

Haka Ali hagam wobadin seku esta Kampoin kampoin ... I dont understand this strange language and voice

wow. i loved the part where i saw no highlights and no goals.

Growing up watching Maradona, I closed the book of the best footballer ever. Then came some great footballer ( Marco van basten, Zidane, Ronaldo , Ronaldinho ,...etc) but they were never to the level of Diego. Well until Messi came and then he shuffled the deck. First of all, I consider myself very blessed to be able to watch Messi play, he is truly a complete player in every sense of the word. Most of the greats, are either a great goal scorers, dribblers, or both. In the case of Messi, he is a great scorer, dribbler and best of all , a fantastic passer ( assists) which you can't say of other greats. His splitting passes are absolutely out of this world and that's to me where he is sets himslef apart.
As for the world cup argument, remember in the 80s and early 90s , no offense to other teams, but truly only 4 teams were real contenders ( Brazil, Argentina, Germany and Italy ), there rest were not teams contending for the cup. Argentina was a great team, and when Maradona was added they had the X-factor ( the differentiator ).
Right now, Argentina is not considered a real contender with emergence of other good teams ( spain, netherlands, england, ...).
On the other hands, one thing that Maradona did which was fantastic , is taking a weak Napoli club from being a doormat to brilliance, but that doesn't take anything out of Messi.

Again, I feel blessed to be able to watch the magic of soccer through the current crop of top players, but after all is said and done, Messi in my books will be in the best 2 football players circle ever to lace them up.

Enough arguing , let's all go back to watch some magic football.

neymar is still a kid and finally got a taste of european football
He should get out of his comfort zone in brazil and take his game to a new level, he definitely has the talent and skill.
people should also stop hating on him, he played against the strongest team in the world, even cristiano ronaldo couldnt do anything against barca so give the guy a break. Neymar is quite humble and isnt like pele...pele is just continually talking out of his ass...id love to see how good pele would be in current football

- Great win. Loved to watch, Xavi's control on that pass before the first is awesome.

- It's not a treble. We have a double from last season, and three more titles since summer but "treble" includes domestic cup. Well, it could be worse.

- Cut Neymar some slack but not Pelé. Except for the haircut Neymar looks like a very decent kid to me, trying to build up a good career with the talent he knows he has, taking things as slowly as possible and staying in Brazil. And then there is this old moron who was an awesome player in his time but has no compunction about using a 19-year-old to make a (effing stupid) point about Brazil vs. Argentina, South America vs. Europe and blah. It's obvious to everyone, Neymar himself included, how much truth there is to this statement. What I find offensive about it is not that it's blatantly dumb but that Pelé knows too much about football and what this kind of hype can do to a young player to say sh#t like that before such an important match. But dude always puts his ego first.

Should Barcelona claim treble winner bcz of 2 Super Cup and World Club Cup they got this year?

First thing you don't want to do when playing against barca, don't wear a white uniform. Barca as a special treatment for teams that wear white uniform.

Messi is actually the best player in the world but not the best ever!

Hey! I thought Kim Jon IL died today? And therte he is, giving medals to the players, You just cant stop him can ya?

i hate myself for hating messi so much coz damn he's a like a machineeeeeee

I don't know why people actually thought santos had a chance against barcelona. well actually I do know, its because they don't watch south american football. all they do is read the retarted papers that talk about this young brasilian kid every freaking day "neymar's new baby, Neymar's new hair style, Neymar's new way of taking a s**t." they totally blew him out of proportion. reality is Santos is not the best South American team. they struggled through the entire cup (libertadores) and they were very lucky on the last 4 games. but what I also have to accept is that the only reason they barely won those games is Neymar. the kid is out of this world. I know that if he goes to Europe within a few months he will become one of the best in the world...

After the match it was clear Neymar was hut emotionally (felt bad for the poor guy). Cesc, iniesta, xavi+messi pretty much made santos look like a high school soccer team. Neymar needs to come to the epl, arsenal preferred were he can get use to tough matches.

To those of you saying this "proves" Messi is far better than Neymar, you're being ridiculous. If they had swapped places for this match, I'm not too sure the scoreline would have been very different. Barcelona has one of the strongest--probably the strongest--midfields in the world. To draw conclusions about a player based on his team's performance ignores the fact that a "team" consists of eleven players, not just the one.
Just look at Messi with Argentina.
