He’s too quick and too fast so he gets fouled 10 times a game. He Overreacts but hes 99% of time actually fouled. Oh well, let’s have another 5 page discussion about how Neymar is a disgrace and ruining the sport.

People wondering why I don’t care about his antics is like asking Bruins fans why they don’t hate Marchand. I’d rather him not do the extra #### but I could care less cuz he always delivers in the Brasil shirt, Almost second in Brasil scoring by the age of 26 will make any Brasil fan tolerate his antics.
Honestly it's not like it's just Calgarypuck that is talking about it.

It's literally every soccer website, most media pundits, other forums that I frequent that have World Cup threads, it is everyone and they aren't just doing it because they have some bone to pick with Neymar. The only people defending him are other Brazilians and fans of the Brazilian national team.

The guy does get fouled a lot, and it's not that he goes down like's he's been murdered on every play, but he has made an absolute meal out of almost every foul he's taken at this world cup. It's one thing to go to ground easy - that happen's in every game, in every league around the world - but it's another thing when you have literally spent 14 minutes rolling around on the ground through 4 games. He's past the point of just exaggerating to draw fouls, he's now feigning injury to try and draw cards.

Great player but disgraceful play acting performance at this world cup and it's not even arguable at this point.
