He's having a truly remarkable season.

NEYMAR BREAKS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ASSISTS RECORD FOR A SINGLE SEASON


Neymar Breaks Champions League Assists Record for a Single Season

Barcelona star Neymar broke the record for most UEFA Champions League assists in a single campaign as he set up Sergi Roberto's dramatic late goal during the Blaugrana's incredible 6-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.

He equalled the record of seven assists—based on Opta stats stretching back to 2003-04—held by former Barca team-mate Xavi, Mesut Ozil and Zlatan Ibrahimovic when he set up his seventh goal of the 2016-17 season against Celtic in November.

But with his assist for Barca's sixth goal against PSG, the 25-year-old now stands alone as the tournament's most prolific creator in one term, per Squawka Football:

Breh u want to go stat for stat? Hazard not fukking with Neymar at all dont let ur biase fool you.
Hazard himself don't want it, didn't he come out and say he wasn't a killer like Messi or Ronaldo he just prefers to play at his level and could never be the beast that those two are. He can be Robben/Ribery level though but that first tier is Messi/Ronaldo followed by Neymar and Suarez.

He can be lazy at times , playing in a demanding team at the level of Barca/Real/Bayern is a different case.Players like Isco,Douglas Costa,Ribery and James sometimes ride the bench whereas at Chelsea he knows that there isn't that much risk unless its extraordinary circumstances like last season where he seemed not interested at all.

So are we going to acknowledge NeyGOD as the best player in the world? Or Nah?
Considering he engineered the greatest comeback in history, he atleast better than Ronaldo.

No he's not the best. He needs to do what he did tonight consistently. Playing with Messi and Suarez he's going to always overshadowed, but he did his thing tonight. MSN all scored tonight. Can't say they didn't put in work.

You can tell though that Neymar was up to the challenge and was playing with all the confidence.
