Anderson defends Neymar
Anderson said: “The media in Brazil is very hard on Neymar. If Neymar went to any other national team, anyone, England, anyone, people would go crazy for him. The people don't understand what Neymar did for PSG. No one knew PSG before Neymar went there. If you take all the games Neymar played for PSG, it's ridiculous. He took the p*ss with the players!”
Anderson added: “It doesn’t matter, I will always defend him. Because I think Neymar is one of the most top players I saw play. The top, top players. Take all the generations, Brazilian national team. All the players. Neymar has been at the top.”
