Mourinho: Ibra had a point to prove Neymar also says he wouldn’t have Gareth Bale or Karim Benzema in his side, if he had the choice, but would like to play alongside close friend Marcelo. Asked by CNN if he could pinch one name from his arch-rivals, Neymar replied: “I would pick Marcelo. “Why? Because he is my friend! Not even Cristiano? No, I would pick Marcelo. “I wouldn’t say which the best trio was because I don’t like to....
The 18-year-old forward has opted to head for Scotland during the winter transfer window after seeing his path to first-team football in France blocked by a star-studded array of attacking talent. Brazil international Neymar is one of several proven performers on the books at Parc des Princes, with the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Edinson Cavani, Angel di Maria and Julian Draxler forming part of the supporting cast.

Neymar signed a new contract at Barca in October that will keep him at the club until 2021 but he has never ruled out the prospect of a move back to the Brasileirao before he retires. Speaking after a charity match organised by Brazil great Zico on Wednesday, he says it would be tough to turn down the chance to play every week at the famous Maracana stadium....

In an interview published on Friday, the Brazil and Paris Saint-Germain striker said treatment has worked “but there is always that fear of it (the injury) coming back.” “I need to lose that fear as quickly as possible to arrive at the World Cup at my best,” Neymar said in an interview on Zico’s YouTube channel. “In the beginning we are hesitant about making the complete movement.” He cracked the fifth metatarsal that connects to the little toe in his right foot, and a week later, on March 3, he underwent surgery in Brazil....
Pele criticised Neymar’s antics at Russia 2018 but the former Barcelona star is closing in on the three-time World Cup winner’s position as Brazil’s record goalscorer.

The Sully kids are undoubtedly the driving force behind the film, and will presumably be taking over as main characters as they age into adults, but their story shouldn’t edge out Neytiri from the narrative. Her role is one of the series’ most fascinating, and Saldaña’s performance one of the most compelling. Her absence makes one wonder why she wasn’t utilized much in Avatar: The Way of Water.

Sara Blackwell, the lawyer who represents former New Orleans Saints cheerleader Bailey Davis and former Miami Dolphins cheerleader Kristan Ware, sent a unique proposal last month saying the cheerleaders will settle for $1 each if the league agrees to meet with the group of cheerleaders.
