Al-Hilal’s Brazilian star selects the best players in his eyes for his ideal team
Brazilian football superstar Neymar recently shared his ideal five-on-five team lineup. As a key player in the Brazilian national team, Neymar has extensive experience at the highest level and his knowledge of the game allows him to create a balanced team that can take on any challenge.
In goal, Neymar has chosen his compatriot Júlio César, a former goalkeeper for Brazil and Inter Milan in particular. Renowned for his reflexes and his great size, Júlio César would bring stability and serenity to the rearguard. In central defense, it is Thiago Silva, the captain of Fluminense who is selected. Physically powerful and an excellent ball returner, Thiago Silva would form with Júlio César a solid defense on which to rely.
In midfield, Neymar has chosen Lionel Messi, the eight-time Argentinian Ballon d’Or winner and FC Barcelona legend. The technical complicity and combinations between the two men work wonders on the pitch. Partnered with Messi is Luis Suárez, the elusive Uruguayan striker and Messi’s former teammate at Barca. Their fantastic understanding in front of goal would wreak havoc.
Finally, in attack, Neymar naturally chose to select himself. A genius of Brazilian football, he would bring speed, dribbling and finishing to this team. His connection with Messi and Suarez would wreak havoc in front of goal. With such players, Neymar would have formed a formidable dream team, capable of imposing itself against any formation in the world, even five against five.
