Time to apply some painkillers after the Wilson discussion...?
You said he’s done nothing special, it’s the bit I put in bold.
I’ll leave you to it bud, you seem to be taking things quite personally. But before I do I will say in particular, the bit about PSG winning 4 titles before him and Barca winning titles without him so he can’t have had much of an impact is a special level of nonsense. He can only influence teams when he plays for them, which he very obviously has. You can think he’s a spoilt, diving, cry baby little twat because he is. But to suggest he’s done nothing special in his career is just silly.
It's not as far from the truth as you've been making out at all. He can make an impact only for the team he plays for, agreed - but the teams he has been playing for want something more than their League wins for a reason. They've been winning their Leagues at a canter in most years, there is a reason why both Barca and PSG have been spending massively despite winning their leagues. Their aim has always to win the CL and be a force there.
How many times has he been able to help both these sides do that? Albeit, Barca did win once to which I did give him the credit, but they've not been able to maintain challenging consistently and he has not been able to lift PSG to that level in CL at all. I'd let that go if he had helped his team challenge at that level consistently at some point of time, but he hasn't ever. For a player of his reputation and in your words 'that level, those transfer fees, those stats, those honours', what he has been doing is underwhelming at both club and international level. I'd like to hear your thoughts (rather than try to get around my points) on how he has justified all that, and therefore, has been 'special'.
The fact that Neymar himself wants to move up & down is an indication he himself isn't satisfied with what he been doing and/or what has been going on. Messi & Suarez have outshone him at Barca, while he has not even been the 3rd best player in the world for a long while now, let alone compete with Messi and Ronaldo. For the hype, you'd expect him to be at least the 3rd best player in the world. It's not even clear whether he's PSG's best player now, with the rise of Mbappe.
When people talk of Brazilian greats of the last couple of decades, one would think Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Cafu, Carlos etc. who have all made a significant impact to their clubs and to their national teams in different degrees. You don't think Neymar and I believe he has a long way to reach that level. I know he isn't done yet, but it isn't going in the right direction. Now, if you believe that he has reached that level, let's agree to disagree mate.
