Darren Lewis has hit out at Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar, insisting that he is not a Brazilian legend.
Neymar has divided opinion with his antics on and off the pitch.
Lewis believes Neymar has not lived up to expectations in his career so far.
“He’s not a legend, for me. He’s scored some good goals; he has been a good player.
“Listen, I have seen Brazilian footballers since 1982. I have seen Socrates, Eder, Falcao, Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho. I can’t recall many. … or as many moments of genius from Neymar as I can from Romario, Bebeto, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo.
“So many others, even Juninho. I think Neymar has always had a huge amount of pressure on him, and I’m not necessarily sure he’s lived up to that pressure,” he said.
