Unpopular opinion - Gareth Bale was better than Neymar in their prime

[Deleted member 115294]

Bale was such a beast in his prime, literally a left footed faster Ronaldo but with worse dribbling, dont think Neymar was better even with his god given talent for dribbling and feeling for the ball.

Both are hyped up, but Neymar was lucky to be in the same team as Messi. Bale was lucky to win UCLs with Real

His career after those 1 or 2 seasons is nothing to write home about. Neymar was part of a very deadly trio but on his own he ia not a game changer. Both had some great seasons but not very consistent. Bale did have speed but Neymar was a midfield delight
