The Brazilian young talent Neymar joined the Spanish giants Barcelona .This super club is already home to the world's best player, Leo Messi, and his equally skilled compatriots, Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta. Together, this trio of world-class, unselfish players will create an offense that will be a force to be reckoned with.Stylistically, Xavi, Messi, and Iniesta are cut from the same cloth. The three have been signed to Barcelona since their pre-teen years, when they studied at the club's private football academy for exceptional players, La Masia. This exclusive institution teaches the finer points of aggressive, team play, and the foundations of the Tiki-taka, the one-touch passing style. These three former prodigies grew up playing together. They carefully developed a habit of passing and moving with the understanding of a collective mind. They flick the ball back and forth in triangles like a pinball when they really get going.
Neymar will have to adapt to the style of Barcelona, which is perhaps the point of his move. Real Madrid, the wealthy rivals of Barcelona, continuously made more expensive offers at the super talent. Neymar's refusal could best be explained by his desire to learn the team game from the best teachers in Europe, rather than joining Madrid. Maybe Neymar simply did not want to compete for the same position on the field as Cristiano Ronaldo.
