#2 Neymar Jr (Paris Saint-Germain)

Paris Saint-Germain v RSC Anderlecht - UEFA Champions League
The world's most expensive player has been a success

The golden boy of Brazilian football and the one player who is being tipped to break the Lionel Messi-Cristiano Ronaldo duopoly, Neymar has been exceptional since his move to Paris.

He has grown in leaps and bounds since he made his groundbreaking move to Barcelona at the age of 21 and formed one leg of the famed MSN striking trident of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and himself.

PSG broke the bank for Neymar in a world record deal during the summer transfer window and the Brazilian international has not wasted any time in showing why PSG paid €222 million for his signature.

Neymar has scored 11 times and assisted 9 more in the Ligue 1 this season. Given the freedom to play anywhere he wants like Messi has at Barca, he has created 55 chances in the league. He was brilliant in the Champions League as well with 6 goals and 3 assists in 6 group stage games.

Neymar stats:

Appearances - 20

Goals - 17

Assists - 12
