for brazilians, neymar is not needed in the team, there are even people from brazil who think they play better without neymar, brazil has many good players, so they don't just depend on one or two players, they have so many players that it would be enough to make team A, B, C and D, but we will see if they will do well even without neymar, as the next games are not against very strong teams they have chances of winning, the question is if they will win easily or they will have difficulties to win the next 2 games, in my opinion brazil is the main candidate to win the world cup
Anyone that says that Brazil doesn't need Neymar or Brazil plays better than Neymar does not know football. They don't know the role of Neymar in any team. All those openings Brazilians see and run during the match are all created by Neymar.
Neymar is the only Brazilian player that has the ability to move the ball from the midfield to the attack. When Neymar moves with football, he moves with 3 to 4 opponents, this creates chances for other players to exploit.
The Brazilian National team coaches and personnels worship him as a King. They know why.
If you think that Neymar is not important to Brazil what Germany did to Brizil will repeat itself.
