Comparing some of the world's best: Neymar vs. Ronaldo

In this post I will be discussing two of the best players in the world today. Brazil's 20-year-old prodigy Neymar, and Portugal's tried and true goal producer Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo has long been considered one of the best players in the world, while Neymar has only burst onto the seen these last couple of years. One of Neymar's main advocates is a former player who is considered by many to be the best player ever, Pele.

Neymar is the player at the top of the page with the mohawk into those bizarre braid/ponytail things. While it's very common for young players to want to have something to separate them from the rest of the players, Neymar would've been better off just letting his play do all of it. Someone who Pele described as the best soccer player on the planet doesn't need to rely on ridiculous hair to capture the attention of very devout soccer fans.

Ronaldo is the player on the right with the bizarre highlighted hair and shaved sides. Yes, that's right, today we have two bad haircuts. While at least Neymar has the scapegoat of being you for his ridiculous hair, Ronaldo has been around for years and has no excuse for not knowing any better. The only thing his hair even seems comparable is a miscolored/misshapen artichoke.
