Though he hasnt lived up to his potential since going to PSG, it feels like people forgot that they played the CL-final last year, with Neymar playing an important part in them getting there.

Though, delivering in one CL-campaign out of four isnt good enough(injuries also plays a part).

I think injuries destroyed him, he is still god but nothing compared to his peak years between 2015-2018.

He did get to the final but hardly by playing the best teams in europe. Dortmund, Atalanta and Leipzig. Yes, you can only beat who you face but prior to this relatively easy run PSG and neymar have been getting knocked out early on when against strong opposition.

And not to forget his last knockout goal was in 2017 against PSG !!!

There is element of luck in a CL.
If you try for a few years in a row, eventually you will win one tough tie, have an easy draw in the next round and you are already in semis.

In the last 7-8 years, any semidecent team reached CL final at least once:
Spain: Real, Barca, Atletico
EPL: City, Liverpool, Tottenham, maybe even Chelsea tonight
Germany: Bayern
France: Psg
Italy: Juventus

Out of top10-12 clubs in Europe, only Man Utd hasn't reached a final from 2015-2022.

So, I wouldn't rate reaching CL final that much. Everyone will reach it eventually if they keep trying for 5-10 years in a row.

He's maintained his fitness longer than Ronaldinho. I take much of this party boy talk is being played up and by Neymar as well. Ronaldinho on other hand was genuine party guy, before social network shanamigans and all.
