Neymar Swiftly Responds to Cani's 'He'll Have Problems' Assertion
Neymar hears you, Cani, he just doesn't appear to care.
Barcelona knocked Atletico Madrid out of the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, and the Brazilian Neymar starred, scoring two wonderful goals for the Catalans.
After the match, Atletico midfielder Cani was unimpressed with Neymar's actions on the pitch.
"(Neymar) will have problems for his whole career," he said, via Goal. "Neymar has a style of play—one day he'll have a problem as he did today, but if he likes it...that's the way he plays.
Cani was likely referring to a half-time spat between Neymar and Fernando Torres as the teams trudged off the pitch.
"And as the first half ends, Neymar & Torres get into it and almost fight #ATMFCB https://t.co/7WNY6NgsKn

Gabi, also, voiced his opinion on Neymar's oft-theatrical style of play (via Goal)
"He's got an odd way of playing, particularly when he's winning," he said. "He's always making gestures on the field, especially when he's in front.
"Nobody likes to lose and these things irritate you."
Neymar was hardly fazed by the words, though, and posted a picture of himself on Instagram responding with his hand to his ear and the caption (translated by Talking Baws), "No one is obliged to like anyone, but there is a thing called respect."
