Joey Barton has already told the Twitter world that he is not all too impressed by Brazilian youngster Neymar.
The Santos ace was again in action for A Selecao in a friendly against Russia at Stamford Bridge on Monday night and again he did not impress the Marseille loanee neither did the rest of the Brazil team apparently.

On Neymar he added:
But people should stop chatting pony. He isn't in the same stratosphere as the boy Messi and that Ronaldo fella... #neymarwatch#hype — Joseph Barton (@Joey7Barton) March 25, 2013
