Pele says Barcelona star Neymar has a habit of inviting fouls during games.
Pele has been close to Neymar since he was breaking through at Santos.
"He also had the same problem at Santos. I think he looks to create fouls and situations that aren't there. He has improved a lot in that aspect though because things are different in Europe," he told ESPN.
Pele added: "The World Cup is a tournament, it isn't just one game. Everybody expects him to win it for Brazil and that's very dangerous for him."
