Seleção defender, Thiago Silva, feels that the Brazilian national team are on the up and that Neymar has been their saviour.
The 21 year old has spent nearly six months at new club Barcelona and has already impressed the doubters he had when moving to the Catalan club.
Neymar impressed the club’s heirachy after many brave performances in the Confederations Cup and Silva feels that Neymar has been fantastic for club and country.
“Neymar can save us. I had no doubt about his success in Barcelona, he has surprised the Spanish press. He brings a lot offensively and is a great player,” reports Telefoot.
Neymar persists to be Brazil’s performer and Silva belives that he will be able to save Brazil in times of need and is looking forward to attempting to win the Seleção’s sixth World Cup on home soil.
“There is not a day I wake up and do not think of the World Cup. This is a moment that is constantly in my head. Until the day of the final, it will be like this. The confidence in the national team has returned. The people believe again in the Selecao. This is a special purpose and it is a big responsibility.”
Brazil open their World Cup against Croatia in Sao Paulo at the Corinthians Arena in June.
