England are a one-man team
Last Updated: 06th February 2013
NEYMAR says England have no chance of winning the World Cup — because they are a one-team team.
The Brazil superstar claims Wayne Rooney is Three Lions’ ONLY matchwinner.
Ahead of tonight’s Wembley friendly to celebrate the FA’s 150th anniversary, Neymar said: “England are a good team with some very good players — but I don’t look at them as one of our main rivals for the World Cup.
“Maybe they rely too much on Rooney — once you look past him you don’t see an obvious player who can win them a match. But Brazil have got many players who can.
“England have players to do well — but do I think they have the same quality as Spain and Argentina? No.
“Look at Argentina. If Messi is not having a great game they still have Aguero and Tevez.
“And with Spain, if Iniesta is having an off day, they have got Xavi and Villa.”
Chelsea, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Paris St Germain are all chasing £50million-rated Neymar, who celebrated his 21st birthday yesterday.
But he insists he is not even thinking about a move to Europe while all his efforts are geared into helping Brazil win the World Cup in their own backyard next year.

Neymar said: “A lot of things have been written about my future but they cannot be true because no decision has been made.
“I’m happy at Santos now and I’m not even thinking about leaving.
“When the time comes I’ll consider all offers from the big European clubs but talk I have already committed is wrong.

“It’s nice when I hear top players saying I’ll be the world’s best player and I’ve got the talent.
“But it’s important to stay humble so I need to carry on working hard and learning.
“Everyone in the Brazil squad loves having Luiz Felipe Scolari as our coach. We all respect him and he’s already coming up with new ideas.
“And he’s clear that only winning the World Cup will do next year.”
