Despite coaching players like Vinicius or Rodrygo, Tite's explanation on why Neymar and Ronaldo are the best

To some, he failed to live up to expectations, but to others, he is one of the greatest football players of all time who has never won the Ballon d'Or award. He has also never won the FIFA World Cup with Brazil, which is something the Brazilian fans believed he could achieve due to his talent on the pitch. Many football fans believed that his career could've been better if he had joined PSG in the summer of 2017. Despite this controversial move, Neymar still delivered special moments on the pitch that will be remembered by many football and Brazilian fans. Former Brazil national team manager Tite spoke about Neymar and gave him huge praise that puts him among one of the greatest players of all time. When Tite was asked who was the best player he had ever coached, the Brazilian manager said, "The best players I have ever coached are Neymar and Ronaldo [Nazario]. There is no one like them at all."

Tite also got to coach Vinicius Jr. and Rodyrgo, who are seen as the future of Brazilian football. He did not pick them as the two are still fairly young in their careers. The two are stars for Real Madrid and have the potential to help Brazil win their 6th World Cup in its history. He still named Neymar since he is naturally gifted and impressed with him in the two World Cups they worked together, which were the 2018 World Cup in Russia and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

In the two World Cups under Tite, Brazil was eliminated in the quarterfinals. In the 2018 World Cup, Brazil lost 2-1 against Belgium. In 2022, Brazil drew 2-2 against Croatia but lost 4-2 on penalties. Neymar played 54 matches under Tite at the Brazilian national team. Neymar scored 31 goals and provided 33 assists under Tite, which led to him becoming the top goalscorer in the Brazilian national team.
