The former Barcelona hero rejects claims that the
young Brazilian forward could struggle at his new club due to his small
frame following the confirmation of his move from Santos.
Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup believes that Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has proven to new team-mate Neymar that size does not matter.
The
Brazilian recently completed a €57 million (£48.7m) move to Camp Nou
from Santos but there is a split of opinion over whether the 21-year-old
will be a success.
The 5ft 9in forward has been labelled as too small and thin by some
experts to succeed in Europe, criticism that has only intensified during
recent outings for Brazil.
