Question of the Day: Can Neymar step in for Messi???

Neymar has hit the ground running for Barcelona since his blockbuster move from Santos in the summer, showing the talent and ability that made him one of the most sought after players in recent years. Blaugrana boss Tata Martino had always insisted that they would be patient with their new signing and slowly integrate him into life at the Camp Nou.
However, it seems that the honeymoon period will end earlier than anticipated after news broke that club talisman Lionel Messi will be ruled out of action for up to two months with a hamstring injury. This leaves the Catalan giants in somewhat of a conundrum with no immediate backup to the Argentine, as no one can fill in at the much vaunted false nine role as effectively as Messi. More than likely, Cesc Fabregas will be asked to fill in but with the false nine’s effect likely to be diminished, the onus will be on the likes of Neymar to perform in Messi’s absence. The good news for Barcelona supporters though, is that the Brazilian looks ready to step up a gear and fill the void left by his team-mate. He has scored four goals and made six assists. Can he make the Messi impact???
