Neymar, who replaced the injured Lionel Messi and played in the center of the attack in the match against "Valladolid," says he will return to his position as soon as Barcelona's leader recovers.
The newcomer of the Catalan club had a great game, contributing significantly to Xavi's goal, providing an assist to Alexis Sanchez, and finally scoring himself as Barcelona crushed the visitors from Valladolid 4-1 at their home stadium.
After the match, Neymar noted that he played in this position temporarily, only until L. Messi finishes healing his injury.
"That position belongs to Lionel. When he comes back, I will play again in my usual position on the left flank. Playing in the center was not completely new to me, as I have played in this position representing the Brazilian national team and Santos club. I just tried to show everything I am capable of on the field," shared the Brazilian with his impressions.
The Barcelona newcomer celebrated the team's success, with the striker praising Alexis Sanchez, who scored two goals against Valladolid: "I am satisfied with the performance of the whole team, and it is particularly pleasing that Alexis is understanding me better and better on the field."
This season, in 12 official matches for Barcelona, Neymar has scored 3 goals and provided 6 assists to his teammates.
