Chelsea winger Pedro Neto continues to draw admiration for his skill and potential, with former Manchester United star Gary Neville singing his praises after an impressive performance against Arsenal on Sunday.
Neto’s equalizer in the 70th minute helped the Blues secure a crucial point, and Neville sees even more potential in the Portuguese international.
In a chat with Sky Sports, Neville described Neto as a “fantastic little winger,” and suggested that he could be an even greater threat to opponents if he believed more in his abilities to take on defenders. “Sometimes I just look at him and think, I wish you were more confident, I wish you had more belief, just went at players,” Neville said.
Neville highlighted how Neto’s dribbling skills could strike fear in any full-back if he chose to be more aggressive. “They would be frightened to death of you,” Neville added. “It seems sometimes he comes back and passes and makes it easy for the opposition full-back.”
As Chelsea fans, we’re already thrilled by Neto’s talent and contribution to the team, but hearing Neville’s analysis only heightens the excitement. If Neto channels that fearless, aggressive style Neville encourages, he could become an even more formidable force for the Blues. Here’s hoping we’ll see him dribbling past defenders and creating even more magical moments at Stamford Bridge.
