Neymar's talent has 'no limits'

Barcelona forward Neymar can be as good as he wants to be and will follow Lionel Messi in defining an era in soccer, his Barca and Brazil teammate Dani Alves predicted on Monday.

Neymar has reached new heights at Barca this season, his third with the Spanish and European champion, and was named on Monday along with Messi and Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo on the three-player shortlist for the 2015 FIFA Ballon d'Or award.

Neymar, 23, is the top scorer in La Liga this term with 12 goals in 11 appearances, with two more in five Champions League outings.
