Jason Cundy has made yet another outrageous statement about Neymar, prompting Jamie O'Hara to storm out of the live TalkSPORT studio in anger.

Cundy, known for his blunt opinions, refuses to acknowledge that the Brazilian legend ranks among football's iconic players.

The former Chelsea defender previously claimed that Arsenal and England international Bukayo Saka is better than Neymar in his prime—a statement that nearly made O'Hara walk off then. Weeks later, Cundy's latest comments finally pushed O'Hara to his breaking point.

Cundy stated that if he were building a team, he would choose former Premier League striker Daniel Sturridge over Neymar.

The argument started with a calm discussion about legendary FIFA World Cup players, but tensions quickly escalated.

During TalkSPORT's FIFA World Cup show, O'Hara asked, "Cristiano Ronaldo—even if he were English and 41 years old—would you take him to the FIFA World Cup?"

Cundy replied, "He couldn't displace Harry Kane from the starting lineup... maybe he could compete with Ollie Watkins and Ivan Toney, hard to say. He still has goal-scoring ability, put him in the right attacking position and he'd be effective..."

O'Hara then mentioned several superstars at the FIFA World Cup: "We've seen many veterans still on the pitch—Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar played just days ago..."

As soon as Neymar was mentioned, Cundy immediately cut in: "Don't talk to me about Neymar, I don't want to discuss it.

I'll admit he's very skilled, but I really don't understand why he's so overrated. Don't compare him to Messi and Ronaldo, that's what really gets me."

O'Hara replied: "I'm talking about football legends at the FIFA World Cup. Neymar is clearly one of them—everyone will remember him."

Cundy countered: "He's not a legend. Rivaldo is a legend. I would never put Neymar in the same category as him...

The reason people remember him isn't because of extraordinary achievements. What major trophies has he actually won?!"

The argument intensified as O'Hara named other players for Cundy to compare with Neymar.

"Is Gary Lineker a legend?" O'Hara asked.

Cundy replied: "He's only an English legend, not a world-class legend.

Zidane is a legend, Dennis Bergkamp is too. If I were building a team, I'd choose Bergkamp over Neymar."

"Wayne Rooney—I'd pick him over Neymar too. If you asked me to choose between the two in their prime, I'd pick Rooney every single day.

Eden Hazard is also better than Neymar. I'd choose Hazard."

These words shocked O'Hara, who exclaimed, "Hazard? You're joking—Hazard better than Neymar? Your take on Neymar is absolutely ridiculous."

Cundy continued his list: "Cruyff is a legend, Zidane is a legend. Among the players I've watched, Rivaldo and Ronaldo are legends."

After Cundy finished speaking, O'Hara decided to test just how much his co-host dislikes Neymar, asking directly: "Marcus Rashford or Neymar—who would you pick?"

Cundy shot back: "I'd pick Rashford."

O'Hara looked incredulous: "Are you serious, Rashford?"

O'Hara then asked: "What about Daniel Sturridge?"

Cundy answered: "I'd pick Sturridge every day over anyone."

Upon hearing this, O'Hara immediately stood up from his seat and stormed out of the studio, muttering, "This is ridiculous."

He left the discussion table and walked through the door, leaving Cundy sitting alone in front of the camera, smirking and adding, "If you can't handle the answer, don't ask the question, haha."
