Brazil star Neymar laughs off claims by Socceroos' striker Archie Thompson that he is overrated Take a look at some of the superstars who will line up for Brazil in their friendly against Australia. BRAZIL star Neymar has laughed off claims by Socceroos' striker Archie Thompson that he is overrated. Thompson earlier raised the eyebrows of local media by saying the Barcelona forward was "not as good as people say" and declaring Chelsea midfielder Oscar a better player. When asked about the comments during a press conference, Neymar replied with a smile: "What's his name?" He can say what he likes. I don't know him so I can't say anything good or bad. I hope he plays well but that our team beats his on Saturday. Neymar has laughed off Archie Thompson's claims he is overrated. Thompson's remarks also drew a wry smile from the normally taciturn Oscar. "I'm very happy for that comment," the 21-year-old said. It's nice to have that recognition for the work I've put in for Chelsea and the national team. The most important thing is winning and being able to contribute the best I can. Neymar and Oscar stressed they expected the Socceroos to provide stern opposition during their friendly at the Mane Garrincha stadium on Sunday morning (EST). Oscar said he was looking forward to confronting Chelsea teammate Mark Schwarzer. "They have a very strong team, physically there are going to be a test," Oscar said. I have spoken about the game with him (Schwarzer) and we've had a bit of a laugh. He is a great player and we know it's going to be very difficult to put the ball past him. We have to work hard and find ways to combat their defence. We know Australia are going to mark tightly, particularly in the centre of defence, which means we might have to play wider to create space. Earlier, Schwarzer revealed the friendly had been a regular topic of conversation in recent weeks with his Blues' Brazilian teammates David Luiz, Ramires and Oscar. "We've had a bit of banter, particular with David Luiz," Schwarzer said. He's a bit of a joker as well so we've had a bit of a joke about it and he's given me a bit of stick. You know you're up against one of best teams on the planet. They lost their last game [1-0 to Switzerland last month] and it's not often they lose two in a row. It [September 7] is their national day as well. There's going to be a lot of pride of stake for them and they are going to have high expectations to do well.
