Neymar is currently the goal-scoring leader in La Liga with 14 goals. Dunga believes that Ney really took advantage of Messi's absence.
If Dunga was the man to decide who would win the Ballon d'Or, it would go to his fellow Brazilian Neymar. Even with the competition of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo seeming stronger, the manager believes it is Neymar who should win it this time.
"It's not that Ronaldo is not playing well, it's that he's not on the same form as last year. Messi was doing well, got injured, and Neymar is flying, he has taken up the role of team leader. I think it's his time", Dunga said.
