@Certain He's 23, at the next World Cup he'll be 27 which is when most players are at their prime.

That's true, but what I meant was that Neymar also could be the best. (My understanding is that he'll be fine from this injury.)

Or maybe Romelu Lukaku will stop being an idiot and become the most dominant goal-scorer in the world, which he definitely has the potential to be. He, Kevin De Bruyne and Eden Hazard all should be top 20 players internationally by the next World Cup. Hell, Thomas Muller will be 28 by then.

I have my reservations that a breakout star like James Rodriguez, who did have a fine club season but ultimately has never been viewed on the level of these guys, is going to become the best in the world. Most of the guys who get the best-in-the-world tag are known commodities in their teens.
