In terms of skill, yes. Not to say that Cristiano is no talent and all hard work. He was the most expensive teenager ever when he joined United.
There's a bunch of similarities in their careers too. Both did well on a stacked team (Barcelona; SAF's United, Madrid), but couldn't hack it on worse ones (PSG, Juventus, modern United). And they were both floppers. If Neymar didn't exist CR7 would be the goat flopper.
But their paths diverged. Neymar cared more about money and his sister, while Cristiano went full statretard.
Overall, Neymar was more fun to watch. He did things that made you go WOW, that very few other players could do, if any. Cristiano was 'just' super efficient.
