Neymar is still in the spotilght. The Brazilian does not come out of the criticism after the Champions League tie against Real Madrid, in which he came back replacing Di María. Neither that day he convinced on the pitch nor this weekend against Monaco. He is the big loser of the downward moment that the Parisian team is experiencing.
The journalist Daniel Riolo narrated in the microphones in France the difficult, even extreme situation that said player is experiencing in the Paris entity. His words were collected and analyzed in El Larguero.
“Neymar hardly trains anymore, he arrives in a pitiful state, bordering on being drunk. That’s the way it is, Neymar is in a spirit of revenge against PSG, there is a total break with the club and the locker room”, said the journalist who works for RMC Sport.
On AfterFoot, Riolo continued with the soap opera Neymar, and asked the PSG leaders to make a decision: “PSG fans don’t give a shit about Neymar’s antics. Let him go, he’s ruining the club. PSG fans don’t care that he’s not doing well, because of his Netflix documentary and all that. You have to sign your check and let it go. It is doing a lot of damage inside the club”, sentenced.
RMC also reported that there are two distinct camps forming within the team, one with the French speaking players and another with the South Americans. When the team was defeated, no one stood up. "When Neymar was fouled, 5 different players will come up to the referee at the same time. Yet, when Hakimi was fouled, no such thing happened."
At the beginning of the season, Pochettino was forceful with Mbappé, Messi and Neymar. The PSG coach assured that there was no reason to substitute them during a match because their technical quality could be differential at any time. That speech has changed in March, since this Sunday the Argentine removed Neymar from the field of play when the Parisian team was succumbing in Monaco (3-0). It is already everything but essential. So much so that there is even talk of leaving at the end of the season.
