The French press rail against Neymar after terrible week
The Brazilian has just penned a contract renewal with the capital club
Neymar is being criticised after a bad week for PSG. Knocked out of the Champions League and with their Ligue 1 throne at risk, they are blasting the Brazilian.
They began to arrive after he sealed his contract renewal with PSG and avoided a new Barca soap opera. They drew 1-1 at Rennes on Sunday.
“Lazy between the lines, without dynamism,” criticised L’Equipe of the forward. “Neymar enjoyed himself alone, forgetting his team-mates. His goal, the eighth in 16 Ligue 1 games, did not hide his clearly insufficient production.”
Le Parisien also were unhappy with him, saying he played ‘in socks’. RMC Sport were also critical.
“There are players who have to take responsibility, how can a guy like Neymar have such a catastrophic week?” they said. “We can’t keep saying the Brazilian genius, the artist, the world top three, the future Ballon d’Or winner’.
