The famous French columnist criticized the state of mind of the Parisian striker, Neymar.
Neymar has yet to play a single game this season, but he is already getting his first reviews. The Brazilian was the target of negative remarks from Didier Roustan, the famous columnist for the L’Equipe channel.
“Neymar no longer has the pride of the champion”
As he prepares to return to the field after six months of absence, “Ney” has set himself the goal of returning the best player in the world. An ambition that the famous Franco-Congolese journalist made fun of.
“For me, he lost that pride. Remember, he loses the Copa America in 2021 and yet it is at home at the Maracana in Brazil. Normally, it should be wiped out. Yet, as soon as it’s over; he will kiss Messi and then he will chat with him while sitting quietly on the stairs, ” Roustan said.
The President for life of the Evening team does not dispute the talent of the PSG star. But, he insists he doesn’t have the right mentality for a top footballer: “He has fantastic qualities, but he has lost the pride of champion. Or else, he has it in fits and starts. Himself, says that the golden ball does not interest him. You have to have it in your genes in today’s football. He’s a great player, but he’s never had a full season.”
To motivate the Brazilian genius and bring him back to his top level, there is nothing better than statements like these. It is up to him to provide the best response on the ground.
