Neymar's eternal labyrinth: "He is a spoiled child and a quarrel ''

Are we facing the classic storm in a glass of water, typical of the football world, in which everything is taken from mother? Is the N of the MNM jealous for the prominence of

and

? Or is there a problem with

whose performance at PSG is disappointing? For the definitive answers, we will have to wait. For now, this is the state of the art in the

. The gale arises when DAZN broadcasts a documentary about the Brazilian striker:

. The title refers to

and his successors:

,

and

.

Asked about the Qatar World Cup, the heir responds: “I see it as the last one because I don't know if I will be mentally strong enough to continue managing my life as a footballer.

So I'm going to give everything to win it with Brazil and finish well ».

The storm unleashed was global.

Are you announcing your retirement?

, sports director of PSG, a club that has extended his contract until 2025 with an automatic option of one more year, contacts him and demands explanations.

His environment clarifies that the player spoke of “the hypothesis that Qatar is his last World Cup. In no way was he talking about football in general. When the World Cup is played in the US, Mexico and Canada in 2026, Neymar will be 34 years old, an age at which many players have withdrawn from their national teams even though they continue to play for clubs.

, without going any further. In fact, the farewell to the

could benefit the Parisian team of the Qatari capital. Signed in 2017 from Barcelona for 222 million, Neymar has only played 118 games out of 235 possible.

The most surprising thing about the case is that the statements are not from now.

when the player had not renewed his contract, the signing of Messi was an illusion and the departure of Mbappé to Real Madrid was taken for granted.

Which nullifies any speculation of jealousy about his companions.

Neymar left Barça to emancipate himself from Messi, the undisputed leader on and off the Culé court.

Neymar wanted to win by himself in a project articulated around him.

It has not worked.

, although he has played a final.

THE CRITICS OF CISSÉ

The one who explained it best was

, a former midfielder of the Paris eleven: «In the Barça scheme, Neymar had a more refined game even though he dribbled more. His task was to break the opponent's kidneys, make a difference and pass the ball to General Messi. He did it so well that he became the

.

and have let him do whatever he wants. At one point, it has been lost. Nothing to say about the player, but he has become a spoiled child and a fighter ».

Too many injuries, too many revelries, too many provocations. Harassed by rivals who sew him to fouls, they have taken 29 yellow cards and four reds, more than

who has a reputation for trickery. This Tuesday, he is out in the Champions League against Leipzig due to discomfort in the adductors.

The most curious thing is the transformation that the arrival of Messi and the continuity of Mbappé has operated in Neymar. He is the worker of the MNM. Come down to defend! And run like never before. Against Bruges (1-1), on the first day of the Champions League, he traveled 10.2 km, a distance only surpassed by

(11.5 km). In the match against Manchester City (2-0) he ran 11 km against Mbappé's 9 or Messi's 8.5. He made as many entries as

(eight). The latter was the man of the match and what history will remember will be Messi's first goal with the Parisian shirt and the subtle pass from Mbappé.

Delivered to the collective game, criticism on the other hand rages. Neymar does not score goals like before. In the five league games he has played, he

and given two assists. Mbappé has played nine games, scored four goals and served three. The hierarchy has changed. And that's not counting on Messi, still in the making. Against City, Neymar only dribbled once.

The statistics are cruel with the 10 of PSG. Between 2017 and 2020 he scored 78 goals (17 from penalties). In 2021 he transformed six maximum penalties, but only brought the ball into the net on play three more times. This season he has only scored one goal. Little return for a salary of 40 million a year. Neymar, who

when he already belonged to Santos, poorly digest criticism. Many times unfair. As in the 2014 World Cup, when they accused him of erasing himself from the semifinal against Germany that ended in humiliation (7-1), when in fact he had a fissured vertebra. After a new collective failure of the Brazilians in 2018, it is understandable that winning in 2022 in Qatar makes him excited.

The provisional conclusion of the

provided by Cissé: «Neymar

.

His talent is beyond question.

But are you motivated enough?

The worst thing for a footballer is not wanting to respond to criticism from the pitch.
