The three-time winner of the Golden Ball, the legendary Marco van Basten, sharply attacked Neymar. The striker criticizes the Brazilian for the way he behaves on the field.
The legendary Dutch and Milan player Van Basten was worried about Neymar’s behavior on the pitch.
The Brazilian is either provocative (appeals to referees or opponents), or whiny (sometimes asks for non-existent fouls), Van Basten believes.
In Ziggo Sport, the former great Dutch striker has slammed PSG star Neymar.
“I am annoyed by the behavior of PSG players, especially Neymar.
Neymar is the initiator of this bad behavior and makes others do bad things.
He should stick to football. It’s a shame, I think it’s bad for such a big team” – Marco van Basten.
“Neymar has a bad role. He is always looking for it. He’s really a moron (…) He’s a good player, but he does everything but football. He plays with the referee, with the opponent. I think it’s ugly,” added the Dutchman, quoted by News.ro.
