hard moments. PSG are facing their worst moment of the season. After the World Cup in Qatar 2022, the Paris team added their first two defeats of the season in Ligue 1 and their main characters showed a level well below the usual. Faced with this scenario and after the 2-0 defeat by Rennes, the local press did not hold back and attacked neymar
One of the first to question the Brazilian’s level was RMC Sport’s journalist Daniel Riolo, who criticized his signing. “Are we aware that Neymar is the biggest failure in football history in terms of recruitment and salary?” were his harsh words.

Likewise, the communicator noted the millionaire he paid the French occupation to Barcelona (222 million) to bring him and the few results achieved so far. “I can’t think of a bigger failure for what it cost, it’s awful. The fact that he was good in two games at the end of 2020 doesn’t mean he will save your life,” he noted.
On the other hand, the medium L’Équipe also spoke about the Brazilian star’s actions and what rated 3 after their participation in the local competition. “Like against Angers in the middle of the week, the Brazilian went down too far in search of balls and too often tried to make the difference on his own. The result was that he lost balls in difficult areas and almost never posed a threat in the Rennes area. A worrying performance in a month by Bayern,” they declared.
When will Neymar play again?
Those directed by Christophe Galtier have an international commitment to fulfill this Thursday, January 19th. As is known, PSG meets the Riyadh season (a combination of the best players in the Saudi Arabian league) and in this game players like Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and Andre Carrillo.
