Neymar is living his worst moments at PSG. Fans, experts, his coach and now his team-mates seem to have grown tired of his antics, which has forced them to urge the superstar to control his temper whenever the team loses.
Speaking after yet another loss, this time against Montpellier, two of Neymar's compatriots criticized his actions after the game against Rennes, in which he got entangled into an argument with a fan, which ended when Neymar hit the fan for allegedly mocking him for that loss. Those footballers were none other than Dani Alves and Marquinhos.
The center-back spoke in harsh terms about what happened on Saturday evening, and even if he believes that when it comes to Neymar things are always blown out of proportion, the incident between Neymar and the fan should help his team-mate grow up.
"He knows he made a mistake. Whenever you feel the urge to attack another person, it's not the right thing to do. He's not a kid anymore, he has to know the difference between right and wrong. But people also know that things tend to be hyped when Neymar's involved.
But if Marquinhos' words were harsh, Dani Alves was even harsher when speaking about his friend.
"I hope this does not happen again. We had lost a title and he was mad. It was an inaccurate reaction, you have to try and keep it together. I know that you have to make mistakes to improve, but not as big a mistake as this one. Ney is an amazing guy, but he's too hot-headed at times. There will be moments like this one in which, even if I am his friend, I can't stand by his side," Alves stated.
PSG has failed to win multiple trophies in France for the first time in this decade, which has prompted massive pressure against coach Thomas Tuchel. Needless to say, Neymar's reaction on Saturday is one more example of just how hot things are right now inside Les Parisiens' locker room.
