Paris shines this season despite the departure of its two superstars Neymar and Messi. The Argentinian and the Brazilian respectively pushed towards the exit this summer do not fail to tackle the club of the capital as soon as the opportunity arises. Indeed a few hours before the beautiful victory of the Parisians against Lyon (4-1) the Brazilian newspaper O Globo revealed a piquant declaration of the new player of Al-Hilal about his former club and his friend Lionel Messi who left for the side of MLS: “I was very happy for him, for his season, even though he went through everything. He went to heaven with Argentina, he went through hell in Paris, he and I went through hell, he confides. We do our best, we are champions, we try to write history… that’s why we played together again, him and me, to write history. But unfortunately we did not succeed.”
A new media release that did not please the former glory of Arsenal Robert Pirès: “I call that mourners. You are a professional player and you have to know how to handle the pressure. When you’re good, you’re happy to receive praise and when you’re not good, it’s part of the game. We’ve all been criticized, me first. When I arrived at Arsenal they said who is he? “He’s there to replace Overmars, he sucks.”
Before Neymar, Lionel Messi also allowed himself to criticize his former club, describing his experience as “difficult”.
