– Neymar “has become a spoilt brat” at Paris Saint-Germain, according to Edouard Cisse, who insists that the €222 million star had “a cleaner style of play” at Barcelona.
– PSG forked out a world-record fee to bring Neymar to Parc des Princes from Barca in the summer of 2017, investing in the talent of a man who had established himself as one of the most dangerous wingers in the game during his four-year stay at Camp Nou.
– Neymar has since helped the French giants win 10 domestic trophies, but hasn’t quite lived up to his price tag amid struggles with injury and off-field disciplinary issues, with Cisse of the opinion that he was managed better at Barca.

– “At Barcelona there was a structure,” the former PSG midfielder has told Le Parisien. “Neymar had a cleaner style of play, although he dribbled more.
– “His job was to break the defensive line, make the difference and pass the ball to General Messi. He did it so well that he became his ‘alter ego’.
– “In Paris, they gave him the keys and they let him do what he wanted. In one moment, he was lost.
– “He is a great player, no one can dispute that, but he has become a spoilt brat and he bosses everyone around.”
– Neymar will be back in contention for a place in Pochettino’s line-up when PSG play host to Angers after the international break.
