The game against Monaco on Saturday saw PSG suffering a 3-1 hammering to the French team as Neymar lost it inside the dressing room. The 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League has made things worse within the camp. According to reports from ESPN, he vented out on his teammates and the sporting director.

However, he explained how arguments were a part of soccer and nothing more than that as he explained the details that came out in the limelight. He stated, “It happened, a little discussion, we weren’t in agreement. It’s part of football. Things happen every day. But I love them all.” Since football is a competitive game, arguments are part and parcel of the sport as long as it improves performances. Therefore, the winger admitted to chaos but downplayed the rift part.

He continued, “It’s like with my girlfriend. Football isn’t just love and friendship. There is respect, but there have to be disagreements and discussions sometimes are needed to help you improve.” It’s been a rough time for PSG since they lost to Real Madrid in last year’s Champions League final. They bottled their progression into the historic cup competition after a series of careless mistakes. It prompted the senior officials of the club to act drastically.
