“It’s ridiculous to make Neymar play as a winger”

Tite it is clear. In his opinion, Neymar he does not have to play on the wings but in the center. This was stated by the Brazilian coach in an interview with ‘Globoesporte’, in which he assured that the questioned PSG footballer “is not a problem but the solution”.

The coach says that the crack will make more mistakes inside, but will have greater decision-making power. “‘It’s not a problem, it’s a solution. Sometimes they say that there (in the center) he will make more mistakes. Sure, his position makes him make more mistakes, but when he does it creatively, it will be decisive.”

When Tite took charge of the Seleçao in 2016, Neymar was the team’s left winger. He now says that he considers any coach to be stupid who uses him on the wing and doesn’t take advantage of his characteristics from the inside. “If a coach places Neymar on the wing, I’ll call him a donkey watching the game. A player with these qualities, doing that, limits his creative capacity a lot. Creativity is not constancy, it’s eventuality, it’s circumstantial. He will make more mistakes, that’s yes, because his creative capacity and the place in which he finds himself demand it”.
