The tense Nîmes-PSG of September 1, 2018 is still in everyone’s mind. That day, the Crocs bowed to PSG (2-4) after a meeting ended in anger where Savanier and Mbappé had notably been excluded. A behavior that the new coach of the Gard club absolutely does not want to see this Friday, evoking Neymar, regularly targeted by the defenses of Ligue 1.
“We do not go into that vice”
“We are the best team in terms of fair play, we are the team that makes the fewest mistakes,” defends Arpinon. The Nîmes coach also sweeps away a possible destabilization strategy for the Parisian number 10: “It would be a little arm. We are not going to talk to Neymar. We do not fit in there, we have to be fair. We do not fit in. in that vice. “
“Talking is a sign of weakness. If you are confident in your qualities, you don’t need to speak,” Arpinon adds. According to him, his team will therefore focus on football and will not use provocation to get Neymar out of his match. While adding that the Brazilian will be dangerous, whatever his condition: “Neymar can be tired (after his matches with Brazil), put you a little bridge and a skylight.”
