Vitinha on playing with Mbappe, Messi and Neymar: “You can't afford to have two or three who don't run”

Vitinha is one of the players of the moment. His ability to play and move PSG makes him the center of attention. Although he is a player who stands out for his actions on the pitch, in recent hours he has been in the spotlight for his words. Statements that have to do with the trident that PSG once had: Messi, Neymar and Mbappe. “You can’t afford to have one, two or three who don’t run,” he told Canal 11.

They are some of the best in history. But that’s not always the best thing for the team.

Even so, he has also had good words for them. The three are soccer stars for a reason, and the Portuguese knows that. “They are some of the best in history,” he said, aware that he has shared a dressing room with great figures. However, he went further. “But that’s not always the best thing for the team,” he added

Difference with the current PSG

Beyond talking about the past, Vitinha also spoke about the present. In the current PSG, the mentality has changed, partly thanks to Luis Enrique. The Spaniard has created a strong group, where everyone works for the team, although sometimes the results do not go their way. “That is the difference with the current PSG,” he said from his point of view.

For this reason, he wanted to highlight the work of his attacking teammates in pressing and recovering. “The attackers mark the full-backs like crazy. You see a Dembele, a Goncalo, pressing at the edge of the area and being the first to press up,” said the midfielder, who is focused exclusively on Paris this season.
