The Dutch legend did not hold back when sharing his views on Neymar's behavior on the pitch, which he labeled as 'disrespectful'.

Apparently, some of the past glories in football are not that fond of some of PSG's superstars. In this case, former striker and Dutch ace Marco Van Basten aimed a scathing dig at Neymar following his last Ligue 1 performance.

The man who touched the sky with AC Milan back in the late 80's aimed some fresh digs at the Brazilian in his role as pundit for TV channel Ziggo Sport. There, Van Basten did not hold back when asked his thoughts on Neymar, and let's just say that his words were anything but flattering.

"He is a crybaby. He is constantly getting into his rivals' nerves. He can go from fouling someone to becoming the alleged victim one second later," Van Basten stated.

Then, the former footballer's attacks escalated by letting the world know he is not even a bit fond of the player's skills.

"There is absolutely no permission to touch him. He is a disgusting person on the pitch. He can't go around fouling people and then falling to the ground as a victim, it's not right," the former footballer added.

This is not the first time in which Van Basten has destroyed the reputation of a PSG player. Months ago, the legendary Dutch player aimed a dig at Lionel Messi for his "poor leadership skills", adding he did not believe he deserved to be called among the top three players in history.

Van Basten's comments made headlines just hours before PSG's crucial clash against Benfica in the UEFA Champions League, where PSG are struggling to claim the top spot in Group H.
