Discussing an indifference towards the modern game, the PSG forward has criticised leading figures at Atletico, Manchester United and Real Madrid
Paris Saint-Germain forward Hatem Ben Arfa has hit out at Diego Simeone and Jose Mourinho, claiming their styles of play are "killing football", while branding Cristiano Ronaldo "predictable".
Atletico Madrid coach Simeone and Manchester United boss Mourinho have both enjoyed success in domestic competitions with approaches built on defensive organisation.
However, France international Ben Arfa believes the way they set up their sides is "not in the essence of football".
"Many coaches are convinced to invent football on the pretext that they are looking for a system to block the opponent," Ben Arfa told France Football.
