Giants running back Saquon Barkley has been frequently criticised lately for the way he plays the game. Now the 25-year-old is lashing out at a press conference.

Munich – Running back Saquon Barkley has had it anything but easy lately. Countless people criticised the 25-year-old’s running game. It was said that he moves too much from side to side instead of putting his energy into the forward movement.

Barkley has now addressed the criticism at a press conference held by his team New York Giants. “I’ve been playing this position for a long time, I’m not the perfect running back by any means and I still have a lot of work to do,” the athlete explained.

“But I know people say about me, ‘He doesn’t know what he’s doing.’ He’s just dancing around back there.’ I’m really fed up with people who have never played a position and are now trying to tell me how to execute a position. “

Barkley struggled with injury

And continued, “Running back is a difficult position, but it’s very easy to sit in front of the TV, pause the picture and then criticise. “

Last season, Barkley could do little to prove critics wrong. Among other things, he struggled with an ankle injury and a covid infection.
