I actually don't blame Mbappe for wanting to leave that prison. Neymar and Messi are absolutely ass at forward play in 2021 (and by their own design)

Messi has no idea what it means to follow a tactical role. He wants to do his own thing and feels others (including the manager) should adapt to him. Kind of delusional.

In CL you have to follow the plan and suffer for the team.

Quite similar to the semi-final last year. City controlling the game but lack of striker is a problem but when PSG do break they look threatening with Mbappe’s speed.

Good day for BZZ

City win he can hate on Pep and soft choir boys

PSG lose he can hate on Messi and Neymar.

Draw he can hate on both.

I guess it's much harder in modern football to do that. Teams are better drilled and less individualistic.

But there's literally no data set to support your claim. Or disprove it.

Hence my opinion and why I predicated it with "I always got the sense/feeling".

Eye test tells me there's something to it but you also have a valid point that I've seen a lot more of Messi (and hence more worse games)

PSG are lucky City don't have Bayern's front line. This could be a 3-1 easy with how Pep dominated PSG's side.

Unfortunately, they don't award "possession/chances created" trophies.

It's the same story with Pep every season. And he's had an unlimited budget to fix it.

PSG midfield are nothing. Can hardly blame the front 3 here. Think Neymar could help more though as that's where all the trouble is coming from.
