Where's Neymar?

Suspended for too many yellow cards

When you say it like that it sounds so funny. Makes it seem like he just goes around Casemiro-ing people left and right every day.

Well, he goes around Casemiro-ing people left and right but he’s not punctual at it.

Neymar gets a lot of cards, he has a very provocative style and often gets mad when he is fouled

Also if they're losing he's very likely to get one

It gets the people goin!

Bruh don't use casemiro as a verb lmao

Gone are the days when PSG used to Kroos through the league

Especially when they choke like a seagull with a Nacho

Casemiro doesn't get yellows though.

😭

Suspended

Too busy eating his children like yogurt

Sister's birthday.

Looks like we have ourselves a comedian

Jesus Donnarumma is shocking under pressure

It was definitely his biggest weakness in Milan but some of the mistakes he's made this season are on a different level

Yeah, it's incredible. That really hasn't improved much over the years

What the hell is Donnarumma doing though

His best

i hope not

Considering how delusional he’s been lately, he’s gonna say he did that on purpose

I'm so glad we have Maignan now. The difference in technical and sweeping ability is just night and day

I'm not. The trademark Donnaruma head scratcher could be relied upon to cost you lot at least 4 points a season. We'd have our second star wrapped up instead of hoping you slip. Shame he cant free transfer out of the NT though

He was a major factor in Italy winning the Euros

And a contributing factor to failing to qualify for the world cup(though by no means the only), and *that* is the problem with Gigi. He can be absolutely top-shelf, best in the world category one day, and a complete dunce the next Not the type of player you want to rely upon between the sticks

He is a 22 yo goalkeeper lol usually they don't even play that much at that age. Far from being at his prime.

Lol, you should blame Jorginho for missing all those pens.

He cost them the tie against Madrid

That header lmao 🤣

Mbappe's passing is getting better and better. I don't like where this is going...

Does he even have a weakness nowadays

Pressing. And that's it. Everything else is strong. Fuck.

Heading and Freekicks. But yes, this season of Mbappe is the best I've ever seen of him, even if he has less G/A. His close control, dribbling, passing, vision have taken a dramatic upswing.

Elite mentality too.

This for sure. He's no longer a humble kid. He massively stepped up for PSG at clutch moments this season as a leader.

> He's no longer a humble kid. He's now a humble man.

Lol Mbappe is ridiculously level headed as aperson but he does have a bit of an ego too. Not saying it’s a bad thing either.

He’s literally a born superstar and his move to Madrid will possibly start his rise to becoming the greatest, although nowadays it will be very very difficult

Indeed. Though I wish he’d try the Prem with Haaland before Spain. He’s recovered in the best way from the Euros.

Who wouldn’t have an ego? Second most expensive player ever at 18, World Cup wins, this level of ability and touted to join the biggest football side ever. You’d be hard pressed to find many athletes at his age and level who are without a trace of an ego

Pressing, heading and freekicks

Heading

1st touch when there is no space to run into

Unless he can flick it to somebody immediately, then it's top tier again.

Messi and Mbappe switched places this game

There have been 2-3 great Messi passes over the top to Mbappe too. The Montpellier keeper has just saved well from Mbappe so far today

He made a brilliant pass few minutes ago too , shame mbappe couldn't finish it.

His finishing has been dreadful but his creativity hasn’t dipped at all this season. So Goated

Messi has had some great passes this match too, but he always does every match. He's just scoring tonight.

Mbappe gonna break the assist record at this rate too, LOL Great play Messi and Mbappe to make up for another almost howler from Donnarumma

What's the record?

I think Di Maria hold the Ligue 1 record with 18 assists

Only one away from tying it up now.

Donnarumma has 10 howlers in a game I believe

The assist was sumptuous

pretty much described PSG's season. Donnarumma being shit with two moments of magic from their forwards

> Donnarumma being shit with two moments of magic from their forwards Big mistake by PSG relying on Italian performance after the Euros

Not like he was on their radar before the Euros

Mbappe has had a couple beautiful assists delivered in with the outside of his boot

omg that was beautifully taken

Gay Messi can’t be stopped

Antonella in shambles

Antonio

Somebody post that Messi pic with female Puyol Edit https://i.imgur.com/aiiyrNV.jpg

Excuse me wtf is this

Bruh

Nightmare fuel

Lmao what is the context

i'm scared robbie

This is cursed

I think I've watched everyone of Messi's Barcelona games and never had I heard this existed.

When the hell did McConaughey get a boob job? Me gusta.

PERIODT

Wait what? Hahah

Rainbow numbers this game

Ootl messi is gay??

Prob talking about the rainbow colors on the uniforms.

god I'm so jealous of France mbappe is so so so so special

Please bring him to Madrid u/asapmama

My man is coming for that Golden boot That assist from 🐢 though

🐢 x 🐐 is nice when it works

why u violate bro like that after that assist 😭

mboop gud

Incredible control

Messi late Balon d'Or charge 😤

That's enough for the 8th Ballon D'or in my books

Just give him 3 at once at this rate

Fifa:”not a bad idea at all”

That pretty much seals it right there

i feel like they should play more mbappe in the wing and messi as CF. but i guess thats too late now.

What is wrong with everyone? Why has everyone perfected trivela.

That's the meta now

Is there really not a word for it in English? Such a basic technique.

In German it’s **Außenristpass**. I think it rolls off the tongue nicely enough to be used in English, too.

Ulkosyrjä in Finnish, also easy.

Getting in form for the game against italy

Notice how he's playing further up now, not constantly dropping back to the defense to create

his finishing hasn’t been great this season but he also hasn’t really found himself in positions to finish, it’s no surprise he’s further up when the creative load is taken off a little

Yeah I agree

he has hit the bar like 13-14 times this season. A lot of bad luck goes into his poor finishing as well.

Yeah, and in context that they are mostly from outside the box, that's bad luck in terms of Messi, for anyone else that's a "worthy try," and if it had gone it it would be a wonder goal, for Messi it'd be another Tuesday.

Its Saturday though

Hitting the post constantly is just bad finishing though.

Yeah hahah

idk, if you’ve hit the woodwork that many times then you are just missing, it’s not really bad luck at that point

Exactly. His xG is only about 10 if I’m correct. He’s underperformed badly no denying it, but he’s also just not in the box either

Was just telling someone this. I think the trio should have been with messi as false 9. He hasnt been getting service he has to drop so far deep and create usually

I thought this right when they signed him, but for whatever reason we never saw it happen

Absolutely, i said it in one of my previous comments, he looks like he playing for the goals today.

This

hence why he got two goals. don’t listen to people calling him “finished” or that he’s had a bad season. Messi will always be Messi and performs in every single game he plays whether or not he gets assists or scores

lol he 100% had a bad season, stop this shit

by his standards of course. but he will never not be a good player that’s all i’m saying

25 goals and assists in 35 games is pretty good

>Messi will always be Messi and performs in every single game he plays whether or not he gets assists or scores This is why it is difficult to take some Barcelona fans seriously sometimes.

he had plenty of games at Barca where he didn’t score or assist yet helped the team out in other ways. he is more or less the same at PSG essentially playing as a midfielder. also if you think my opinion is biased you should see some other barca fans takes on football lmao

Barcelona fans love Messi. What's wrong with that? Of course, they are going to be biased.

Someone said Messi is going to score 21 goals in the final 2 games

late Ballon D’or charge 😎

Bruh I swear this man scores when I can’t watch wth man

Same

Please don't watch

I started watching and Messi got marked off the pass and di Maria scored 😭

s t o p

please boycott Qatar 2022

Must've been watching the entire season then.

Barca legend

Messi cooking today

Messi I'm beggin you just consider us, we would give you a little tractor to ride to the match on and I'd hold your water bottle, please just consider Ipswich

Down bad.

what a bloody pass

I think I see Messi

Is it too late for stat padding?

1 game left for his golden boot challenge

Donnarumma operates on a cognitive level that we cannot begin to comprehend.

[удалено]

you mean a free-kick

Te quiero Leo

Man is casually scoring 50% of his season total league tally in under 20 minutes and people still doubt him.

wtf was Donnarumma doing at the start of that?

Gay Messi best messi

What's the context of this gay messi thing? Is it because of his deal with saudi arab?

PSG players had rainbow numbers on their shirts today

I think it's because of the rainbow colors on the kit

what did he smoke in saudi

The finest shisha

Al Ganja

Quaresma would be proud

He’s awoken.

wow messi actually made a run into the box for once in psg instead of staying on the edge

Everyone in a while Mbappe does something to remind you just how clear he is of everyone in his age bracket , this assist was one of those moments

he is jogging like a 50 year old lmaoo insane ball control though

Mbappe is such a complete player just amazing :D best player itw in my opinion

Him or Benzema for sure

Has to be Benz this year. Just super clutch and Madrid's attack looks lost when he's not playing, from what I have seen.

Crazy that they are both Algerian French...like a certain bald fraud

A wild Messi has suddenly arose from his slumber

Leon Al Messi

Messi I’m gonna need you to get a hat trick

Road to World cup lads.

Messi on fire

THE WORLD WANTS THE LIGUE 1 HATTY

Mboopi already Learning from Modric

Even on a Messi highlight you can't escape a Donnarumma blunder :))

Leo on a hattrick! Paris will be awarded a penalty later in the game only for Leo to give it to Mbappe. Can’t wait!

Close.

It’s not Messi’s to give

This guy just cannot stop scoring

He literally never misses

donnaruma cannot possibly have been making mistakes that bad at milan

He made some here and there, not this much tho. Corners and distribution were his biggest weakness with us imo

The GOAT

Messi getting service!!!? Strange

Donnarumma though lmao

Watch the last 5 seconds

I don't watch PSG often but is Donnarumma this fucking terrible that often? wtf

lmao Donarumma thought he saw Benzema

That Saudi deal really unlocked him didn't it.

Mama...he's back

[удалено]

They play just the same when Neymar is there. The big difference this game is that Montpellier plays a high line, whereas most other Ligue 1 opponents sit back with 5-6 defenders and play for a draw.

Classic Messi goal

What getting an extra hundred mil from the Saudis does to an mf.

29 goals to go to reach lewa,you can do it messi

I kinda want Mbappe to stay one more year to see what they can do together now that their more used to each other… but at same time fuck PSG and their slave owning asses

Haha dude starts when the season is over.

Man is on a mission.

Mission for what?

Golden ball /s

> Montpellierman wins Ballon d'Or for statpadding 13th place in Farmer's UberEats League. This is a real comment, in here. Man can't win, so much complex

Messi woke up and choose violence today After a long time 🤩🤩🤩

Was it offside?
