He was superb, and to be honest he usually always is. The only thing that would let him down was cards and arguing with the ref. Maybe he’s gonna stamp that out his game now.

He was good but he is injured very often and loses his mind when losing. Choker.

I’d say he’s on Neymar and Mbappe tier for you when it comes to importance. The midfield looks 100 times more assured when he’s on the field.

Now watch him force a transfer again in the summer and wonder why its not working out.

Definitely !
I have said that here earlier : there is a PSG with Neymar and without Neymar and the same can be said about Verratti.
Cavani injury was not an huge miss imo, as long as we don't have to play Choupo-Moting.
Mbappé is important but he is not in that tier (yet, i hope). He can be decisive on some actions as he did at Old Trafford on his goal but he won't run the show during the whole game like those.
I'll wait confirmation from more reliable sources though but the salary he is asking is very reasonable, if true. When you see Rabiot asking for the same (or more with the signing on fee), it is pretty understandable why clubs are reluctant to give it right away.
That would also mean he would have made most of his career at PSG. Pretty fantastic !

More time for his lipstick game now that they are out.

I couldn't but laugh to this. Hilarious!

Been saying it ever since he was foolish enough to move to QSG. The guy is wasting his prime years and talent playing for a farmer's club in a farmer's league that keeps embarrassing Ligue 1 in the CL.

That's why you don't sign with PSG or Re-sign. I know a lot of people hate Rabiot, but I think he is a smart man getting out of Qatar prison.

Neymar, Verratti locked for good.. Waste their careers.
