Dude he was 22 when he left wolfsburg, im sure he had offers when he was at psg. After Neymar came in 17/18 he lost his starting spot and he should have considered a move instead of become a benchplayer.

It doesn't change that your claim is inaccurate because before he even joined PSG he was not only not performing and had become an undesirable element in his german club.

The problem of Draxler is not football anyway. He just doesn't have the mentality to push himself despite his talent and enjoy his good life in Paris and being the owner of the restaurant of his asian ethnic girlfriend family.

A true winner in real life.

Upgraded in attack, but downgraded in defense. Also if they lose Mbappe, they downgraded everywhere imo. :lol:

Who did they lose in defense? Hakimi is a better RB than whomever they had there last season. Don't know how Ramos will look, but cannot be worse than Kehrer who played today it seems.

You know why... :lol:

Ramos looks over the hill though. Hakimi is a great RB, in offense. More like a winger.

Technically, I should have said in the defensive part of the game.

Messi? He pressed and worked hard off the ball for Argentina in Copa America. If Pochettino tells him to press up front in the CL KO Stages he will.

He can coast in their league anyway like the Bayern players.

Messi looked a bit slow, I know its early in the season but didn't look like he had it in him to dribble past players. Hope he doesn't drop of a cliff physically,

Mbappe is frightening, what a player. Speed, skill, finishing and now scoring many headers.

Hmmm, don't think his legs are there for the level of intensity a big CL tie requires. Not him, and probably not Neymar either. But we'll see.

Too early to say anyway tbh.

But he showed this summer that he will work hard when the situation calls for it and he want to.

Too early indeed, but CL intensity is totally different level. If he can do it, then the change was good for him. If he can't, PSG will have problems trying to apply consistent pressure in the front.

Did kattanib write about his impressions? Only trust his evaluation. Tho, serghei's might suffice too :lol:

Mbappe needs to work on his ball control
