Kick one of the best fullbacks itw into a tantrum that made him leave Manchester City on the last day of the january window, youngest player ever to score as a starter in a UCL match while being a defender, understanding Pep's ideas better from the academy than players with whole professional careers and years of experience under Pep, already a strong contender in 3 different positions for the best team in Europe. Have you been living under a rock to ask that?

this team would be ironically better without mbappé

Dembele hasn’t caused us any controversy, neither has Donnarumma, nor Kimpembe and Marquinhos except for their lackluster performances.

Bro is still stuck in 2022 lol

"P$G has too many ''Mr Big Star''" Apart from Mbappe, is there anyone else in the team who's like that?

A promising player from Asia. Although he does not have many goals or assists, he makes some accurate and effective passes in the game. He is also a good free kicker and shooter, and these figures are quite underrated. He is a versatile player who can handle both RM and LM tasks, but he is better off playing CAM in the future, as he does not often use his dribbling and speed to rip opponents apart. 80-83/85-88

plz return to Paris

He's very calm and very reasonable in his approach to football. His understanding of football is very thorough. Something that few player at his age can do.

Wow I'm dumb

Bruh. As great Messi and Ronaldo were to watch I am kinda glad their careers are about to end. They created a generation of dickriders

Transfer market is just a complete and utter joke now

The hate and jealousy is unreal on him😭

Nah I’m not sure people understand how much this means to me

I just checked many comments manager made last season under Romano twitter. Keyword is not for sale, and it’s very often. Maybe Eddie is more unique and interested in doge the question. Let’s see. I am neutral on this transfer rumor, but would be attracted if Newcastle actually have some ffp issue.

awful comparison lmfao bro just took the only old korean player hes heard of and compared him to lee just cuz theyre both south korean

I get your point and I agree, if we had signed the defensive mid we desperately needed we would be 10 points clear at the top.

Weve got Petrovic, dont need him lol

Funny how you and Vardrid are interested into making football fair when you struggle. Where was this point of view when you were money laundering and dominating Europe? Oh wait. You probably weren't even born then.

Look at it from his perspective. He is a Parisian respected by PSG, a future captain and a great addition to the squad. He probably wants to be apart of PSG's new rebuild, and unlike Varcelona who spent all their money paying the refs, or europa league Liverpool, he would actually get a respectful wage. He is here to stay

Thus kid's page goes to show how stupidly immature users are. The kid had hate comments and, out of nowhere, they've all changed opinion because he's currently not at Barcelona or PSG🤣

His brother could get added in the update after 29/12

A lot of defensive awareness, a true MDL, a tough player, he rarely gives up on the play, as he is only 17 years old, he still makes a lot of mistakes in his game, he often makes unnecessary fouls and receives a yellow card, and ends up compromising the team for the rest of the game, has good quality in his passes, and in general has a lot of potential for development

At this point, Real just doesn’t need him. He might be a great player with great abilities, that’s undeniable, but from his attitude he just doesn’t fit into Real and their current squad. There seem to be a great team spirit, a great working moral, a team that functions perfectly, personality wise as well as on the pitch. I doubt that someone like Mbappe with a kinda diva like attitude would affect the squad in a positive way, plus Real just doesn’t need a winger. They just extended the contracts ist Vini and Rodrygo, both are fully committed to Madrid, with heart and passion whereas Mbappes priority seem to be to make as much money as possible. I would actually prefer to see players like Nico Williams at Real.

That's fair, we perhaps aren't strictly forcing him out, but it does feel like we are looking to move these guys on, despite his performance today. And I suspect if that is the case, then Ratcliffe and INEOS might already be promoting that strategy.

De Zerbi wanted him to be better physically and train more. Once Ansu started doing that he became a regular starter towards the end. And also De Zerbi always subs out his wingers every game, even Mitoma. He is probably going to be a starter again after his injury, De Zerbi has been speaking very positive about him.

The big Brazilian clubs have never been bigger than the establishment European clubs so I disagree on that point. I mean we’ve established football in the mid 1800s and Brazil didn’t even know what football was until the early 1900s so we’ve always had a start on them to establish and create historical clubs. I’d say even our lower league teams like Notts County have a higher respect than a São Paulo or Flamengo. That’s not me disrespecting South American clubs but the history of those clubs can’t compare. As far as Saudi goes, I guess time will tell. It’s fine about the Bruins, I can just change team since I have no loyalty to them 😉 lol

Thanks guys for that discussion without arguing or insulting each other, pretty rare on Internet nwd so thank I enjoyed reading both your opinions (Btw, hope both your clubs will get better soon, even if as a Nancy fan you'll never feel the same pain lmao)

I respect your viewpoint as someone outside of Europe and I know in Canada there are a lot of French speaking people so it makes sense that you would follow a French club. I don’t know you, you might be the most loyal passionate supporter of PSG. However if we sum up your country as a whole then we can probably agree that it’s not your national sport. People in your country aren’t generally brought up to play it and it’s not part of your culture. Same goes for North America and the majority of Asia. If North America and Asia decided to make football their national number 1 sport and put all their resources into it then leagues like the MLS would be rivalling the premier league and La Liga but that would never happen because the US for example considers it probably their 5 or 6 favourite sport. It’s not engraved into their culture so why would it be number 1? In England we are born and then we kick a football about. Same goes for most European countries. So for people who aren’t brought up on it and it’s not their countries national sport then of course (apart from the minority) they aren’t going to have a real loyalty to a club. I believe in Canada Ice Hockey is your national sport. I enjoy watching hockey. I kind of like the Bruins in the NHL but I don’t have any loyalty to them as such. You’d be surprised about the amount of support premier clubs have in the Nordic regions but yes you’re right, if a youngster from Molde got a chance to play for Real Madrid then of course he would take it. Let’s say the Saudi league gets to the point where it has all the best players. It’s fan base wild be people in Saudi, a minority in the rest of Asia and a minority in the US probably. As mentioned, a Man Utd supporter, a Liverpool supporter, Real Madrid, Barca, Milan etc etc etc the list goes on. None of these supporters are going to start supporting and caring about a Saudi Arabian football club. If money does truly lure all the best players then why don’t they already have players like Mbappe? Haaland etc? Why didn’t they offer 20 times more money than what City offered for Haaland? Maybe they did and maybe it was accepted. City offered him over £19M per year salary and Al Ali boo boo bah diddley doo offered him £60M per year. He would take the City contract. Players like Ronaldo, Benzema and Neymar are all at the end of their careers so of course they will take a paycheque from Saudi, they would be silly not to. Another player, Messi, moved to the MLS because he’s at the end of his career. Do you think any of these players would have moved to Saudi in their prime? I don’t think so. Some players in their prime will go of course but a player like Messi who loves the game would have never gone there. I’m waffling on a bit now and I’m not sure I’ve made my point but I’ll post it anyway haha

Ngl, he's better than Bellingham was at 17. Let's see if he can develop as well as he has, he definitely has the talent to be one of the best midfielders of this new generation

"We are not afraid of anyone, whoever we draw we will be ready" damn.. he's just 17

I was born and raised in Paris so I am parisian from flesh. My story for supporting man city (if you care) dates back to when I was a little kid and my football coach showed us entire pep's city matches to show us football at it's finnest he said, since the age of 8 (my bad 10) I've watch city in the locker room and then as a city fan. Now I've been working at the Parc des Prince as a volunteer for each and every home games for 2 years now so I've found my love for my hometown club again (psg) but always keep an eye on my childhood memories (city). I know there is a lot of "plastic" fans out there but each and every real football lover has an history with their club. It's just like a teenage crush, you fall in love with a club and you can't help it. Have a great day pal

I think its cringe that people still talking about players that ain't in Europe all due respect to the goats but let them do whatever now its their last few years, Neymar is still very good recently became Brazil top goal scorer its just that he's injury prone but anyways he's playing in saudi anyways so why does it matter?

fr, this is why I need a son so he can be the pro player

People hate on PSG, but the homegrown talent that they produce for themselves shows how well they’re ran

You could argue that the board is impatient and wants results now but you can also argue that some of them wouldn't be the players that they are if they didnt leave. Guys like Nkunku and Maignon were young and werent ready and QSI was trying to win everything in the quickest possible timeframe.

Should be giving them more chances, instead of selling them to buy foreign players

Our starboy !! Absolutly adore him, HE is paris

We love him, we just love him

He wasn't even supposed to come back from injury before Jan but he came back, put a MOTM performance and carried this team to the R16. What a player!!

If he plays like this at 17 imagine when he grows. like 25 yrs old with experience. He might be in the fight for the future ballondor

Plus it is not really an injury that he could avoid, it was a butcher's tackle by a gibraltar player (probably a butcher in everyday life too) so yeah, no rush, but no worry also

He makes less than €5000 a week lmao. Mbappe makes 5 times more in a week than he will all season. It’s not money.

75 rating would still make him the best rated and most promising 17 year old in the game, retard

It feels like we are forcing out the really high earners one by one. First Cavani, Ronaldo has gone, De Gea has gone, Martial is likely leaving, Sancho is likely leaving. Varane and Casemiro are possibly leaving next summer. That's an enormous reduction to the wage bill, probably over £2 million per week or £100 million per year in total if they all leave. We've replaced Cavani and Ronaldo with Hojlund, we've replaced De Gea with Onana, and Henderson with Bayindir, and we've pretty much already replaced Sancho with Garnacho. If we replace Varane with Jean Todibo, and Casemiro with Boubacar Kamara or Amadou Onana for example, that would leave us with a much smaller wage bill than we have had for several years. It makes sense, because it will allow United to invest serious money in signing low profile young players on low wages, that have great potential and suit the system we intend to play, rather than continue this current ludicrous cycle where we sign high profile players on high wages for a few years, then replace them further high profile players on high wages, after they fail to really deliver in a team with no identity.

81/88 RW CAM CM LW

Un putain de Robot 🤖 espérant que sont retour ne soit pas trop précipité,je préfère qu'il reste encore 2 semaine au frais plutôt qu'il revienne juste pour dortmund et qu'il ce blesse pour 2-3 mois

Yeah exactly, that’s what I said to myself when I saw that I looked more online and it’s actually a bug so it’s really not a big deal just something I’d hope they improve next update

Saying Wirtz would start over Gavi is completely stupid Both play completely separate roles Gavi is an aggressive intelligent box to box midfielder and Wirtz is a silky technically gifted CAM. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. Wirtz is the better player imo but he would not replace Gavi cause he does not fit Gavi's role in Barca(that's if he went to Barca) Both class players tho Wirtz 86/93 Gavi 83/89

Clearly you know nothing about goalkeeping. You breed confidence in a keeper by backing him. When has a team ever been successful with two no.1 keepers? Never. The defence needs stability and consistency. And a keeper needs the confidence of knowing one little mistake may not cost him his career, because even the best make mistakes. Goalkeeping mentality is completely different to any other position. Arteta has screwed him by bringing in Raya.

I have always defended him but i just don't see him succeeding under someone like Enrique who plays possession based football... I hope he somehow improves in this sector coz he's definitely top 5 when it comes to pure shot stopping but I don't know.

73/82 nothing less

Thought it was a terrible idea to get him, but O'Brien really is proving something rn. Incredibly tall and way quicker than he is on Fifa. Might become an international and make us some millions in the future

He is the best player of Lyon this season. And his transfer is not as random as some here say. Last season he was at loan at RWDM (that is owned by the same group that owns Lyon) and played very well. But this season he is basically the only one who shows passion on the field for Lyon. I would say he deserves to be at least 74/82 and his sprint speed about 90.

Yeah i know, but in the end there was also a pen earlier for us, ref didn't say anything Tragic end for you but it's not a robbery

My fault , sorry

i fall for bumbs like this aswell sometimes

If you watched Neymar in the PSG/Atalanta game from a few years ago, that was exactly how Barcola played. He did everything right....but scored lol

If his finishing was even 10% better, PSG would have won 4-1. Can’t blame Enrique for that.

I mean...maybe he left at the right time considering how bad they are.
