On March 20, Beijing time, in a focus battle in Ligue 1, Ligue 1 supremacy Paris was brutally bloodied by Monaco 3-0 in the away game. In this game, Messi did not go out with the team due to influenza. You know, after the Champions League was reversed by Real Madrid, Messi once became the target of attack by Paris fans, and some people even believe that Messi is the culprit of the team's exit from the Champions League! However, the battle with Monaco made the discerning people realize that Messi was not a problem in Paris at all; without Messi, the situation in Paris would only be worse! More of Paris's problems are still focused on the manager's employment, as well as the attitude of other players. It can be said that it is the performance against Monaco that makes people realize the importance of Messi.
In the battle against Monaco, Paris was suppressed by the opponent from the beginning of the game! Whether in mental state or in technical and tactical terms, the two sides are obviously not a level. Especially on the offensive end, the gap between the two sides is even more visible to the naked eye. In Messi's absence, the Paris midfielder is completely unable to organize a decent attack! You know, Paris took on Monaco and sent 4 midfielders from Vernadum, Verratti, Paredes and Pereira, but a threatening attack, even a threat to the ball, is rarely seen, such a performance, it is really not flattering. After the game, in response to the situation in Paris, Messi's old teammate and French star Henry expressed his views.
Henry said bluntly in an interview, "Paris fans booed Messi last week. How can you boo the greatest player of all time? Today without Messi, Paris has created nothing. As Henry said, despite Messi's drop in goals, Messi is still the only one in the Paris squad! Even with the rising Mbappe, Messi still has his own magic. The reason why there is no magic to reappear at Barca is that except for Messi, the other players in Paris have rarely performed creatively! And the team's coach Pochettino, there is no targeted deployment, completely relying on the personal ability of the star.
Just after the defeat to Monaco, Pochettino, who was the main culprit of the defeat, merely said: "I would like to stress again that it is completely unacceptable to start the game like this." Summarized the reasons for the team's defeat, without mentioning the technical and tactical mistakes. If it is only a bad start, then with the strength of Paris, there is also a good chance to adjust after half-time. Pochettino, however, not only did not do so, but also procrastinated on substitutions, and did not make his first adjustment until the 68th minute. With such a performance, Pochettino not only does not review himself, but also desires to continue coaching next season, which is really a bit whimsical!
In fact, it is not only Pochettino who has not acted responsibly, but even the captain of Paris, Marquinhos, has no remorse. After losing to Monaco, Marchinhos was asked if he had feelings for certain players and whether there was opposition in the dressing room, and Marquinhos gave a denial of it quite affirmatively! On the field, however, the performance of the players was exposed to everyone's eyes. Teammates falling to the ground without help, deliberately not passing the ball, abound! Among them, Marquinhos is the most obvious one. How can such a person who has no responsibility and a small heart be the captain? With so many problems, the Paris hierarchy must make trade-offs and carry out a great purge this summer to correct the ball style! Only then will Paris be able to improve next season!
