I hate how often he goes down. I get it he's the size of a 6 year old playing grown men, but it's not fair on everyone if the kid keeps dropping when a gust of wind comes.
I agree.World class
It's a shame his prime has been wasted in Ligue 1 and for an underwhelming Italian NT.
One of the very best MFs of his generation.
Don't forget Eric Choupo-Moting.Very few teams have that level of depth. di María, Icardi and Sarabia are very good players in their own right.
it's a legitimate question, but Mbappe at the very least would have been a positive, Neymar as well. Sarabia was decent but it wasn't a great game from him. Good luck to Draxler getting back in the team though, he is falling by the wayside, deservedly so.They looked like a proper team tonight.
I wonder if they would look as intense with Neymar, Mbappe and Cavani. I doubt it..
If those guys had played Madrid would've been in for a proper spanking. They didnt have an issue with their intensity when they beat Liverpool last season when those guys played.They looked like a proper team tonight.

What about when they lost to Liverpool? They were a shambles at Anfield.If those guys had played Madrid would've been in for a proper spanking. They didnt have an issue with their intensity when they beat Liverpool last season when those guys played.
It was the first match of the season in CL and first of Tuchel in CL with PSG too, they hadn't found the right system at this point, scandalous mentality too...What about when they lost to Liverpool? They were a shambles at Anfield.
It was early with Tuchel and they had Rabiot-Di Maria in midfieldWhat about when they lost to Liverpool? They were a shambles at Anfield.
Verratti didnt play that match and he's the key piece in their build up.What about when they lost to Liverpool? They were a shambles at Anfield.
They are all important arent they. Neymar rips teams apart, Verratti gives them great control even against the best teams around. For example had Neymar played against us last season i think the tie would've been over in the first leg. Had Verratti played against Pool at Anfield last season they'd have stood a far greater chance. Both are immense. I think this was best displayed against Pool in Paris last season where both played well and Pool were well beaten.It was early with Tuchel and they had Rabiot-Di Maria in midfield
Make no mistake, Verratti is PSG's most important player, has been for years. Even with Neymar and Mbappé, if Verratti is missing or isn't playing well, PSG will be shite
If Verratti plays well, they look good even with Choupo-Moting
Verratti is harder to replace. If they lose Neymar, they still have Di Maria, who is not neymar but a great player in his own right with similar strenghts.

All PSG players are a CL away from getting the credit they deserve and i dont see to many squads better than theirs. So many of them get questioned because of that. some of these blokes are amazing footballers and have always been. Mediocrity can coast along in the prem and become highly rated due to the publicity of the league. They sadly dont have that privilege. Its amazing to think some question the likes of Neymar, Verratti, Mbappe and Thiago Silva.
He's up there but Thiago is better at dribbling and passing out the press imoThe most press resistant player in the world.
You'll find its normally the other blokes that cost them in those games more times than not. Last season it was Kimbembe, the season before it was Marquinhos. However regardless someone will find a way to relate it to them not being that good.All those players except Verratti have proven themselves in better leagues/CL/international level. They are the ones coasting atm by playing in an inferior league and coming up short against the big boys in Europe season after season
Nah, Verratti's ball retention is of the absolute highest order. He's done things ive never seen on a football pitch.He's up there but Thiago is better at dribbling and passing out the press imo
All of those players including Verratti are well proven in delivering top performances in the CL. Verratti has dominated top class opposition time and time again.All those players except Verratti have proven themselves in better leagues/CL/international level.

his prime years.Is he really going to spend all his career in France? That would be unfortunate.
Yeah I don’t think we can ever class him as top tier spending the majority of his career in France. Shame really.. he’d make light work playing for Barca.He will never be top tier, and will remain a level below the likes of Mbappe and Neymar who use PSG as a stepping stone.
Tbf given the short career lifespan of footballers you can probably say its not enough.Absolute crying shame, feckin’ waste of a career. I have no respect for players like this.
I don’t care about the money and it being Paris. Have some balls and test yourself in the best leagues!
I mean regardless where he goes he’s going to be earning £140k a week minimum. How much is enough?
Earn amazing money and reach your full potential in a proper league.
