Paris Saint-Germain’s bizarre season was perhaps summed up perfectly on Wednesday night at the Stade du Moustoir.

In a dull Ligue 1 clash with Lorient, Mauricio Pochettino’s side were held to a 1-1 draw in a game that did little to suggest that the Parisian giants were firing on all cylinders.

Yet rather than Mauro Icardi’s last-minute goal or the home side’s impressive point from the match, international viewers were drawn to the French league for all the wrong reasons when one of PSG’s stars made a complete full of himself.

Sergio Ramos, in only his second league appearance of the game, was brought on at half time and lasted just 41 minutes before walking back off the pitch after receiving his second yellow card.

While the former Spain and Real Madrid captain is somewhat notorious for his ability to collect cards, Ramos’ performance did a good job of encapsulating PSG’s stuttering season. A number of stars arrived at the club in the summer to take the club to the next level, but have instead turned the French giants into a laughing stock.

PSG’s silly season of summer signings
Back at the start of the season, PSG were praised across the world for their fantastic summer business.

Lionel Messi had arrived from Barcelona, Ramos from Madrid, while Georginio Wijnaldumm and Gianluigi Donnarumma had also made the move to Paris from Liverpool and Milan respectively. All, remarkably on free transfers.

However, to date, none of the four stars has really made a great impression on Pochettino’s team.

Ramos’ contributions have already been noted, but it’s worth bearing in mind that Wijnaldum has struggled to nail down a starting spot in the side and Donnarumma has made just eight starts from the first 19 league games of the season.

Messi, unquestionably, was signed to take PSG to the next level, but with just one goal and few assists in his first 11 league games

it’s hard to truly believe that the Argentina international is taking his new job all that seriously.

Perhaps the only summer signing that does seem to be doing well is right wing-back Achraf Hakimi, who already has three goals and three assists in 18 Ligue 1 games this season. Which may be down to the simple fact that he was the only signing made in the summer that was actually needed.

PSG will still walk to another Ligue 1 title and they may yet get their house in order to challenge for the Champions League, but as things stand these new high-profile additions seem to be less of a bonus for Pochettino and far more of a burden.

Kingcalls:


U certainly don't know people the meaning of the word bossing... even mbappe is bossing messi, talk less of other players in other teams....

DareyFortified:



Lmao

Sorry which stat will favour Ronaldo over Messi?

You must be drunk.

Every available stat that exists and will ever exist will always place Messi above Ronaldo.

It's funny how people only compare Ronaldo with Messi and not with the likes of Pele or Maradona who are considered all time greatest players.

Think the problem with you Ronaldo fans is the emotional affection you guys have for Ronaldo that has block your sense of reasoning. Cus the fact is glaring.

DareyFortified:


Yes you are right he is not in form... But Ronaldo that is in form is still trying to catch up with his goals contribution for the year.

And no other player has had a successful season than Messi this year.

I know you guys are saying all this because he is the one that set the standard. But you have to him be. He is the GOAT.

Asour:



Both of you have points but you don't get him.

He is saying Messi isn't totally a 'flop' since he is PSG's top scorer in the UCL with more goals than Mbappe in the UCL.
Saying they chose to ignore that.

Messi has done quite poorly in the Ligue 1 though but I have a feeling even if he scores well there it won't be highly rated. Since it's a 'farmers league'.
But let's see.

Mariangeles:
Messi turned out to be the biggest flop of the season’s signings.

It was suspected that he couldn’t do better outside Barcelona, and now, it is proven to be right.

obembet:


PSG has been doing well before Messi arrived.

spy24:

Kingcalls:


He dint improve psg cos his goals were worthless ... they signed him to improve the team but the team hasn't improved.... they finished 2nd in their group... they still wud hv finished second if he dint join dem ... finishing top was their target , so to avoid a strong team in the round of 16... Ronaldo on the other hand scored goals that sent them to the top against all odds

Asour:


You are correct about PSG's project for Messi & them (PSG) not topping the group.

However that's all you're correct about. The CR7 point you made is heavily laced with bias. Why?

You never talked about his failure with Juventus UCL aspirations. Juventus barely qualified for UCL this season with him there. They were routinely outed at Round 16 UCL with the supposed Mr Champions league there. Now without him (in UCL) they topped the group (that had current winners Chelsea). You said nothing about CR7's failed project with Juventus at UCL till he left.

But here you are critical of Messi's UCL outing at PSG despite being their top UCL scorer — even while playing a game less than Mbappe.

My point : Messi's outing at PSG in League 1 has been poor. His UCL : Meh. But apply your assessments consistently NOT only when it 'favours' CR7.

Cheers.

Messi isn't happy is obvious. PSG don't have a Good coach.

seunny4lif:

COPA AMERICA WAS A 4 YEARS GAME BUT TURNED TO 2 YEARS BECAUSE THEY WANT MESSI TO WIN THEN THEY TURN IT TO EVERY YEAR SO MESSI CAN WIN IT

COMPARE PLAYERS MESSI PLAYED, THEY SHOULD HAVE WON 4 COPA AND 1 WORLD CUP

ceematics:

And all these were achieved at Barca abi, outside Barca nko? Ronaldo achieved all his records at 3 different leagues,no player I repeat no player has done such.

Asour:



What facts?

Remove CR7 goals and Juventus would not qualify for UCL?

How then did they qualify 7 straight years without CR7 before he joined?
How did they top Chelsea in their group ' without CR7's goals' this season?

When did Topping group in UCL become the prime definition for UCL success for a team like Juventus.
A team that did not fall short of quarters before CR7 came in, dropped in R16 through CR7's spell.
What statistics does that show?

Topping group or not IS not a defining UCL statistics. It's good BUT not the end.

Listen to this:

In 2018/2019,
Liverpool were 2nd in their group losing 3 games (including against 'minnows' Red star Belgrade).
PSG topped the group.

Guess what ?

Liverpool won the UEFA CL. After a glorious comeback against Barcelona — who 'topped' their group.
LFC topped their group in UCL 20/21— BUT didn't even get to the Semis. Which LFC UCL would you prefer?

In 2018/19 Barcelona & Juventus topped their groups.

Barcelona only lost 1 game in the tournament even.

See that group topping doesn't mean everything?

Honestly I don't know how all these Messi fans think,
Messi have been quite useless in the League and they'll tell you that the coach is a bad coach,,,,if the coach was really that Bad, Mbappe won't have 16 goals and 14 assists, but since Messi can't score, Pochettino is suddenly a bad coach....Under Pochettino, Kane was banging goals anyhow, Pochettino wasn't a bad coach then, but now that Messi can't score, those Messi fans have labelled him a bad coach

Most of u dont even know juventus were knocked out of the round of 16 in 2016, quarter final in 2018.... juventus don't perform in champions league ...in the 7 yrs they won the league without Ronaldo, they only only got to the final 2 times , the remaining 5 was either round of 16 or quater final... so now u expect juventus to win the league forever or what?? U should know that teams decline after many years of dominance... even this Bayern u see dominating bundesliga will stop winning the league maybe in a couple of years time ... its called the law of diminishing return... even if Ronaldo never joined juve , they wud hv lost the league in 2020 .... cant u see that those players in juve that took them to those finals had left.... pirlo , pogba , tevez , evra , dani Alves, Barzargli, mandzukic , diego Costa, younger bonucci chiellini and buffon , cancelo , camorenesi , dybala lost form and with injury problems, khedira , in form Alex sandro, in form matuidi, inform pjanic vidal .... they were replaced by bernadeschi , morata , kean , mckennie , danilo , Rabiot , old bonucci and chiellini ( injury problems) schezny, Rugani , kuluchevski , Bentacur,...very weak players and thats y they are struggling now... if Ronaldo was still there , they will b in the top 2 or 3 now ... Ronaldo scored 29 goals in 31 games ... only Lewandowski had a better goal ratio in the top 5 euro leagues last season...
