Well said and it is right that Messi and Neymar made Mbappe a much better player in regards to creating space and positioning for him such that he can score easier. The number of assists that Neymar and Messi had combined were impressive and most of those assists landed in the feet of Mbappe who then scored his goal. I don't know I think especially the fans got something wrong there, but I have also wondered why. They have massively disrespected Messi while he was the first or second best total scorer in Ligue 1. What did they expect from him?

Kylian Mbappe also benefited from these players more than they did from him. All of that stopped when Neymar Junior stopped passing the ball to him and cutting Kylian Mbappes inward runs.
Still not happy Paris Saint Germans had these setof players and couldn't win the Champions League. I will place blames on the coach at most Pochetino, he is more conversant with the utilization of young players to big names.
Luis Enrique would have done better with the trio. Mbappe needs to make top choices else, he will have his career in the dust.

I tend to doubt that Luis Enrique would really have done any better although I agree and I am definitely not a fan of Pochettino either. He is doing the same thing with Chelsea now and I wonder what he thought he would be doing there. He most likely thought he would be competing with Manchester City for the Premier League title.

I also think that Neymar and Messi have done a great job in assisting Mbappe. Messi has done that more than he ever used to do it before. But Mbappe feels like the king and while Messi respected that most of the time even though he knew he himself was the GOAT, Neymar can also have an ego, but I think that's quite normal. Mbappe has to work on himself.

If I'm remembering correctly, Luis Enrique won his first and only Champions League as a coach whenn he managed Barcelona and these players mentioned where all in the Club.
So give me reasons why Luis Enrique won't make that up once again. PSG do not have a deadly squad no more, they might even be a weaker team to Manchester United, yest Manchester United are complete dicks.

Lionel Messi benefited from french as more of them wanted him to win the Ballon d'or since he moved to PSG that same season. Kylian had his egos and pride up, Lionel Messi achieved lots at his age, I expected him to be humble. When he moves outside of Pari we will know if he can work hard to win the Ballon d'or.
