Galtier in big trouble with Messi injured and Mbappe's frustrations on social media

Paris Saint-Germain coach Christophe Galtier has played down reports of tensions between himself and star striker Kylian Mbappé after the youngster made an inflammatory post on social media. Mbappé, 23, took to Instagram to vent his frustration on the tactics of the Ligue 1 game against Reims.

Mbappé, who has been named twice France's player of the year (in 2018 & 2019), didn't like play with his usual partners, Neymar and Messi. Instead, he played with Carlos Soler and Pablo Sarabia. In the end, this new trio couldn't do anything against Reims.

Mbappé has spoken out about his frustration with this before and this was  Galtier's reaction.  "It was a reaction in the heat of the moment, after a moment of disappointment. I spoke a lot with Kylian at the start of the season and I was very attentive to his comments when he was playing for France, saying that he felt better in Les Bleus’ attacking set-up", he said before the Champions League game against Benfica.
