He got fed up, the harsh criticism of Thierry Henry to Messi, Mbappe and Neymar
Lionel Messi heard some unexpected criticism once again, coming from Thierry Henry.
It is true that PSG won against Troyes, but it is also true that Paris Saint-Germain showed worrying defensive flaws, they also showed those flaws in the UEFA Champions League, against Maccabi Haifa.
It is an absolute reality that Paris Saint-Germain is the best or at least the second best team in the world, thanks to the current level of Lionel Messi, and obviously Neymar and Mbappe as well.

Now, despite the great moment, Thierry Henry criticizes and gives a tactical explanation of why PSG are defending so badly, and according to legend, it could be the fault of Messi, Mbappe and Neymar Jr.
'I'm not trying to find an excuse for the three strikers. But when Paris play a five-man defense with wingers, it allows all three, and in particular Neymar, from time to time, to come back and defend.' , explained the legend himself. 'But those at the top didn't even have time to get back together with their team since each time they went to the sides'.
What else did Henry said?
‘When the extremes are there, they run into the opposite side, that forces the rival team to play in the middle so that they (Mbappé, Neymar and Messi) go down less quickly. Last year they defended with seven and the three stayed ahead,’ said the legend himself.
