One of the novelties of this season that we did not notice last year, is that the PSG manager is making more rotations than ever in his line-ups.  No one, or almost no one, has been spared from being rotated, even Messi has had to go to the bench before the end of the game on three occasions this season.

It has become common to see how Galtier replaces Messi before the end of the match, however there is a peculiar reason why in the match against Stade Brestois, he did not take out Lionel and left him the whole game.

What reasons did Galtier give?

After the game, these were Galtier´s words: "Messi is extremely important in our way of playing.  He is the one who facilitates things, and he puts the balls to Mbappe and Neymar, ”said the French coach.
