Thierry Henry sent a warning to Messi and PSG, insisting balance is most important as they strive to become the top team in world football.
What did Henry say?
Paris Saint-Germain added Lionel Messi to its ranks last week after his surprise exit from Barcelona, with the Argentine committed to a two-year deal at Princes’ Park after his 21-year Camp Nou career came to a premature end. Lionel Messi joined Sergio Ramos, Georginio Wijnaldum and Gianluigi Donnarumma in signing for the French free transfer club, while Hakimi was also brought in from Inter, but Thierry Henry is adamant that big money does not guarantee the club’s success in 2021-22.
Thierry Henry, who played alongside Lionel Messi at Barça between 2007 and 2010, expressed doubts about the defensive mandated Paris Saint-Germain after their 4-2 win over Strasbourg on Saturday. The former Blaugrana and France forward said balance is the most important thing. At one point, they always talk about great players, attacking, going forward, but they need balance.
It’s about the team he played for at Barça, but people forget to point out that they haven’t conceded a lot of goals. In general, the teams that do not concede many goals are not far from the title, or even from the Champions League. When you have superhuman players it gets a little easier, but when you can see how Paris is developing at the moment, they miss too many goals for his taste to be able to go a little further. It is true that there were not enough players, but the balance is most important.
Came to the perfect place
Paris Saint-Germain will be confident to fight the Ligue 1 title back from Lille following the arrival of Lionel Messi, but their main goal for the season is to win the Champions League for the first time in their history. The Argentine International has revealed its Champions League ambitions after being represented at the Park of Princes, telling reporters that for him on a personal level he happily won another Champions League, as he said in previous years, and thinks he has arrived at the perfect a place that’s ready for it.
