Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League group-stage opener this season didn't go to plan. With their spectacular MNM trident of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe starting together for the first time, expectations were high.
They could only manage a 1-1 draw with Club Brugge though, leaving a lot to be desired.
None of the three forwards scored either, with Ander Herrera being the unlikely source of their only goal. Since, the MNM have come in for criticism.
"Neymar and Messi didn't help," wrote L'Equipe after the game, as they evaluated the performance of the French side's players. But they weren't alone. Omar da Fonseca, a beIN Sports commentator, was even more scathing.
"[Georginio] Wijnaldum and [Leandro] Paredes were non-existent," Da Fonseca said. "If they want to play with these three forwards up front, PSG have to have midfielders who can handle the ball, with a certain idea of football.
"You can't expect them to be Xavi [Hernandez] or [Andres] Iniesta, but they need something else.
"Messi needs the ball and to be able to dominate the game. He's not going to help to create space from an athletic point of view.
"Despite having a dream trio with Neymar and Mbappe, PSG's attacking output left a lot to be desired. This will hold them back at some point. They'll have to resolve it. When they lose the ball, Neymar, Messi and Mbappe have to take a taxi back."

The solution for this problem is the formation of play 4-2-3-1. Reason: copy Bayern format and be successful. Like Lewandowksi let Mbappe play alone forward. He is super fast and has lethal predatory instinct. Allow him to stay ahead always like a poacher and dont tell him to fall back for defence, just one player doesnt make difference defending whilst in attack positon he can kill the game once an opportunity strike within a period of 90 minutes. Now Neymar, Messi and Di Maria should develop a format to supply him the ball thru the danger D zone. This way the teamcan help him score plenty of goals. He is still a kid and kids enjoy scoring goals. He will be happy enough to understand the path made for him to acquire Ballan D Or as imminent. Hence he might stay back, who knows? Another important change is to replace Navas with Donarrumma in UCL games as though he is good in grass balls he cannot stop high balls, hence he concedes. Donnarumma has shown that superiority in EURO's. Nuno looks good, fast and strong. Seen recently. He should replace left back. Wignhalldin looked lousy and worn out recently. Camavinga would have been a better purchase which Madrid stole. Hakami looks good too. Dunno how Ramos is gonna perform when fit? Main man in mildfield in Verratti. Thats all.
