RB Leipzig vs PSG - Latest updates

17:15 GMT: The big RB Leipzig vs PSG preview
This season isn't going to plan for RB Leipzig. They are well off the pace in the Bundesliga and pointless in the Champions League, but they will be itching to change that on Wednesday when they welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Red Bull Arena.
Having played every team once, PSG lead Group A and are unbeaten, while Leipzig have lost away to the Parisians and Manchester City, as well as falling at home to Club Brugge.
If they are to have any hope of remaining in Europe beyond Christmas, Leipzig need to start getting some points on the board.
The home side will be without full-backs Lukas Klostermann, Marcel Halstenberg and Marcelo Saracchi, while striker Brian Brobbey is a doubt.
The bright side as far as they are concerned is that they may not have to contend with Lionel Messi, who is not in the squad due to a slight hamstring problem. Sergio Ramos, meanwhile, remains out, along with Marco Verratti and Leandro Paredes.

When PSG players ignore Messi while passing. most of the time they are missing on many goals or magical things. Its not Messi who is not performing. It's PSG who doesn't know how to use Messi. The two chances Messi missed was against CLub Brugge and one was against lyon which was a save. he scored against Leipzig from a clear cut chance. The reason messi has only 3 goals is....since PSG players doesn't create clear-cut chances for Messi he is using his individual brilliance to do stuffs. The main reason why Messi isn't scoring much is. There are 3 main mans. Messi , Mbappe, Neymar. without making sacrifices no one can do much. and messi is actually making scarifies and putting more focus in defending as well. Neymar isn't making much sacrifices. and same for mbappe. and with this they all are at even again. Messi should have been the main man not because i am looking at him as my GOAT but as a football fan. Messi creates more and if you feed him the ball more anywhere on the pitch you will have your share of goals and he will have his share of goals. and the team will finally function with every one happy. one more thing! Messi won't get to his strife until he is fully happy. that was the case in 2020. now same thing is happening. and for a shy guy like messi it's even more hard
Bro, I don't it's the players. More of tactics. Poch seems to prefer getting the ball quickly to running Mbappe n hope for the best, bypassing the wingers n midfielders. In a team which includes not only Messi, but Neymar n Verrati it's almost criminal. Hope Poch changes.

I hope this time we play as a team !!! Good luck Paris ❤️💙
bro psg are having hard time having messi cos there are 3 main mans MNM. if two made sacrifices for one eg: mbappe being the main man they will play as a team and mbappe will get goals. if neymar is the main man psg won't get 30+ goals but neymar will have more assists. and if messi is the main man he plays deep and due to his creativity he creates more for mbappe and neymar where they will get their share of goals and looking for messi in attacking position will give messi his share of goals. every attacking players can have their share of goals like that. tell me what you think!
