PSG vs Man City: Is Man City getting the jitters to face PSG? Pep Guardiola claims Messi, Neymar and Mbappe are ‘UNSTOPPABLE’ – Pep Guardiola is worried about the prospect of facing Paris Saint-Germain’s (PSG) front three – Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, as the two teams clash in the Champions League group stage on Tuesday. Manchester City had reached the final last season, beating PSG in the semi-finals, and both teams have bolstered their squad, with PSG perhaps amazing the most impressive summer transfer outlay. The Ligue 1 giants added Lionel Messi to their ranks, who rose to stardom and won his first Ballon d’Or under Guardiola’s tutelage in Barcelona.
PSG vs Man City: Pep Guardiola said that he was short of answers on how to stop PSG’s magnificent trio when the two teams face off on Tuesday. Guardiola said, “What should we do? I don’t know. With this amount of quality, I don’t know how to stop them, they’re so good. This amount of talent makes it so difficult. We have to defend well, help each other and know we are going to suffer and have pain. It’s how you handle the pain.”
Pep Guardiola added, “They’re exceptional, all of them are so good individually, they can combine and connect. Messi speaks for himself, I don’t have to describe him. What he’s done is more than exceptional and hopefully tomorrow he can play for the benefit of the game.”
PSG vs Man City: Guardiola and Messi won 14 trophies together at Barcelona during a four-year period, including two Champions League titles. When the six-time Ballon d’Or winner’s contract expired, he was linked with a sensational switch to Man City, but eventually joined PSG after the Premier League champions had roped in Jack Grealish for a British record fee. Lionel Messi has missed PSG’s last two games with injury, but trained on Monday and is expected to feature against Guardiola.
