Jakarta –
Performance Lionel Messi Of Paris Saint Germain is now beginning to gain recognition. La Pulga is rated as a better assist than as a chance solver.

Former French national team player, Bixente Lizarazu, who revealed that there was excessive judgment against Lionel Messi. His assist contribution could be the answer to why Messi can be considered quite okay at PSG.
“I think we overdid it with Messi. I don’t think we should forget, even if it’s Messi, there is an adaptation period. It takes at least six months,” Lizarazu told Telefoot.
“Messi was at Barcelona for 20 years, the city, the club, the habits, the game that was always focused on him. He’s at a new club, he’s got new team-mates and he’s been slow to get back to his best.”
“I think the adaptation needs to be done. And we have to find Messi’s best performance. Against Saint-Etienne, we found that he is technically proficient and his quality is more of a passer than a goalscorer. That’s what was missing today, even though he has already scored five goals in La Liga. Champions,” he added.
Overall, Messi has appeared 23 times in all competitions for PSG. He has recorded 7 goals and 11 assists for the French capital club.
