Messi Is On Late Maradona’s Level – Pochettino

PSG coach, Mauricio Pochettino has come out to say that Lionel Messi has been judged unfairly at the club. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Messi‘s first season in France has been nothing but a transitional process for the Argentine, so he doesn’t see any reason why he should be judged by it.

Poch added that Messi is on the same as late Diego Maradona, so he cannot be judged like regular footballers.

His words, “To judge Messi in this way is unfair,”

“You can’t talk about Messi that way. It is like when I talk about Maradona. I’m not talking about an ordinary player. Messi is on the same level as Diego Maradona.”

“I have no doubts about his quality. Messi has enough talent to do what he has to do. He will do it. Next season will be completely different for him. It was a year of learning, and not just on a professional level coming to Paris Saint-Germain, in a new league and with new teammates, but also on a family level. You must take that into account. It is a significant upheaval that can affect a player.”

“It is clear that the move from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain was a change in which a process of adaptation was necessary,”

“Certain circumstances did not allow him to feel as comfortable as in Barcelona, where he had spent 20 years, where he had been the flagship player.”
