PSG | 2016-17 Performance Thread

Look it's simple. Rabiot, Verratti and Thiago Motta are PSG starters and Herrera wouldn't be an automatic starter above any of them. Krychowiak has been a ghost and Matuidi's season has been saved by injuries to Verratti and Rabiot.

Also if you actually followed PSG you wouldn't have mentioned Krychowiak who is behind Nkunku in the pecking order, Rabiot is the one moved to the DM position if needed.

Guilty as charged for not watching every single PSG game. But that dosen't change the fact that I would take Herrera over Rabiot. Rabiot looks like a really good prospect who will probably become a much better player than Herrera in future, but there is nothing that Rabiot does that Herrera can't do or do better even.

That's an opinion, not a fact.
 
Just as you thinking Herrera can't get into PSG's midfield is an opinion.

It is not my opinion unlike you regarding Rabiot I respect Herrera and said that he wouldn't be an automatic starter. Herrera is a good player and he would start games for PSG but he wouldn't be a lock.

Ok. Fair enough. Agree to disagree. :)
 
Kante won the title with Leicester, about as close to playing for Sunderland as you could get (before their sudden rise), and he was still better than Herrera. In other words, Kante has already shown he can shine in a crap team. He's more likely to sign for Real at this stage, in any event.

Football's about opinions, and I dont think it's clear cut that Herrera is better than any of PSG's midfielders; Rabiot's only 22, so is more than likely going to improve and surpass Herrera, if he hasnt already. You mention that Verratti's not had the best of seasons, but none of PSG's players have, and the finger's being pointed an Emery, who managed to blow a league title that PSG should win every year. Compare Herrera to these players last season and it's a completely different picture (eg. Krwychowiak won the Europa League with Sevilla, and was being lauded as one of Europe's finest CMs at the time).

I agree with you on Fabinho, he would change our dynamics in midfield, and free up Pogba. He was in my top three targets this summer, with Greizman and Mbappe. We need to get in ahead of City for him.

He didn't blow anything, people should really stop with that nonsense. Monaco finished the season with 95 points which is 1 point shy from the record established by PSG with 96 points. Monaco had an historically great season, while PSG and Nice were very competitive.
