3 of top 4 were on a team together and they didn’t even sniff a Champions League title. Strong statement on individuals not winning trophies in world football.
That front 3 would not have won the UCL even with a bald manager of your choice with prime Milan backline and the best 3 work horse CMs of your choice + every refree decision going your way. Not in today’s football anyway.
MNM occupy same spaces when you let them loose. This is like Cancelo x Grealish problem but on steriods.
Exact same thing happened to me. It’s surprising how playing for a team like that really does feel a bit like wasted time for a lot of players. Not in terms of money but just general relevance.
All 3 of MSN were in their prime at the time, while Messi and Neymar were already past their prime when they played together with Mbappé at PSG. And 2015 Barca had a much better midfield than 2022 PSG.

This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen
It took me a full minute to figure out wtf you meant. “Mbappe was never in barca…? And barca won CL titles…?Huh? OOOOH YEAHHhh, PSG…”
Same. Messi at PSG still feels like a fever dream.

Man if Mbappe had gone to Madrid two years ago he’d be so fucking scary
3 in top 7 won the UCL together 🥹
