By praising fellow superstars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, Lionel Messi has taken steps to reduce tensions in the Paris Saint-Germain front three. The relationship between Mbappe and Neymar is rocky, to say the least. The former recently acknowledged that the two are ‘hot and cold’ after a contentious start to the season on who would take penalties.
The results so far give no indication that anything is wrong. PSG are undefeated in Ligue 1, and their strike three has scored 19 goals and provided 14 assists in only eight games this season. Messi revealed to TUDN that he couldn’t be more happier to be working with the two gifted forwards.
On Mbappe, he began: “Kylian is a different player, a beast who is very strong in one-on-one, who goes into space, who is very fast, who scores a lot of goals. He is a complete player and he has proved it for years, and in the years to come, he will certainly be among the best.”

“With Neymar we know each other by heart, we enjoyed a lot of time together in Barcelona,” Messi said. “I would have liked to have been able to enjoy that for longer at Barcelona, but life found us again in Paris, we are happy to be together, I love playing with him, being with him on a day-to-day basis.”
