I too had these same feeling whether Ramos and Messi would fit in one team, and then I realised that these player’s are pro athletes and while they may have their differences off the pitch, but on the pitch they’ll play as one team. Also I’m hoping that Messi shows some magic soon because after the hype, I’m really waiting to see him perform well on the pitch.
Great question. I am curious too. Messi needs time to recover after long flight, jet lag and international matches. I think PSG will not use him in the debut squad. If Messi plays, he will start from the bench and join as a substitution.
Ramos is still struggling to recover from injury and get his fitness back. Maybe next one month, we might see them in the squad of PSG.
PSG must win this match anyway. With such players in the squad, even a draw will be a failure. And no reason can justify the PSG players in case of failure. The only question is whether Messi will score in this match.
I bet that Messi won't play all 90 minutes and won't start the match as a player in the squad. PSG needs him for Champions League and there is no reason why they use him after the international days. They will give him time to rest.
Without Messi, with players they have, PSG will win the match and perhaps win it easily.
