Some fans whistle as Lionel Messi’s name is announced as Paris Saint-Germain’s season hits new low | CNN

Ugh, what's going on with PSG right now? I mean, Lionel Messi is still scoring goals and making assists like a pro, but it doesn't seem like that matters when the team is losing games at home. And those fans whistling his name? Come on... it's just not cool . Coach Galtier is trying to stay calm about it, but I think he's right – Messi needs help from his teammates. And now they're facing a tough week ahead with Nice and Lens coming up... fingers crossed they can turn things around . The Champions League exit was a big blow too, that's not helping matters . Maybe PSG just needs to focus on the present and stop worrying about winning the league?

idk what's more embarrassing for Messi... getting roasted by his own fans or having his coach blame the team's struggles on some vague "mentality" . come on, guys, it's not like PSG didn't make the playoffs last year and all they need is a little luck to catch up with Lens and Marseille?

ugh this is so frustrating i mean i love messi and all but come on guys can't we just support him instead of booing? like he's been carrying the team with his goals and assists and it feels like nobody else is stepping up to help out. and yeah that champions league exit was a huge blow, but ugh psg needs to get its act together ASAP or else they'll be done for ️

psg is having such a bad season lol . like, messi's still scoring goals and helping out but it feels like the whole team is holding him back . and can u believe those fans were whistling at him when he came on? that's some harsh criticism right there. i think coach galtier's got a point though, other players gotta step up their game if they wanna help messi carry the team to victory . it's gonna be interesting to see how psg performs in the next few games... they need to turn things around ASAP

Ugh, this is getting ridiculous ... Like seriously, who whistles at Messi's name? That's just savage . I get it, the team hasn't been doing great, but come on, it's Leo Messi we're talking about here! The guy's a legend and he's still scoring goals like crazy . It's not his fault the rest of the team is struggling. And yeah, Bayern Munich got the better of them in the Champions League... that was a tough one to swallow .

I don't know what's more annoying, the jeering or the fact that coach Galtier isn't taking it personally . Like, if I were him, I'd be like "Hey, my star player is getting booed by my own fans? That sucks" . And Laurent Blanc's comment about Champions League mentality... yawn ... it's a bit obvious, isn't it?

Man, it's like Messi is getting all this hate from his own fans ! I get why people would be disappointed, but 18 goals and 17 assists? That's still a tonne of contribution from the guy . And come on, he's not even fully settled in yet, it's early days for him at PSG. The team needs to rally around him, you feel? The Champions League exit was a tough blow, but they can't let that define them now . They need to bounce back from this and show the world what they're made of . And I gotta say, if PSG doesn't turn it around, I think it's gonna be hard to see them make any noise in the rest of the season .
