It is a duel that will fascinate crowds. Sunday afternoon (6 p.m.), Paris Saint-Germain will challenge Inter Miami in the round of 16 of the Club World Cup. First in group B, the reigning European champion will find Lionel Messi and his band, which finished second in group A. A match synonymous with reunion and that a certain Jérôme Rothen is already a lot.

In his program Rothen ignites, the former PSG player (2004-2010) is looking forward to battles with the Pulga: “Revenge? I don't know how to call this match. But how beautiful the story! How beautiful the story! We didn't think it was going to end like that. Even thought he was finishing far from Paris Saint-Germain“Did he thus drop in remarks reported by RMC Sport.

Rothen Fracasse Messi

He then continued by being very vehement with the 2022 world champion: “Lack of bowl, first major competition and first edition of the Club World Cup, you find Paris Saint-Germain Champion of Europe against you. But this is the best way for Parisians and for Paris Saint-Germain to show Leo Messi that the club has grown since he left. Just for that, I want PSG to put a good one in Messi and Miami. But really! That the supporters come with their whistles that they had bought for the Olympic Games in order to whistle Leo Messi with Argentina but since he did on it he did not come. There it will be an opportunity in the United States.”

The former French international, however, reduced his remarks by recognizing the immense talent of the native of Rosario: “He can win ten titles in the Champions League, he has eight times the Ballon d'Or, we are nobody to talk about the career of Leo Messi. But in these cases, nobody can get up to him because he may be the best player in history. Even Zidane, Leo Messi he has two in the left leg.“

A lack of respect and a low investment pointed out

His wrong? Have lacked respect for the club according to Rothen: “Everyone is open to criticism. Especially when you got fucked up from the face of the world in Paris Saint-Germain for two years when it was PSG that saved you. Already your salary, because Barcelona put you outside by no longer being able to pay you and because no club in Europe allowed you to touch so much and stay at the very high level to win the World Cup. We understood very well that that's why you came to Paris.”

“But why behind you complain? Why do you say that you put you outside and that the club has not respected you? But you, have you respected people here? He did not respect anyone and even less the French because he put shots until February. So he was courageous, he had to go on the other side in the United States to dismantle Paris Saint-Germain and France. Her story and the fact that her family was unhappy, do you know where she lived? You know Paris and the surroundings of Paris, they lived in Neuilly in a 500m2 house, protected from everyone and with a private school for their children. And you think he was bored. No, we must not make us believe that!“He tackled.

All before concluding: “Even that (his games) was fucking mouth. When I said that for two years, I did all the Leo Messi matches at the Parc des Princes, I did not miss one. When I saw him walk … After of course that when he has the ball in his feet, all the lights light up and the stadium lights up because he has genius that guy and incredible talent. But the investment was very insufficient in Paris Saint-Germain. It is not me, Jérôme Rothen, who will teach people that. Everyone saw him. And those who don't want to say it is that they don't have cojones because it's Leo Messi.“
