Mbappe Says Messi’s Training Finishing Was Almost Impossible to Match

Lionel Messi
April 2026

Kylian Mbappe said Lionel Messi’s finishing in PSG training was so precise that it shocked even elite forwards like himself and Neymar. He recalled a session where Messi scored nine times out of ten with the exact same type of finish, leaving both of them stunned. Mbappe explained that he and Neymar were usually among the strongest finishers in training, but Messi’s execution was on another level.

Chido Obi
April 2026

Adam Lawrence insisted Chido Obi remains in a strong place despite dropping out of Manchester United’s senior picture this season.

He added that the forward has now recovered from concussion and deserves credit for handling the disappointment of reduced first-team exposure in the right way.
