This time last year, one of the footballing duo was forced to leave the place where he thought he would end up, while the other returned to the place where he wanted to end up. The one who went to a new place struggled last season, both with the team's spoiled brats and the
commander-in-chief
Restrictions on his movement have left him with "only" 6 goals and 14 assists in the league in a full season in his new surroundings. The last time he scored six goals in a season was when he was 18 years old. The other one returned to his old stomping grounds, and due to various problems within the team, he led the team with no regrets, and finally managed to qualify for the UEFA Cup in sixth place after a very hard time. However, the king of popularity still managed to score 18 league goals and 3 assists in one season, although he has not scored more than 20 goals in a single season for 12 years.
But by this
new season
(22/23), these two sand field veterans suddenly wind and water turn, one was last season absolute main force into a water fountain administrator, and another suddenly demonic eruption, shooting into the ball passes the ball assists every foot is full of creativity, the opening of the season so far for the stop has been 8 goals and 8 assists, compared to the last season appeared in 34 games (all events) "only"! "11 goals and 14 assists, I believe that the end of the season next year may be able to surpass the first season's record.

For comparison, I will use the performance data to see why

Suddenly in this season, "the spirit of the well blowing", the wind completely overshadowed Mbappe and the

And?
Paris Saint-Germain welcomes the 21/22 season in grand style!

Arriving with the illusion that they could make this luxury squad even more unbeatable, they ended the season with only the Ligue 1 title, the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue.

The team's leadership was not happy with the team's failure to reach the round of sixteen in the league and fired

Pochettino was replaced by Galti, who is well known in France. Just for the sake of comparing the two seasons

It was only when they realized that the then PSG PoC had to deal with the toughest one in the team because he had to work with the most difficult one in the team.

The lack of firmness in positioning makes
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
In an awkward position throughout the season.
If we look back at the profile.
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
In as many as 26 games in Ligue 1, he played 10 games as a single striker, 7 games as a right winger, 6 games as a striker and 1 game as a right winger. From such information it is possible to show that Posco is using

because

The uncertainty in the position of the

In goal-scoring efficiency falls short of expectations. If you look further, last season
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
The shot/90 figure was 3.72 while the shot on goal/90 was only 1.17. Numbers like that do make one wonder
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
Is it not working, but in contrast
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
Being able to have 1.17 hits per game in the position he is placed in, especially as a position where he is not the main goal-scorer, is already very good. It's like asking De Bruyne to finish a season with more than 25 goals to qualify, wouldn't it be a bit harsh? But in this season Galti's rehiring, getting reasonable setups and assignments
Lionel Messi (1987-), Argentine footballer
Just upped his shot stats to have 4.87 shots on goal/90, while shots on goal/90 rose to 2.49, easily five league goals in just nine games, and is believed to soon surpass last season's record of six goals in a single season.

In addition to shot efficiency.

s passing numbers are also more efficient this season than last. For example, key passes per game, in last season

The data obtained for the "assist specialists" is quite good, but the positioning is better this season!

Still went from averaging 2.64 to 2.73. One other statistic worth checking out is

's PPA (success rate of passes into the box) numbers, where last season he provided just 3.77 per game, he surprisingly contributed as much as 5.45 this season, which was

Both SCA and GCA also improved in this season, and all sorts of data suggests that the

Under Galti's guidance it seems that in the late Barcelona period, he became the decision maker who dominated the stadium.
