Lionel Messi was booed by his own PSG fans last night. Who on earth do those people think they are, exactly?

This isn’t funny because Lionel Messi deserves to be booed, it just reinforces that PSG fans are spoiled brats.

Imagine having the audacity to boo Messi when his name is announced on the screen as part of your starting XI. Well, you don’t need to imagine it, because that’s what PSG fans are like these days.
The Parisians have now lost consecutive home matches in Ligue 1 and failed to score in either of those defeats. No wonder the PSG fans are furious, but surely they can find another target for their frustrations? Messi has 13 goals and 13 assists this season in the French top-flight after just 24 appearances. Maybe they should direct their anger at the coach?
What do you think of the situation at PSG? Is Messi better served moving away from the French capital at the end of this season? PSG’s next test is away to Nice, before Lens (who currently occupy second place in the table) visit the Parc des Prince.
