Real Madrid striker, Karim Benzema, has actually knocked those criticising Paris Saint-Germain star male, Lionel Messi, stating they do not know

football. This is in spite of Messi’s slow start to life in Paris Saint-Germain after he signed up with the French side last summer season. Messi dumped Barcelona for PSG in the summer, bringing an end to his glittering spell at Camp Nou.

However the Argentine superstar has not really found his feet in Paris, scoring simply one goal in 11 league games and has actually faced criticisms over his efficiencies for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

Benzema thinks Messi is simply going through a ‘duration of adaptation’ at his brand-new club, having spent all his life at Barcelona.

“How won’t he prosper? It is just a period of adjustment, since he is not scoring a lot of objectives,’ Benzema informed TF1.

“But enjoy what he does on the pitch.

“In any case, you can not criticise a player like that, he who criticises Messi, understands nothing about football in reality!”
