It changes the narrative.
I mean, he's kind of always been a bit of the leader anyway.
And he's a bit lucky on that, the assist for Valverde, because without the deflection, I don't think he leads to the goal like he did.
But at least he's there and he's coming at you with the ball.
And really, I don't think sometimes we probably don't praise enough
players like him, like Lamine, like Schalke, like, you know, Kvass Kelja last night, or even Barcola and Olise on Tuesday night too.
And I know the game right now is a lot about physicality and pace and, you know, having those kind of bodies.
But when you see those dribblers who play the game very differently and there are not that many left, to be honest, I think it's beautiful.
And I'm glad that he still has a key role like that to play in a game of this calibre.
I thought so.
And then I think he hits it really well too.

10 out of 10 for the hat trick.
But it's just the difference between the three goals and the way he took it.
And like you mentioned before, his football IQ and intelligence, but also the movement that he has and that right foot, left foot, whether it's a sombrero and then the volley, it's just really incredible.
I mean, it's not a 5-2 game anyway, for sure.
I thought PSG was still outstanding in a lot of things that they did.
