Henry: Messi Is Isolated At PSG

France and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry feels Lionel Messi is being isolated at Paris Saint-Germain and the Parisians could be getting more from the ex-Barcelona man.

The Argentine is still adapting to Ligue 1, having not scored any goal in four domestic appearances so far this season, with some being critical of his output in the Leage 1

"He [Messi] is isolated, he is on the ball less," Henry told RMC Sport. "I wouldn't say he's sad, but he's isolated. I prefer him through the middle.

"I'm having trouble with Leo out on the right. In the middle, he can set the tempo. Something needs to be found in order to get Mbappe, Neymar and Messi to play together."

The former Arsenal striker who once played with Messi at Barcelona for three years from 2007-2010 continued to question Messi's positioning under PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino.

"I don't think he can make the difference on the right, but then I don't have the exact details from the tactical standpoint," Henry continued.

"Obviously when you stay high up and you get out of the way, you won't have an impact. Then you have fewer balls going towards him."

Henry claimed that the current PSG team belongs to Kylian Mbappe, but insisted the side should be looking more towards Messi than the French youngster.

"Messi doesn't speak a lot, he speaks with the ball," Henry said. "For now, it's Kylian's team. Kylian is the one who's making it shine most of all. The ball goes more towards him.

"At any single moment there can only be one conductor, otherwise you can't play at the same tempo. And in this team, there are too many conductors."
