Fans label Sergio Ramos a ‘finished player’ after horrendous defending against Lens

Ramos has mostly struggled to regain his top form since moving to France and his performance against Lens is not helping his case.

Fans are calling Sergio Ramos 'finished' following his performance against Lens in Ligue 1.

Paris Saint-Germain are top of the table, but were beaten 3-2 by second placed Lens on Sunday evening.

Despite a poor first season, Ramos has started 20 games this season so far, as a key part of Christophe Galtier's 3-4-3 system that has brought success so far.

Fans were quick to criticise the Spaniard's poor defensive display after seeing the role he played in Lens taking the lead.

Lens struck first in the fifth minute thanks to Przemyslaw Frankowski before PSG hit back as Hugo Ekitike drew his side level in the eighth minute.

Just before the half hour mark, PSG fumbled an attack and were quickly sliced open by a swift counter attack.

As a pass was fired into Lois Openda, Ramos came flying in on the halfway line to try and win the ball, but his over-eagerness saw the striker go clean through, before completely selling Marquinhos before scoring the second - it certainly was some poor defensive play from two top players.

Fans reacted to Ramos, criticising his poor efforts as the second goal was scored by Openda.

One fan simply commented: "State of Ramos"

Whilst another claimed: "Bayern are gonna cook these guys"

And another called him 'more finished than Ronaldo'.

Alexis Claude-Maurice added a third just after halftime to condemn PSG to their first league defeat of the campaign.

The French giants have the Round of 64 of the French Cup to contend with next, but then six straight Ligue 1 games await them before they face off against Bayern Munich in the Champions League Round of 16.

With Lionel Messi returning as a World Cup champion, it will be interesting to see if the famed trio of Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe can all click back into the form they showed prior to the tournament in Qatar - if they can then they will be contenders for sure.

Although, if they have any hope of finally clinching the Champions League trophy, Ramos and co will have to defend much better than they have tonight so far.
