The Champions League is back, the only trophy that PSG has not been able to win in recent years, even though the efforts put in to win it have been too great. The streets will not forget how Messi once agreed to play in Paris. If a player like Messi is successfully brought in and still fails, what else should PSG do?
However, it cannot be denied that football is very different from mathematics, there is still the possibility of winning there. For example, not this year, but with the club management intensively making improvements, it seems only a matter of time that the team with Mbappe at the center will win the trophy.
After all, we know that Mbappe is still a native of Paris, of course he wants to give the best for this team, what’s more he can do it. Maybe this is also what made him persist in continuing to reject proposals from his dream club, there was a good intention there to give him a farewell gift that would always be remembered, which was none other than the first European trophy.
We all know how PSG failed by gathering all the star players available, where the dressing room could not contain the high egos. Now, with Enrique all the big egos gone, stability is starting to appear in the dressing room, even though we all know it will be very difficult to win anything with this season’s players.
Tactically, the team’s game with Enrique actually doesn’t have anything special there, all lines still move the same, the wing-backs play wide, ending with the individual skills of the three front players. Even though it is ordinary, this game can still be enjoyed, especially the moments where Zairy-emery controls the midfield, a powerful young talent.
Apart from that, PSG’s two wing attackers can also be said to be the best in the world, with Mbappe on the left and Dembele on the right, there is no reason to lose in creating opportunities.
The thing is, all these players are still human, we never know when all these players will play badly, and when that happens there are still no answers there.
It must be admitted that the team has not played their best football at European level, still far below fans’ expectations. Apart from playing in a hellish group, we also know that in terms of quality this team should be able to play better football. From various lines, there is no reason to say Dortmund is better.
However, this result is very different from the domestic competition where the team only lost once throughout the season, a solid fundamental for building a strong team in the next few years. Moreover, this team is not dependent on one or two players, in terms of quality everything is almost even.
Despite everything, the Champions League competition can be said to be just a matter of luck in meeting who next, as long as this team does not meet Real Madrid, Arsenal or Manchester City in the last eight draw, there is a greater chance of winning the trophy there, because with many matches experienced certainly changed the team to be much more mature and developed than the current team.
Of course, by scoring goals. The three words closest to Mbappe, as a superstar who plays up front, is an obligation for him to bring the team to win the match.
Even so, Mbappe has actually contributed more so far, by his presence on the field without doing anything, he must have been guarded by two players, considered a threat. That is a contribution that is not available in the data, but is real.
Apart from that, it is not uncommon for Mbappe to provide a cross for his friend, or just tap-in a sliding pass, after running tens of meters, also checking several players to get a moment. The problem is, Kolo Moani is not an easy sticker to score goals, we know that.
After all, we shouldn’t doubt his contribution to the team. Even though they failed in their project to collect star players, that doesn’t mean PSG made the same mistake by appreciating him as the most expensive player in mainland Europe. It’s all very well worth it.
