At this rate, the PSG will strain the social security budget. It will take a good dose of painkillers, antidepressants and anxiolytics to continue to follow this sick team, incapable of regularity, consistency and ideas in the same month, from one meeting to another day after day, in the same match, in the same minute.
She lost against Lorient (1-3) for the third time in four outings at the Parc des Princes, in full open house operation. As if we had to welcome everyone when the club of the capital threatens (or pretends) to leave it.
But these heritage days dedicated to the adversaries (Rennes, Lyon, Lorient) only participate in a general collapse of the Parisian building, started from everywhere. There is his right-back, Achraf Hakimi, unable to control himself in fifteen minutes, the time of two warnings and a return to the shower. There is his defense, recomposed with Marquinhos in the right back, porous like a lump of butter left in the sun.
PSG has become nothing or not much, it’s ugly and soft, it dangles, it lets itself go, it’s a coward in a dressing gown at 5 p.m. on a Sunday who seems to get up to go go back to sleep And we are asked to attend this joke. There is also his attack, devoid of bludgeoning in a second period spent in front of the Breton goal.
Mbappé remains the only one focused and motivated
A kind of occupation of the field and positions but without anything concrete except for a header from Danilo taken out… from the header by Yvon Mvogo. The Merlus goalkeeper got screwed. Lorient had been leading for about ten minutes when the Swiss international lost track of the game and his concentration. Believing that the referee had called a foul, he threw the ball to clear when the man in black had said to play. If the ball is in play, it must be played and Kylian Mbappé seized it to score his 23rd goal of the season.
In the spring grayness of a PSG which looks like a puppet without a manipulator, disarticulated and therefore without animation, the attacker remains the only one focused and motivated. In a weekend where neither Alexandre Lacazette nor Jonathan David, however victorious with Lyon and Lille, improved their statistics, the 2018 world champion added a unit to his counter, taking two lengths ahead of the front – center of the Mastiffs. It’s always taken, like a consolation prize.
For the rest, Lorient returned to win at the Parc des Princes as at the very beginning of Qatar’s arrival in Paris. At the time, PSG was just a financial project without the footballing skills to go with it. Some will say that twelve years later, nothing has changed. We thought in 2011 that Paris would grow, spend the money intelligently to pile up the titles. We were naive even if the crown of champion of France is still accessible despite this new hitch that looks like a fault, taste at least.
