PSG: Chaos at Paris Saint-Germain – Is the Messi club completely breaking up now?  – Soccer

This bankruptcy shakes PSG to its foundations!

After the 1: 3 in the round of 16 second leg (first leg 1: 0), the big dream of winning the Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain has burst. again. A bankruptcy that will change a lot at the Sheikh Club.

Trainer

It was never really a love affair between PSG and Mauricio Pochettino (50). According to the French, the end of the premier class also seals the end of the coach by the end of the season at the latest – even though he only started in January 2021.

What’s next after that? In Paris, Zinedine Zidane (49) has long been traded as a possible successor, Pochettino is considered a top candidate for the successor to interim coach Ralf Rangnick (63) at Manchester United.

strategy

The dream of winning the premier class – as soon as possible – has always prevented PSG from adopting a long-term strategy. The club signed the biggest stars for hundreds of millions, without paying attention to whether these players fit into the team structure. The result: a star ensemble with many monster egos – but no team.

Man United legend and TV expert Rio Ferdinand (43): “It’s a dysfunctional team. They have Mbappé, Neymar, Messi on offense. Each of these players would probably be given an extra role for the other players to do the work for. But having three of these sorts makes it nearly impossible to get the job done at a top level. That may work in the French league. But having to carry three players at this level who may not be able to deliver the teamwork to the required intensity makes it very difficult to win a competition like the Champions League.”

Bosses/Team

According to the French media, the debacle also costs sports director Leonardo (52) his job. His preseason purchases were expensive, but almost all of them flopped.

Lionel Messi (34) just doesn’t arrive at PSG. The again poor performance in Madrid proves that again. It is unclear whether he will fulfill his contract until 2023.

Sergio Ramos (35) has hardly played at all this season due to various injuries. It is also unclear whether he will stay until the end of his contract (2023).

Georginio Wijnaldum (31 / came from Liverpool) hardly plays a role in Pochettino.

Gianluigi Donnarumma (23/came from Milan) alternates in the box with Keylor Navas (35), failed against Real.

Mbappe

And then there is Kylian Mbappé (23).

The superstar is one of the very few who consistently delivers world-class performances. Mbappé is about to move to Real and has already turned down a number of offers to extend his contract. The debacle against Real probably only strengthened his decision.
