    I think Messi arriving to the club really upset the already tense diva-status of Neymar and Mbappé, and also compromised the system and tactics. Imagine having to play the MNM every match they're available, your tactics basically have to revolve around having these 3 players on the pitch. It's enough for Ligue1, but then playing in the UCL with a squad where 3 players don't press nor defend is overkill, there is no other club that does it.
    Against Bayern they looked very hindered tactically and physically. Also having these 3 players and their enormous wages compromises the ability to sign better players in other positions, so when looking at PSG's bench and at Bayern's bench, it was clear one was a team built more or less carefully and with a plan for the team and the individuals, while PSG looked just like a rich guy's pet project.

    Appreciate the video was already quite long but in mind definitely more you could've spoken about so much here 😅 I mean the fact that they don't comfortably win ligue 1 every year with 100 points baffles me considering the wage difference between them and the rest of the league.
    PSG just can't seem to handle the better opposition in the ucl and probably points to the fact that they basically play on autopilot for the majority of the season.

    Glad you touched on a fact that a lot of people often leave out. The main function of PSG at the moment is to sanitise the image of a regime guilty of numerous human rights violations. That's why they're happy to throw such an obscene amount of money after Mbappe to the detriment of the rest of the squad; the publicity they gain from their main stars far outweighs the benefits of actually winning the Champions League

    The problem with PSG is they are to big to fit in the ligue1. Yes other teams in Ligue1 still cause them troubles here and there, but there are no Barcelona to Real Madrid, it was like EPL with only Man City and there are no Arsenal, Man Utd, Liver, Chelsea, just mid table dark horses and relegation teams. There are no higher standard to strive, once PGS got the oil money, they automatically became the best team in the league. In the end they have to rely on a few C1 matches they could play to test out their meter.
    Yes Bayern to the rest of Bundesliga is kinda the similar problem if you only look on their recent dominant years, but there is a very different mentallity in Germany. Bayern choose to be this way and they desparately want to be the only best team in the league despite valiant and very close attempt by kind like Leipzig and Dortmund. And these 2, (or some others in the past) despite still bottlejob, they still have very big chances to win the title. That's why we see Bayern still have to try so hard to protect their position. While looking at ligue1, i see no other team could ever apply any constant pressure on PSG years after years, they always jazzing to the title almost every year.
    And of course we have to mention that Bayern spending are no near the level of PSG, and they still archieve the same domestic dominant

    PSG fan of 20+ years and a contributor of a large English-speaking PSG podcast here,, I could write an essay on our situation but this guy did a great job. Every football RUclipsr has a take on our club but this guy gave the best unbiased report from a neutral I've seen in a while.
    In short, I believe we suffer from the club being run by QSI, where their main goal is to use the club as a sportwashing and marketing tool. Our spending was a bit high comparatively from 2011-13 and actually not bad at all from 2014-20 even with the two biggest transfers ever (and yes I'm aware the artificial revenue inflation helped us), but the wage bill increasing 44% from 2020 to 2022 was a huge problem that I believe put us in the bad spot we are now. It's crazy that while we're located in maybe the biggest talent hotspot in the world (the city of Paris), we have completely ignored that and sold young players to sign the next Icardi or Idrissa Gueye for millions.
    In a perfect world QSI learns their mistakes and either becomes a more passive owner or sells the club but we all know that's unrealistic. I believe this season was a step in the right direction (wage bill lowered greatly, deadwood loaned/sold), but we still need to cut costs by a lot next year, and I hope at least one of MNM is let go/sold to shift towards financial stability

Neymar also needs to go, most expensive signing in history, and he doesnt even care about the club. Hes been good in 1 of 6 seasons hes been here, its time to go! Also don't think this is galtiers fault, we were brilliant before the world cup. It feels like none in the team except for Kylian has any motivation anymore.

    The biggest difference between Galacticos and PSG is the era in which they existed. This is an era of collective functionality, high press, building from the back as a team. It's not an era where a super team can be created by stacking up talent, as they did in the Galacticos time. And even then, it worked a lot less than expected. Galacticos era shouldn't be romantized. They failed more often than not. Stil, tactics have advanced too much to build a team on individual talent. Talent needs to click perfectly. Every team needs balance, tactical players.

    This is very good and interesting. I like your humour too. One thing you didn't seem to consider is that the first half of the season was played before the WC,when they were fresh and full of vim and vinegar. The second half is after the WC where they shot their wad. WC is horrendously intense and it's all concentrated in one month. Even I as a fan haven't got the energy to get excited about the games post-WC. I've shot my wad too. It's interesting that the players who shone at WC, Neymar (injured), Messi, Mbappe, Hakimi haven't been playing that well. They're tired. They're not robots. They should have had a longer rest period. Nowadays they seem to be recovering and their playing shows it. The main pb with PSG is that it's not a team. So they can't really compete with a well regulated team like Real or Bayern. I have to say PSG has the most impatient, bratty, ignorant, stupid, and downright nasty fans. They've managed to make themselves hated all over the world by booing Messi. Made their team the most hated and it's even seeped over to their country, France.

    Ego has always been the demise of PSG and its players. Neymar leaving Barca because he didn't want to be Messi's shadow.

And having a dressing room that thinks too high of itself. Imagine if Messi had taken mbappes attitude with Luis Enriques Barca when he restricted Messi's movements to allocate Neymar and Suarez.

    PSG is another example that dream teams don't work. Here in the States, when a sports team tries to sign as many high profile players as possible to win a championship, we deem them dream teams, and every single one of them failed to win a title. Why? Because having the best players doesn't equal having the best team. The best teams have good chemistry, strong cohesion, excellent coaches, good leaders, understanding owners. PSG doesn't have any of that. Something else winning teams have is an understanding that nobody is bigger than the club. PSG, seems like every star is bigger than the club.
    PSG should stop chasing stars and build the same way a lot of top clubs do. Get a good manager/coach, use your nation's deep wealth of talent to farm young talent, sign a couple stars.
    France has too much talent for the biggest French club to struggle and not even really have that many starting French players. Throughout the success of Barcelona the last couple decades, most of their players also were Spanish National team players.

    Successful clubs sign players because they fit into the team's philosophy and style of play. PSG signs players as if they are collecting rare collectables, then design their philosophy and style around these players. It will never work because it just highlights that the club doesn't even have a basic philosophy or a stable foundation, but their philosophy now is to just throw money at a broken system and hope that it will bring them success.
    That's what separates Manchester City from PSG. City learned this quickly and they haven't really been signing any big names especially since Pep's arrival with very few exceptions in Haaland and Grealish (Grealish wasn't even a huge name tbh, he only made headlines because of the huge price tag rather than for his ability as a footballer at the time). Most players on the City squad over the past years became famous only after arriving at City. Gundogan, Bernado, Dias, Rodri, and EVEN KDB all weren't huge players until they joined City and very few English fans even knew who they were before.
    PSG needs to get rid of all their Hollywood stars and build from the ground up with a solid and stable philosophy. Otherwise they will never win anything meaningful.
    But I hope that will never happen because I simply love watching PSG crash and burn year after year. It never gets old.

    I’m a PSG, and I admit, we’ve been an absolute circus of a club for a while now, and there are many problems that we need to fix to be able to get anywhere in the next 5 years.
    1. We truly are an oil club at the moment, and we are just signing players for the sake of signing them. We aren’t actually looking at players that we already have, trying to get a functioning team, and getting players to work with each other. All of the players that we have signed are insane as INDIVIDUALS, not as a team.
    2. At this point, everything has been exhausted into attack, or literally singularly Mbappè. We have barely tried to develop our midfield, and are not giving any attention out for the actual potentially amazing players like Hakimi and Hugo who could become exceptional.
    3. For some reason, we still think that everybody is in their prime? All the big names that we have signed are exceptional, don’t get me wrong, but bodies age, and people just slowly start to decline, you aren’t going to be seeing Messi re-creating iconic moments like “Ankara”, and Neymar isn’t going to be pulling some of the most breathtaking goals to ever be scored.
    4. Some players we could sign to be boost the squad could be:
    - Nkunku
    -Osimhen
    -Young stars like Gavi who can grow into and adapt to a new midfield
    -Tomori
    -Saliba
    -Camavinga
    -Actually use Xavi Simons and not throw the poor dude out the window
    Just some good players I think could make an actual good and functional squad

You win the league one season, finish 10th the next, then win it again the following season. One season, you're 9th whilst being managed by your most legendary player with him expecting to be sacked. A few months after sacking him, you're champions of Europe. One season later, you're world champions only for your owner to have to sell you a few weeks later cause of a freaking war.
