The PSG (Moneybags) Thread

[The jiffle king]

Given PSG have signed so many players this summer and the weight of expectation will be very high for them to win everything with a manager who prior to the last 12 months had never won anything, I thought we should have our own PSG thread

Will the manager be able to control the ego's of Neymar, Ramos, Mbappe and Messi?
Who will take penalties?
If they don't win every game will MoPo get sacked?
Will the front 3 ever do defending?

In simplest terms,just sit back and enjoy.If that front 3 get even close to how messi/neymar and suarez played at Barca we are in for a treat.The football those 3 played at barca was probably the best football I have seen ,they scored about 360 goals in 3 seasons between them.

The Parisien Galacticos.

A draw, let alone a loss against anyone would be a disappointment.

They should be brilliant to watch. Lots of 5:3's I reckon.

I don't envy Gini or Verrati, they're going to be busy in that midfield.

What channel is the French league on?

Their viewing figures might go up a bit.

I can see a UAE vs Qatar champions league final this season.

How do PSG get around the FFP rules?

BT Sport. Who, coincidentally just lost UK Bundesliga rights to Sky. I’d love Sky to get Serie A too! They might even need to launch another football channel!

Ramos is going to earn his keep

It could be like Kevin Keegan football (We'll score 1 more than you)

I think back to MoPo and his early Saints days where he played a pressing game..... Mbappe, Neymar and Messi doing that feels a long way from reality

[Paul4potts]

It really is a ridiculous squad now. On paper they should win absolutely everything for the next couple of years.

Who would have ever thought Ramos and Messi would end up on the same team

A part of me also hopes that MBappe leaves for Madrid at some point and Ronaldo joins Messi at PSG…

They might add Ronaldo to the squad as a bench warmer.... just so no-one else has him

Of course Ramos will try and be his best friend. I really hope Messi tells him to fk off after the way he fouled him non-stop in every Classico for the last fifteen years give or take.

How is their Defence though !!

Bet they dont win anything outside of France still...

Can’t help but hope it goes tits up. They’re just another Man City with a fancier Blackpool tower.

Their defence is pretty stacked too? Only real rivals they will have is City and Pep doesn’t have the best record in CL recently…

[Shappers24]

PSG often shown on BT sport. Will be tuning in on Saturday to see them against Strasbourg, just to see if the attack is as potent as suggested.

I wouldn't rule out Russia retaining it. (fingers crossed)

Simon Jordan described them on the radio as a Faberge Egg of a club, and it wasn't a compliment.

They're a circus of a club.

Whatever happens it's going to be fun to watch.

Same way city and Chelsea do. They aren't football clubs they are play things.
