*STOP NOWHERE*
PSG's target is to win the UCL and they will continue to make every effort to achieve that with the amount of money they have.
for now the PSG squad is very qualified to achieve this target, they have the MNM trio of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe who are of very good quality even they are the best strikers in the world today and also have several other star players in all positions.
but if this target is not achieved this season or next it is not impossible that there will be a major overhaul at the PSG club, they have a lot of money and they can do anything to improve their squad.
There has been a good improvement from PSG this season especially in terms of teamwork. In the Champions League they have proven that good player collaboration produces good results too. I see Galtier being able to make the difference for his team even though it's not perfect, but this season Neymar, Messi and Mbappe seem to get along in the match.
If PSG perform consistently as they are now, it will be difficult to beat them. PSG's goal is to win titles, that's something that has been stated time and time again every season. However, their journey to the final is not always easy.

PSG had a strong squad. Almost all the talented and star players in the squad. However, PSG's performance last season was very poor. The main weakness of the team was that the bonding between their players was very weak and their match strategy was not good. But Galtier has been able to strengthen the bond between the team's players. The understanding between the team players is now much better than before. At the same time, Galtier is working very well to resolve the conflicts between the team players with Mbappe. Mbappe's behavior is changing. He no longer behaves arrogantly and selfishly. PSG's performances have been more consistent in the last few matches.

PSG is very easy to beat their opponents, especially in Ligue 1 if Messi, Neymar and Mbappe are well connected. The same situation must be applied to Galtier in the Champions League, team cohesiveness and supported by the best performances can take PSG to go further in the Champions League.


man, you cannot compare Ligue 1 and Champions league, in any way

it is easy to dominate in Ligue 1, first because it is season long, so each mistake can be outdone later on, and quality is far lower than CL, and in Champions league one game can decide everything, they will pass group stage, but they lack quality and mental strength to reach final stages against tough competitors, like Real, City or Bayern
I'm not comparing Ligue 1 to the Champions League. At the point you quoted, I hope PSG can show their best performance in the Champions League as shown in Ligue 1. PSG have long wanted the UCL trophy, they can achieve it if they always appear consistent against tough teams like Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

While there is some conversation about Messi's future at PSG I'd also like to add some information about it.

It is claimed that PSG have already offered a one-year extension to Messi. They want to act quick and do their best to keep Messi in the team. Because since he adapted to PSG's system he has been one of the biggest contributors of the team with not only goals but also assists. PSG don't want to see the trio disbanding by the end of this season. They are already worried about Mbappe's future at the team. If Mbappe and Messi both leaves I assume Neymar also wouldn't like to stay anymore. This would change the destiny of the team completely for certain.  Grin
Not any agreement clause with Lionel Messi contract first time arrived at PSG with one year extended after his contract ended, seems still have potential for Lionel Messi leave PSG after his contract ended at June 2023, depending later with new agreement reach both site maybe before January window transfer opening, actually give one years contract extended for Lionel Messi is not worth offering because Messi has quite performance with PSG. Realistic need to give 2 years contract extended for Lionel Messi if want keep stay with PSG.


Mbappe still have contract until 2025 and I don't think any crazy team want to sign in him because need to pay most expensive transfer values and have to pay higher salary received than with PSG. I think keep secure with Mbappe without leaving PSG but I doubt with Lionel Messi want extended contract with PSG or return to Barcelona.

When it comes to the Champions League title chance of PSG I think that there is a big doubt there.

Because they struggled against Benfica quite a lot in the group and couldn't beat them in both matchups. This makes me question their future performance against much bigger teams. I know that they got an enormous win like 7-2 over Maccabi Haifa recently but this doesn't mean much to me. Because it was already a weak opponent so there is nothing to be surprised of. They just need to improve their effort more against big teams. They are already comfortable in the Ligue 1 so they should be more focused as of last 16 round in the Champions League.
PSG are very lucky to have one of the spectacular GOAT in their team. The parisians can go far this season, because they're cooperating together and a good  chemistry among the players. I can't stop praising Messi, he is a phenomenon and every player wishes to play along side with him. Barça fans chanting that they needs leo Messi back to the team after failing to qualifying for the round of 16 in the champions league. Leo Messi performance in UEFEA is stunning and outstanding. Their last game, they won 7-2 against Meccabi Haifa, all credits goes to Leo Messi which his presence made a positive impact on the game.

I personally don't have high hopes for this because even though they are quite good in terms of individual abilities, they still have many gaps in teamwork which makes this a little difficult for them.
PSG don't lack great players but they lack trust between each other which makes it difficult for them to talk much at Champions League level.

Winning the UCL is not only seen from the number of star players in a team like PSG, but the solidity and cooperation of the players themselves must also be present, and having to be able to carry out the directions of their coach will also be a big influence for this. You can see for yourself in the example of the team that won the UCL last season, they were all so solid and compact in every game they played in the UCL.

The competition is no longer an honor for the team from Paris. They only want one thing and that is to win the Champions League. It could be interesting for 2nd place. Incidentally, PSG has started to play football a lot better since there is a new coach. He has things in order and Psg seems to be better now than ever before.

Mauricio Pochettino's failure in the Champions League last season give an important lesson for the Paris Saint-Germain team to improve the main squad, including in the coach chair.
Finish in the round of 16 is Paris Saint-Germain's worst achievement since the last two seasons
This failure provide an opportunity for Christophe Galtier as a new coach, we will soon see Galtier's quality in controlling PSG, especially in the Champions League
Yes, their move to change coaches is expected to bring higher achievements. Actually we don't need to talk about their domestic league because on paper and anyone who sees them will have the belief that they are champions in Ligue 1. What they need to prove is in the Champions League because they have never felt lifting that prestigious trophy. But honestly I still have my doubts over them in this Champions League.

As we know that Paris Saint Germain is very ambitious to be able to have star players in their squad. And now they will definitely do everything possible to keep the star players who are now in the squad as part of them. They will not care how much money they will spend to keep the players from leaving. But of course it will be the decision of their players to stay or choose to leave and find a new club.
Lionel Messi has been tipped to return to the club he came from, and chances are he will. We'll wait and see.
After getting a big won a day ago, the owner thinking hard to hold the squad, especially the trio MNM (Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe) on PSG maybe for the next 2-3 years. Maybe this is the strategy for business also while the club created the achievement, and this is to make the target change to how to get a double winner for this session. And Messi, Many speculations to him being back, but I thing it's not for this year, may be possible for the next session or if he were able to get in what the owner's target want.


On several occasions, Messi has stated. he has no intention of extending his service with PSG once his contract expires in 2022/2023. so Barcelona does not need to spend a budget as a dowry to bring him from PSG.
after all, Messi doesn't really care about the salary offered by the PSG president even though it is fantastic. he, already has everything, what he needs is two trophies at once as a service with PSG.

As for Mbappe, as we know, almost every week there are rumors linking Mbappe's move from PSG and always make headlines in the sports media. however, it looks like he will stay with PSG especially if his salary is increased.
one Neymar, since last summer's transfer window. he, always linked in the list of names in the transfer market, his whereabouts at PSG for next season is still gray.

The Ligue 1 trophy is not too special anymore for PSG because they can win the domestic league almost every year, it is natural for PSG to target winning the UCL this season because they have never won the UCL trophy before. No one doubts the squad that PSG currently has, the lineup of star players is expected to be able to solve the mystery that has been happening to PSG due to always having difficulty winning the UCL. PSG's journey is still very smooth in Ligue 1 and UCL, Galtier must not make mistakes in the Champions League if he wants to be in the Final. Defeat in Ligue 1 can still be redeemed in another match, while in the UCL there can be no words of defeat if PSG want to get a trophy.

if the PSG President will keep the trio they have in the main squad. it means that the ambitions and targets given have not been achieved. they are still trusted to bring PSG to glory in Europe.
Messi is a great player, but given his age, I don't think that would be a goal for the business. Neymar and Mbappe may still be valuable assets for PSG. Mbappe is still very young and has a good game.

@blue Snow I feel that Messi won’t leave PSG, because Barcelona won’t be able to afford him and PSG will offer him more wages ro stay hence he’ll continue to stay at least for a year and then return to Barcelona just before he retires. Furthermore Mbappe is being over paid and many in PSG board room too are feeling that, hence if a offer comes in for him then they’ll probably consider letting him go and then use that money to reinvest in the squad.

This has become a habit for them so there needs to be another target, but in this case we know that they still can't do it.
There are several hindering factors in this case, especially since they are too comfortable being and playing in Ligue 1 so it is certain that it will be a bit difficult because they have to face different opponents whose quality is of course very different.

Not enough competitive compare between Ligue 1 and Champion League because PSG almost every season dominance with Ligue 1 tittle but difficult to get Champion League tittle except latest achievement lead until final stage at season 2020.

Last two season Champion League most difficult faced by PSG after beating by Real Madrid at 16 round last edition time, seems with impressive performance on group stage and PSG should finish at 1st standing on group stage have chance to get easy team on 16 round. I think still with strength mentality team will lead to final stage like Real Madrid, Liverpool and Bayern Munich seems are favorite team have chance lead until final stage. I don't think with PSG favorite can lead until final stage at Champion League in this season.
I think there is a bit of difference based on having just 2 games to survive versus having a whole season. If you put all 32 teams in the group stages of UCL, and make them play with each other twice, which would be 64 games, then you will see that PSG may end up at the top.

Because, they could have a few loss but the overall would be good. But when you tell them to either win or go home, they may not be that great. Look at last year, they almost won and then in span if 2 minutes they lost. This is why it is very hard in a tournament structure and not so hard in a league structure. So the difference is not just ligue 1 vs ucl, it’s also cup vs league situation as well.

In this case I agree. In any case, things like this cannot be compared because it is very far in comparison when looking at Ligue 1 and the Champions League.
PSG will clearly dominate in Ligue 1 especially seeing the condition of the players they have now actually at the top of Ligue 1 is one of the easy things for them to do because looking at the conditions of other clubs it is quite clear what the difference is so it is difficult for other clubs to be able to do that. compete. But for the Champions League it's definitely not that simple because this is the place where kings compete.
