Having won the European Championship, I think Donnarumma will be eager and ambitious to win the Champions League.
The young likewise should grow,do I expect more start in the Champions League for him.
Navas is experience quite obvious but I'd choose the later over him.
Donnarumma's performance in the Euro 2020 championship was indeed very good and he even won the best player award in the championship, but what I'm thinking now is whether Donnarumma's decision to join PSG is a good choice or not, because until now Donnarumma has not played at all and of course if conditions like that continue it is likely to damage his future career and is it possible just to earn a big salary at PSG, Donnarumma is willing to become a backup goalkeeper for Keylor Navas Huh

I bet that Messi won't play all 90 minutes and won't start the match as a player in the squad. PSG needs him for Champions League and there is no reason why they use him after the international days. They will give him time to rest.

Without Messi, with players they have, PSG will win the match and perhaps win it easily.

I don't think coach Pocchetinno will give Messi a chance to play for 90 minutes. But the coach should put Messi on the field in every match now. So that he can get a good idea about PSG's match strategy and play style. And his understanding with the players is even better. Messi is not needed in Ligue 1 matches. PSG is strong enough without Messi.
Pocchetino needs to give Messi, Donnarumma and Ramos once healed some time to play in the next game imo, 45 minutes should be enough for Messi and Ramos as a start, less than this their impact will be limited like the previous time with Messi and obviously that might affect them negatively since fans and everyone are expecting a lot from them. For Donnarumma, he should play full time whether vs Clermont or in CL, or else Pochettino should explain why the best goalkeeper is on the bench for this long time!

Not your keys, not your coins!
I too had these same feeling whether Ramos and Messi would fit in one team, and then I realised that these player’s are pro athletes and while they may have their differences off the pitch, but on the pitch they’ll play as one team. Also I’m hoping that Messi shows some magic soon because after the hype, I’m really waiting to see him perform well on the pitch.
Great question. I am curious too. Messi needs time to recover after long flight, jet lag and international matches. I think PSG will not use him in the debut squad. If Messi plays, he will start from the bench and join as a substitution.

Ramos is still struggling to recover from injury and get his fitness back. Maybe next one month, we might see them in the squad of PSG.

PSG must win this match anyway. With such players in the squad, even a draw will be a failure. And no reason can justify the PSG players in case of failure. The only question is whether Messi will score in this match.

PSG's next opponent is Clermont and the game is on September 11.

I look forward to seeing the performances of Messi Neymar and Ramos together. We all know that Ramos has been the enemy of Messi and Neymar for so long. Ramos has fouled Messi in a bad way many times. Now they will play in the same team at the same time, I am eagerly waiting to see their performance.

PSG has not been defeated in the league so far and of course Clermont will be a commensurate opponent for PSG, because Clermont is in a pretty good condition and team performance, and currently they are in 3rd place in the standings with 8 points from 4 matches and only 4 differences points from PSG which is the leader of the standings, although on paper PSG is more superior but of course Clermont still has the opportunity to be able to get points in Parc des Princes stadium.
The match will certainly be very interesting in my opinion, as a team with a promotion status, Clermont was able to show a fairly consistent and impressive performance at the start of the competition.

Where have you seen that Leo Messi and Neymar will play against Clermont Foot next saturday? Argentina is playing against Bolivia on friday 10th september at Buenos Aires and Brazil is meeting Peru the same day in Brazil. So there are very few chances to see Neymar and Messi being on the field for PSG-Clermont saturday 11th september in France.

Then, we will not see Mbappe-Messi-Neymar trio again in this match as it seems.  Grin  I didn't know that Argentina and Brazil had still World Cup qualifier matches right before the league matches. And Brazil - Argentina match was also postponed to another unknown date. This is still a very easy match for PSG even without Messi and Neymar both. I suppose Mbappe will carry the team again to a victory.

I dont think they will have a problem they both are proffessional players and that heat between them was only because el classico was always really competitive and high stakes games it wilk be a real test for psg against clerment they are really good and had positive results and good performance.
Clermont Foot's performance is admirable. They have won the first two matches 2-0. In the third match, they drew 3-3, and in the last fourth match, they drew 2-2 against Metz to share the points. The team is strong. PSG will have to form a strong squad to win against them.

Maybe they won't be able to perform against Clermont Foot. There is a match between Bridge and Argentina on the 10th, if they perform in the national team then maybe they will not be able to perform in the match of PSG.

I assume that PSG will focus on winning the Champions League title more than the Ligue 1 this season. Because they have a trio like Mbappe - Neymar - Messi now. As Mbappe will be leaving the team next summer most probably, maybe they won't find a this close chance to win the title later. But of course I don't mean that they will just let the Ligue 1 go.
PSG haven't won the Champions League title before, and their full attention is on winning it this season, which will probably be their first Champion League trophy. They made it to the semi-final last season, but was knocked out by Manchester City after losing their home and away match. This season will however be different because they now have a strong squad, they also lost the Ligue 1 title last season to Lille, but will fight for it this season.

We are getting close to the league games finally. I missed to watch Messi playing already.  Grin  This time, I really believe that we will see Messi in the starting eleven. He is not lacking match fitness anymore. We should see him with Mbappe and Neymar alongside him. This is a really deadly trio for all the teams now. PSG's next opponent is Clermont and the game is on September 11. I hope to see Messi making an assist or scoring goal. But even if he doesn't do any of them now, there is no problem. He will start to play like real Messi after adapting to the players and the strategy.

I still can't believe that there are some of you that believe that Navas should be the number one goalkeeper. That is not true at all, Donnaruma is clearly the better goalkeeper, why are you still defending Navas? I mean don't get me wrong I am not saying that Navas is a bad GK, he is definitely a good GK but that doesn't change the fact that Donnaruma is a better one. He should be playing every game he could, plus fatigue is not a big problem for goalkeepers which means that Donnaruma specially at his age could play every single game PSG has without getting tired about it as well, not like he is a winger which they have a lot of as well.

PSG has all kinds fo problems with this, on the wings+striker situation normally there are three players, they have messi, neymar, mbappe, icardi, di maria there as well, how could they decide that too? Their job is very difficult.
Navas is an excellent goalkeeper, he was a key player that let PSG go far in CL in the previous season with his saves so counting on him for some games will remain even when Donnarumma will take his place step by step starting with CL imo or might be given the opportunity vs Clermont also.
Actually deciding between a bunch of players shouldn't be a problem tho, they will rotate them, the player that is ready more than the other will participate and so on, this might confuse further their opponents.

Navas and Dannarumma are both great goalkeepers. Who is the best, it is difficult to say. Pocchetinno is most at risk with how to arrange the squad. He will rotate the players. Because there are lots of talented players. Pocchetinno experienced coach. If he can properly form PSG's squad, PSG may win the Champions League.

Having won the European Championship, I think Donnarumma will be eager and ambitious to win the Champions League.

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Navas is a bad goalkeeper, I even said that in my post, he is definitely a good GK. However we are talking about something much bigger here, something about Donnaruma being much much better, this isn't about Navas being bad, this is about Donnaruma being that much better, dude could be one of the best GK of our era right now, and you are putting him in the bench for a GK that arguably worse but also factually so much older?

I would put Donnaruma in, dude left Milan for nothing because he wasn't happy there, if you keep putting him on bench here you think you get to keep him? The more you keep him on the bench the higher risk of him leaving as soon as his contract is over. They should be putting him on GK at all games except cup games and league games that are right after a UCL game which would make sense to rest him.

This would still give Navas around 15 games a season easily, whereas Donnaruma would be getting 20+ games easily as well, so it is not about if they should play or not, both should play but which games makes the most difference.

Navas makes his name in Real Madrid and he had a chance to join Real Madrid after a successful World Cup with Costa Rica. Without that World Cup, he would have never been able to join Real Madrid. In World Cup 2014, he was the man of the match in the match against Greece. He shined in the penalty shoout and brought Costa Rica to quarter final. Keylor Navas career.

I remember another goalkeeper in that tournament who later signed with Arsenal, but he failed to keep up his success like Keylor Navas.

Donna will have to learn from Keylor and surpass him in trainings.

About Messi, the drama in Brazil vs Arghentina match is unbelievable. Anyway, it will save a bit energy for Messi. He will get better fitness for PSG.  Cool
