This has always been my concern for PSG they don't seem to look like such a team thst is willing to be patient enough to want to build a team for the scratch and probably get to the point they become so formidable they will be able to be very productive even outside the Ligue 1 but they rather choose to keep focusing on starts with the mind that that's the way to helping them been able to achieve the kind of results they want to get.
If they are willing to build a team using young stars and talents such as the likes of coman and nkunku who were all gotten from their academy, they will be able to get a team thst will give them the kind of results they Desire even if it's going to take sometimes, but in the end it will be worth the wait and it will be even cost effective for them, just like Leverkusen now who's doing so well already and they are getting these results with their own players they did nurtured and not buying stars alone, it's even much better a team is able to build a star and get him to give the team the kind of performance they desire to get and later sell him off at a huge price which will now be another source of income to the team.
The Ligue 1 has always been the only place where PSGs dominance has been felt the most, they can possibly become a better team outside this small league where it seems their prowess is the most if only they are willing to probably risk a whole season to fixing the team and getting the team to produce the desired results and subsequent they would have a reliable team they can actually depend on the getting the kind of results they wanted all along.
The shortcuts made by PSG certainly make them a strong team in a very short time, and certainly it is not difficult for them to continue to be able to get many star players with the power of money they currently have, but of course PSG must be prepared for risks that are also detrimental to their finances if if the star players they buy now are not able to meet the expectations charged in achieving the championship target, For now, what PSG is doing I don't think is entirely wrong, because will be difficult for a team to develop only by relying on the talents of academy players, yes maybe at least PSG must also be brave to orbit their young players into the current main squad in order to at least reduce their expenses.
Leverkusen in the Bundesliga are currently able to surprise many people with their achievements, but I think using Leverkusen as an example to compare PSG is certainly not realistic guys, because we all know how long it took Leverkusen to make history like now, and I think PSG will not want to wait that long to be able to make their team strong not only in Ligue 1 but of course the big teams of the Europa League so far become their benchmark for development.
I understand PSG's mentality. The aim is big names, huge wins. However, relying on a few superstars is risky. Huge risk. Spends a fortune, and no trophies? Disaster. Absolute disaster. Mbappe, a terrific player, shows that Champions League pressure can break anyone.
Believe me, this play is smarter: Create your own talent. Slow, but builds a stronger foundation. You avoid outrageous transfer fees and inflated salaries and get players who compete for the shirt, not just the salary. Mixing one or two major stars with local talent? The mixture is potent. PSG needs competitiveness and sustainability to win. Much smarter than their current plan.
PSG's mistake was always with their coach, it is not permissible that when they had 3 great stars and they did not win the UCL, Ligue 1 yes, that was obvious, but they had to demonstrate the level was in the UCL, so the mistake of the Sheikh as such was to allow himself to be talked over, prioemsesas and everything on the part of the coach, a sheikh who had everything and did not know what he had was lacking much more decision, because he did not know how to take advantage of the leadership of a team, I would have done everything possible to I tried to get Zidane, or one of the best at that time , but he wasn't able to do it, so that's like investing in something that you don't follow up on again, the sheikh really failed, now with Mbappé it only meant a lot, but It's not enough, sometimes the sheikh was very complacent with that player, and a player cannot be trusted by the club, those mistakes were the ones that never made PSG win, now they have a chance in the UCL that we are experiencing, let's see if things change.
The mistake in PSG is about not having a balanced team, you haven't learned this yet. Now according to some news, it seems there is another ard fact in PSG about their superstar players Mbappe. We know Mbappe is a great player and he is effective in any team he plays for them, even that's true when we say if Mbappe leaves PSG they will have problems because so far he has been the key player for PSG.
But this is not a good reason to say this player should get this huge amount of money in PSG and we should accept he is just a human and should take a salary like the other players, After the contract they signed in 2022, Mbappe's current income n PSG 6 million euros per month, Which means 72 million euros per month and 36 million euros after the tax he should pay. While the next player on the list is Harry Kane who gets just 2.1 million euros which is much lower than Mbappe.
Maybe this can make some other players in PSG think they are not valuable to the team.
