The team does not need many star players in the squad for a good performance. We have seen proof of this several times. The Chelsea team won the Champions League title a few years ago. They did not have many star players in their squad. Leverkusen are still unbeaten in the Bundesliga and Europa League this season. This team also has no star players in its squad.

PSG had many star players in their squad, but their coach was not good. There was no friendly relationship between the players in the squad. PSG team cannot do well in Champions League due to lack of friendly relationship between players and lack of understanding between players. But now PSG has an experienced coach like Luis Enrique. Now, if PSG's squad was as strong in attack as before, PSG would have been able to dominate the Champions League.

Of course you need star players and I have no idea what your definition of a star player is. If the only guys who can be called stars are Messi, Ronaldo and Mbappe then you are right because they can't be everywhere and two of them play abroad. But of course do these teams need stars to win the Champions League. Some of them might not be as well known as others, but all of them are stars in some capacity.

You are applying some weird logic to be honest. Since PSG never won the Champions League although they had Mbappe, no team that has Mbappe will ever win the Champions League. That is how you construct your arguments. Think about it.

I mean a star player who can consistently perform consistently, and has the ability to score at key moments and bring the team to victory. There are very few such players. But PSG was very lucky to have three of the best players in the world in Messi, Neymar and Mbappe in their squad. But they cannot use these three players properly. This is why the PSG team does not get a chance to touch the Champions League title.

You probably didn't read my comment properly or you didn't understand that. I don't blame Mbappe at all for PSG not winning the Champions League despite having Mbappe. The bonding between PSG's players was not good and that's why they couldn't dominate the Champions League, that's what I mean. If the understanding between the players is not good, even if you bring all the best players in the world in the same squad, the expected results will not be obtained from them. This is what I believe.

In the first theory, Mbappe is a great player losing this player can damage the team in PSG as you said and this would be so hard for this team to find a replacement for Mbappe in PSG there is no team they want to lose a player in the level of Mbappe easily and I think PSG can't find alternative players in this team among younger players if they lose Mbappe.
But on the other hand, we can't forget what happened in Tottenham when they let Harry Kane leave the team, this team was not damaged but they even got stronger than before.

I think so too, especially now that PSG is exaggerating Mbappe's presence so much that other players are covered up even though basically a team's performance depends on the performance of all players in all lines, not just one player.
As an individual, Mbappe is quite great and I think for now he is one of the best players in the world, but for PSG I believe they would be better off losing Mbappe so they can build this team with a strong foundation and also all lines with the same quality of players so that it can lift team performance as happened to the Tottenham team.

You are right, individually Mbappe is a great player, but in football what is needed is team play and not just focusing on one player. Indeed, the presence of an above-average player would be an advantage for a club, but it should not lose sight of what it should be, which is team play. When they still have 3 star players they still can't do anything at the European level, it proves the presence of star players does not guarantee success for a club.
They can still be a giant club without star players, with a note that they must have evenly distributed players on each line who can work together with good chemistry. I personally if faced with 2 choices between having their squad with good team play and a squad that has several star players, I would prefer to have an evenly distributed squad that can play good cooperation.

I like your choice, playing as a team makes it easier to achieve targets, and minimizes the gap between players in the main squad. We know that the presence of star players with above average quality is really needed by the team, to make a difference in results. However, quite a few teams fail to manage these profits, resulting in greater risks, usually star players always get preferential treatment which is the forerunner to divisions between fellow players.

In terms of business, the presence of star players is certainly very beneficial in many ways, including increasing the fan base which will have an impact on increasing financial profits. Mbappe is one of the best star players at the moment, but now the spotlight on Mbappe has shifted a little, I mean when we mention Mbappe we immediately think about his future, it's no longer about the game and the way he helps the team with his ability to score goals.

There's every possiblity that if Kylian Mbappe leaves Paris Saint Germaine, the club will start doing better than they are currently doing without him but we must not feign ignorance to the fact that there are slim chances of Paris Saint Germaine getting better without Kylian Mbappe and that's because of the player's contribution to the team in the last seven years at the club.

No player have scored more goals for Paris Saint Germaine in the last seven years than Kylian Mbappe and no player's goals have provided more league points for the French champions in that same time duration than the France national team captain. These and many more are the reasons why Paris Saint Germaine will do anything possible to keep Kylian Mbappe at the club but unfortunately for the club, it seems like the player's mind is somewhere else and that is Real Madrid. His potential move to Real Madrid isn't guaranteed but judging by the reports, he's very likely to join Real Madrid after the end of the current season

Watching the game yesterday i don't think it's a performance with what we have seen in the league when PSG plays against other teams, the game was a final match and Toulouse played like a team that came prepared despite losing to the old ladies but they had a good performance and PSG worked so hard before getting rhe lead and secuing the victory at last. For PSG, they may not look very strong but their ability to keep topping the league and winning trophies even when they are not playing very well makes them bigger and better than other teams they are league leaders and they have a trophy at hand already.

Topping table and not staying have always been the goal for PSG, they're in good position to continue winning matches without complains but this present generation, everyone wants to ask what happen to then because they have failed to generate results that would become threatening to other opponents. As long as it's Ligue One, Paris Saint Germain will win matches, no argument about that, am I correct? Les Parisiens have to build hp around good players that would be able to filled in the space open and void by these clubs.

Although PSG is in a bad trend but still, in Ligue 1 that PSG it remains the best team and also a strong candidate team to get the trophy . So ya,when it comes to Ligue 1 and other domestic leagues then clearly, PSG remains the leading team compared to other teams in France . So yes,it is not surprising that in the match here in the French Super Cup final that PSG also only made a goal in the first half, but with that goal, atleast make PSG no longer needed to work harder in the second half.

Because ya, afterall, when PSG plays defense then ofcourse it will certainly be difficult for a team like Toulouse to be able to score in that match . So ya,it is not a surprising result anymore about PSG win the trophy thismoment because the victory is certainly a result that can be predicted easily.

I don't think Haaland would look favorably on such a transfer. Playing in the best teams in the world and retiring as a new legend is a good option, why would he play in a team like PSG?
The only reason PSG is successful is because they have a lot of money. Yes, they are very successful in their own leagues, but we see their situation in European matches. They certainly won't be the best team in the world

Why on earth would Haaland play in PSG?
There is not any good reason to say Haaland is interested to he is even thinking about playing another team like PSG.
In Manchester City, he got a good chance to win the Champions League and achieve more titles while in PSG there is less chance for this player Haaland.
I think Haaland is not going to leave Manchester City and even if he leaves this team he will not play for PSG.

I dare say Haaland will not move to PSG, he has a bright future with Manchester City. Moving to PSG was a bad decision in his career, I am not underestimating PSG, but the quality of Ligue 1 is lower than the Premier League. Haaland is at the peak of his career with Manchester City, staying there will open up the opportunity to win the Ballon D'or. I admit that PSG is a big club with abundant financial support, but because Ligue 1 is less competitive, PSG always has difficulty competing with big clubs from other leagues.

Losing Mbappe would cost PSG really a lot by the way. He is like their everything at the moment. In his absence I don't know how consistent and powerful PSG can be. They have made a good transfers for the future maybe but these new players will need to take their time to adapt and improve their skills to create a solid team.

In case of Mbappe's leaving maybe PSG would look for a solid replacement for him. But for now I don't know who they would go for. Maybe Haaland? Because his release clause is expected to be active by this year so we never know what PSG will do after that.

There is no way Haaland would want to prefer a move to PSG,he would rather stay at Mancity than move else where.Mbape is very eager to make a move from PSG to either Madrid or any north London club,I heard he was looking at moving to either Chelsea or Arsenal,but I think he would still stay at PSG because he is currently playing in the champions league with his team,and he wants to win the trophy with his club.
Haaland is a big player and his contribution to the Manchester City squad is one that they can't do without, therefore, contemplating on a move to PSG is not even in his plans.

It is an impossible move for Haaland because at his current peak performance of course he wants to join a team that is greater and has a long history. What would happen if he joined PSG, wouldn't that reduce his integrity as the best striker in the world and with Manchester City we know his greatness is extraordinary. It doesn't make sense if he goes to PSG and if there are no offers from other big clubs, I think it's better for him to stay at Manchester City because he will still win various titles including individual awards.

First of all, PSG was not in the race to sign Erling Haaland from Borrusia Dortmund, Manchester City did and he accepted the bid, he's currently one of the top goal scorers in the English Premier League, his name caved in the EPL scorer leaderboard history. Paris Saint-Germain have no potentials to get a hold of the Norway international, he's a top striker and his fans wouldn't want him to be in Parc des Princes stadium wasting his resourceful contributions, instead he should be in a more competitive top team that have important targets to meet. Erling Haaland made the right decision when he decided a move to Manchester City, he won a treble in his first season in Etihad Stadium.

Haaland to PSG? wow, that would certainly be very surprising, but is it possible? It looks like he will be a player targeted by many big clubs so competition in the transfer market will be very tight, and in my opinion, only club that a chance for Haaland to get many titles will be his choice.

Mbappe is the heart and soul of PSG including the Les Bleus, the pride of France. And for that reason, Luis Enrique and the Qatari owners are keeping their hopes alive.

It appears impossible to bring Haaland to PSG but doable. Mbappe rejecting PSG once more, the club will also become more aggressive in its pursuit of a replacement. PSG is a luxurious club, perhaps number one in Europe. PSG will match any of the best clubs on the planet. In the event that the most ideal decision of Haaland is to come out on top for championships of EPL, the best league in Europe and the Champions League, staying in Manchester City is the ideal fit to him.

Nothing is impossible and money can change everything.
We can take examples from other leagues such as Harry Kane who at that time was very proud of Tottenham and was finally acquired by Bayern Munich at a very high price and this could happen to PSG because I don't doubt PSG's finances which might be able to make an offer to Haaland worth 100 million dollars will definitely make the player think deeper and possibly accept the offer from PSG.
Regarding Mbappe's departure, I am ready to see him go because he has provided many good achievements for PSG and it is time for Mbappe to look for another challenge with a bigger club to get the title he wants.
But we have to be calm, it looks like Mbappe will leave when his contract expires, so it will still be a while before we see Mbappe's appearance for the last time.

Congratulations to PSG, who quickly won the cup in the new year. Mbappe continues to carry the team, I wonder what PSG's situation would be this season if it wasn't for this player.

If Mbappe convinces him to stay in the team and extends his contract and build a team around him, especially quality midfielders are needed. If all the conditions are met, this team may have a chance in the Champions League in Europe. Mbappe's goal was great again, he carries goals and scores aesthetic goals in every match.

Congratulations to them anyways but the most important aspect of everything is to make sure Psg wins the the Champions League Competition, cups like this are not too much, they've to show quality again in the next rounds ahead.
Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe has rejected some some of his bonus given to him by PSG. It's a clear massage now that he respects them alone and has refused nto make a further move until the end of the season.

Real Madrid already has set him on them rader and it seems like they're now chasing because they don't want to thrive. They will still continue to win the league.

It's still far from winning UCL. As you can see that if this trophy meant nothing compared to the UCL. I would rather than try to call that if this trophy is nothing caused by UCL is a competition betwen best of the best.
Unlike french cup which is only fulling by the french clubs, UCL is the hardest trophy to be acquired. Im thinking about the possible thing for PSG to go to the semi final.

It's not possible anymore for PSG to get UCL this season caused by some clubs were also become even stronger like madrid and bayern. The chance is pretty small for PSG to get it,
It will good enough if PSG will be able to manage enter into the semi final but im not really sure if PSG can do that consider the current squad of PSG is not depth enough compared with another strong club in the UCL.
Bayern and real madrid are still the strongest club at this moment. They have the main requirements to win the competition like the strongest squad in the competition.

This situation is the same like when manchester city was winning UCL last season. City has the strongest squad in UCL.

Congratulations to PSG, who quickly won the cup in the new year. Mbappe continues to carry the team, I wonder what PSG's situation would be this season if it wasn't for this player.

If Mbappe convinces him to stay in the team and extends his contract and build a team around him, especially quality midfielders are needed. If all the conditions are met, this team may have a chance in the Champions League in Europe. Mbappe's goal was great again, he carries goals and scores aesthetic goals in every match.

Congratulations to them anyways but the most important aspect of everything is to make sure Psg wins the the Champions League Competition, cups like this are not too much, they've to show quality again in the next rounds ahead.
Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe has rejected some some of his bonus given to him by PSG. It's a clear massage now that he respects them alone and has refused nto make a further move until the end of the season.

Real Madrid already has set him on them rader and it seems like they're now chasing because they don't want to thrive. They will still continue to win the league.

Although Paris Saint Germaine started badly in the UCL, they managed to continue well and get out of the group. I think they made a good draw for the next round. Entering the new year with a trophy will motivate them. I'm sure after winning the cup they will want to do the same in UCL. I don't see any team in the French league that can stop them.

TBH, it is very difficult to see Mbappe leaving PSG, but only in this way can the PSG team become more independent without relying on just 1 player. I mean PSG has always depended on Mbappe for a long time, whereas a team can be said to be very strong if it has solid players without relying on just one player and I also really understand that PSG actually wants to win the title in the UCL but is not strong enough to only rely on one player even though he is a striker does not mean he is the only one who has to score and other players also have to play an important role in scoring.

we can see, for example, Man City in the UCL, even mainstay Haaland didn't score in the final round and Real Madrid didn't just rely on Benzema at that time.
well, this is the reason I say that the time has come for PSG to be independent and learn to become a more solid team and be able to win titles in any competition even without Mbappe. I'm sure PSG can be even better.

Mbappe leaving PSG is one news that’ll scare them a whole lot but I think his departure is what the team needs generally now though so as to be able to play and harness on their various individual strengths. The whole team is being shouldered by just Mbappe and when he’s not up to do the biddings, they tend to suffer in the match. I think they need to let him go if he insists and build a better a strong team that would succeed even without his presence.

Champions don’t build the team around a single players rather they try to make sure the player stands out while everyone is shining and that’s what most teams like Real Madrid and Man City does. PSG would love to win the UCL but leas competition in the league might not be making them see the need to improve on individual strengths rather than relying on an individual.

Losing Mbappe would cost PSG really a lot by the way. He is like their everything at the moment. In his absence I don't know how consistent and powerful PSG can be. They have made a good transfers for the future maybe but these new players will need to take their time to adapt and improve their skills to create a solid team.

In case of Mbappe's leaving maybe PSG would look for a solid replacement for him. But for now I don't know who they would go for. Maybe Haaland? Because his release clause is expected to be active by this year so we never know what PSG will do after that.

PSG signed him with a lot of money and im thinking that if it has not yet paid off. This is also the main reason from PSG was not able to perform better in this season if the club must be playing without mbappe.
Mbappe consistently helping PSG a lot and it's may main concern this time. I meant that if PSG is trying so hard to make sure he will not be leaving for free but who knows since mbappe is trying so hard not extending his contract in PSG.

Mbappe may be changing his mind if PSG will able to win UCL this season but the chance is pretty small though. Mbappe is going to leave from club soon. Im very skeptic with him to stay in PSG for another year.
I remember PSG has recruited him for about 180 millions.

There is no way Haaland would want to prefer a move to PSG,he would rather stay at Mancity than move else where.Mbape is very eager to make a move from PSG to either Madrid or any north London club,I heard he was looking at moving to either Chelsea or Arsenal,but I think he would still stay at PSG because he is currently playing in the champions league with his team,and he wants to win the trophy with his club.

A quite reasonable desire for Mbappe even though PSG has more advantages when fighting in the Champions League and this is proven every season. However, for this season, PSG fans also hope that PSG will be different when they return to playing in the Champions League so that Mbappe can achieve what he wants with the PSG team this season.

Haaland is a big player and his contribution to the Manchester City squad is one that they can't do without, therefore, contemplating on a move to PSG is not even in his plans.

Moving to another team from Manchester City is not a good choice for Haaland if he is still able to achieve more unique achievements in the Premier League in the next few seasons. I think Haaland is in the right team and also in a very good league so for now there is no need to think about moving elsewhere.

It's no longer news that Paris Saint Germaine defeated Toulouse yesterday to win the Trophée des Champions yesterday which automatically became the club's manager Luis Enrique''s first trophy with club.
His facial gestures after the final whistle clearly tells how happy the Spaniard was to lay his hands on a trophy as Paris Saint Germaine manager. With the current performance of his team, I'm very sure they're not even gonna finish the season with just the TDC but will further win few more trophies. They're at the top of the league table and looks set to retain the title once again but it'll be a greater achievement for Luis Enrique and the whole club and her fans if they can go on to win the UEFA champions league trophy this season.

Unfortunately, there is also bad news for PSG regarding this match and it seems playing this game and winning the match was not cheap for Enrique and his players because there is an injured player now in PSG. Milan Škriniar the Slovak defender of PSG is injured and he is going to be out of the field for a long time. 70 minutes after the start of the game he couldn't continue the match and he left the game.
Now it seems this 28-year-old player needs surgery and he is going to all other games during this season.
Milan Škriniar played in 23 games so far and he scored one goal for PSG.

If that's true then it can be considered as a big lose for PSG. Those guys may not able to play for several weeks or even months. I remember that if PSG will have some gruelling schedules in the domestic and UCL.
This is going to be another huge challenge for PSG and enrique is still having a chance to solve it by buying the new players from other club, that's the only feasible solution for enrique this time.

Although I am not anticipating the presence of exceptional players, it is crucial for him to locate someone who is sufficiently qualified to occupy those positions. Winning the game against toulouse has been costing the club a lot.
Im doubting the performance from PSG without those guys in the upcoming game. PSG has some players who can replace them but we are concerning about the qualities owned by those players.
There will be no secondary player who can perform as well as all of them. That's an enormous blow for PSG at this moment. The club needs to try even harder to make a big changes through rotated soem players in the upcoming match.

It's kinda bad for PSG to miss some important players but it has been exchanged with the trophy which is still worthy. The worst thing would be if PSG lose against toulouse and some of its players were injured.
