Right now after the Injury he is struggling a bit but it's good that their young players are more mature now because when Benzema is struggling to score goals at the moment there are Rodrygo, Vini, Valverde and even Asensio who are options.
Well, at least there was still a good thing about his injury and I think this is to push their young guns to strive while he is out, well it is a good thing what he has established has truly gotten recognition, and I think he will strive for more years to come, and Vinicius Junior, Federico Valverde, and Rodrygo deserves something in his absence, but truly Karim Benzema does it best,
the number of star players is not a guarantee that a team can achieve good results, the PSG team is currently still very behind from several other European teams such as Real Madrid or Manchester City, so it's only natural that PSG are not candidates for the UCL title this season. this, it's all seen from the games they've been through this season.
and for Manchester City I think they deserve to be favorites this season to win the title, they are very strong in every game both in the UCL and in their domestic league.
but this is the highest event of the blue continent, all the teams give everything on this stage and of course every match is always filled with high tension, mentality is needed and everything is still possible to happen and Manchester City is not an experienced team on the european stage . they have been favorites in the last few seasons but they always fail.
for this season is also still a mystery, in UCL many surprises and unexpected things happen, so let's just wait. all still have the same chance to win the title. for now it is too early to say such things.
The Fact is there is no such great team, every team will need particular things to be called a team, if they are not working properly and the chemistry is bad then likely a team will eventually be having trouble or problem in that part,
Now Manchester City with the Addition of their new players is now the favorite they now have remarkable play that is qualified for the championship, so there is no surprise there now PSG really needs to have those traits to be more efficient next season,
