@dikketuur_nl I really hope its this year.
Real and Bayern are in the bad shape, Borusia, Liverpool, Man. City and PSG do not have that capability to go for trophy. Although if PSG win, i would see them as an outsider, coz they have never won Champions League

PSG will never win the UCL. Good enough to wreck the French farmer league but in the UCL they always disappear after the round of 16 and if they're lucky quarter finals

PSG is overrated.

@dikketuur_nl Be a bit objective my friends ... PSG is one of the best club in the world!

@slyderbat Never.

Not even close.

@dikketuur_nl You do not know anything about football then!

dikketuur_NL

Very objective coming from a French guy haha

PSG wrecks the Ligue 1 because it's a farmer league, but to compete in European top football they're simply not good enough. If you don't believe me, look at their UCL results since 2012 ('cause before 2012 they played EL)

2012-13: quarter finals
2013-14: quarter finals
2014-15: quarter finals
2015-16: quarter finals
2016-17: round of 16
2017-18: round of 16
2018-19: will lose to Liverpool on Wednesday and won't make it past the group stage

Basically what I'm saying is, PSG is a good team, but not good enough to compete for the UCL. Money can buy a lot, but not everything

@dikketuur_nl You can say what you want .... At the time when we talk about the PSG has 2 big star in his team ... and has great player behind ... The PSG is very often made fly ! ... And you tell me that we do not pass the quarter ... ok but we fall against teams of a similar level to ours .... like the barca real .... We beat the barca 4 -0 to go to be robbed on the return ... we lose against Real by being robbed in the first leg .... It was a draw against Naple .... Where we still fly !! We lose JUST 3-2 against liverpool playing very very badly .... It's up to you to think what you want ..

dikketuur_NL

It is indeed up to me to think what I want.

I'm not saying PSG is a bad team. They are a good team with some world class players, I just don't see them as possible CL-winners (this season).

It's all about the money... Just overrated...

@dikketuur_nl Same like City.

@furrax_nl I do not see how PSG is overestimating

@Slyderbat PSG only have money, and noting else. Problem is that they do not have history and league. Even the Red Star Belgrade and Steacua Bucuresti have a trophy of champions league in their cabinet, but also, they have never plazed the final. like Partizan belgrade, panantainakos, malmo... Other problem is league, they do not have other clubs to compete with, and its known that psg will be champion for the next 5 years in the row. So it is big disclaimer it is the one of the best clubs of europe.

Because every year they fail to proceed in the UCL.
Ofcourse they win the Ligue 1 and the French cup and stuff, because there is barely competition. There was Monaco, but apparently they're a one season wonder, too bad. French league is boring enough as it is.

PSG never was, and never will be, a big club. Just a bunch of rich sheikhs who think they can buy everything in life.

Exactly. I look at teams like Red Star Belgrade, Ajax, Anderlecht, Steaua Bucarest etc. and I see bigger clubs than PSG.
A lot of money can buy you a good squad and some trophies, but you can't buy history.

The Beautiful One

Hope PSG and Napoli can beat Liverpool on two final matchdays. Would love to see Liverpool to knocked out of UCL in group stage.

@the-beautiful-one Why?

The Beautiful One

@furrax_nl Because I'm an Everton fan and I hate Liverpool
