This is the REAL Reason Why PSG’s Superteam FAILED

Download OneFootball here: tinyurl.com/dcuxjzab
Coming into the 2021-2022 season, PSG was thought to be the most fearsome club in the world. But now, this superteam looked more and more like a disappointment. Do they have what it takes to become the world's best club, or are they a failure? Here's why I think they were a failed superteam last season.

They might have the best front three on paper, but it's clear that they have yet to truly mesh. In Barcelona, the team was designed to function for Messi, but in PSG it's for Mbappe. Not to mention, while they have great players, their defenders and midfielders are not on the same level as the other big teams like Liverpool, City, Bayern, Madrid and etc. It's still a team that is run by individuals.

The front three doesn’t make up for the rest of the team. Messi, Neymar, and mbappe actually performed and played well, but PSG’s back four was absolutely HORRENDOUS last season, which was even more apparent during the Madrid second leg. If the defense steps up, psg will win 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@The_Duude99]

Exactly. People love to blame the big names but the attack and even the midfield which needs some improvement did really well vs real. Real basically got completely destroyed the first leg but courtois pulled out an insane performance so they only scored one. The 2nd leg they started the same way but then first donnarumma completely bottled it, and then marquinhos, the one who's usually the most reliable gave away another goal for free. Mbappe, messi, and neymar are all doing great. They work well together and deliver. But a team is more than just 3 attackers

Even Messi passes to Mbappe at every opportunity he gets. It's just like Xavi and Iniesta providing for Messi at every opportunity back in prime Barca.

I agree whatever you said. You nailed it. Including Messi who is great is not as passionate as he was when he was playing for Barcelona. But he is still great. But the trio comparison with Brooklyn Nets is a little bit off. The Brooklyn trio played only 26 games together I guess and still won about 20 games. So their chemistry was good. They were all injured At different times and couldn’t play all the games together and still qualified for play offs and beat Celtics with ease. The comparison could be better if it was compared with Lakers. Lebron, Westbrook and Davis. They didn’t even qualify for the play offs. Westbrook is never passionate about playing basketball just like Mbappe

I honestly despise Mbappe. There’s no doubt that he is a more than fantastic player, most likely to take Messi’s and Ronaldo’s place as the best player(s) after they leave. However, he is clearly very immature and egotistical. And I think that’s a bit problem with the team, considering he basically owns it now. I have more thoughts on the situation but no time to write them down right now, but that’s my biggest problem with PSG.

[@ChuckMaison]

With Luis Campos appointed, PSG is no more signing big names. We've seen with their new signings (Vitinha, Renato Sanches(pending, Skrinar(pending). I think they've also taken account of how weak thier midfield was and how the team needs to be a family hence the new strict rules by the hierachy. I would'nt write them off. The only problem I have is Neymar, he is going to be the weakness of PSG due to his childish tentrums of screaming and getting angry when tackled. Teams will know how to destabilize PSG through getting under Neyma's skin. Watch

[@imaginethisisagoodname4368]

luis campos does have a *lot* of work to do, if successful, PSG will be the first french side to ever win the treble, maybe even the first team ever to win it consecutively. they have the talent for that (i personally find them better than madrid 2016-18), and if they get their stuff together, they will do it

Hey Raymar, i watching all your videoes and is very interesting, can you make a separate video on why the french league is so weak compared to spanish, italian or english league?

[@aleksandervaller]

Also there is only one french team that has ever one Champions league and that was Marseille in 1993 and that is pretty disappointing when you see small country like netherlands that have 6 Champions league titles combined

[@IndividualQuestion]

First, PSG should take back the amount of access take gave to mbappe. Second, people should stop crying about players that have a good mental health and make good decision and therefore try to support PSG. Third, PSG lacks chemistry

[@outlawfly664]

Even this quality "on paper" narrative is false. Messi, Neymar and Serio Ramos are "has been", Hakimi is a Madrid reject. The only real exceptional future quality i see in that team is Mbappe but he will never develop as a player in that circus club. PSG has a very average midfield, defense and goalkeeper. Even on paper clubs like Real Madrid are far better, from attack to the goal keeper.

[@wesakajr]

Yeah i agree with the things you say in the video but i feel like is trend to hate on PSG nowadays.

[@lonewolfe2502]

It's the formation which is the problem. In 4-3-3 formation, wingers and striker are not the only important player. The most important players is central midfielder. Because in this formation striker gets easily isolated if you're relying him on too much. Also it's difficult for winger to score goal because most of the time they have to take diagonal shots which are difficult to execute. One more thing they can do is crossing but for that you need really good player with incredible strength and heading accuracy which their forwards lack. So here comes the role of central midfielder because they can exploit the space in middle and either take a shot or can create chance for a striker to score a goal with their through passes.

[@jovancvetojevic3980]

Couldn't disagree more, football is played with 11 players. PSG was (is) simply not a team that was assembled with a coherent plan behind it, which makes it impossible to coach, it's kind of like Real's Galactics. Throwing an absurd amount of money at the highest profile player every transfer season regardless of fit is the problem. Does Messi really make sense in that team?

He loves the game.. he was inspired by the winning project that the team needs & wants the UCL. He's a passionate & innovative player & will always be, because he has the right winning mentality to be a champion for the team he plays for. He plays for the team, not himself....

Last season against Madrid psg was up 2-0 aggregate with 30 minutes left in the 2nd leg and somehow someway got eliminated in the end after Madrid scored 3 goals. You’d think if psg choked up that aggregate lead they’d still go into extra time at least, but no, they completely bottled and lost in 30 minutes. Psg can dominate. But they choke. You will never see psg absolutely get fully overperformed, but they choke. You can expect psg to be up 5-0 in the first leg and you can bet in the 2nd they will somehow get eliminated. Its crazy, it’s like this club purposefully fixes it so that they lose from a comeback, and specifically in the last minutes, lmfao.
