Sebastien Tarrago, journalist from The team, was expressed in The afternoon team, on the performance of Paris Saint-Germain, victorious 2-4 against Brestfind the summary and figures here) this Friday as part of the third day of Ligue 1. He points out that PSG dominated and was not particularly concerned. Highlight the goals conceded, but remember that there are still many absent and not least. It evokes the small flaws that Mauricio Pochettino He could find his way, especially defensive weakness if the three offensive stars don’t defend too much.
Tarrago « We cannot say that PSG is doing well in Brest… ”
“We cannot say that PSG is doing well in Brest… They are up there, they do what they want. I did not get the impression that they could award two points. We are often accused of being too harsh with PSG. They receive goals. But there, in fact, it lacks two centers among the best in the world. There are at least four players who will join the team. “
Tarrago He’s right, PSG largely dominated the game. But the fans and supporters expect more and we can understand them too. When we see that the other important teams in Ligue 1 have problems, we can also easily understand that at the beginning of the championship we should not wait too long either. A season is long and the foundations have to be laid. Pochettino I hadn’t had time to the Last season, he asked that we wait until this summer to better judge.
He is in his most important phase, getting his players to adhere to his style of play. We see the beginnings, but it is still too difficult to identify a tactic or a vision of the game. Great returns in attack and defense will change the face of this team, but the style Pochettino it must also exist without them. It will be less strong, but the essential points must emerge. The contribution of the stars will only increase the quality of this team.
Tarrago « Hakimi in a four man defense, I wonder “
“Afterwards, we can project ourselves and ask ourselves questions. Hakimi in a four-man defense, I wonder, even though I love him and think you’re fantastic on the ball. Will he hold out in the Champions League? I’m not sure. We know that Mbappé, Neymar and Messi will never be the best defenders in the world. You may have some doubts about the defensive quality of this team. “
It is an old sea serpent to say that PSG will suffer defensively with their stars. It must be recognized that the balance will not be as perfect as in a more balanced team, but it must also be noted that PSG may score many goals, push back the rivals, scare, both the attack of PSG is impressive. There is a lot to address defensive gaps and players know they will have to put in an effort. But at the same time, the imbalance will leave the opponent in the hole a bit uncomfortable.
If they project they will be able to score, but if they do, they will also expose themselves to the best in the world, namely Kylian. Mbappe, Neymar and lionel Messi (forwards of 22, 29 and 34 years old) that between them alone they scored 94 goals last year. We know Lionel’s ability Messi score very often in all positions. It will be a danger and the rivals will not be able to take the risk of playing “who will score more goals in the match”. We can understand the questions, but we must also refine the analyzes to make them more accurate.
