PSG; European PacesetterssteemCreated with Sketch.

in #football6 years ago (edited)

French champions, Paris Saint Germain may not be living to the fullest of their potentials when it comes to a team as seen in recent years but still does not take away the glamour from their dominance.

Despite huge investments, especially bringing in Neymar - with the World Transfer record fee of close to £200 million- from Barcelona, they still have not lived up to expectations expectations.

French Wonderkid, Kylian Mbappe was also hijacked from rivals, Monaco, with great expectations on his shoulder, the capital club is still yet to harness their potential to the fullest, especially in Europe.

They woefully crashed our of last season's champions league to eventual champions Real Madrid and have not been too impressive this season rather, drawing their last game 2-2 at against Napoli courtesy of a late Angel Di Maria strike.

Regardless of this, they have continued to show their superiority and dominance in the domestic league, always brushing aside all opponents.

It is no surprise then that with 12 matches played across all top five European leagues, the Capital club remains the only side to have won maximum points, 36 points.

The 2-1 win against Lille over the weekend means the Champions have already established a whooping 11 points gap between them and second placed Lille.

Lille must have thought they had done enough to deny the champions their 12th straight win until the two wonders of Paris, Mbappe and Neymar struck in the final 20 minutes despite the visitors getting a consolation from the spot in stoppage time.

The Thomas Tuchel handled side return to action in the champions league on Tuesday night with a visit to Napoli as the second leg of group games commence.

The major task of Tuchel as made obvious is the Champions League title which former manager, Unai Emery also failed to deliver before his move to Arsenal on the summer.

Whether or not PSG can turn their fate and rekindle their hope for a champions league title would be decided in Naples.
