Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain faces Real Sociedad in the round of 16 of the Champions League. A decisive meeting in the season of the capital club, which hopes to once again lift the big ears cup this year. After the transfers of Neymar and Messi, added to the probable departure of Kylian Mbappé this summer, PSG has changed its face and forgotten the bling-bling side. A wise choice according to Sylvain Armand, former Parisian player (2004-2013), as he told the newspaper The Parisian.
“It seems like the right solution to me.”first confirms the former left side. “When we compare with other teams like City, there are great players, we need them, but not only that. A team is a clever mix. That there is less bling-bling, as there may have been in the days of Neymar, Messi or Ramos, that is understandable. Today, PSG’s notoriety is well established. It is appropriate to attract complementary players. This was perhaps not the case last season with certain oversized egos., he then added. Today LOSC sports coordinator, Sylvain Armand has fond memories of one coach in particular: Carlo Ancelotti. According to him, Paris would have already won the C1 if the Italian technician “stayed longer” on the Parisian bench. “Paris would, I think, already be European champion” he estimated.
