Over the years winning the champions league has become the main focus of most of the teams in Europe. You know if you wanna be considered an elite club you have to be a monster in the ucl

2/🧵

Yeah, the #ucl really indicates how strong your team is

Yes it does. But I don’t think it should be the defining factor always

Yeah, but that is what they used in judging which makes football boring sometimes when arguing

thats the big title

PSG have seen countless tries of winning it out to a stop by other giants of the competition. Even when it looked like they could finally win it, Bayern beat them in the final.

3/🧵

Yeah, that game, Bayern really mean it more than they did

Ever since they’ve been trying and trying. Their plan for the UCL was to get in the super stars who have had they experience before to try and win it

4/🧵

interesting to see the various strategies in play

But history has shown us that football is not like a movie and buying the stars doesn’t guarantee you the ucl

5/🧵

Never, would that be a guarantee

Mehn, the stars don’t care. They have won everything

yeah, it's the team that needs to look sharp now

They don’t need stars. They need players who wanna fight and win trophies.

Yeah, that is what is pushing them backwards

In their attempt to win it quickly they went in for messi when he left Barca on a free. After bring in messi they have only reached the last 16 of the competition ever since.

6/🧵

Haha, they thought having Messi and Mbappe would guarantee them to win the #ucl, lol

Mehn with messi, neymar, mbappe a lot of us thought they could do it haha

yeah, but zero results

Yes zero results unfortunately

they r match winners no doubt

teams rely on big players

yeah, and that doesn’t always help

messi is incredible

Before they bought him in they rarely got knocked out in the round of 16 but in the space of those two years they got knocked out by Real Madrid and also Bayern Munich.

7/🧵

They have tried and tried and now they wanna buy home grown talents. They will eventually win it but it will take a long time

8/🧵

Having the money to be able to buy in the stars always leaves you with this desire of getting them in even when you know it might not work.

9/🧵

times teams forget how important it is to bring in the youngsters while the old players are there. They will learn from them and transition into the team nicely

10/10

They underperformed this season too #football

yes that true. Winning just one trophy.

with all those star players,

I think they have yet to get a manager that will make this happen. They have had all the stars in the squad, some of the very best. But each season, they come short in the Champions league. Hoping they will do more next season. #football

I don’t think even pep can help them if they don’t change their football philosophy. They have had some of the best go there and yet it hasn’t worked out.

the results do not show the attempt

I remember my old days. I was awake till midnight to watch UCL matches. Good old dayds.

Well luckily for me I don’t have to stay up all night to watch a game. The matches are mostly around 19:00 unless it’s a pre season game

I love an underdog story too 😂. Imagine the scenes if they do win it. People will say Pep is cursed forever

yep the curse which I think isn’t really working. It’s just faith that pep hasn’t won it yet.
