As we all witnessed last month, some transfers transcend the transfer thread, and a supreme talent such as this certainly qualifies as well. This superstar takes Paris one step closer to its stated goals of becoming first European Champions and farther down the line: the biggest club in the world. He will join arguably the best young corps of players in the game today, and a club that has taken major steps forward in each of the 4 years under current ownership.

Welcome ADM

The nose is on his way out,
The Italian midfielder is wildly talented, but possibly crazier than Sergio Ramos,
Marquinhos, stud
The other CB, stud with intermittent brain farts
Cavani, bust
Lavezzi, haven´t seen enough of him to properly opine
Keeper, I´d imagine he´s nearly top notch (Sirigu, no?)
I´m missing four

Will the attack be total anarchy, and will 8 defend?

All this said, I agree, PSG is assembling a viable force that could challenge for real titles.

PSG have accomplished a lot more in their first 45 years than ManU did in theirs

Wrong, he's been a beast when played up front

Seriously, I am very cognizant of PSG´s potential, and warily respectful, but yáll got hoodwinked on the Cavani deal.

He works his arse off (there is ALOT to be said about that), but he´s nowhere near the caché of a crack that Nápoli made him out to be....

i mean if that's getting hoodwinked that's fine. He scored the goal to make PSG the first french team to ever win the domestic treble.

He has scored a lot of other goals as well. He had something like 13 or 14 in the last 9 games of the season or something, when Ibra was mostly hurt or suspended.

More than Lavezzi, Javier Pastore is the Argentine that could easily fully blossom into his promise and become their true magician if the attack is to become CL title contender worthy.


In comparison to the other Shiekh club, that PSG can draw on French instead of English talent to build their midfield around Verratti and to compliment the elite South Americans would seemingly bode well for their team construction into the future (as Real, Barca, Bayern and Juve have been able to do in cherry picking elite domestic players who actually compliment the "galacticos"). .

I´m not looking to get into a pissing match. I like his pluck and verve, but he´s a garbage scorer. He doesn´t create, he scores based on being mad intent on following up a play.

There is alot to be said about that, but that is not a stellar striker or ´killer´.


Anyway, how will DiMaría be accomodated?

Also, after rereading your post, I misunderstood who you were talking about....you forgot Thiago Silva

Thiago Silva is the solid one with intermittent brain farts.

PSG are a very young club though

But who won more trophies in the first 45 years of existence, PSG or ManU?
