Eliminated by Real Madrid in the knockout stages of the Champions League, Paris SG still showed huge mental shortcomings. Nicolas Anelka has his opinion on the matter.
The Champions League is not yet for this season. Paris SG has once again said goodbye to its title hopes in the most prestigious of European competitions. And the worst part is that the club from the capital was in a more than favorable position to qualify for the break this Wednesday evening against Real Madrid. But everything changed.
Nicolas Anelka, former player of both teams, tried to analyze what happened at the Santiago Bernabéu. And for the 2000 European champion, there is no doubt that the Rouge-et-Bleu are too fragile. “Mentally, the Parisians weren’t strong when a problem arose. It’s terrible, but this mental fragility is part of their identity.he slipped to the Parisian before continuing.
Change, and fast
“She (the Parisian team) has the technique and the physique. But not the mind. There is a progression to be had in this field, but which does not arrive. It only takes one endangerment to go into the negative. The worst is the lack of reaction”. Showing his regrets, the former tricolor international (69 selections, 14 achievements) called for changes in his wishes within the Ile-de-France team, hoping in particular that more former members of the house would be involved.
“It is good that there is money. But it also takes people to instill a Parisian mentality in those who arrive. And you also have to think about other criteria when recruiting. If you sign for PSG, you must have very specific mental qualities., dropped the ex-striker, disappointed that the bosses of the club are hiding behind arbitration to explain this new fiasco. On good terms.
