Why the hell have PSG not bought a striker? Or have they?

Jese. He'll be back after NT break. He had appendicitis.

Would like to see more of Kevin Augustin

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:24 pm

Monaco is underrated imo. Once Falcao comes back (he was fantastic in preseason; got a hamstring pull), they will be tough as hell.

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:27 pm

PSg look disorganized... What the heck is Emery doing.

by RealGunner Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:27 pm

IIRC he spends the first 2 months experimenting with the squad lol.

Is that supposed to be a joke?
Jese's not a proven striker, least of all a CF. Has scored a sum total of 18 goals in all comps over five season ffs.

They gave away 50 season goals in all comps with Ibra. What the hell are they thinking?

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:35 pm

Cavani is supposed to be the main guy, Jese the backup and Augustin the 3rd.

They signed Ben Arfa as additional offense.

Cavani scored 25, 31 and 25 goals for PSG the last 3 seasons. Just in a really bad stretch right now.

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:35 pm

2-0 Monaco.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:36 pm

So they looked at Cavani's performances during these last seasons and concluded they'd make him their main man?

Hmm.

Seems a bit risky to me.

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:38 pm

They looked at how good he looked when Ibra was out the season before last... took 6 weeks to get going. But Cavani went in beast mode after that. Sucked again when Ibra came back.

I'd give him until October and he should be back imo.

by RealGunner Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:38 pm

Yessss Monaco

by Lord Awesome Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:56 pm

Feels good right now. Afro

Screw watching Valencia right now. I'm watching Monaco primarily from now on.

Emery needs to realize that Pastore should be the main man in the attack not Cavani, imo.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:08 pm

So I see Serge Aurier has been pardoned? Laughing

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:12 pm

Cavani FFS

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:30 pm

3-1 Monaco

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:30 pm

AURIEEER GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

by sportsczy Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:41 pm

FT 3-1 Monaco

Guingamp heads the table.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 9:57 pm

Is Willy still Bordeaux coach? I wondered that when I saw him sitting below Jogi in the Allianz Arena watching us against Bremen on Friday

by Mr Nick09 Sun Aug 28, 2016 10:06 pm

Psg lol what the heck

by RealGunner Sun Aug 28, 2016 10:12 pm

Emery"l'Académie Française se réunira demain pour décider d'éventuelles sanctions"

Is he talking about transfers?

by Hapless_Hans Sun Aug 28, 2016 10:17 pm

sounds more like they're going to ban Burkinis among France's leading intellectuals or something

by juve_gigi Sun Aug 28, 2016 10:26 pm

I think PSG needs to shake things up. First order of business is to sell Verratti to Juve...

by Glory Mon Aug 29, 2016 6:44 am

Will they panic and go for Sturridge now ? Because clearly Cavani upfront is their obvious weak link.

by sportsczy Mon Aug 29, 2016 7:11 am

Nothing of the sort lol... both with Carlo and Blanc in their first seasons, they sucked until December. New managers like to experiment with everything and it tends to be messy early on.

They look disorganized. I don't think the players know exactly what to do yet when facing different tactics. Monaco is a good team anyhow. It's not like they lost to Dijon or anything.
