Not that it counts for owt, but I live in Paris.
Have a colleague whose brother is part of the sports performance department at PSG (one of the geeks who collates physical performance info following training and matches to see who needs resting etc.)
My colleague (a regular at the Parc des Princes) loves the guy, but agrees that - although skilled - he lacks a bit of the physicality necessary for the PL.
That would have been my opinion too, but then again I don't watch enough French footie to be able to push a valid opinion (not something that should stop me on the BM Transfer Forum, I know, but I thought I'd say so none the less) :D
