Some of their games are decent. Similar to our league.

It’s a wonder we struggle so much against French teams in the CL.

I’m sure they are. Not really relevant though.

Lol, you continue your snobbery and live in denial then.

it’s not my loss.

113 in 120 for PSG, with 65 assists.

In the Fish and Chip shop League though, or Snail’s and Brie League, it’s pretty shite really.

How many games have you watched in it?

The French League is unfairly maligned. I have watched a fair number of matches in France when on holiday, mostly at Nantes and Rennes. The standard of play is below that in England, Spain, Germany and Italy but above that of any other country.

The French League always used to be competitive before the rise of PSG. But then again so did the German League! The Italian League was dominated by Juventus forever but is now slightly more competitive.

City have a good record against PSG but less so against other French teams.

A fair summation of their league. PSG have the same issues as us and have to break the lowest of blocks on regular occasions.

Our biggest win against PSG was aided by Mbappe being an injured unused sub, of course.

Good record but it's a weaker league than German one

They are totally different players who would work well together. Mbappe is like Henry but Haaland is like Gerd Muller. Imagine them both in our front three.

Gerd Muller was one of my favourite non City players..he was dynamite

 

[KS55]

Just imagine him upfront with John Cleese.

Fair enough.

I think if we take away City bias, that most fans would pick Mbappe.

I also understand that won’t be popular on here.

Wasn’t there a poll on here a while ago about this ?
