Mourinho and Chelsea should Sort Paris Out....but those STARS can cause an Upset
PSG won't win. It may come as a shock to some seeing how confident I am that Chelsea will sign, SEAL and deliver this tie, but when you have the wrong man at the helm, even with stars as PSG have, a loss is the only eventuality going up a against a quality team that is WELL coached.
But stars....are stars....
The saying is that the better team always beats the amalgamation of stars. And that is true more times than not. But in the world of sport and football especially, if you have one or two guys who have an AMAZING game and produce magic, it is enough to beat a much better TEAM.
That is the only way PSG are winning this tie. With whatever players they have healthy for the match against Chelsea, THEY have to show up and produce something amazing if they are to win. Because if we are talking strategy and tactics, PSG don't have a clue whereas Mourinho has all the answers and will know precisely how to shut down the Parisien team.
It's a stronger Chelsea team who have an actual finisher and not the blonde one. And with a mixture of Matic and Fabregas, there is more meat and creativity in that midfield. So what you have is Blanc having to figure out how to remove Matic out of the equation and stop Fabregas from feeding Costa and Hazard. And my house, belongings and all my pornstars I would be willing to bet that Blanc does not have a CLUE how to stop these threats that Chelsea have.
I hear Moura is not playing and that is a big miss...especially for myself.
PSG need to have players that can force the very rigid system of Chelsea's to disperse. Because their strength is in staying as a unit and being disciplined. Once they are dragged all over the place and have to run, that is where they falter. It's how Spurs beat them by just being quicker than them and just forcing them to defend in a manner they were not comfortable with.
But with the injuries I am hearing coming out of the Paris camp and with Chelsea almost at full strength....this will be a 1-1 as My Boy is very conservative when it comes to these games, but I won't be surprised if Paris capitulate and Hazard has a really good game with Chelsea ending the tie with perhaps a 2-1 victory.
The problem has always been and will always be....BLANC.
