PSG vs Lens : the season's launch.

Ladies, Gentlemen, Gays and Theys.

Welcome to another read of The Football Thesis. This one comes a bit late because I had a very busy week with finals which I am delighted to anounce : I have graduated college, finally. Nahkyl MD is excited to bring you this review and I really hope you'll enjoy it !

Last saturday, PSG played against RC Lens and won 3-1 after 20 minutes that seemed a bit tough. Both teams are qualified for this year's UCL. What to make of it ?

Luis Enrique : finding balance

It's only the third game of the season, if we don't count the pre-season games. So I'm not going to be ecstatic but I must say, I am really excited by what I get to see. There's definitely a better use of Kylian and Ousmane's percussion than the last game against Toulouse. I think Enrique is on the right path to find the perfect balance between possession and transition. And that's the I.D of all big European clubs.

2. A promising midfield

If you watched last year's season, or even the years before that, you know our midfield has been a black hole. Vitinha was fading into the background, Ruiz was (still is) a ghost, and Verratti was going through the worst year he's ever been through as a football player and not doing shit to get away from it. WZE was the only one making efforts on the pitch, but he was only starting in Ligue 1 and Galtier was blind to his talent, forcing him to play his first UCL game on the RIGHT (I'm still mad about that).

That seems to change now. WZE is a gem that's growing by the game, Vitinha seems to be more free, still lacks at the finish but has been finding his marks a lot quicker. But the greatest hope comes in the name of Manuel Ugarte Ribeiro. Ugarte is definitely one of the tops of this year's mercato. He is the exact player profile we were looking for : an old school ball recoverer. He knows how to play in front and back to the goal. And more importantly : my guy is HUNGRY. My guy wants his team to devour. And that element is SO. important in games like these where the team is struggling to get into it.

I still think Verratti would be a huge contribution to our midfield, our little technical genius, but I also respect Luis' decision to not take players who don't show up off pitch. If you're an athlete, act like one.

3. Everyone wants a shot

What I noticed watching the game was that even if there were more occasions than goals, - something that could bite us in the ass in the UCL if we don't polish our finition - there's not a single player that didn't try to get into the surface. Not one. Like, I'm not gonna lie to you, I kept screaming at Hakimi because the dude is not a striker and should've made passes a lot more than he tried striking, and I'm pretty sure I saw Ousmane and Marco Asensio share the sentiment and yell at him. But then when the anger of missed occasions passed, I realized what that meant : our players wanted to have a shot at putting the ball in the net. All of them, even defenders. And felt comfortable enough, bold enough to do so. Whereas they wouldn't have DARED last year.

If you just started getting interested in PSG you might not realize how big of a deal this is. We've been waiting for three years to see such agressiveness on the pitch. Such might. Ever since Thiago Silva left, the already instable lockeroom due to the big (HUGE) star players that we had completely crumbled. And then it entirely collapsed with Messi's arrival. I'm not saying he's responsible, at all, I'm saying our lockers were already shaky and bringing in the sport's literal biggest legend (who apparently didn't even want to be there), it completely obliterated upcoming players. It anhiliated them.

Now, they look free. They look like they want to be here, they want to fight, they want to prove their worth. And I love that. I want that. I want to see that, I want to see players who want to fight for the jersey, for the badge. And when players feel like they have a chance to show themselves, to progress, that's when you create a collective. When everyone feels they have their place.

And during the second half, that's what we saw : we saw the birth of a group. Players were fighting for each other, helping each other, literally fighting each other : I literally almost cried when Kylian went all up in that defender's face for fouling Warren. That's what teamwork is about.

Which brings me to my next point : Marquinhos should not be captain. But I'll develop that in another post. One that will be specifically dedicated to that.

Flops:

Carlos Soler. Need I say more.

Overall, this game was important for them but also for us supporters because it is reassuring. Not necessarily about the play, because we still have a lot to prove in that aspect. But it showed us we might, for once, have a team that geniunely wants to play for Paris Saint Germain. To defend its colors. Warriors that want to fight with fucking honor and if you're a big European club supporter, that might seem like the bare minimum. But to us ? This is huge. Because it's the essence of the club, it's what PSG is about, that resilience. And for decades, that identity was walked over. It was trampled. And when you watch that happen, your heart bleeds. This may seem like I'm exagerating but it feels like a rebirth.

Kolo's siege to join might just be a sign that's the mentality the club is heading towards.

And as a football supporter, more than trophies, that's what matters most.

Thank you all for reading. See you after PSG vs OL !
