PSG's big bet was geared toward becoming European champion, not extending its home dominance, and that's reflected in the relative apathy toward another ...
It’s not the only club to operate under that mantra, but when you put all of your Fabergé eggs in one basket, you must live with the ramifications when it doesn’t work out. That the Champions League final was relocated to Paris this year only twists the knife even more. Barring an exorbitantly expensive U-turn, the out-of-contract star is likely headed for Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer in another blow to PSG and one that leaves it suddenly reliant, for next year, anyway, on an aging Messi-Neymar duo. But all of that is besides the point. Eight will have come in the last 10 seasons, a product of the Qatari investment that has turned the club into one of Europe’s handful of domestic monopolizers. In 17 Karim Benzema–authored minutes, all of PSG’s primary targets for the season were lost, in the round of 16, no less, and all of its ghosts of European failure returned.

Parisians could secure league victory on Saturday but season will be remembered for the extraordinary stumble against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The Italy goalkeeper Gigio Donnarumma’s first season in France will be remembered for the error he made to allow Benzema to score the first of his goals in the Champions League comeback. He has eight, across competitions, from his first campaign for a club other than Barcelona, where over the previous 13 seasons he always scored more than 30. Pochettino has made several veiled references to fundamental differences in his and the club’s ‘vision’. From the club’s point of view he has fallen short of his predecessor Thomas Tuchel’s standard in Europe, where the owners crave success. Sergio Ramos, the veteran who joined from Madrid, has been fit to start only four times in Ligue 1. He corrected that almost immediately by guiding PSG to the Trophee des Champions, a one-off domestic Super Cup-style trophy, but could not make up the lag behind surprise Ligue 1 pacesetters Lille in the chase for the title. Barring an implausible series of slip-ups, the 2021/22 French league will have been won by the same dominant club that has claimed seven of the last nine.

"It's never easy, but I think it's a good performance from us. "Winning the title as soon as possible is the best possible outcome," he said. Whatever Marseille do this weekend, Paris will claim the title if they beat Lens as expected.
