A midfielder plays one of the key roles behind a team's good performance. But PSG team does not have any good midfielder. As a result, I don't think the PSG team will perform very well in League One this time.
A good player in every point of the team will definitely help the team to a better place. Whether it's midfield, defense or forward, quality players are essential everywhere. The defense will prevent the opponent's attack, the midfield will prevent the opponent's attack as well as help his team to attack and the forward will always break the opponent's defense and score for the team, so these three points are very important. PSG may have forgotten that the midfield must be given importance to improve the team's performance because if they hadn't forgotten, they would have bought the world's best midfielder at the time they bought three of the best stars in the world. If the world's best midfielder defense and forward were in PSG at the same time, then PSG would be one of the best teams in Europe at this time.

Of course but in most teams it is not as if every position would be filled with a high quality outstanding player. Some of them are, and some of them understand their role within the team and do a lot of hard work and make their contribution that way.

But it is problematic when an entire line in the squad lacks high quality players. For example, if you have a strong defense and midfield line but no good strikers, the team will have problems to score. We have seen that with other usually good teams already. Lacking a creative high level midfielder is also impossible to compensate for with strong defenders or strikers. At best every position is filled with high quality, but if it is not then it is good to have at least one or two high quality players per line in the squad.
