Even I am consistently saying we have decrease in French League quality in last few years with lack of funds and quality players are hurting badly but in this game we have PSG vs Clermont which is currently at the bottom and having nothing positive in last few games they were able to stop Mbappé and PSG all attack to score any goal against them which is surely more than shocking for the all soccer fans because no one was expecting result like these we have few shocking results in different leagues as well but goalless draw is surely big slap on PSG and their multi-billion squads against team like Clermont.
There were few hopes we will have some improvement even right now it's just early days in season but still things are not going as they needed to be done Luis Enrique is big name, but he needs time to settle many problems which are coming from last few years hopefully things will be improved now they are heading to England for the another challenge against Newcastle United which is also not easy and any result less than win is surely going to hurt their confidence and cause for having positive end of this season.
Did you mention PSG is short of funds this season. I think they are one of the teams in Ligue 1 that has quite strong financial strength compared to other teams. In fact, they brought in 11 players in the last summer transfer window so it's not too epic if we say they are short of funds this season. Indeed, PSG performance is not very good this season because in 7 matches they were only able to record 3 wins. One thing that makes me less confident about PSG performance this season is because of the imbalance that has occurred in their squad because PSG have not found a better strategy in building teamwork in every match.
PSG only depends on Mbappe so that when he fails to score a goal, PSG will achieve less than satisfactory results in that match. Like when PSG was held to a draw by Clermont where in that match they were able to play quite well but they had difficulty scoring goals because they only relied on Mbappe. Apart from that, several new PSG players have not found a good enough adjustment to the strategy implemented by Luis Enrique.
