If someone often watches the Champions League and Ligue 1 then it can seem very easy to judge because they used to have the best strikers in the team but there wasn't much they could do in the Champions League. In the Champions League, the strongest team may not necessarily be able to win, especially if PSG only relies on Mbappe individually because the Champions League is quite different from any other league, apart from experience it also requires collective player maturity.
For me, PSG is not the favorite team in the Champions League because there are many things they need to evaluate. Maybe we need to wait a few seasons so that Luis Enrique can bring PSG into a strong team and that depends on how management gives him the opportunity to manage PSG.
Favorites teams, Paris Saint Germain doesn't come close, it was 2 seasons back that we were able to sketch Les Parisiens as a potential club to win the UCL title. However they will keep making attempts until one faithful season, they will be crowned Champions of the UEFA Champions League which is regarded as the best trophy for club levels. Every UCL season, PSG makes it but they're unable to win the trophy, I keep asking myself this question repeatedly, why should we become surprised knowing fully well the standard of PSG and their incapability to win.
PSG are nowhere among teams who can fight for the Tittle this season.We have seen how they play,and one can conclude that they won't even be able to reach Semi final of the tournament.Messi,and Neymar was in that same team,and they couldn't win the champions league,talk more of now that those duo are no more with the club.We all know that one tree cannot make a forest,that is to say,only Mbape cannot make PSG win the Champions league.I tip Real Madrid, Dortmund and Mancity and Inter Milan to be serious contenders to the league tittle.We just need to watch out and see which team can win the trophy.
Yes, I agree with you that PSG's squad was better in previous years, but you are wrong about this. PSG still has the possibility of winning the UCL this year, although it is difficult. Last year, Inter had good draws until the final. Maybe this will be the case in PSG and the best player in the final will win. On the other hand, I think they have the strength to eliminate Real Sociedad. Even if Mbappe is not alone, he may be able to achieve this with the tactics of Luis Enrique and other players.
