Yeah, I mean, that used to be a failing of PSG's in the Champions League, particularly at the height of their own Galacticos era.
They were so used to having the rule of the roost at home that when things started to go against them in the Champions League, you did sometimes see quite spectacular losses of composure.
they almost couldn't believe the temerity of their opponents to be taking the lead against them and causing them problems because no one did this to them domestically.
I mean, yeah, they haven't always been at their best this season.
I think something that you notice with PSG is there are just...
different motivation levels in the Champions League and the gap between performance levels domestically and in Europe can occasionally be pretty huge.
So I would have thought PSG would back themselves to respond better if they do fall behind.
But
As everyone knows, it's not a situation that PSG frequently find themselves in.
So I think if Arsenal could get the opener, I mean, it's an obvious thing to say, but that would put them in a hugely advantageous position.
They'll be wary of the threats that Arsenal pose, but my expectation is that they will go for it.
I think they feel at their most confident and their most comfortable when they're playing Luis Enrique football kind of dialed up to 11.
When they are just going for the jugular, when Ashraf Hakimi is crashing into the penalty area from right back.
When Ousmane Dembele is, you know, dropping to the edge of his own penalty area to pick up the ball.
You know, we saw that particularly against Chelsea in the last 16.
Extremely even first leg in Paris and one that was in the balance almost throughout until, you know, that very costly error by Philipp Jürgensen gifted PSG the goal that put them ahead on the night and put them ahead in the tie.
And the PSG that we saw at Stamford Bridge were completely different beats that you felt that confidence coming back into them
Those long sequences of possession where they're just popping the ball around and almost glorying in their ability to starve their opponents of the ball.
And they will want to take charge in that way.
They will want to score early and then they can think about how to manage the rest of the game.
