The international break hasn’t solved PSG’s problems. Far from there.

As a reminder, PSG lost twice to Bayern Munich and Rennes, once to Lens on January 1, and also to Monaco, Marseille and since Sunday evening, OL. After a first part of the season without the slightest setback, PSG already have five in Ligue 1, as many as Reims, seventh.
With this poor record, Paris is putting itself in danger in the title race. Thanks to the results of the weekend, Lens and OM have returned to six points in the standings while the Parisians will travel to Nice, eighth, on Saturday before receiving the Sang et Or in a fortnight.
“I have players who have already won a lot of titles. I dare to hope that they are not jaded, that there will be a group and collective unity, launched Christophe Galtier after the setback against the men of Laurent Blanc. For those who are available, it will take more personality to get back to winning because the championship will be hard to win. “Especially if the PSG remains on the same standards.
