To perform at the highest level, does a club have to necessarily need large sizes in the midfield? For Pierre Ménès, it’s obvious: if Paris Saint-Germain had a complicated season, it’s because of the unphysical profiles of their circles.

“This season, the team hasn’t worked. We can say quite easily that it’s Galtier’s fault, but I think that PSG’s squad was bad and above all extremely unbalanced. You can’t play anymore in Ligue 1 and even less in C1 with a midfielder Renato Sanches-Verratti-Vitinha, who culminates at 1.72 meters in height max, judged the journalist on his blog.It is impossible, it no longer exists. PSG made the mistake of believing that Messi, Neymar and Mbappé were going to make the PSG season between them.

Rodri to Manchester City, Declan Rice to Arsenal, Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid… The trend is clearly towards the race for control towers at the heart of the game.
