I've forgotten the feeling of winning a major trophy.

Last time united and Nigeria won major trophies was 2013.

Ha, your own good. I was 10 when Ac Milan won the CL, 14 when we last won the league. And I've never seen Ghana Black Stars win a trophy

He went aggro at Gnabry when he fouled Neymar, despite Gnabry and Neymar being cool with eachother afterwards...

Well, we won the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa but I understand what you mean.

MAJOR trophies

So they signed Icardi permanently for what reason ?

Cavani left.

PSGs lack of a good midfield really showed in this match.
You're one nil behind, you need your midfield to take control of the game, but no, we had Neymar having to drop deep to try and create shyt...
Shocking how directors cant see shyt that is clear to even novice fans

I don't know... the way the team is constructed I'm reluctant to put the blame squarely on the midfield. They have to be oriented more defensively to compensate for the front three, so you're not going to get as much going forward. I thought they did their job

If anything, the big money players upfront were the ones that left a lot to be desired

Perisic does provide cover for Davies, but PSG have had RB problems and Coman will exploit that far better. Also I'm guessing as PSG is Comans old team, the level of performance could be even greater going forward than from what Perisic will provide.
