In his column for Die Zeit magazine, Philipp Lahm did not hide his disappointment with PSG’s performance in the Champions League during their elimination once morest Bayern Munich in the round of 16.
“PSG can make you sad. In Munich (0-2), we didn’t see the class that this team is supposed to have thanks to its exceptional players. It was a disappointment. But at the same time, there is no no surprise, because the early elimination of PSG from the Champions League is a recurring event,” said the German. “We can only pity the many PSG supporters who have made the trip to Munich. Their hope of seeing something emerge before their eyes vanishes every year. PSG is still as far from what we expect, despite years of investment.”
Qatar’s project with PSG cannot succeed according to the 2014 world champion. ‘offer. It gets attention but only works economically. If you spend so much money but the quality isn’t there, that’s not a good sign. (.. .) Qatar, the owner of the club, has used Paris, Europe and the players for its security policy and its geopolitical ambitions…. But football is something else. The big teams to which people identify with each other develop through a process. This can only work through cooperation and solidarity. These are the values of Europe, but not those of PSG. That is why this club remains an unfinished experiment. .”
