They miss Cavani on a frustrating night like this. Icardi is a great finisher but doesn’t do enough to work defenders.
Champions League Knockouts (12 Aug - 23rd Aug)

Has Anthony Taylor got some booking quota to meet
Surprised he hasn't been taken off myself, even if you take put tharlt tackle he's been dreadful
How is Ander doing?
Say what you want about Neymar and his attitude but he sure is entertaining.
Anonymous, possibly worse than anonymous.
The defensive shape of Atalanta today is possibly the most compact I've seen in years (maybe since Benitez was Liverpool manager). You could put a blanket over their entire XI when PSG are in possession.
Which Atalanta player will PSG go for if they go out tonight?
How much of a legendary season (and encounter) would that have been without the return leg?
Target man on top of that. Always running in positions and fending off defenders, I would die of exhaustion within 15 minutes haha.
Navas is injured. Sergio Rico coming on.
I was joking with you, there were about 30 posts about it when the goal was scored.
Was alright in the first half, less than alright in the second.
Tuchel is a comic figure, entirely appropriate he’s in plaster. A touch of Basil Fawlty about him.
PSG are not very good
Very ordinary team with 2 superstar players

Neymar and Mbappe should leave PSG asap. Wasting their talent.
Gasperinis shoes selection doesn't do any good to the notion of chic that Italian men are supposed to embodify.
Pirlo to the rescue.
Pirlo to the rescue.
I liked his style when he was at dortmund but he has been underwhelming since joining PSG. Becoming another emery.
Now Rico not coming on.
They have a few very good players.. but they often look like a bunch of players put together.
I had the same thought - is that really Italian fashion sense?!
20 minutes maybe 2 opportunities max to equalize
That pace was terrifying.
Would be a great lookalike if he had mustache.
Not even joking, Greenwood buries that.
I loved Herrera when he was here, but we've not missed anything. In games where onus is on the midfield to create, he's pretty average.
74 minutes for PSG to get their 2nd shot on target in the game..
Is Kehrer a natural RB? PSG could really do with someone better than him
Is it worth sticking a 10er on PSG to win in 90 minutes?
Turned a decent crossing opportunity into a one on one!
We ain’t missing much with Herrera judging on that performance
Nope
Yes, often think Tuchel looks frustrated managing them. Very much a squad of individuals who don't quite manage to make a team.
Easily!
Is it time for a Greenwood vs Mbappe thread?
Yeah he was right up there next to Marko Marin
Nah they are not looking good. Atlanta defends well.
Looking at Herrera I can see how average he is, a player you wouldnt notice at all and still here he was rated by some as a key player.
We won in Munchen but everyone and their dog remember Mihajlović assisting that own goal, truly a legendary moment. I think that draw in Belgrade is much more remembered than the final in Bari itself. Pitch invasion after the game and all.
I wasn't even born then
But after all this talk I like this one leg further over home & away better, not that it matters as it's not happening ever.
