I completely agree with you, it's what the fans have been screaming about for a while now. To stop this commercialization of the club and to bring it back to a sporting project. What people misunderstood when Neymar, Messi, Ramos were getting booed, at least from talking to a few other PSG fans, it wasn't about booing those players, it was a message to send to the higher-ups that the fans want a team, they don't want just big names all over the place like a 12 year old playing FM with a save editor.
Regarding Conte, how do you explain such a disparity between his ability to be brilliant tactician in different leagues, but somehow always coming up way short in the CL? Unfortunately with Zidane most likely never coming to PSG since France is less than a year away unless something crazy happens and Deschamps stays beyond that, which I really doubt, it's hard to see then who would take over. I wish PSG had gone with a long-term contract and giving authority to a proper manager to build a project a la City, but it's been always about taking shortcuts and rushing to a CL title without checking if your laces are tied.
You lot have a ton of potential, can basically gobble up all the talent france produces of which there are many and with your financial muscle , easily bring in the talent needed to fix those areas you need.
With how obsessed Qataries are to achieve European glory i think you will eventually get there, after you've exhausted all the short term fixes.
In regards to conte I actually rate him a lot , I feel he's a top 5 coach in the world who's done great wherever he's went and his teams were mostly better off after , building the foundations of juves success, getting inter's first title after 11 years and then being favorites to win it again this year, getting Chelsea's last league title and doing admirably in Italy but his failure in Europe has been constant during all of it , he failed to even pass the group stages with either of his Italian teams ( juve would go on to have a very good spell in Europe after he left) , did similarly disappointing with Chelsea and got knocked out off the conference league even with spurs ( his only European achievement being so far a el final).
Cl is a knockout tournament and the reality is those are very dependent on luck no matter how goodbyou are that's why I think league Performance is a much better barometer to gauge a managers success but there are definitely attributes mitigating it's unpredictably and others worsening it ( Fergie for example i always thought was too naive or maybe idealist in the way he set us up for Europe despite his great record , same with pep and his wired tinkering)
In regards to conte I feel his set up is particularly outdated in Europe and his teams usually fail to impact the midfield which i don't think would be much better in psg considering your unbalanced midfield, his insistence on playing 352 doesn't help much either as i find his teams to be too rigid at times and lacking creativity, i also remember him taking too long to make substitutions mid game though he might have changed on that front.
In the end ucl is the big players occasion and the only one capable of doing that in your team is mbappe ( Messi seems to not give a damn) so unless you keep him and build a balanced midfield for next season I won't rate your chances that much.
Conte is a great manager to build a side guard for success, not so much for cracking it in Europe.
