The Parisians lead Ligue 1 with 5 wins and one draw. Only Monaco held them back. Here’s how Clement did it (and how Allegri could do it)
First in the standings, with Marseille, but with 24 goals scored. Nobody does better in the major leagues. Of these, 17 are signed by those three in front who could cause Allegri some headaches. In fact, Mbappé and Neymar have already scored 7 goals each. Messi three, but game grinds like never since he arrived in Paris. In short, the new Galtier-led PSG seems to have found the right equation to shine, as everyone expected last season. At first glance, therefore, Allegri’s pre-tactics would have to be favored, which says that the match to be won is the one with Benfica. But the PSG can basically be beaten. A little bit because the Champions League is a competition in itself. A little because some ideas can arise from the two points that the Parisians are missing in the standings, due to the home draw with Monaco, the only team to have held up to the French champions with a profitable 1-1.
