The difference between PSG and City is that there was a big, active and passionate fanbase at PSG long before the Qataris took over. They got swallowed up by the glory hunters during the superstars era but were still there at the core and now that the superstars and their tagalongs have moved on they are back at the forefront along with fans who became fans of the actual club.

Not saying that City doesn't have a historical fanbase but it just seems way more hollow than PSG's.

City were averaging 30k attendances when they were in the third tier, and were getting around 40k in the years before the takeover.

Liverpool got lucky that they weren't murdered in the first leg.




I didn't watch tonight; but were PSG that good or was it a bit of both and that IM also choked.....?

They were, but PSG caught Liverpool at the right time in the season.

As for last night, the truth was somewhere in the middle. Inter definitely shat the bed and were horrific defensively. But the French took full advantage and more.

Anyone else find it interesting that NOBODY is pointing out that PSG finished 15th in the Champions league group stage?

When I'm still hearing a ton of rival fans claiming that because we finished 17th in the league our Europa doesn't count or is somehow diminished.

Of course I'm not claiming we are all better than PSG or anything I'm just curious why certain narratives apply but only to Spurs.

I also don't believe the hype surrounding this PSG team, I think they can be got at. They lost 5 games in the competition out of 17 and were wobbling against Villa and could easily have been elimihnated.
I think it was a weak competition. Inter were absolutely awful
