Zapping Eleven Mondial TOP 10: The most beautiful jerseys in Ligue 1 2021/2022

On Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain logically lost two goals to one on the lawn of Manchester City in the Champions League. If the Parisians qualified for the next round, this setback has left its mark. Mentally first, since Mauricio Pochettino’s men were outclassed by those of Pep Guardiola. And physically, four PSG players having been forced to give up their place following an injury.

Ander Herrera is particularly concerned. Hit in a thigh against the Skyblues, he is already forfeited for the trip of the Ile-de-France formation to Saint-Étienne, scheduled for early Sunday afternoon, according to information from the Parisian. As for Marco Verratti, already absent against Bernardo Silva and his teammates, he was also declared unfit to play this match. Mauricio Pochettino will therefore have to tinker to align a midfield worthy of the name against the Greens rather in form in recent weeks.

As a result, the two young nuggets of Paris Saint-Germain, Edouard Michut and Xavi Simons, will train with the first team and could scratch playing time against ASSE.

Wijnaldum and Gueye uncertain

Idrissa Gueye, also replaced on the lawn of the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night, is very uncertain for the match against the Greens. As for Georginio Wijnaldum, it is just as much. The Dutchman was still in care this Friday.
