PSG Player Ratings vs. Arsenal as Donnarumma and Kvaratskhelia shine again

PSG are through to the 2024/25 Champions League Final after defeating Arsenal 2-1 at the Parc des Princes in the second leg of the semifinals, winning on a total 3-1 aggregate. Here are the player ratings for every PSG starter vs. Arsenal as they prepare for Inter Milan next. GK Gianluigi Donnarumma, 10 Literally a perfect performance in goal from Gianluigi Donnarumma. It doesn't get any better than this. The Italian international made several jaw-dropping stops, with the best being an early save against Martin Odegaard than nearly injured him. LB Nuno Mendes, 4.0 Incredibly error-prone and unconvincing one-on-one against Bukayo Saka. Had Saka been quicker and more decisive, Mendes would have been exposed worse than he was. The Portuguese international constantly needed one or tw...

2024/25 Champions League Predictions for the Quarterfinals

On Tuesday, the quarterfinals of the 2024/25 Champions League season will begin, and while defending champions Real Madrid are always the favorites until proven otherwise, they have been significantly outplayed by Barcelona in their own league and barely survived the Round of 16 against crosstown rivals Atletico Madrid.

The best possible PSG starting lineup after Khvicha Kvaratskhelia transfer

PSG sent struggling striker Randal Kolo Muani on loan to Juventus, and they, in a sense, replaced him by signing left winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli. A deal between Paris and Naples for the Georgian sensation is set to be completed soon, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that the forward is in the French capital for a medical ahead of an official transfer announcement. Before the deal becomes official and we learn about details like contract length, transfer fee, add-ons, bonuses, and salary, let's take a closer look at how the man they call Kvaradona will fit the PSG starting lineup. Defense: GK Gianluigi Donnarumma, LB Nuno Mendes, CB Willian Pacho, CB Marquinhos, RB Achraf Hakimi There isn't really much to say about the PSG defense, other than the fact that this back fou...

PSG offering Jhon Duran staggering salary increase to tempt striker’s transfer from Aston Villa

Aston Villa star striker Jhon Duran looks like he can be the next big thing in the Premier League, as he has broken out this season as Ollie Watkins's more clinical backup with 7 goals in just around 600 minutes of league action. Duran isn't the full-time starter at Villa Park, but the 21-year-old's time will surely come, as the Villains have always backed Duran fully, even after so many teams came forward with lucrative transfer offers last summer.

But now, an entirely different bracket of teams to West Ham are after the Colombian standout, which will place more pressure on Villa's resolve to keep their future superstar. PSG are most prominently i...
