Bayern arrives in Paris for a ‘Battle of Systems’
Looking at it from both a footballing and financial perspective, it seems highly unlikely that the Uruguayan would be willing to make the move to Goodison Park.
On the other hand, you have PSG, who could be described as a member of European football’s nouveau riche, backed since 2011 by Qatar Sports Investments’ seemingly unlimited supply of funds.
“When I was in Spain, I watched the big clubs – Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, the Manchester clubs, Juventus – and I saw that every year they would buy the best players in the world”, said Emery.
Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery has revealed the latest on who will be taking penalties at Les Parisians, following Neymar and Edinson Cavani’s fallout. “It’s the result of five years of work”.
Bayern winger Arjen Robben has expressed doubts over PSG’s strategy of spending big, saying that splashing out does not score you goals. “We need all the players, when a player is missing it’s important to maintain the level and pace”, the Spaniard added, after his side mustered just one shot on target. “We’ve put in so much money and we haven’t achieved what we wanted.’ Sporting success can not be just created in the way they predict”.
“Today, we have more enemies, because they see that we have a serious team and that our transfer activity put us a step closer to being in the mix to win the Champions League”.

PSG went on to win the game 2-0, maintaining their 100% record in Ligue 1 through their first five games.
Neymar is set to return after a minor injury as Paris Saint-Germain aim to lay down a marker in Europe by getting the better of Bayern Munich in their heavyweight Champions League encounter on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila). Ancelotti is expected to entrust Joshua Kimmich with shouldering much of the burden here.
Neymar’s move was completed in acrimonious fashion, with Barca launching legal action against the 25-year-old over an alleged breach of contract and Neymar suing his former employers for refusing to grant a bonus payment stipulated in his old deal.
This match was then supposed to be the game that showed PSG were now at that standard after all that summer activity, that showed they could actually finally beat such sides and overtake them. Despite Cavani being the designated spot kick taker for PSG, Neymar asked to take the penalty this weekend against Lyon.
Coach Emery tried to play down the danger of another bust-up.
