Paris Saint-Germain is struggling to convert scoring chances, managing just two goals in their three UEFA Champions League matches. This raises questions about whether it’s time to move on from the era of superstars.
Having a superstar can often be a game-changer, with their individual talent making a significant impact in tight matches. A moment of brilliance from such players can lead to a goal, whether through scoring or providing an assist.
