Why don't PSG just go out and buy the two best fullbacks money can buy and actually give their attacking talent a chance when they play the best sides (not that Chelsea are!)?
They had one to be fair, but Aurier just pressed the self-destruct button on his PSG career. There's no way they could have played him tonight after what he did.
Always looked a little suspect defensively to me. Especially in set piece situations exactly like the one Chelsea scored from. But, you're right, he was one of the better right backs out there for sure. Maxwell is a poor defender without question though and David Luiz is David Luiz.
Great midfield, good attack, bang average defence. And they'll go out to the first top team they face again this season because of it. It's a shame because I like them, despite their cheating oil money, I'd like to see them break up the Barca/Bayern/Real monopoly. I think they handicap themselves by having Blanc as their manager too in all honesty. He's not in the class of Guardiola, Mourinho (pre-breakdown!) or even Wenger. Shouldn't be managing at this high a level in my opinion.
