Jérôme Alonzo warns: “We will remember in ten days to find out if I was wrong.
And I hope I am wrong.
"The former PSG goalkeeper, like most other former club of the capital, imagines Bayern Munich big favorite of the Champions League quarter-final which is held against Paris this Wednesday evening (9 pm).
Alain Giresse, Jean-Marc Pilorget, Jérôme Rothen and Didier Domi also give us their opinion before this shock.
"The experience of the last final can help Paris"
Alain Giresse, former PSG coach (1998), Radio France consultant
“No, it's 50/50.
I could have answered
yes
straight away
, Bayern are favorites
, but over the whole of the two games, I don't know.
The same could be said of the double confrontation against FC Barcelona and Paris qualified by demonstrating that its collective could be there and help individuals to express themselves.
It's not a rematch, but the experience of the last final can help PSG on their knowledge of Bayern, of the style of play. "
"A mountain called Bayern Munich"
Jean-Marc Pilorget, former PSG defender (1975-1989)
“Yes, it seems obvious to me if we refer to the last results of the weekend (
Editor's note: defeat of PSG against Lille, victory of Munich against Leipzig
).
Now, this PSG is able to transcend itself when we do not expect it.
That's what I hope, anyway.
How not to be motivated before such a match?
PSG must put themselves in the shoes of an outsider capable of toppling a mountain named Bayern Munich, which is the favorite given his experience.
But statistics are one thing.
Being present on D-Day is something else.
"
"Munich has more reliable players"
Jérôme Alonzo, former PSG goalkeeper (2001-2008), consultant La Chaîne L'Équipe
“Yes, because of Verratti's absence.
There are fewer variables on the Bayern side, despite the absence of Lewandowski.
It is a machine which runs well, which wins, which knew how to manage its weak times… If we compare that to the PSG which, when it is not complete, tends to liquefy except with very rare exceptions … It will be a real feat to beat Bayern.
Our individualities must take responsibility.
Navas and Marquinhos do it every time.
Less players in the light.
Di Maria is missing and with Mbappé and Neymar, we just can't predict.
Bayern have more reliable players.
"
"Bayern knows how to score, even without Lewandowski"
Didier Domi, ex-left side of PSG (1991-1998, 2001-2004), consultant beIN Sports Mena
“Yes, even without Lewandowski they are better than us.
It is a team that recovers the ball better, a very important factor in the Champions League.
It is complete individually and collectively.
Above all, she knows when to delay, when to accelerate, to unbalance the opponent, to score even without Lewandowski.
It is a team that is always focused, which knows how to manage events while being relaxed.
PSG can switch to Champions League mode, especially after a bad result like against Lille.
It's already happened this season.
"
"PSG will upset the Germans"
Jérôme Rothen, former PSG midfielder (2004-2010), RMC Sport consultant
“Yes, I give Bayern a slight advantage for their experience.
But on the ground, PSG will upset the Germans.
Today, the goal of PSG is to win the Champions League, and when you look at the quality of the squad you see that there are great players in both teams.
My only downside concerns the collective.
Will the Parisians be up to what Bayern releases?
Munich shows great mental strength.
In the first match in Barcelona, the Parisians were also incredible and nobody expected them at this level.
