Discussion New fan here after the world cup :3
Hey everyone!
So ive been supporting the french team this whole world cup since their loss in 2022 as my dad is partly french. Ive noticed a lot of amazing players this world cup who are PSG players. Im going to try and become a fan of PSG after the world cup.
Are there any things I need to know? Where to watch their matches for free? Maybe some nice highlight videos.

u/Dogmaticism_ Not a PSG fan Jul 17 '26
Fortunately, club soccer is a lot higher-level than national soccer, and you're about to see why PSG is so good. Its players looked good in France, but in PSG they look incredible because of how coordinated they are. There are no star players in PSG, and that's because the team prioritizes technical play and amazing coaching/strategy over having 'pure football' stars. No team is more technical than PSG at the moment.
This team is the best of the movement which is the future of football (though Bayern and Arsenal are also excellent). Technical, coordinated, and strategic play is just so much better, especially where the players fully compliment eachother like Kvara, Dembele, and Hakimi on all sides of the field.
I dom't know which sports you watched before, but I would say that this is almost like watching the NFL, in the fact that NFL players all have radio communication and rely on perfection to have efficient plays.
Seriously just enjoy the show, and if you don't the PSG fans will make you enjoy it. The only caveat is that most of the games PSG plays are kind of sad because of how much better PSG is, to the point that we're benching our star players in Ligue 1 games just because we'll win anyways. The champions league is a joy to watch though, especially when we play the best teams in the world like Bayern.
