From our Madrid-based special correspondent.It's an earthquake whose tremors will reverberate in Paris for weeks, if not months. By focusing solely on the Champions League, PSG runs the risk of squandering its entire endeavor if it is eliminated early. The team's demise at the Bernabeu will have ramifications throughout the organization. From the lawn to the stands, passing past the sidelines, of course. Because Mauricio Pochettino will be the first to feel the tremors.

Pochettino has secured his future.
If there was any remaining doubt about Mauricio Pochettino's future, it was dispelled by PSG's calamitous evening in Spain on Wednesday. At a press conference on Tuesday, the Argentinian coach was irritated by inquiries from the French press about the implications of a possible elimination and expressed remorse that his opponent, Real Madrid, was carried by the excitement of his fans. Today, he must confront the long-term consequences of his team's black hole, as well as the conclusion of his trip, which is expected to take place in May.
Pochettino, who is already tired of working in an environment he has never truly mastered – but how can he when he is forced to work with players who don't care about the team?Consequently, Pochettino's contract will most likely expire in June 2023. When it was QSI who put it on the sporting director, his connection with Leonardo never helped the club. His lack of vision, inability to make decisions (particularly as a goalkeeper), and inability to create a group identity would all logically condemn him.
What does he have to hold to? He who failed to win the championship last year, putting an end to any hopes of a national double starting in February 2021. Pochettino is to blame for never being able to put this PSG team together. He, like so many others before him, was a victim of circumstance. Like Emery and Tuchel, he has extenuating circumstances in a club that does nothing to put his coach in the best possible position to succeed.Even if Paris is still an uncoachable club, they do not carry much weight today.
Mbappé, the unfavorable outcome...
He was the only one capable of doing it, and he may be the only star to leave PSG this summer. This is the agonizing paradox of a six-month-old Kylian Mbappé mastering his destiny. It was difficult to see how Paris could have kept him until this round of 16. The outcome is becoming less and less in doubt following the collective resignation on Wednesday and Real Madrid's qualification. How can a player with such lofty ambitions continue at a club that has abandoned him at the most inopportune of times? He intended to leave for Real last summer, and three months before his contract expires, we see no reason for him to change his mind. The shock will be devastating for a PSG that has never been so reliant on a single player. Even when the capital was ruled by Zlatan Ibrahiomovic. The world champion's departure will compel his club to reconsider everything. Is it, however, PSG's only desire?
Should we construct our team around Messi and Neymar?
Lionel Messi had arrived in Paris with the goal of taking PSG to the next level and winning the Champions League. The mission was a failure. Even if he is not solely to blame for the disaster, the Argentinian is one of the most repulsive emblems. Recruited for big evenings, he was never decisive in 180 minutes versus Real, with the exception of missing a penalty, which is quite costly when it comes to the books. And it won't be made up by his lackluster performance in Ligue 1. His first year has been a flop. Should we keep him when his contract is up in a year and his regression is obvious?
Neymar, like Messi, has lost his charm. He was less decisive in one-on-one situations and less incisive in his objectives, but he still delivered caviar to Mbappé and reminded him that PSG's bond with the Bondy bomb remained one of their strong qualities. But, with Mbappé on the verge of leaving, would Paris continue to build around the 30-year-old Brazilian until 2025? Even if Ney's frequent ailments appear to have diminished his capacity of irritation today, PSG is likely to have no choice. His showy Final 8 appears to be a long way off.

Leonardo will not be able to avoid his duties.
In charge of sports policy Even if it is often difficult to break free from Doha's interventionism, Leonardo is clearly one of the perpetrators of the disaster. He replied angrily, saying, "We must accept our mistakes, our challenges, and our failure to manage difficult circumstances." Last summer's pharaonic transfer window yielded no results. From Donnarumma to Messi, who was feverish at the worst possible time. What about Sergio Ramos, the game's legend, who has yet to confirm whether or not he will be able to play two more games before calling it a day? And Georginio Wijnaldum, who hasn't looked the same since arriving in Paris?
It is also due of the Brazilian sports director that Paris is uneven, that no collective embraces this cluster of superstars. Nothing will change unless QSI is severely questioned. However, the PSG owner enjoys the gleaming and flashy, and it's too bad if it interferes with his Champions League ambitions. He must, however, change software or he would be constantly confronted with the same sites.
