He said, “I think they [Barcelona] will get [a win] in Spain [in the second leg and knock PSG out of the Champions League].
“I find it difficult to get past the fact that it’s really all about Mbappe. He is good, [only] if he is on his game. The problem is PSG historically in this competition have just bottled it.
“I can’t get past the fact that if Mbappe doesn’t turn up, this team has got no chance. Barcelona are way better now than they’ve been all season. I don’t see PSG getting through.”
