How on earth did he manage that move anyway? He was garbage for Stoke, now he's starting games for PSG. :confused:
I know Neymar is injured but aye how the fuck did he even end up at PSG given his shit goals return? His last 2 seasons return at Stoke and FC Schalke 04 was a goal every 550 mins on the pitch (8 goals in 62 appearances). Could his agent have had something on someone high up at PSG? :lol: :lol:

Though this is the reason why

There's a very simple reason PSG have brought in Maxim Choupo-Moting | SportsJOE.ie

When it was announced that PSG had signed Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, there was shock.

Fresh off the back of relegation from the Premier League with Stoke City, Maxim Choupo-Moting had failed to make a single appearance throughout the Championship season so far.

So what, exactly, is one of the world's wealthiest football clubs, with the option of signing literally any player on earth, doing signing a man who has only scored more than 10 goals for two sides in an 11-year career? Well, it seems that it's very simple. New PSG manager Thomas Tuchel took over from now-Arsenal boss Unai Emery in the summer after taking a sabbatical in the aftermath of his departure from Borussia Dortmund. Prior to working at the Westfalenstadion, Tuchel was the manager of another Bundesliga side, Mainz 05, from 2009 to 2014. During his time at Mainz, Tuchel signed a young Cameroonian forward called Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, who excelled under him and scored 20 goals in 74 games. Maxim Choupo-Moting would impress so much at Mainz that he would end up earning a move to Schalke 04, where he made 82 appearances before moving to Stoke City last season.

But now it has come full circle, and with Tuchel in the position to bring in a former player to be a useful squad option he has done so with the 29-year-old.

Will it work out? Only time will tell.
 
Anyone seen his miss for PSG in the first half.

He was on the goal line and hit the post. Missed from zero yards out. I couldn't believe what he was trying to do.

Other PSG player lifts the ball over the keeper and it's heading in and Choupo-Moting looks to tap it in but somehow stops it on the line it hits the post and his momentum takes him into the goal and the ball is cleared by the defender.

Sorry mate

Read the title and thought we were linked
 
He thought he was still playing for Stoke They've had around 8 0-0 draws this season and Berahino has scored a massive 3 times since signing for £12 million 2.5 years ago. It makes Altidore's signing seem like a good deal :lol:
