They spent a lot of money to try to win this competition and they gave us a night of it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u201cIt could have been more, especially in the first half, although I do think that we gave a better account of ourselves in the second. Now it is on to Anderlecht in a fortnight and going away from home is never easy. We have to learn quickly from some of the mistakes that we made against PSG and try to take that into the next game over in Brussels.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u201cPSG are right up there as one of the best teams I have ever played against, but so they should be with the amount of money that they have spent. They have great players and a couple of technical geniuses as well. They could go a long, long way. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIt is too early to tip them to win the Champions League this season but it\u2019s fair to say that they gave us a right good hiding, that\u2019s for sure. It is up to us to try and come back from that and take what we can from it. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe bar is going to get raised as high as possible, but what we want to do is go out and compete. We didn\u2019t do that for big chunks of the game. If we can take anything positive, it is the way we tried to lift ourselves in the first half an hour of the second half and that is what we need to draw on as we look to collect ourselves before Anderlecht<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>. \u201cLast season we had a heavy loss in the Nou Camp. We got over that and we have to find some of the form that we showed in the competition after that.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u201cWe can be more composed, we can do more with the ball and we can create chances.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> But it doesn\u2019t damage our confidence.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well, its damaged mine.<\/p>\n<p>French sports paper L&#8217;Equipe rated the players.<\/p>\n<p>you might want to look away now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/DJlbSjgXkAEgrDE.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s an idea for the next team talk.<\/p>\n<p>Ask each of the players why think they got the rating they got.<\/p>\n<p>Then ask them not to do it again.<\/p>\n<p>Against Paris St Germain the team looked like they believed all the hype about the French club, and when coupled with the dross written about our players by our own media, we looked beaten as soon as they got the ball.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, they are a great side, and arguably the best side we will play this season, but there is no excuse for allowing them to turn it into an exhibition match.<\/p>\n<p>We saw that film last year in the Nou Camp, and it should not have been allowed to happen again.<\/p>\n<p>For that, Brown and rodgers must share the responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, they have money, and they have spent it on some of the best players in the world, but they still fall over when you kick them, and if they haven&#8217;t got the ball they can&#8217;t score. Easier said than done, but there&#8217;s no harm in trying.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst the visit of Ross County may not seem like one of the most important games we&#8217;ll ever play, it is of paramount importance the players lift themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise it could be an uncomfortable month.<\/p>\n<p>You see, the dark side have been quietly plotting our downfall&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"content clearfix\">\n<div class=\"permalink-header\">\n<p><a class=\"account-group js-account-group js-action-profile js-user-profile-link js-nav\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/schiedamseschot\" data-user-id=\"228922366\"><span class=\"FullNameGroup\"><strong class=\"fullname show-popup-with-id \" data-aria-label-part=\"\">scott mccauslin<\/strong>\u200f<span class=\"UserNameBreak\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"username u-dir\" dir=\"ltr\" data-aria-label-part=\"\">@<b>schiedamseschot<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"follow-bar\">\n<div class=\"user-actions btn-group not-following not-muting \" data-user-id=\"228922366\" data-screen-name=\"schiedamseschot\" data-name=\"scott mccauslin\" data-protected=\"false\"><span class=\"user-actions-follow-button js-follow-btn follow-button\"><button class=\" EdgeButton EdgeButton--secondary EdgeButton--medium button-text follow-text\" type=\"button\">Follow<\/button><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ProfileTweet-action ProfileTweet-action--more js-more-ProfileTweet-actions\">\n<div class=\"dropdown\">\n<div class=\"IconContainer js-tooltip\" title=\"More\"><span class=\"u-hiddenVisually\">More<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"js-tweet-text-container\">\n<p class=\"TweetTextSize TweetTextSize--jumbo js-tweet-text tweet-text\" lang=\"en\" data-aria-label-part=\"0\"><em>Really hope Pedro was watching the PSG tactics last night..
