It is a Paris Saint-Germain 11 but not, it is safe to say, the 11 Luis Enrique will name to face Arsenal. Lucas Chevalier is the goalkeeper. The defenders are Willian Pacho, Ilia Zabarnyi, Beraldo and Lucas Hernandez. In midfield, Vitinha is joined by Warren Zaire-Emery and Senny Mayulu. In the forward line, the incomparable Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is accompanied by Bradley Barcola and Lee Kang-in.
It is a fair bet Mikel Arteta would be pleasantly surprised to encounter a team without the Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele, the two-goal star of last year’s Champions League final, Desire Doue, the classy passer Joao Neves, the flying full-backs Nuno Mendes and Achraf Hakimi or the captain Marquinhos. He won’t, though, unless injury rules Hakimi out.
