Paris Saint-Germain is just above the French league’s relegation zone. As absurd as that seems the two-time defending Champions League winner has made such a poor start to its Ligue 1 campaign that it is just one point above 17th place in the 18-team league.

Paris Saint-Germain's slow start to the French season continues as they lose 2-1 at home to Monaco, remaining winless in Ligue 1 after three games.

Two points from three matches is their worst start since the 2007-08 season, when PSG came close to relegation.
