I am not sure how their boss will have better sport development strategies for PSG in coming years. If they can change themselves by lesson from 10 failed years in Champions League, they will win it in future but I am very doubtful that it will happen soon.
I didn't think, PSG lost even 0-2 at home. Indeed, Rennes are not a bad team, they have good quality. PSG itself may not be able to forget the defeat to Munich. PSG had many chances but they failed to score. Even Messi didn't move, he wasn't involved in the process of creating chances. I don't know how their future achievements will be. But business-wise I think PSG have made a profit. The attack line which is still problematic makes PSG's condition not so good in this match. They got a lot of chances, they also excelled in possession, it's just that the final finishing was really bad for them. On the other hand conditions are good for Rennes in taking advantage of the momentum. the back balls that were given were very good and this troubled PSG which confused them until the end of the match. This was very unexpected indeed but in the end they had to concede Rennes. |

I agree with you, Romelu Lukaku is not an ideal player for Real Madrid he did not record a good appearance in the last 2 seasons even including the burden of the club
I personally think Lukaku is still under Benzema based on quality so it is not appropriate as a substitute for Benzema, there are still many other players who are more appropriate like Mohammed Kudus, this player is rumored to be the target of Manchester United and reportedly Real Madrid is also interested in contracting him. Usually if the choice between Manchester United and Madrid, players will prefer go to Madrid.
Yep, in the end, if indeed this is forced, it's not impossible, he will also be like Hazard, who really has a big salary but is not used at the club, especially as we know with Madrid's condition, if indeed he can't perform well at the beginning, then he will finish his career there. With the financial situation and the big name from Madrid I think they can get someone better than Lukaku. |

If the news going round about Firmino's departure are mere rumours then I wonder what is to be believed from the internet this days.
Rumors about Firmino have always been circulating even since last season which was linked to several clubs from Turkey and other leagues who are always looking for profits by coveting good conditions in a league that is not very well known for players of his age. But indeed the final decision is clearly unpredictable and he even extended the contract and I wouldn't be too surprised later if there were the same conditions. |

I assumed for sure that PSG will win this match today. And I bet for PSG in this match. But I never imagined that PSG would lose to Rennes like this. My question is why do people bet for PSG? Why do people think PSG is so strong? Despite having so many stars, they did not think PSG is a strong team in today's match. Actually, I would not have said it like this, but I was forced to say it. Every time I have bet for PSG I have done PSG very poorly. I hope to never bet for PSG again.
The conditions are clear with the squad they have the hope of winning is a real one but in this game it's another proof that it doesn't really matter with individual players. There is actually nothing wrong with PSG's condition, it's just that they are having a lot of trouble creating momentum and converting opportunities into goals, especially in this match we also have to give appreciation to Mandanda, who really performed very well under the Rennes rule. |

Torino 0 - 4 Napoli  torino failed to score at least 1 goal, honestly it was a humiliation for torino who was already recovering before this game, while with this victory napoli increases the advantage over other teams, they are close to becoming champions Judging from the conditions it is indeed very difficult for Torino even though to force 1 goal there. Napoli's dominance is actually not too strong and Torino can compensate both in terms of ball possession and opportunities. It's just that Torino's attack line is still lacking in terms of finishing. 12 opportunities and only 2 on target clearly still proves that they are still not ready to face a club like Napoli. |

I'm afraid it wasn't a good performance by Milan not only in offense but also in defense. They just couldn't hold off Udinese attackers good enough and Udinese had a really solid day at the same time. They were very successful at benefiting from their shots on target. Milan could have answered in the same way at least. But I don't see the same productivity in scoring goals recently.
This inconsistent season can cost them their Champions League ticket as well if they don't pull themselves together in the league.
This is clearly getting worse. The 3 matches they went through with 2 losses and 1 draw made their condition even worse in the standings. Their defense was so chaotic in this match that it even seemed like the celebration when Zlatan scored didn't mean anything when Udinese came back ahead 1 minute later. In terms of possession they were very good but that was the problem when they stole the ball and Udinese counter-attacked it backfired on them. |

Even though Lyon and Nantes are currently only struggling in the middle of the standings, but at least Lyon still has a better record and that way Lyon can still win this home match. But yes, I think Lyon and Nantes have good abilities regarding aggressiveness in scoring goals, so even though Lyon is the favorite to win, but Nantes will certainly provide a difficult resistance by scoring goals in this match.
But yes, with considerations like that too, I think betting for both teams to score and or over, might be a good option too. So yes, even though this is not a match in the title race, but I am sure that this match will still be interesting because both of them are still very ambitious to get points.
Lyon vs NantesIt is currently a half-time break. The score on the break is one- one. There is a huge chance of a draw in this match. I personally think Lyon should be able to win this match. I believe they at least have a better chance. But watching the progress of this match so far, I believe it is not going to be easy. In this match, Lyon again failed to bring full points and they only managed to get 1 point. But I see something else here, Lacazette has always been a player that makes the difference. Having previously managed to score a brace against Lille now he also saved Lyon from losing again despite only one point being earned in this game. |

There are reports that Mohammed Salah may leave Liverpool at the end of the season ( https://twitter.com/Santi_J_FM/status/1637092851434618880), but I did not find these rumors realistic at all. He is not responsible for the problems at Liverpool and after a few signings Liverpool could again become one of the strongest teams in the title race next season. There is nothing that will require Mohamed Salah to leave Liverpool. Of course, such a transfer is not impossible, but at the same time, these rumors are not realistic at all. But looking at the statement from Salah's agent, I also think this is clearly an impossibility because indeed he said that Salah would still not leave Anfield but of course the chance might still exist at this time, especially with Liverpool's condition, even though it has improved but cannot be said to be returning to their previous performance. It will be as big news as Mane when he leaves Anfield. |

I don't know who is the favorite in Bayern Munich against City. I think it comes down to the form of Haaland's day, that is a player who will decide this game or not. Man City has Haaland, Bayern don't have a player of that caliber I think. But they are both very strong teams, as a team collectively but also individually. The first game is in the week of April 10, so in just over 3 weeks we will see the first game. I'm looking forward to this match. For Real Madrid, this seems like a golden opportunity to advance to the semi-finals. Chelsea is an ideal opponent on paper, I think for a CL quarterfinal, but Chelsea may also think that of Real Madrid.
This is clearly something that is difficult to predict because indeed the two teams currently deserve to be in the final even more difficult than the previous PSG and Bayern possibilities. But of course this will be interesting because if you look at the previous conditions Madrid also passed the same club as Bayern now and of course if Bayern wins in this game when talking about matchology last season their chance of the final will be there. |

This seems to be the case, however I would guess that Milan if forced to do it could choose to go for the Champions League and ignore their local league while Napoli cannot afford to do this, this could give a small edge to Milan as their players not only will be more focused on this tournament but they could even enjoy more rest as well and be on a better physical shape than the players of Napoli.
I actually think the opposite. At the moment Napoli are in very comfortable conditions in their domestic league with an advantage of 18 points obviously this is something comfortable and can ignore Serie A for a while because indeed this will not be a problem either for them if they do that. it's just that this will not be able to do Milan. Their position in the top 4 of Serie A is still very threatened so they are also in a difficult choice here. |

Be it Manchester United or Real Madrid, it is clear that with his current age, Bellingham has the opportunity to have a great future regardless of which league he will decide to move to.
He will again meet Erling Haaland (his former team mate) if he decide to move to the Premier League with Manchester United even though they will be rivals. Meanwhile, if he choose to move to Real Madrid, he maybe have a slightly tougher task because Real Madrid is a big team that plays in various competitions.
With the main offer of 110 million from Madrid, it is clear that this will be the initial benchmark and the war steps are clearly felt for Manchester United because of course they have to try to pass that price if they really want to compete for this player and even if Dortmund want to let go. But with their conditions I think rather than losing money like Haaland's case to Manchester City which can be said to be cheaper I think letting go now can be profitable for them amidst the conditions of an almost expiring contract. |

Lyon vs Nantes is going to start tomorrow in the French Soccer League. Thousands of fans are waiting to see which of these two teams will win tomorrow. But I think the better performance of the two teams will have more hope of winning. There will be. Both teams have good quality players. Nantes team has lost some matches due to the poor performance of Nantes team's goalkeeper. But I hope to play very well in this match and win the match.
After the incredible comeback from Lyon last week they are a bit more motivated now it seems. The conditions are quite good, they played at home and now face a club that is actually under them. I think victory should be a set price here but they have to be wary of their defense which is still quite bad here. |

Your words come true now  Arsenal failed to do their job in the Europa League after being eliminated via a penalty shootout. To be honest this has been a very exciting game because both teams are trying very hard in this game but of course there are winners and losers and in this case Arsenal have to be willing to drop out of the competition and now the focus will be on the Premier League after this. Finally Arsenal is out from the league,with a PK. I see sporting winning as a luck because both side played very well and they are equal to each other in their performance. PK is a game of luck which sporting became lucky this night to kick the gunners out of the league and they have secured a ticket to the next round. Arsenal should go and focus more on EPL,since that is the league that they can win this season if they don't relent in their performance because they have a rival. I think this might be an opportunity for Man united to get to the finals,since they are stronger and some of the qualified clubs. The focus is clear now on Arsenal because they have lost their chance in the Europa League but back to the initial topic of the Europa League actually I see now for the final draw I think this is not balanced because looking at the current conditions by looking at the pot this is a little lame to the right and left especially looking from the condition of the left team everything is almost the favorite club in this competition. |

Over time for Arsenal, it will be if they will go out.
Paradoxically for them is better to be out so they can focus 100% on the Premier League since the money prize and advertisement is much bigger.

This season PSG must win the Ligue 1 title, there is no other reason and they have a better chance of doing it than any other team. Their failure in the Champions League is a bad thing, but when I evaluate the depth of the squad then they really are not fully prepared for the title.
I don't know what psg have to do to win the champions league, they even have Messi, the world cup winner in their team, but they cannot even go past the round of 16, they signed their new manager at the beginning of this season, and many fans were saying he does not have any experience, i think those fans are correct and the club may sack him at the end of the season. I feel they should try and sign mourinho, he will be a good coach for psg. Psg are surely going to win the Ligue 1, they will conquer the French league for a long time, what they wanted to win this season was the champions league, but they have to wait until next season and try again. Sometimes this is not just about having superstar players and a rich owner, even if you have a rich team and you buy the most important players in the world you will still need a good manager and that's what PSG needs to have, if you have superstar players you need a superstar coach to manage the player otherwise you will fail, and that's the reason of why PSG could win the match in the champions league in this season. Agree with what you say because the role of the coach also holds quite a lot of control here and that will not be obtained from Galtier because he can be said to be mediocre as a coach. Now, Ligue 1 is definitely obtained and that's all they can get which of course Naser Al-Khaelafi will not be too happy about that because their great players and of course "expensive" can only bring one trophy every season. |

Julián Àlarez is happy with manchester city, he have extended his contract till June 2028 with Manchester city with full increase in his salary after a wonderful performance in the Water 2022 world cup. Pep Guardiola already include the young lad in his squad and he will definitely served as key player in the team, whereas there are quality players but he will served as backup player.
now the previous rumors regarding Barcelona and Madrid being interested in Julián Alvarez had to be heartbroken. because it was played quite rarely, many fans thought there would be no contract extension between Julián Alvarez and Man City. but the latest news is that both of them agreed to extend their second contract which is quite long. hopefully, he has enough opportunities to play in the squad. it would be good for him rather than too much to sit on the bench. Hope for Julian Alvarez is now lost and indeed Manchester City really moved fast in securing this player. Even though he rarely gets minutes played, Pep is still aware that this player is still very useful, especially when Haaland cannot play, so they immediately made a deal and did not let other clubs approach this potential young player. |

Napoli have made it to the quarter finals and I'm wondering what team they will have a matchup against. I would really like to see Napoli facing one of the biggest title contenders left because Napoli's performance in such a matchup would give us a better idea about them in the Champions League. Actually I know they faced Liverpool in the group stage. One of those matches were a pure destruction by Napoli. I don't want Napoli to get Real Madrid for the quarter-final draw this season. I'm not afraid and actually I have no reason to be afraid because I know which team I support. Whoever Real Madrid will play against this season is a challenge, even if it's Benfica. Tomorrow is draw day for the quarter-finals, I'm really curious. I agree with that, Napoli's condition is still very good and it would be a shame if they met Madrid because even though their current performance is still good, facing Madrid will obviously be very dangerous, of course. It would be great if they faced another team first even if it would be difficult but it would be slightly better than meeting Madrid. |

The round of 16 has finished, now we are looking forward to the next round in the top 8 of the qualifiers.
Liverpool still can't beat Real Madrid and we know it's a difficult opponent and they have to go down and be eliminated in the last 16, now only two representatives from the Premier League.
It can be said that Napoli is quite perfect because it won home/away, this team is the strongest candidate this season. We see that Napoli is very ambitious for all the competitions it runs.
In the next round we will find out that among all those who qualify they will meet another big team.
For Liverpool. The last 4 matches against Real Madrid and 4 defeats for them. Looks like Madrid has always been a real problem for them in this competition: D For Napoli there is no doubt for them here because their condition is very favorite and their opponents cannot do much with the dominance given by Napoli during the match in legs 1 and 2 days. |

Let's see, I still think there are many different possibilities, including such exotic ones as City being sent to the Championship for financial fraud. I don't think Haaland will be interested there.
As for the big ego, I agree, Haaland does not look the same as Ibrahimovic in this sense, but this has both pluses and minuses. He fits into the team better, but he has weaker leadership qualities that are required at critical moments.
Manchester City, if proven guilty, the exodus of the players who came out would be very much, and haaland who certainly did not want his career to decline slightly by playing in the lower division. I think that in the end the Manchester City case is proven then the chance to move is clearly big but for now which is still not entirely true then this is still a little difficult. |

Marseille don't play like they really want to keep the second position in the standings. We can give the last match as an example for this.
They had a match home against Strasbourg. It was a really interesting match first of all. Balerdi's red card was just an unbelievable one. He made a really amateurish mistake there and caused his team to be in a bigger trouble. But still Marseille got 2-0 ahead with 10 players. In the last minutes I was feeling pretty confident about their win but Aholou changed the fate of the match suddenly. He scored 2 goals in 2 minutes and suddenly became the savior of his team. He was even nearly making a hat-trick if it weren't for that nice save.
I don't think so, the condition is still quite better than the defeat against PSG and at least 1 point after they play with 10 people. Although the condition is a little difficult after now the lens start to catch up with but in this case I still feel Marseille will still be able to maintain her position in runner up until the end of the season. |
