what Newcastle did was inseparable from their big motivation to be able to finish in the top 4 and get a ticket to the UCL and with the inconsistency of Manchester United and Tottenham, they were able to take very good use of the Newcastle team to continue to maintain their position.

I think Newcastle are playing pretty good right now and they have a very big chance to finish in the top 4 of the final standings.
Manchester United are underperforming at the moment and Tottenham are also inconsistent so it will be very profitable for Newcastle.
If you look at the odds, it is true that Newcastle has the potential to finish in the top four of the Premier League standings this season, as well as Manchester United which has the chance to get in the top three of the Premier League standings if in the rest of the season it is able to improve its performance by continuing to get points in every game.

Because Manchester United and Newcastle now have the same number of points and will continue to compete for more positions until the end of this season. Meanwhile, Tottenham also have the potential to be overtaken by Brighton if they are still not consistent in the rest of the season, because Brighton is not far behind Tottenham in the current Premier League standings.
Newcastle's new high spending owners must be very much happy with the development in the squad right now. They've invested heavily in the club since their takeover and will be very impressed with the result so far.
Eddie Howe has really done a job with the team and judging by the team's performance this season, I don't think there's anyone that's gonna stop them from a top four finish. They are play Champions League football next season and I believe the club owners are gonna give Eddie Howe a blank check to sign his preferred players ahead of the challenge. Newcastle might just be the next Manchester City in English football

The performance of Real Madrid last night against Barcelona looks very strange to me but at the end of the game I read in papers where some of the players confirmed that they played as if they were playing finals and that was the instruction of their coach.
Real Madrid team and management know that they have not been very good this season as it is obvious from their La Liga games, they know that they have lost any chances of winning the La Liga, their best chances to win something is the champions league and the Copa del Rey. Every game is a preparation for the other game, and with this win, the confidence of the players and Benzena who scored a Hat trick will be up in readiness for their important champions league game and in their next game in the Copa del Rey.
Real Madrid over the years has shown that they're a club with strong winning mentality and on several occasions has they turned around matches that almost everyone thinks they've lost out and deliver incredible performances to end up as winners and such characteristics is very rare in modern day football.
Yesterday's match was different because they weren't trailing in the tie after winning the first leg by a goal to nil but because they were beaten in the league by the same Barcelona they met played against yesterday, they wanted to make a big statement of how big of club they are and they did that in clinical fashion. Karim Benzema is still having who has scored 6 goals in his last two matches also needed to tell opposing defenders that's he's very much a deadly striker despite his age

Wow! Another shocking case in Italy is about to begin eh ? Too bad I see my lovely club Lazio in this position and I do hope they won't get penalized as that would mean the end of the season for them and they had such a great one. Leaving this aside , Serie A is in control of who ? Because we can see clearly that the state itself barely gives any cents about their football and they are leaving everything to mafia or shady orgs that are destroying Serie A.

If this case goes even bigger that it currently is , I'm afraid that a lot of TV sponsorships will retain their contracts for last season and they should do it as no one wants to watch rigged transfers and shady games...

This case is still under investigation Lazio and Roma are the teams allegedly involved in this scandal if that proves then they will be in the same boat as Juventus
indeed, the Italian League is the league that most often gets problems like this it's kind of a tradition that will always be there from season to season
I think Atalanta will wait and take advantage of this scandal I mean their chances of moving up in the standings.
Atalanta will surely be the advantageous side if Roma and Lazio are finally found guilty of the scandal they're undergoing the investigation. They'll be very happy with with any news that'll implicate the two teams.
That being said, the Italian Football Federation must as a matter of urgent critically examine and cleanse the Italian Football from such kind irregularities going forward because among the top five leagues in Europe, Italian football has been the only league that has constantly been in the news for football scandals

Sometimes I feel Todd Boellhy doesn't look into past records before deciding on people to take over Chelsea's managerial affairs. I think he wants to pay more money on terminated contracts. I know vividly well that he's the significant brain behind Frank Lampard's new contract as chelsea supervisory coach.  Lampard may do well during these few periods but his success story may not last in the next season if peradventure his performance in this short period is convincing enough to give him a permanent contract. Chelsea as an elite club needs experienced coaches not the likes of Frank Lampard.

A temporary solution is better than none or some for which you then have to pay a lot of money (termination of the contract).
There are rumors that Nagelsmann will lead the team in the summer, and now he wants to rest until the end of the season (or just does not want to get under the Real Madrid ice rink). But there are also rumors that PSG also want to sign Nagelsmann. Will he, like Mbappe, negotiate for himself the best conditions from two rich clubs? Cunningly!
It's crystal clear that Chelsea needs a manager that can turn the fortunes of the club around, wether temporary or permanent but I don't think that Frank Lampard is the best available man for the job. Julian Nagelsmann would've been a better option or they would've gone for Zinedine Zidane or any other high profile Manager that's available but they went for Lampard that was easy to approach and negotiate with. Todd Boehly got it wrong by sacking Thomas Tuchel last year and he'll always regret that decision till when he get a better replacement

Newcastle won by a big margin, and it's no surprise considering how poorly West Ham played. Newcastle's team spirit and unity were truly impressive, and these are important factors contributing to their success. I wouldn't be surprised if this team ends up playing in the Champions League. They definitely have what it takes to be competitive at that level. Newcastle defense is so strong for opponents to penetrate, which helps them going far in the competition. So, I'm really excited to see what Newcastle can achieve this season. They're looking very serious these days, and it's going to be difficult for anyone to stop them.

Newcastle's defense is not particularly strong for a top team, they have conceded 12 goals in the last 10 matches, which is a lot. Also, out of the last 10 matches, they won only 5 matches, lost three more and drew twice, lacking stability, but these losses were from City, Manchester United and Liverpool, so perhaps this is quite natural. Newcastle have every chance to finish the season in the top 4, this is quite an attainable goal.
Newcastle is very smart in minimizing mistakes so they don't lose points and that's why until now they are able to be at the top of the standings and are still competing fiercely to be able to enter or finish in the top 4 of the standings.
the big win against West Ham was inseparable from the poor performance of the home team and this was used very well by Newcastle to be able to win with a convincing score.

In another match, Manchester United managed to break a series of bad results by being able to win the match against Brentford, even though they only narrowly won 1 goal, but that was enough, I think, for them to add points and get back to winning ways.
Eddie Howe is doing exceptionally well but  I will say new castle management did pretty well during the last transfer window. They were ver selective in the transfer window and a good percentage of the players are extremely productive.
Botman, Longstaff, and Trippier are the set of signings that have contributed tremendously to the current position Mewcastle is.unlike we know in the EPL, It will be nice to see them play in the UCL next season, if they succeed in the top 4 position

What a great performance by Real madrid. Beating Barcelona 4-0 was a big score and a big win for Real Madrid. Barcelona is a much stronger team than Real Madrid and Barcelona team has many good players so Barcelona always plays very well.  And Barcelona are in the number one position in the LaLiga league with the highest points difference which is 12 points more than Real Madrid. I thought and my prediction indicated that Barcelona would beat Real Madrid by one goal.  But a different picture was seen here.  Real Madrid beat Barcelona by 4-0.  It was really incredible
It is unbelievable win from Real Madrid. 4 - 0 is a very big win and it helps them to take a ticket to Coppa del Rey final match after losing in a first leg to Barcelona. This defeat again shows that Xavi actually does not have good capability to manage his team in Cup matches. In the last two seasons, from Europa League 2021 - 2022, Champions League 2022 - 2023 and play-off matches with Manchester United in Europe League this season to this shocked defeat in Coppa del Rey, Barcelona are weak in cup matches.

Benzema made another hattrick which is his second hattrick within a few days. What a world-class striker!

Vinicius scored too and Real Madrid attacking system has main of its power in those two players.

i suspected Real Madrid would win (read my previous comments about that)
never underestimate a great team like that, and from this lesson Barcelona can understand that they are not yet very mature as a team
perhaps he could win La Liga but certainly there is also a bit of Real Madrid tiredness which helped him
Lol, Barcelona isn't mature u said. Like in what way??
The said club is currently leading Spanish toughest league which the same real Madrid is also a contender.
You have mentioned that FCB dominance in La Liga is de to Teal Madrid's tiredness but what causes this tirednes if I may ask?? Madrid were in
Research shows that  when Barca won won,  real Madrid's players were on ink jury and that's the same thing that occurred in this second leg ( barca are also on injury>>> De long, Memphis Depay and Perdri).   I'm not Barca fan but I know they do better than Madrid in terms of H2H clashes.

To be honest, Leipzig really played very well and excelled in many areas. Leipzig's victory over Dortmund 2 - 0 certainly dealt a crushing blow to Dortmund. Additionally, in this match, Leipzig also carried out a barrage of attacks against Dortmund so it seemed that Dortmund was completely overwhelmed. Even though Dortmund was able to handle ball possession, they were unable to attack Leipzig properly. And finally, they lost.
The loss against bayern was just giving domino effect to the dortmund. The performance of dortmund is declining so hard right now. The performance of dortmund is really disappointing. It was only able to make one shot on target. The mentality of dortmund has already been destroyed since the match against chelsea. Dortmund must have been following bayern to go out from DFB pokal. I wonder why dortmund is performing so poorly against leipzig. We did know that if leipzig was also performing so badly in bundesliga.

Leipzig was always playing offensive and it very often gives pressure on the dortmund. That's very sad to see that dortmund must let DFB trophy gone.
    A club with good options will never suffer this. Dortmund keeps selling out their good players who would have stand in for others in injury times. Currently,  the absent of Duranvielle and Mateu  Bausau as affected the squad so badly,  and this is not supposed to be so.   One shouldn't surprised at Dortmund's poor performances in the last few matches. Because from the points stated above, I'm not expecting Dortmund to be consistency . They can only do well when they have a complete full team with their best players featured, but in a slide injury news, performances like this is expected of them.

BREAKING: Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal have sent out a bid of €400 million/year for the greatest player of all time, Lionel Messi.

Messi's priority right now is to stay in Europe. Barcelona are waiting on FFP issues before sending out a contract offer for Messi.




With Messi coming to the Arab League, this is very interesting, many are looking forward to them, Ronaldo vs Messi will compete again.


https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1643325640727310338?cxt=HHwWhMC9ndX9oc4tAAAA

This means he was offered twice as much as Ronaldo before.
It's really quite crazy for the Arab league right now, if this works then it's another burn of money for them but indeed in this case there are other advantages of course so indeed they won't regret offering that price. Now it remains to see whether PSG and Messi will budge at this price or not.
They have succeeded with Ronaldo and they know how beneficial Ronaldo's deal was,  that s the more reason they go for Lionel Messi. But to be truthful, these dudes are not in their era and such will attract little attention. Arab football bo is on the mission too develop and transform Arabic football and they want to do this by bringing in stars.  But the route they follow will only end them in a temporary achievement.  I think the best way they can work close to their ambition is bringing in more European your stars and giving them long term deals, other than paying extravagantly on aging stars who are already out of their football time.

To play today's match in Premier League, Man United vs Brentford, these two teams entered the field. Man United performed well in the beginning of the game, but Man United could not score any goals after the half time of the game. Brentford was behind by 1 goal in the whole game and 1 due to poor play in the first half of the game.  Brentford lost the match for goals. Man United team player M. Rashford scored 1 goal in 27 minutes to win Man United.
Brentford, flat for large parts of the first half, but they were much better in the second half of the game. I haven’t seen them play that poor before this season. I don’t know why the manager set up the team that way. Manchester wanted the win more than them so they got it. Now Manchester United are level on 53 points with third-placed Newcastle and 3 points ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham, who have played one more game than their rivals.


Before the game started, I thought that Brentford would dominate the midfield because of the formation they play. Brentford used a 3-5-2 formation and I guess this could be a tough challenge for Man United who has to play without Casemiro. But what happened on the field was the opposite, where Man United was more in control of the game (especially in the first half). Even though Sabitzer and McTominay are still far from optimal, but they can play as they should, and it makes their rhythm look good.
Sometimes Brentford were using 4-3-3 in the several matches but often too they will used 3-5-2 and in my opinion why Brentford coach using 3-5-2 against Manchester United it because they know the quality of Manchester United midfielders is above to them so Brentford has attempts not to allow the players from Manchester United to move more freely and besides that Brentford is the team who had typical to playing with counter attack style and according to their statistics during this season Brentford weren't good from ball possession

But at least Manchester United can take revenge from Brentford and finally they can able to win after poor results from their previous matches and the most important is Manchester United finally has occupy top 4 again
It's always unlucky for coaches when they keep changing their pattern because of what they expect from the opponent team. This same mistake Guardiolla did against Chelsea I'm the UCL final last season. This ended him in losing the match.
Brentford players are always wild and free with a 4 3 3 formation.  It was actually 5 3 2 formations which on the other way resulted in 3 5 2.  But The 3 5 2 formation favors midfield and it's not a bad idea,  but it works perfectly with a creative left/right back Who has the potential of playing also like a left winger and right winger respectively. Otherwise, the flank will become more vulnerable causing the midfielders too much work. That was the challenge Brentford faced against MU.

Bayern Munich vs Manchester city match seems to be the main point of focus amongst all UCL Quater final fixtures. Despite their already assured stand in the domestic league, the two coaches are still very earger to take a home the UCL title especially in Pep Guardiola case. Guardiolla didn't succeed in last season,  and I believe He would do all the needful in order not to miss this opportunity like he did in the previous ucl tournament. I will say nothing will stop Manchester City if Guardiola succeeds in playing out Bayern Munich.

Real Madrid really deserved the victory, because they didn't allowed Barcelona to score a single goal from the match to prove to people that the injuries some of their players had some months ago that affected some of their potential players not to performed well that gave Barcelona to defeated them 2-1 in the first leg. Real Madrid were able to used all their potential players to played the second leg to defeated Barcelona 4-0 which is a sign that Real Madrid may have something reasonable to achieve in this tournament. Barcelona performance was very poor in this second leg which their coach need to apply some skills that will improve their performance in their remaining matches.
It's quite true. That was a bad performance for FCB. Apart from any other fact, it will be a big blow for Real Madrid if they allow Barcelona to record another win against them this season d they eserves this winning more because  they haven't been happy after playing Barca for their past 3 clashes.  But I will say this winning is more possible for Madrid because Barcelona also went through the same injury challenge that they (Madrid)did in the first leg. With Frenkie Dejong, Usman Dembele, Pedri,  and Christensen all out,  one will not expect the best of FCB. Though I wasn't expecting Barca to be this poor.

If Leipzig could kick Dortmund, that would be epic!
-snip-
Leipzig 1 - 0 Dortmund after 35 minutes of the game in the last DFB-Pokal Quarter-final match. Needless to say that Dortmund aren't fully into the game and barely threatened Leipzig goalie.
If things continue like that Dortmund might be kicked for real from the Cup!
In the other game that finished earlier today, Stuttgart passed after defeating Nurnburg by 1 goal.
It looks like the first half will end with Leipzig's advantage.
What's wrong with Dortmund at the moment, they are having a lot of trouble creating chances even so far as I can see they haven't messed with Leipzig's defense and made any momentum.
Hopefully for the second half there will be some real changes because if it continues like this for those who are left behind then they will definitely be the ones who will be at a disadvantage.
   I'm more in love with RB Liepzig defensive line. Currently in the liepzig squad The present of Willi Orban is second to none. his pairing with Josco Gvadiol contributes to Liepzig triggering dominance in the defense.  I'm so surprised to see that Borrusia durtmund could not achieve a single on-target attempt against liepzigLiepzighout the first half.  Apart from their relentless attacking force, Leipzig had. Complete dominance in the first half even in possession of the ball.
5594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 06, 2023, 06:42:23 AM
The next matches are Lens against Strasbourg and Marseille against Lorient, I'm sure Lens can win those matches but I'm not sure how Marseille will win, he has to win if he doesn't want to be completely moved by Lens.
Previously, I was quite surprised by the position of the top team in the standings, especially Lens and Marseille, both of whom have the same number of points. This must be because Marseille was held to a draw by Montpellier in last week's game. For Lens, they took second place after they were quite choked up at the beginning of last February, they didn't get maximum results. In the next match, Lens will face an opponent that I think is quite easy, Strasbourg, so victory is likely to be closer to Lens. On the other hand, Marseille will face Lorient which in my opinion will be quite a troublesome opponent, if Marseille can get full points in this match then they will again compete with Lens.

At this moment Lens is the favorite to win because in fact, so far this season Lens is the best team for home matches. So, playing against Strasbourg which is in the bottom zone, of course Lens should be able to win in this match, because from the available odds it is clear that the chance for Strasbourg is indeed difficult to gain points in this match.

But, if I consider the head to head in their last three meetings, the reality is Lens can't beat Strasbourg at all. Because after all, even though Strasbourg is in the lower zone in the current Ligue 1 standings, but sometimes Strasbourg can surprise when playing against top teams. But yes, after all Lens still has a good chance to win, as a way to end the bad record when Lens played against Strasbourg.
Yo, Lens might be the faves to snatch the W against Strasbourg, but football's wild, right? Strasbourg could flip the script, leaving us all shook. But peep the standings, Strasbourg's like one step from that danger zone, and they ain't safe. Tied with Auxerre, they gotta bring it in the next games, but it ain't looking too hot for them.

Lens, though, they're sitting pretty, eyeing that top spot in Ligue 1, looking to tussle with PSG. They gotta crush Strasbourg to keep dreaming. But man, PSG's on deck, ready to throw down, and that clash is gonna be the real test. Consistency's the name of the game, and with nine matches to go, Lens better find their groove and lock in that Champions League spot next season.
Lens is on form,  but I see Strasbourg as one of the teams that have been a problem to french top clubs in this season.  Their past records proves them to be a big problem to strong sides like Monaco, Masseille,  Lyon and many more others. Both  in head to head analysis lenz seems favourable, but in the standing Auxerre is very close to overthrowing Strasbourg and with a single point this will be possible, I don't see Strasbourg allowing this cuz it may draw them even more  closer to the relegation zone. For now I can't bet on any side to win
5595  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 06, 2023, 06:22:28 AM
Lazio vs Juventus will be a tight match. Both teams perform very well currently. Although Lazio is in 2nd place, I don't think that Lazio is better than Juventus. Juventus is just unlucky because he got a problem, so they lose many points. But if we consider the squad quality, I think Juventus squad is much better than Lazio squad. I really expect that Juventus to win this match, they have good motivation to return to top 5. If they win this match, I assume they may return to top 5 at the end of the season.
Lazio can not be underestimated. Lazio beat Napoli 0-1 at home to Napoli. Lazio also beat Roma 1-0. against Juventus, the chances are 50:50 I think, but Lazio has the competence to beat Juve.
Juventus did well, but Lazio had a more consistent performance. even though they didn't win big, Lazio consistently collected winning points, that's what made them in 2nd place in the Serie A standings.

I see no chance of underestimating Lazio this season. I would even say that Lazio is the most consistent team in Serie A at the moment. They are unbeaten in the last 6 matches. And they have beaten big teams like Napoli and Roma in recent times. Lazio fully deserved to win against Juventus. Juventus have a strong squad no doubt. However, it will be challenging for Juventus players to beat Lazio at home. Lazio players are in good form. They will be more confident in home matches. Both teams will have equal chances of winning the match. But if Lazio can score the first goal of the match I guess they will win.
Being consistent and defeating big team's will not determine this match.  it's Juventus we are talking about here. Even from the odds given by book makers you see that juventus being the visiting team still has winning advantage.  Lazio are exceptionally great this season but they wouldn't have been in that position if points were not deducted from Juv.  Juventus I know still has a strong affinity for the top 4, and with 4 points different from Atalanta I think they will be eagerly playing to secure more points from this match in order to achieve that. I'm not underrating Lazio, but juv is more favourable.

Also look at the head to head , in the last three meets between the two , since 2018 manchester united can never get a win .. it's two loses and 1 draw , bad stats for united but yeah we could be wrong ... the current manchester united vibes far better than the 5 years ago.

I go for sevilla to get through next phase though , i have pretty strong feeling on this.
Even though previously Sevilla were superior to Manchester United, this time Manchester United will turn things around. In the English league of course Manchester United are not so good for their game. But Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford will make new history for Manchester United.
The meeting statistics can indeed be used as an indicator of how the match will go, but it will not be 100% accurate which means Manchester United have a chance to improve their meeting record. Now all in all I would say that Manchester United are better than Sevilla. If you are going to Sevilla to get through this round, then I am going to Manchester United to win this game.
Meeting statistics sometimes determines matches outcome but in most cases it doesn't.  I have analyse a bet using those statistics.  Here the other side had just one winning out of 23 meetings and was given 23 odds but they defeated the opponents with 1.06.  Comparing this to Manchester - Sevilla anticipated clash, I don't think one should dwell on those past records cuz I know it will not be a perfect measure stone for the outcome. Manchester United currently is rated to be the favorable side.

Chelsea's current condition is very doubtful. they have a problem with their consistency that doesn't improve. and now they also have to lose their trainer, Graham Potter. so Chelsea's current condition is very unclear. Unlike Real Madrid, which has a positive trend in the Champions League, we can't doubt it at all. and it is very clear that it is very likely that Real Madrid will indeed have the chance to win even in the two legs later. but Chelsea could have provided an unexpected result in the quarter-final match later. but it seems that not many people will dare to bet on Chelsea in the quarter-final match later.
Currently Chelsea is handled by Bruno Saltor, there is indeed no special track record from Saltor. But I think he's not much different from Potter. Saltor is Potter's team at Brighton. Indeed, a tough task is in his hands. He will face Aston Villa and Chelsea in the EPL. In the UCL they will play Madrid, there is a chance even if it is small. I think if Saltor can win and qualify for the semi-finals it's a surprise. But I'm sure it's Real Madrid who will qualify.

Bruno Saltor is still an intern as far as I know he is not ready for coaching a great team like Chelsea and even if he is ready to coach a team he needs to start his career with another team where he won't be under this much pressure, I think the best they can do is to focus on hiring a good coach for next season because there is nothing to lose for them anymore.
Chelsea has named Their former player and manager in the person of Frank Lampard as the interim manager till the end of the season. But what I don't know is if that decision will yield a good result for the London club.
Lampard undoubtedly is good manager but I still think he's still an average Manager that's not up to the standard of Chelsea as a club. They have a UEFA Champions League quarter final tie against a big team like Real Madrid and with the current happenings in the club I doubt that Lampard can come in and have a great effect on the team

Lukaku's red card is a disgrace! he was insulted throughout the match he played and only because he cheered under the Juventus fans did he receive the second yellow card of the match and expulsion, but when Cuadrado scored who started dancing in front of the Inter fans he was not been warned! so the referee used two meters and two measures as they say. in my opinion the game was balanced from the beginning. the passage of the round will be decreed at san siro in the return match
Although the match was very interesting and intense, it's a shame that the match had to be ruined due to an embarrassing incident. I think it was embarrassing for the referee to give Lukaku a yellow card, which turned into a red card and let him be sent off because of the racial chants the juvetini shouted at him.

With this incident I think Serie A will have to face a lot of problems. They must be firm in eradicating corruption, match fixing, tax evasion and crucial racism. There seems to be satisfaction from the team and it is not fixed.
The referee got the Lukaku decision very wrong. The Italian Football Federation has to bring stiffer measures for clubs fans that are found with racism. The earlier they start publicly condemning and punishing the offenders the better for the Italian football. What a sad way to ruin a match that was very interesting and entertaining to watch especially from neutrals

It seems that I am behind with Bayern Munich vs Dortmund victory. Even I was surprised they were able to win 4-2. A great start for Tuchel he could immediately prove himself a World coach. Chelsea should have lost because they let him go. Tuchel managed to make Munich continue to press until winning 4-0.
But after winning big, Munich dropped the game and they shouldn't. Hopefully of course Tuchel can be consistent, he must not make small mistakes so that he loses points again. If that happens, Dortmund will return to the top again.
Aight, I get you're side-eyeing Tuchel and his consistency game, but let's not jump the gun. Yeah, one W against Dortmund ain't exactly world-class coach proof, but we can't just write off his success like that. Tuchel's got a history of winning at other clubs, and he might just be that secret sauce Bayern needs to crush it at the top. And about Bayern going head-to-head with Guardiola's crew? Look, football's wild – anything can happen. Just 'cause one team's got a better rap sheet doesn't mean they'll always come out on top. We gotta think tactics, too. What's Tuchel's game plan? What's the lineup looking like? All these factors can flip the script on match day.
Thomas Tuchel is one coach who I really have so much confidence in because he knows how to make his team play exactly the way he wants. The manner at which he influences the mentality of his team is another factor that stands him our from other managers. The tie against Guardiola's City won't be an easy one because the english club will also want to win the the trophy that has eluded them since the creation of the club. But regardless of the quality of players in the City set up I'm still backing Tuchel to beat them

Having this type of air in the league where teams do not know if PSG is doing well enough or not, made the rest of them not so great neither. I mean that's what happens when a good team leads the league, because you are not entirely sure if you should chase or not, when you try to chase and they end up with a better result, you feel like you are never going to catch up to them and makes you feel bad, and when you lose and they lose as well, you feel like you missed a big chance and that makes you feel even worse.

Only thing that could make you feel better is to win when they lose and that rarely could happen since they lose so rarely, and that's why it's a hard job.
PSG has lost for the second time after being humiliated against Rennes before and yesterday was beaten again by Lyon even though we know that PSG have a lot of great players but can't beat them, I think PSG needs to make changes to tactics so they don't suffer consecutive defeats, even though PSG still at the top of the standings but this must be taken seriously, PSG must completely overhaul in the future so as not to suffer previous defeats.
Paris Saint Germain's tactical unbalance this season is as a result of the mentality and work rate of their manager and that's where they were dumbed out of Europe by Bayern Munich in the round of 16. Christophe Galtier isn't the best man for the PSG job and he must accept it and leave the club at the end of the season. The club owners has hugely invested in this club and they need to start winning trophies both domestic and European honours and if they must achieve that, then they have to get a new Coach
