French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[borovichok]

There is still no action taken about Galtier by PSG. This season can't be counted as successful for him no matter how much he says that it was a good one. Winning the Ligue 1 title is an easy peasy achievement for PSG with a huge strength gap like this with the other teams. As long as they can't be competitive for the Champions League title and win it there is nothing that much admirable.
Maybe PSG haven't made up their mind about Mourinho yet and they are looking into some other candidates as well. But the earlier they finish the rumours about this manager change topic the better for them. While PSG are on the verge of losing Mbappe as well they need to make their choices more carefully from now on. Otherwise the Champions League title will be only in their dreams.

Constantly changing coaches will not help the team grow because each new coach appointed brings a completely new game style to the table. The problem will be pointing to the players, who will find it tough to adjust to his tactics, while others will fit in flawlessly.  The Parisians require a potential coach who will bring the UEFA Champions League trophy to the Parc de Princes rather than their customary Ligue 1 triumph. Keeping an eye on José Mourinho, he's one of the few competent coaches in football, he understands the fundamentals of the game, and I'm convinced that if he joins PSG, things will improve for the club.

Next year in the French league will be interesting because many superstar players will leave PSG and they will join other teams PSG should replace these players but I think finding players will need enough time and enough money and since the PSg owner invested enough and didn't get good results we can't expect to see them spending more for the next season.
This situation can give a good chance to other teams, for example, a team like Lens could have a close race with PSG until the end of the season while they didn't have superstar players like PSG, now if PSG loses these players other teams can have a much better chance for the French League title in the next season.

I want to see if they will bring back superstar names in their squad next season or not. Because what I know is that they always do this to put them as a club with many luxury players.
Paris Saint Germain was hit by a serious problem that made the players not feel at home in the squad for long and decided to leave, and this should be used by other clubs to put pressure on Paris Saint Germain if they can't solve the problem quickly.
Actually there is a good improvement from Lens and Marseille for example, they can put pressure on this season, and I hope they can do it again and more next season.

I don't want to say bad things about Galtier, but the success situation at the club is obvious. Since the French League is not a very strong league, it is not difficult to be successful, but they did not become a quality team as the teams in the Premier League. That's why achieving success in the Champions League is something extra difficult.
Having a new coach on the team is very valuable and important at times like these. I think PSG can get better results after Galtier

[ILuckyGuyI]

Galtier already sacked by PSG at the beginning of this month. I think that there's no need to do something about him.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12165769/Paris-Saint-Germain-sack-head-coach-Christophe-Galtier-single-season-charge.html

Even napoli has seen him as a potential candidate to be a new coach for napoli. PSG is now still looking to sign a new player. Have you read the latest update regarding him?

So many news about PSG sacked galtier already published in the various sites.

I haven't heard of any official statement from PSG side interestingly. I didn't know that they already parted ways with Galtier. Because I check Transfermarkt frequently and I still see him as PSG's manager. Maybe they are waiting for PSG to announce the new manager officially soon to replace Galtier with him right after that.

The new manager is likely to be Nagelsmann for now. At least the latest speculations point to that. But I feel like they haven't still made up their mind between Mourinho and Nagelsmann options. Mourinho is still open for contract discussions with PSG. I find Mourinho more credible about bringing a Champions League title to this team honestly.

I wouldn't like to underestimate Nagelsmann but there is a really big career difference.

even though in the past when there were Neymar, Messi and Mbappe these three popular players I really hoped that at least PSG could enter the champions league final but unfortunately the presence of top players was not enough to help PSG achieve their dream of winning the champions league.
in this new season the hope of fans of the french league team only wants one of the representatives from the french standings to be able to enter the semifinals or the final round of the champions league to prove that the french league is not that bad.

If I'm not mistaken, SPG has removed Galtier from the coaching chair. because, as far as the rumors that I have read at this time there is only one name that is currently in contact with SPG. as quoted by Fabrio Romano, direct talks between Juliian Nagelsmann and PSG continue, there are important details that must be clarified because this week PSG is busy with Mbappe's chaos.

Well, negotiations are ongoing with Nagelsmann, no deal has been done at this stage. that means, there is a serious stage being carried out by PSG for a potential replacement for Galtier. but unfortunately, I didn't hear any news or rumors about Mourinho as a strong candidate to become PSG coach later. I'm pretty sure, if Nagelsmann is asking for some requirements to be fulfilled by PSG and if this materializes then Nagelsmann will become PSG coach next season.
Speaking of other rumours, Paris Saint-Germain are already in talks with Benardo Silva's camp regarding a project and personal terms. he is a priority target and an important part of PSG's plans. well, this time PSG glanced at a player that the club really needed, that they really needed a player as creative as Benardo Silva.
Regarding Mbappe, let's just wait and see how it turns out.

[Distraction]

Neymar's future also doesn't look clear for now. Everyone is saying that he is most likely to leave this summer. Some speculations have been coming and going but there isn't an official offer yet. The latest rumours are recorded on June 13 (Al-Hilal) and June 10 (Barcelona) on Transfermarkt website. You see even Barcelona there.

But the Barcelona rumour is just much far away from truth compared to the Al-Hilal one. Because if Barcelona were able to solve their problems with FFP rules in the first place then they would have signed Messi. Because Xavi was strictly prioritizing Messi in the transfer window.

When it comes to signing for a Saudi Arabian team it wouldn't be unrealistic. But it depends on whether he gets an offer from a top European team first. In that case maybe he might want to stay here a little more and then leave for making much more money for Saudi Arabia or MLS.

Even napoli has seen him as a potential candidate to be a new coach for napoli. PSG is now still looking to sign a new player.

In the end it was going to happen and after the season was over sooner or later this news was bound to be there and it was.
Galtier will not be able to stay at PSG for long, he can be one of the better coaches but his place is not a big club, at least in this case he will not be able to be there considering his qualifications are still below what they should be.

For Napoli it's unlikely to happen now that they've appointed Rudi Garcia as Spalletti's replacement and for that matter I don't even have any expectations of this coach for Napoli next season. Let's hope he does well in the end.

Regarding Messi, it is said that Messi has joined Inter Miami even on a free transfer and thus, it is certain that Messi will play in MLS. But regarding Neymar, basically Neymar is still under contract at PSG until 2025 and that's a pretty long contract too. But yes, because Neymar is so often injured, of course it will be a serious consideration for big clubs out there to recruit Neymar. But even so, I personally am still very confident that Neymar can still be relied upon but yes, if I consider Neymar's age and the contract that Neymar has at PSG, it seems that Neymar does not have a big chance of moving to another big club in Europe.

Even with 3 such strong players, they could not be successful. The problem is that we have very high expectations from this team. In a team with a star player like Messi, we always expect it to be one of the top 2 teams in the world. But when there is no success, we start to think that there is a problem with the coach.
The French League needs to show how good it is. We can say that it is not a very prestigious league in its current form. teams are just starting to develop

Maybe Messi has found a decent club to continue his career, but for Neymar it looks like Paris SG is confused by this fact whether to keep Neymar on the other hand often injured and if you want to sell Neymar it is difficult for other clubs to be interested in Neymar's current condition.
I feel sorry for Neymar in the coming season, maybe his career will be a little disrupted by the injury he experienced, but the hope that Neymar's fans will really recover soon and be able to make a good contribution to Paris SG.

If Neymar wants to play it safe, he can stay in the PSG team and gather the money that he is getting. And if he wants to try his luck probably he should go to a big European club. I don’t know if that is possible anymore, considering the fact that he is almost always injured and he is also quite old at this point.

I also really do not want him to go to a club like Inter Miami or something like that. I still want him to play. Again the biggest problem is that he is not being able to stay fit to play. If he is healthy, he will be able to play in European clubs and also European competitions for at least two more years. But injuries are very common for him. I believe that is the biggest reason why big European clubs are not going to show interest in him.

Psg want to sell Neymar, they don't want him to be in the club by next season, if Neymar does not go, he may not be happy with how he will be treated next season. The problem is that Neymar is too expensive and many clubs cannot buy him or pay his wages, Neymar would either have to cut his salary down or move to a club like Newcastle or to one of the Saudi clubs that has enough money to pay him. Neymar is no longer a footballer that many clubs will want, so he may not have too many options this summer.

[Falconer]

So far Mbappe has not justified his desire to join Real Madrid next season, but he has only said he will not extend his contract which will expire at the end of the season. This would be a strong signal that Mbappe could leave PSG anywhere, that also includes Real Madrid who have tried to sign him in recent seasons.

That's true but speculation can't be avoided. As you can see that if people will be seeing it as a signal if mbappe is interesting to join in another club especially real madrid which has been always linked with him since the previous season.
Madrid has no progress in signing him as a new player right now. What i know that if madrid is now trying to see his progress with PSG.
It seems like that madrid will not buy him even though PSG will be selling him in summer. PSG really needs money right now. PSG lost a lot from messi and neymar. The club is willing to recover at least some money from selling bellingham.

I just can't understand why Real Madrid tend to stay quiet and calm in situations like this, I think this is a good opportunity to reach some agreements with Mbappe. I don't know if they have, but nothing concrete about this rumor yet.

It's caused by real madrid may not be willing to spend a lot of money to get him again. Manchester united has very big ambition to sign mbappe once PSG will announce to sell him in summer. It's all still speculation.
That's why we shall wait for another news that may come in coming days.

Before Mbappe renewed his last contract with Mbappe, I think Real Madrid had tried to convince Mbappe to leave PSG for free. But Real Madrid's plan at that time failed because PSG managed to force and convince Mbappe to extend his contract which will expire in 2024, so that has made Real Madrid furious.

I think it makes absolutely no sense for Real Madrid to get Mbappe for free when he is a star player for another team. Mbappe must receive a decent offer and the team that has it must receive a commensurate fee. If Real Madrid want to sign Mbappe then I hope they are willing to pay PSG big money. This is what I don't believe in because it seems Real Madrid doesn't want to.

[Doell]

Next year in the French league will be interesting because many superstar players will leave PSG and they will join other teams PSG should replace these players but I think finding players will need enough time and enough money and since the PSg owner invested enough and didn't get good results we can't expect to see them spending more for the next season.
This situation can give a good chance to other teams, for example, a team like Lens could have a close race with PSG until the end of the season while they didn't have superstar players like PSG, now if PSG loses these players other teams can have a much better chance for the French League title in the next season.

Yes, seems like would be interesting. But the Rumor, PSG already targeted several players. Marco Asensio, Milan Skriniar, Manuel Ugarte, Lee Kang-in, Cher Ndour. Some of these players might strengthen the PSG squad, if they succeed in getting their signatures, then I think PSG can still win the title of Ligue 1. Also Mbappe maybe can still give his best for PSG, it's just that this team needs head coach, because apart from losing several superstar players PSG also lost a coach Sir.

Neymar is no longer a footballer that many clubs will want, so he may not have too many options this summer.

It is true that PSG rumoured intention to sell Neymar raises the possibility of a change in their preparations for the upcoming campaign. Neymar is still a highly accomplished player with a sizable fan base despite the fact that his exorbitant asking price may present a barrier for many clubs. It is impossible to deny Neymar skill on the pitch despite his infrequent controversies. If a transfer were to take place it would probably necessitate rigorous pay bargaining and perhaps even Neymar own readiness to consider lowering his compensation expectations. While certain Saudi clubs or teams like Newcastle could be able to afford him it is hard to say where Neymar will end up in the future. In the end the football market is dynamic and the Brazilian superstar may encounter unforeseen opportunities.

I feel sorry for Neymar in the coming season, maybe his career will be a little disrupted by the injury he experienced, but the hope that Neymar's fans will really recover soon and be able to make a good contribution to Paris SG.

The farewell message from Neymar to his bossom friend Lionel Messi after the latter left Paris Saint Germaine is a very big indicator that Neymar wasn't happy with the club's management decisions which made Messi leave the club.
Neymar I think would also want to leave the French capital but his problem now will to see a good club that'll want sign him because if his constant injury crises. Neymar might have to finish his contract with PSG if no good offer comes for him

[Leviathan.007]

Regarding the players, PSG loses this season the biggest question is about Neymar because we know Messi is going to play in Inter Miami the next season and Mbappe will stay in PSG or he will accept the offer from Real Madrid. But the situation for Neymar is complicated because he is injured and getting old that's why there are not many teams that want to hire this player in this situation. Not surprising to see Neymar playing for teams in Arabian countries.

I dont think that Mbappe will go at all to Real Madrid. I dont even think there is a slight chance after what happened last year plus he said he is gonna stay in PSG so thats a lock. If Neymar leaves they will lose another superstar. Ramos is leaving aswell so PSG will be weak next season
