French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[hd49728]

Mbappe did not discuss any long-term contract with the PSG board president, Mbappe may have discussed with the president that he will only stay at PSG for one more season and play his best for PSG for one season.

Mbappe surely looks at Harry Kane and how that striker stuck at Tottenham after renewing his contract with Spurs some seasons ago. He knows that if he signs a new contract and if it is a long one, he will stuck in PSG similarly to Kane in Tottenham. Logically Mbappe will not repeat that bad decision with a long contract but PSG on their side, don't want to repeat a same mistake by signing one more year contract with Mbappe. Each new contract, higher salary, more power for Mbappe but at the end, PSG will fall into a similar situation on transfer market. They are smart enough after some lessons to not put themselves into another headache.

When Mbappe was rumored to be leaving the club, PSG invited Mbappe to extend his contract, but Mbappe made it clear that he was not willing to extend his contract with PSG. PSG was angry with Mbappe's behavior but in the end PSG did not see any possibility of profit without losing themselves in conflict with Mbappe, because of which the one season that Mbappe will be at PSG, PSG may get the best performance from Mbappe and maybe the board president and Mbappe discussed. Since PSG is not getting along with Mbappe in any way, I think PSG has made the right decision to negotiate with Mbap at this moment.

They, PSG and Mbappe, no longer look at a same direction and they will separate with each other soon. This summer or next summer, their separation will occur. We must be ready for time when Mbappe no longer wear PSG shirts and play for them.

PSG must get used to play without Mbappe as early as possible. I still saw some good things in the match against Lorient. There were some issues with scoring a goal despite the dominance. But this would also get better in time as the new trio in the attacking line are playing together for the first time.

Mbappe can continue to contribute highly this season too. But after this one he is likely to leave the team to join Real Madrid as you know.

PSG are said to be working on an extension of his contract but this time Mbappe seems really determined not to stay. Besides Real Madrid can also offer the same conditions to him.

There seems to have been recent info saying about, Mbappe is willing to extend his contract and it seems to be true. Because after all, it seems that Mbappe does not have a strong stance and is still very unstable in making decisions. Because anyway, when yesterday Mbappe was not included in the list of players when PSG against Lorient, it also seemed to be a surefire way to make Mbappe change his choice become stay at PSG.

Because in the end, Mbappe seemed willing to extend his contract and of course, with an increased salary amount. So, if this really happens, then it looks like Mbappe will be at PSG for a long time and will not leave. That way too, then Mbappe transfer to Real Madrid so far is likely to only be a rumor and will never happen, because Mbappe is very unstable and does not have a strong stand.

It seems that it was a tactic from PSG management to attack Mbappe's mentality, because he was quite unstable to decide this.
If you see a search from Google about Mbappe in his profile for the current team category, there is only him being a player of the Francis national soccer team, not the name of PSG on his current profile in Google's search.

This is a big question mark for me too, what's up? And why?. His status is unclear due to his own selfishness, there is no other choice for Mbappe today is to extend his contract with PSG, and if there are teams who want it to have to pay a high price.

You're right, Kylian Mbappe seems very confident about leaving PSG at the end of next season and will not change his plans. Real Madrid is the most realistic destination for him as there is interest between the two, but something different can still be expected if PSG manage to find a better solution.

PSG don't want to lose Kylian Mbappe for free, even if it were possible. Kylian Mbappe will try his luck in La Liga with Real Madrid because he is very ambitious to win the Champions League title and become the best player in the world. He believes it will be achieved with Real Madrid and I believe in that possibility.

Mbappe is already returning to training with the main team, from which we can conclude that PSG could not agree on a transfer with anyone, and this is not surprising given how much PSG wanted to get for Mbappe. Maybe they will now try throughout the current season to try to convince him to extend his contract with PSG, because if he leaves the team next summer as a free agent, it will be a big loss for PSG.

I would say Mbappe should not be in the squad if he is not interested in renewing his contract with PSG. Luis Enrique is the new coach of the team. He should be given the responsibility of building a new squad. If Mbappe is kept in the squad this season, maybe PSG can play well this season, Mbappe can score a lot of goals. However, if Mbappe leaves the squad next season, there will be another void in the team. And the performance of PSg will become unstable. So this season, Luis Enrique should find replacements for Messi, Neymar and Mbappe and rebuild PSG's squad.

it seems like that the pressure from PSG was working on him. Mbappe thinks for twice regarding extending his contract in PSG. Mbappe has been talking directly with khelaifi regarding his future in the club.

So far so good. We can expect the news about his future to come some days later. I expect mbappe to renew his contract in PSG for another year.

it seems like that all of rumors related to the madrid were only fake rumors. People were talking about madrid too much but they forgot if PSG is always trying to approach him.

[indah rezqi]

The first match in Ligue 1 PSG met Lorient and ended less optimally because it was only a 0 - 0 draw.
This was an unexpected start and of course we can never believe that PSG, which has become the strongest club in Ligue 1, cannot beat Lorient.
We haven't really seen a final decision between Mbappe and PSG because in yesterday's game Mbappe did not play against Lorient and I have even seen the statistics of PSG players and Mbappe is also not on the list of reserve players or substitutes for injured or suspended players also did not see Mbappe's name listed there.
From here, there is one question, is Mbappe really going to leave PSG?
 

No one can guarantee Mbappe future, whether he will stay or leave PSG. The transfer market is still open until 1 September, speculation regarding his future will continue as long as the transfer window has not closed. Luis Enrique is well aware that without Mbappe in the XI PSG cannot do much, the draw against Lorient is a fact.

In the midst of this situation, PSG was faced again with the fact that their star player, Neymar, would leave them. Calling him back to the main maybe squad could be a good option, Mbappe could help PSG.

I think this decision is more about honouring him so that he doesn't end up leaving for free.
Mbappe's 1 season contract extension is only to secure PSG's money because in the agreement according to some reports there is an appendage that he must be sold next season so that indirectly this indicates that this is only a formality for PSG so as not to lose their money and this can also be interpreted as a return of favour from Mbappe who has indeed been given special benefits at PSG.

[Raflesia]

Perhaps Mbappe is not going anywhere else after leaving PSG. Now he will play the next matches regularly. The news of Mbappe's discussion with the PSG board president is being heard, which suggests that Mbappe is staying at PSG.

Mbappe said he wanted to stay in psg and leave for free next summer, and that is what's happening, nothing about that changed, the only change in all of this is that psg said he was going to be frozen out of the team if he didn't sign a new contract and that he wasn't going to play any game this season, but that is not what they have done, they have brought him back into the team, even though he hasn't yet extended his contract with psg. Psg are not a club with strict policies, they are building their team around a single player who is probably going to leave them next season, this is why they aren't going to win the champions leaue yet.

Now that won't happen because Mbappe has extended his contract for one season at PSG but seeing from the clauses circulating in some news this is just like a game so that PSG does not lose its money considering that in the new contract there is a condition where PSG is obliged to sell Mbappe next season which indirectly indicates that Mbappe will still leave, it's just that his departure will not be free because he still has one season left on his contract.

On the other hand, this is actually a good option for PSG because at least they don't lose a lot of money considering that if there is no clarity from Mbappe then apart from the loss they cannot hold Mbappe, they also won't get a cent if this new contract does not exist.

I don't like Mbappe's behavior to PSG, he is a player and should respect the team because they spend a lot of money of money for him as the highest paid player, although I am impressed that he extended his contract with the team in order to give them the chance to get some money back instead of letting him go as a free agent.

Now that PSG has lost some players, will only Mbappe hold the team to victory again this season?

It is enough to withdraw the offer made by PSG for Mbappe and this will allow PSG to continue to receive money from selling Mbappe next year. What PSG has done is right, it's just that they have to anticipate unwanted things next season. Certainly there will be many clubs who are interested in getting Mbappe and the cost is definitely not cheap. Manchester united, chelsea and Real Madrid are probably the most advanced teams to be able to bring in Mbappe. But seeing Mbappe's own interest, it is certain that he will choose Real Madrid and maybe it's just a matter of how the negotiations between PSG and Real Madrid go quite smoothly later. For now Mbappe's future is clear in Paris and that will add another year to his title-winning streak with PSG.

Kylian Mbappe is a major star at PSG so naturally the team has been built around him. But Luis Enrique has his own policies about which players he will choose in a match plan and which not, including freezing Kylian Mbappe from the main line-up. Even I don't think this will actually come true for Mbapee because PSG doesn't have a really reliable striker as reflected in the first match of Ligue 1 some time ago.

PSG really struggle to win games without Neymar, Mbappe and Messi and it's very different when those three are around. At least PSG has a better chance of winning the game with 3 forwards like last season, but yesterday's match was difficult.

To avoid the financial loss of the club, PSG has already tried to sell Mbappe to a good club for one season, but if no club expressed interest in taking Mbappe for just one season, PSG president decided to keep Mbappe in PSG for one more season. At the moment, the club has no other option. If Mbappe was not a French player and PSG was not a French club, Mbappe would have been in great danger at this time.  PSG cannot take any action against him just because he is an important player in France. Luis Enrique may have the chance to plan another season with Mbappe. If Mbappe stays at PSG for one more season, he will try to do something good for PSG.

But you don't really have to build a team around him as he is able to adapt to different formations and play his role exactly as the team needs it without excessively instructing him. But I think the problem this season still is that there has been so much uncertainty for such a long time and no final answer is given to the Mbappe question.

It is said that there is a secret agreement between Mbappe and Khealifi in which Mbappe allegedly gives up a major share of his bonus that is said to be between 100 million and 150 million euros. When I hear news like that I really can't believe that the greedy Mbappe would have agreed to such a deal only to make Khealifi show mercy to him and let him play again for the first PSG team. It is a very questionable agreement in regards to its genuineness, but the press can report whatever they want.

From the looks of now Mbappe will be playing for PSG this season, but it is still said that PSG fears to lose Mbappe for a zero fee. I don't understand how that fits together with the alleged "agreement".

It may not be right to take a big hard stance against Mbappe because Mbappe is a player that PSG always needs. He has proven time and again that he is one of the best in the world with his talents. Now PSG can do things to push him, but unless he leaves the team, he has no other choice. In this case, it would be logical to play him in the team and get efficiency from him.

Despite all the rumors you read on the internet about Kylian Mbappe, I also think that Luis Enrique will expect him to come back into the team and do well this season. I wouldn't fully believe that Kylian Mbappe will be frozen out of the team, but it could happen if PSG's and both sides' approaches don't really pay off.

The situation becomes difficult sometimes not because of the cases of the players involved with the team, but the media can exaggerate it for personal gain by getting a lot of interest. I can only believe that Mbappe's situation at PSG is not good following his desire to leave at the end of next season, but one or two things don't seem to be quite right as the media say.

if it is made into a film, maybe this Mbappe transfer news will be the best drama. even Mbappe as an actor could win an Oscar, because he managed to play a role that made a story full of mystery, made feelings of ups and downs, and lots of plot twists.

Interestingly, this year Real Madrid did not make an official offer for Mbappe, only the news about Mbappe was exaggerated as if Real Madrid wanted to sign him even though Real Madrid had not made an official offer from PSG or Mabppe himself. the news that Mbape does not want to continue with the contract. That's how it is with Real Madrid, we all know Real Madrid want Mbappe free next year. Because the truth is, as you said, PSG only depends on one player. They are very afraid of losing Mbappe, the proof is that Kylian Mbappe is now back training with the PSG main team after previously being exiled or not in Enrique's team. IMO, Kylian Mbappe will change his mind later. He will be open to a contract extension and he will not leave for free either. So now he can return to the PSG playing team.

I prefer to call it a children's series that is played every Sunday morning when the children are off from school. It's kind of funny because I think both PSG and Mbappe are still in the midst of having a number of meetings over his future this season. At least Mbappe can still be expected to change his mind to leave at the end of the season and agree to extend his contract before the season ends.

If basically Real Madrid really want Mbappe from PSG then I think they should come and bring the money. It's unreasonable to expect PSG to let Mbappe left for free, it will be history's worst in modern football so I agree things can change as the season progresses.

Letting the France international joining the squad back was a good decision they lacked attacking threats in the first league one game finally so having Kylian Mbappe and Dembele will make the attackers dangerous once again.
They have no option this season to go on without him, PSG needs Kylian Mbappe more that he does to them.
They should try very hard to make it to the Champions League finals this season. That should be the very first aim assist for them to achieve.

There is no official news that Mbappe has extended the contract (on certain conditions) and I'm not sure that they will appear. I do not see any logic in this - why does Mbappe need this? Plus, I don't see why these fucking games should suit Real Madrid? In the end, they can completely forget about Mbappe and buy, for example, Osimhen or another young star.

I agree that Kylian Mbappe is really needed by PSG to have a good season this season. Apart from his transfer saga with PSG and his intention to leave, then I think it should be separated from their plans for this season in terms of team performance. Mbappe shouldn't spoil everything about PSG's chances this season in Ligue 1 and the Champions League, and as a player with expensive status, he must do better and answer the many wishes of the fans.

The arrival of Ousmane Dembélé from Barcelona can add value to PSG's attacking power this season. Luis Enrique can use this player to support his plans in various competitions, so he should be able to make a positive impact on the likelihood of success instead of failing miserably.

[Leviathan.007]

Today, Renato Sanches and Leandro Paredes both were doing a Medical test for Roma and it seems both players are going to leave PSG soon because Leandro Paredes was playing Juventus on loan in the last season, while he had to return to PSG he didn't want to come back and instead, he prefers to join this Italian team.
I think PSG can have many empty slots and it's time for Enrique to hire more players.
