French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Raflesia]

Neymar's shirt in PSG got a new owner and now Dembele is a player who is going to wear the number ten in PSG for next season, in fact when there was some news about Mbappe leaving PSG there were some people they said Dembele will use the number seven. But now the posters of Dembele's shirt are published and he will use the number ten.

Dembele has the sacred number ten, which we hope will suit his PSG career very well. With Dembele present, the PSG squad really looks amazing the depth of their squad looks strong. But what makes PSG strong is still Mbappe, reportedly he is back playing for PSG. Under Enrique leadership it seems that Mbappe will be more confident about being able to get the UCL Trophy, if this season PSG gets a Trophy then I'm sure Mbappe will extend his contract with PSG.

It seems that PSG have high hopes for Dembele by awarding the number 10 to decorate the jersey he is wearing. He immediately inherited the number used by Neymar after officially moving to Al Hilal. In terms of quality, Dembele is still below Mbappe, he has been injured very often while defending Barcelona. I admit that since Barcelona was handled by Xavi, Dembele has managed to find his identity and has rarely been injured. He will immediately be included in the starting eleven compiled by Luis Enrique, hopefully Dembele can maintain his performance under Luis Enrique's management and not be easily injured like Neymar who used number 10 before Dembele.

I am sure that Dembele is more right side, but in the end he is still just replacing one player, not two. They had Neymar and Messi, arguably the greatest players they ever had on that team aside from only Mbappe. This means that Dembele has big shoes to fill and he will have to play a lot better than he did at Barcelona.

I am guessing that we are going to end up with a situation that would be a bit different, it is not going to end up with anything that would be worthwhile and I think it is quite important to remember that we are going to end up with a solution that easily. We need to make sure that it is not going to be that simple, and we need to make sure that things are not that simple and should be considered that they will be worse.

If in the end he will be placed in the same position then there will most likely be a change from Asensio's position which could be used as a centre forward for PSG flanked by Dembele and Mbappe.
But with this, Tuchel must indirectly revive Asensio's goal-scoring instinct.
Dembele and Asensio currently have the same position but both have slightly different styles of play because Dembele is more directed towards fast running and Asensio is more about technique and penetrating the heart of the defence if positioned at the winger.
Dembele himself regained his form when he was coached by Xavi and actually he has a high level of adaptation if guided by the right coach, it's just that we have to see if now he can really be appreciated.

In the match between Mersille and Mezt tonight, in my opinion, the match was very beautiful and full of sensations to watch, because of what? because the two teams have met in previous matches.
Even though Mersille narrowly won against Mezt yesterday, maybe now the Mezt team has prepared a strategy or tactic so that later they can avenge their previous defeat or even draw a draw.

Metz is back in promotion this season to Ligue 1. but it seems they also don't have such striking abilities yet.
Marseille is still too strong for them to beat. even with Rannes in the first match, Metz had to surrender to conceding 5 goals.
the match against Marseille will probably be the second defeat at the start of this season for Metz. I'm afraid that next season they will lose their place in Ligue 1 if the performance they show continues like this.

Still not compete yet with promotion team Metz after first match in Ligue 1 defeated by Rennes 5-1 and current score until 50th minutes, Metz loss from Marseille 0-1 from Emran Soglo goal in 14th minutes. I doubt with Metz performance enough to stay in Ligue 1 next season current last two games failed to get points although left more minutes against Marseille.
Looking on statistic until 50th minutes, Marseille is not really dominance with ball possession and Metz success balance it with ball controlling 50% but has weakness with Metz less contributing shots on goals.

Metz 2 - 2 Marseille, another bad result for Marseille these days. After their defeat vs Panathinaikos in Champions League, they failed vs Metz which was just defeated by Rennes by 5 goals.. They will slide soon from the first place to the 7th place if they were lucky. That's without counting the help they give to PSG of course by wasting easy points as usual..

Expect Dembele to do great things at PSG. This is because Mbappe is a fast player and Dembele is also a very fast player. So the chemistry between the two can build up tremendously.

Ousmane Dembele is a different player than Neymar. I don't see Dembele playing for himself, he proved it at Barcelona with Xavi. Dembele tends to rarely score goals, but he is the type of player who makes a big contribution to other players' goals.

After all, Dembele and Mbappe are compatriot players who already have a close relationship at the national team. They are players who have good talent belonging to PSG at the moment who can possibly play well in a team. Nevertheless, I hope Luis Enrique can turn Dembele into a goal machine instead of expecting him to have high assists, it will be useful for PSG if Mbappe leaves the following season.

Comparing these two palters is not right but I think Dembele can have much better performance in PSG than Neymar during the time when he was playing for this team, especially because we know Dembele left Barcelona because Xavi didn't believe his skills at all and this player is even more motivated to have better performance to prove himself. Also considering the age of Neymar and Dembele, we know Dembele can be a good investment for PSG in the next years.

Marseille didn't play well enough in this match, even though if you look at their opponents, of course they are very superior to win this match. However, when the match started they performed quite well in the first half but they suffered a setback in the second half which made the situation in the second half boomerang for them because Metz was able to score two goals and when it came to the last minutes in the second half Marseille could equalize  printed by Vitinha.

Besides that, a red card graced this match where in the 59th minute Lô had to get a red card so that the tempo of Metz game was even more aggressive in this match. Well, on the other hand, we can see that Aubameyang, who was recruited in this transfer window from Chelsea, still cannot contribute his goals for Marseille in Ligue 1, but he scored 2 goals during the Marseille vs Panathinaikos match in the Champions League.

[arimamib]

The match between Toulouse vs PSG looks like it will be easy to guess who will win because in this match Mbappe will return to playing after he was absent in the previous match because he was not played due to an incident about him in this transfer window. I think victory will come to PSG in the second match of the season. What's more, the depth of these two teams makes quite a difference because PSG is inhabited by quite high-quality players compared to the depth of the Toulouse squad.

Moreover, this match will be important for PSG to get back up and win because PSG under Luis Enrique allegedly they have greater potential in advancing the squad to become stronger thanks to his experience in coaching other teams in his previous career. Can't wait for Mbappe debut with PSG again and hope he scores goals in this game.

PSG have good players that would surpassed the actions and performance of the former ones. Ousmane Dembele and Neymar Jr are almost the same pairing interms of physiques and crucial abilities on the pitch.  PSG have troubles with Neymar Jr because he was inconsistent in league games, always vulnerable to injuries that would ruled him out for months and missing half of the league. The parisians boss, Luis Enrique will make things work a little bit faster for the Frenchman, he knows basically how to utilized Dembele's performance to blend with his ultimate objectives.

What was quite surprising about this match was not only because Metz managed to get 1 point but how they managed to score two goals after losing one player to a red card and making them ahead of their opponent, and it seemed that Marseille was off guard when they were ahead and only faced opponents who were playing with 10 players and surprised by the two goals scored by Metz, even though Marseille managed to score one goal to equalize but only get 1 point against a fairly weak team is not fun, moreover Metz is a promotion team.

PSG against Toulouse, PSG are far superior and with the return of Mbappe to their list of players this will give them even more confidence that they will start getting positive results again in every match going forward, and I think they will win convincingly.

there is no need to doubt or look at Dembele in terms of performance because it is very clear when compared to Neymar, it is definitely very different, but PSG taking this player does not mean that they have to have the same performance as Neymar and what Enrique wants is Dembele to be able to unite his chemistry with other players, especially Mbappe. I support what you said Dembele is not a scorer but he knows how to provide the right pass for his friends who have the chance to score.
so Enrique might collaborate these two players but do not know if its true and we all see what will happen for sure Dembele can not disappoint PSG fans.

Why are you then saying that the new players will surpass the performances of the former ones when in the next sentence you write that Dembele is almost the same as Neymar? Which is actually true because Dembele is as susceptible to massive injuries as Neymar and misses most of the games. You  can check his injury history and will see that substituting Neymar with Dembele is really risky because it could be exactly the same problem. Replacing Messi is impossible as well or who do you think will play as efficient as Messi did?

Dembele and Mbappe are two players from the same country and together they contributed a lot to take the team to the final of the World Cup so the Parisians are looking forward to doing something great for PSG. Dembele joined Barcelona for a huge transfer fee but he may not have performed as well as Barcelona expected which led Barcelona to sell Dembele to PSG at a relative loss this season. PSG are delighted to have Dembele in the fold and he has already been handed the club's all-important jersey number 10. Mbappé Dembele can do what Messi Neymar couldn't do. This season can be said to be a big opportunity for PSG because Mbappé is staying this season and Luis Enrique is the manager of this season, so overall a good season may be waiting for PSG.

Individually Dembele is very far from Neymar and Messi, but in contributing to PSG it is possible that Dembele can surpass Neymar if he has a long tenure at PSG. But this is just the start of the season, if Dembele and Mbappe can avoid injuries, they can make a good contribution to PSG.

Yesterday's draw will motivate Luis Enrique's squad in the second week, Mbappe is reported to be starting tomorrow's match, a worthy duo later.

[Docnaster]

The match between Toulouse vs PSG looks like it will be easy to guess who will win because in this match Mbappe will return to playing after he was absent in the previous match because he was not played due to an incident about him in this transfer window. I think victory will come to PSG in the second match of the season. What's more, the depth of these two teams makes quite a difference because PSG is inhabited by quite high-quality players compared to the depth of the Toulouse squad.

Moreover, this match will be important for PSG to get back up and win because PSG under Luis Enrique allegedly they have greater potential in advancing the squad to become stronger thanks to his experience in coaching other teams in his previous career. Can't wait for Mbappe debut with PSG again and hope he scores goals in this game.

In as much as Paris Saint Germaine does fumble in some matches they're expected to easily win, I don't think they'll finish their French Ligue 1 opening match against Toulouse with any result other than a win.
This will be Luis Enrique's first competitive match of the season and to many a match he must prove to Paris Saint Germaine fans that he has all it takes to manage the French champions this season. With the recent signings at PSG added to the existing quality of players in the squad, it should be an easy win for the club.

I think it is normal to stick with the tendency that PSG will win this game easily against Toulouse, but the first game has shown that this is not always the case. When they can fail in a home game as the far better team and not score a single goal, the same can also happen in a game away of course.

It's a one-sided game in theory because no other team can afford the player material that PSG has, but it doesn't mean everything. They need to have the right and strong team spirit to prevail and in the first game Mbappe was also missing. He could be the player who makes the difference now if he is going to play.

Has it been decided yet whether Mbappe will play against Toulouse?

[Luzin]

Has it been decided yet whether Mbappe will play against Toulouse?

It's not wrong to play him because I think they still need Mbappe. Neymar's departure certainly makes Mbappe an important player at the moment, as PSG are also yet to find a replacement. So I think he should play. In addition, I know that Mbappe has also joined training with the team. Although I believe there is a real problem that is not completely resolved. But the first game I think PSG should start with a win. That will make PSG mentally better.

[Distraction]

But I don't think so. After Mbappe stated everything clearly about his future there should be no return. Maybe he didn't state that he was going to join Real Madrid after this season. But he indicated that he wouldn't activate his one-year extension with PSG.

The final decision has not yet taken by him. How can you say that if mbappe already indicated won't activate his one year extension with PSG? Everything about mbappe is complicated thing.

I can say that because he made a statement on his future a few months ago. He said that by himself that he wasn't thinking of extending his contract. He was looking quite determined about his statement also. I said that by relying on his statement as a result.

However this is football and everything can change in an unexpected moment. Therefore you are right that there is still a possibility for him to be convinced by PSG. But I hope to watch him at Real Madrid after this season ends.

Because this can't go on like this. Mbappe can be even more comfortable there and he would be more likely to win the Champions League title too.

Paris Saint-Germain FC will play Toulouse tonight. Paris Saint-Germain FC are going through a major shell change. Players like Messi, Ramos, Neymar, Parades and Renato Sanches have left the team. They have signed quality young players like Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio and Gonçalo Ramos. But they need time to become a good team. Last week they drew 0-0 with Lorient. On the other hand, Toulouse beat Nantes 2-1 in the first week of the French Ligue 1. But I want to give Paris Saint-Germain FC a chance in this match. I think they will do what is necessary in this match. Although it is an away match, I expect a win for Paris Saint-Germain FC tonight.

It can be said that there are no quality players in the PSG team at present. Mbappe and Dembele can only do great things in attack. However, the PSG team has serious problems with its midfielders and defense.

Even though PSG lost several important players in the transfer market this season, at least they have also moved quickly to find replacements for all of these players. I think this is just a matter of adapting to players who have just joined and they have to get used to the strategy given by the coach. If we look at the list of players brought in this match, there is the name Kylian Mbappe, and that means he will start playing in this match, either as a starter or as a reserve player later. Apart from all that, I also hope that PSG can win this time so they can dominate Ligue 1 again.

[klidex]

Still not compete yet with promotion team Metz after first match in Ligue 1 defeated by Rennes 5-1 and current score until 50th minutes, Metz loss from Marseille 0-1 from Emran Soglo goal in 14th minutes. I doubt with Metz performance enough to stay in Ligue 1 next season current last two games failed to get points although left more minutes against Marseille.
Looking on statistic until 50th minutes, Marseille is not really dominance with ball possession and Metz success balance it with ball controlling 50% but has weakness with Metz less contributing shots on goals.

What was quite surprising about this match was not only because Metz managed to get 1 point but how they managed to score two goals after losing one player to a red card and making them ahead of their opponent, and it seemed that Marseille was off guard when they were ahead and only faced opponents who were playing with 10 players and surprised by the two goals scored by Metz, even though Marseille managed to score one goal to equalize but only get 1 point against a fairly weak team is not fun, moreover Metz is a promotion team.

PSG against Toulouse, PSG are far superior and with the return of Mbappe to their list of players this will give them even more confidence that they will start getting positive results again in every match going forward, and I think they will win convincingly.

If I saw yesterday's match it seemed that the Marseille players were ignoring like underestimating Metz players because it was very clear that Marseilla should have been superior and took advantage of this situation to score even more but in reality all the Marseille players were very bad at underestimating Metz players in the end they conceded and ended in a draw.
This is Marseille's weakness in playing inconsistently. They think the first goal they produce can give them victory at the end of the match, but the reality is very bad.
I started to think what if for example the Metz player didn't get a red card would Marseille lose because of this inconsistency.
Very disappointed when I saw that the Marseille club could not beat the club that was promoted this season was very bad.
