French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Hirose UK]

Psg are in their bad times lately and other teams are capitalizing on their poor form and are snatching the 3 points away from them, well I still think there's hope for them this season to defend their title and sooner or later they'll bounce back and begin to be consistent in winning games moreover they're still very strong league contenders even though they're not currently at the top of standings as expected.

 Well you're right because smaller clubs are now begin to perform better and re in a better position on the standings than PSG it would very interesting to see another team go far in the league and probably win I'm place of PSG, Monaco seem like a team that could do that this season but I doubt if they'll survive till the end of this season.

Competition in the league always leads to the development of teams, Monaco could be a good competitor for PSG, but they have a different policy, they often sell talented players to other teams and it takes them some time to recover from this. PSG can win Ligue 1 because their results are the most consistent of all the teams in the championship. At the end of the last championship they competed with Lens, and now Lens is at the bottom of the standings. It is also difficult to say how stable Monaco and Nice can be, can they be competitors for PSG throughout the season?

Monaco is the same as Dortmund in the Bundesliga which has another goal namely being able to make some profits when selling the great players they have but if Monaco continues to do things like this then in the future maybe they will experience difficulties where they don't have players who can really do it is relied on and will always be team that may never be able to maintain the top position when it manages to achieve it.
Now Monaco, Nice and PSG will be quite fierce rivals because they hold the first two third place positions and there will probably be time when one of them will fall.
We don't know whether they can be stable and stay in this position or whether they will experience several defeats and then this will give other teams the opportunity to rise to the top because in football there are always unexpected things that may happen more often.

It just that I not really sure that PSG will be able to become champions again this season even though it true that PSG is the only team that always dominates the title in League 1.
It looks like there will be new face who can win the title this season and I want to see at the end of the season who deserves the title to replace PSG who are always the defending champions.

The first of the matches I'm looking forward to next match week will be Nice vs Marseille. Nice have made a good start to the season and are undefeated in 8 games. I think they can be one of the title contenders while doing so well. A possible win against Marseille could give them more confidence. Of course, they are behind teams like PSG and Monaco in terms of scoring goals, but I would like to underline that they are the only team without a defeat yet. Since Marseille will also focus on European games, it seems likely that Nice will win this match.

Im still doubting marseille to win the game this time. It's caused by this team is not yet stable after marseille has been recruiting a new coach to handle the club. Marseille was winning in the last match with great scores but it's not yet convincing me to pick it.
Nice's performance is still very consistent at this moment and it's placed at the second place. Nice will have more winning probability compared with marseille.
I think that we will see a tough game between both of clubs. I personally prefer to see nice to win the game caused by i may pick ig . Nice is performing very nice this time.
I have no doubt if this club will able to win against marseille which is not yet consistent at this moment.

Nice this season is really impressive. Meanwhile, yes Marseille are still not showing any signs of improving their performance, although their last match won but that match against mediocre team. Based on the head to head between Nice vs Marseille, the both have been quite equal in the last five matches. But this season Nice has been very consistent and especially that match will be held at Nice, and I think it is very likely that Nice will win.
Interestingly, the bookies gives quite generous odds for Nice. Currently the odds for this match are Nice @2.37, Draw @3.20, and Marseille @2.90.

I have rarely seen a team that is so efficient with their goals and also with the ratio of goals scored and goals conceded. They have the best defense of the top teams and the worst offense of the top teams and yet they are second in Ligue 1. This is all about the defense for them and it shows that if they score, they are able to maintain the lead over the full 90 minutes and not throw away any of those games. It is an impressive achievement because after all they don't need to care whether they have the weakest offense. All that matters is the number of points they are able to collect and this is looking good for them so far.

PSG's decline has indeed made the Ligue 1 competition even fiercer and I think that is quite a positive thing for many teams to be more enthusiastic in the competition for the title and make this competition even fiercer.
Despite the problems that PSG is currently experiencing, I am very happy about this because it allows other Ligue 1 teams to develop further.
And for Monaco, I think they are still the same as last season, but because of PSG's decline, they are now at the top of the standings.

Share your optimism regarding PSG's turnaround. The season is young, and PSG has a competitive team. Even with Mbappe's double, their loss is a slight setback in a promising season. PSG's 50th season in the top flight shows their consistency and strength​. They're strong in Ligue 1 and could win again.

Monaco's lead in Ligue 1 seems promising. Their accomplishment proves that any football squad can succeed with skill and teamwork. Monaco's coach, Adi Hütter, is doing well. Since other clubs are so strong, it's hard to sustain this level all season. I think PSG will advance in the standings as the season progresses, exhibiting their champion spirit

[Raflesia]

PSG's surprise performances this year are not acceptable. I mean, I can actually accept it considering those who left the team, but if you are such a big team, then you have to compensate for those deficiencies with new players. It seems like Dembele still hasn't been able to fix that deficiency. The championship in League 1 was certain, but that is not certain anymore.

Leaving the team? I think the right word for this is dumped because when you look at the treatment that happened to some of the players who left it did not imply they were leaving PSG, but PSG themselves wanted them to leave.
The example may not be far from 2 players (Messi and Neymar) many people blamed these two players last season for not being able to take PSG in a good direction and there was even an action where the fans were also anarchist when they came to Neymar's residence asking him to leave as soon as possible so with this we cannot say that PSG's condition is bad now because the players left considering the fact that they were the ones who expected it.
Their poor performance is the result of their previous actions and they should be able to accept that by not blaming the players who have left.

PSG are undergoing a rebuild and it is only normal to have shocking embarrassing losses here and there. Against Newcastle United, PSG simply crumbled mentally and tactically and while we blame the players for poor performances, we have to blame the coach too for a poor outing. Eddie Howe simply outclassed and bossed the PSG mega team. Good points for Newcastle United, Enough matches to bounce back for PSG in the champions League.

PSG should bounce back in the league game comfortably this weekend.

Well you're right, what they're going through normally occurs when a club is undergoing a rebuilding, and i think their fans needs to be calm and trust the process, they've got a good coach and a team filled with experienced players therefore if the players work hard on the training ground and put heads together with the coach to work on a better strategy, i believe they'll do better, Even Eddie Howe at some point this season slacked and were performing poorly in the EPL but they didn't give up, but rather worked harder to produce good results currently.

 Therefore i believe that if PSG work hard enough as and maybe figure out a better tactics maybe they'll begin to do better and start winning games as expected, well they need to be very focused against Rennes and play with a good team spirit else they may end up getting another lose.

Well, with respect to things as they Should be , it is normal , because Mbappé is a Player who is always there waiting, what I think is that that is what he wanted to be the only proteganosita on his team, now that he is the only one as the only star, because he must show his worth, there is no other option, if the players always have a good attitude, now they need it , I really don't know, but I know that Mbappé has a quite strong attitude, with respect to Luis Enrique , well , no I could tell Because he is also a Fairly strong person and has a lot to Complain about, he is a very difficult person, that has been shown, at least the attitude he took with the Spanish national team where he basically took over was purely a Barcelona player. Although there were geniuses from Real Madrid, but since they were from their opposing team, they did not call them, I clearly call this immaturity, local tournaments are local tournaments, if you don't like someone, but they are very good in one aspect In particular, you have to take him, because he is working for the country , so I think he is a difficult Person.

PSG manager Luis Enrique defends Kylian Mbappé: “He’s neither Superman […] nor is he a normal player.”

Honestly, I trust the PSG coach more than the PSG squad right now. he is definitely a good coach. So I believe he will be able to bring in good performance with PSG if he is given enough time.  And I also agree that PSG is going through a lot of problems right now. So expecting a really good performance from them is probably not the best thing to ask. I hope they will be able to improve. Because if they do not improve, they will end up losing the Ligue1 title. And imagine what will happen if they do lose that title. That is the one thing that is keeping the fans from going crazy. And I think we all know that they are not winning the Champions League title.

Well, partly I don't know, at one point last season I saw that PSG was one of the best teams in the world, with a large number of star players who could have made a Differenc e, so now the team is like a Now Mbappé dreamed about it, so I don't know what Happened ? because I have seen that that is basically his desire. He doesn't like Mesi or Ney at all, now he's basically the Darling of the team, he can do everything, there's no other way for me, things are pretty strong right now, because now if he needs a lot of these players, help him, I've seen As they have lost, now what I said at one point, the Ligue 1 teams no longer see PSG as a very strong Team , but rather a normal team that they can win and care about, that this time they can lose the league championship. Ligue 1, now in this order of ideas Mbappé has to start doing things well , because he has nothing guaranteed, for Madir I doubt he will leave, I don't think he will leave, however I think that things when it is not about How to win in a team that has so much money , so much to prove and that they are like this, because they Must get up Quickly.

Regarding Luis Enrique, I don't have a bit of faith in him, in fact I think that if they lose everything they will end up throwing him away or he will Resign , I don't see much Success rate in the Teams that he directs, but it is because of his way of acting. being, who does not separate his knowledge from the things that directly affect him, for this reason I believe that things now have to be given quickly, because he has not had good results , and this shows that Mbappé Alone Cannot do Everything , you need theTeam, you need a good teammate to be successful, so in this order of ideas we could say that PSG needs quick results of victories because they can fall far behind, and that would be another type of Karma, the error of the seasons Atnerioes was always the coach, now, who will be the mistake?

PSG's decline has indeed made the Ligue 1 competition even fiercer and I think that is quite a positive thing for many teams to be more enthusiastic in the competition for the title and make this competition even fiercer.
Despite the problems that PSG is currently experiencing, I am very happy about this because it allows other Ligue 1 teams to develop further.

Well, I really respect the interest and enthusiasm of the PSG fans , but Basically they Stick to one goal, Mbappé, and I think that Mbappé will not be the savior of PSG , they have to learn to play as a team, we don't want to give it to them. I play Mbappé, because Mbappé has his mind on being in Madrid or on another Team , here what is at stake is that they are no longer Leaders, they are no longer at the head as they were before, so this causes some stress for They, it is noWonder , because After having a very particular hegemony, they are now fighting much more to take a good position, this makes me remember the Bundesliga in the Place where Bayern was , who Miraculously won the Bundesliga, which They were Totally desperate, and that was something that happened during moments of crisis, of many things where the players could not do much, where they were at their maximum, only the players did not want to leave the team , Otherwise it is and Happens here.

What Scares me about all this is that PSG had the most dangerous lead in the world, and they were not able to win the UCL, which I find impressive, I personally would think that things can happen in different ways , I wouldn't see it that they were the Best , but they did have the best at that time, and the one who doesn't do it, well they do it, now there is a team with a star where they have to shine to get the team forward. not Easy but it is Possible to do Something.

[Fiatless]

Leaving the team? I think the right word for this is dumped because when you look at the treatment that happened to some of the players who left it did not imply they were leaving PSG, but PSG themselves wanted them to leave.

Their poor performance is the result of their previous actions and they should be able to accept that by not blaming the players who have left.

PSG fans treated Neymar badly by their action in his residence. The Brazilian is a good player but he has so many issues with injuries which affect his performance negatively. Messi was signed to help the club win the Champions League, so the club had to dump him when they failed to win the prestigious trophy. I don't also blame the management of PSG for letting them go because they earn so much money and their performance was not encouraging. But PSG is just blinded by the dream of winning the UCL, winning any other trophy is a failure for the team, which is not right. The main problem now is that the performance of the club keeps depreciating even after the departure of these top players and Luis Enrique has not been able to fully maximize the quality of the players they have.    

[tusandii]

I agree with you, here inconsistency is still the main enemy for some clubs, so they struggle to compete strictly until the season is really over. Paris Saint Germain can probably be said to be one of the clubs that has a good level of consistency compared to other clubs. What they have achieved is inseparable from their financial capabilities and the players they have, yes maybe we all agree that Paris Saint Germain is a club that has the strongest squad compared to other clubs in Ligue 1.
We can see Lens, yes you said something right, last season they were strong, but this season the opposite is what they showed.

I remember someone said here that don't speculate too early when the remaining matches are still very far away and in the remaining matches there will still be many changes happening.
I am not defending the Lens club which is currently slumped at the bottom of the points table because it has lost its strong performance like the previous season but I still believe that Lens can immediately improve their performance to recover and show everyone that Lens only needs time to recover.
Comparing with PSG is very far at the moment and I also agree that PSG is still very stable and in fact PSG is still at the point where even though it is in 3rd place, PSG will surprisingly soon overtake all the clubs above it.

I don't really agree with that, I am not saying they are doing super good, but on a rebuild season like they are having, and even moving Mbappe to left again, they managed to beat Dortmund, Marseille, Rennes very easily, only game that was disappointing was Newcastle, which can happen and maybe if you want you can consider Nice game, but that was just tough luck and happens.

So, I do not think that they are doing that badly. On top of that nobody is that ahead of them anyway, so it's going to be quite obvious that the yare going to end up being good, and should be considered good overall. I know that it's going to take a while but it shouldn't be that much shocking in the end. I hope that they do well enough and should be making bigger approach to it one way or another. I think the best thing to do in this case would be just letting them be and betting on their games anyway, it will definitely bring in good results for you for sure.

Agree, PSG doesn't have a good awareness of players who contribute to the team, so in the end PSG maybe comply with fans which wishes to let Messi and Neymar leave. Because, for example, if PSG aware of the good contributions made by Messi and Neymar then of course, PSG could have prevented Messi and Neymar from leaving, because basically PSG had money. So yes, with PSG poor performance and results this season are certainly an impact that PSG should receive now. Moreover, with bad results like this, it seems very likely that PSG will no longer be able to keep Mbappe in the next transfer window. Because of course, Mbappe really wants to win lots of titles, and PSG is not the right team for Mbappe.

[Texac]

I don't even see it as a surprise performance. How can the horrible performance from PSG can be called as a surprise performance? PSG is even declining compared with last season. I don't wanna underestimate PSG but im talking about the reality if PSG was always too inconsistent in any game.
There have been also many rumors about dembele was not feeling confidence anymore in the club. He may leave from PSG soon along with mbappe caused by they are willing to join in new clubs.
Im willing to see those guys will able to get better clubs than PSG even though that if dembele was a new player in PSG right now. It's time for mbappe to get a new achievement for that.

PSG's performance in the loss to Newcastle wasn't bad, but they just failed to capitalize on opportunities to score. Moreover, Newcastle had a good defense when PSG built attacks, so even though PSG had several opportunities, the defense was still able to handle them. Of course that has benefited Newcastle, but that doesn't mean PSG doesn't have a chance.

PSG and Newcastle adopted different strategies throughout the match. PSG played very offensively and Newcastle played very defensively, this benefited Newcastle in preventing PSG from scoring goals and they also benefited because PSG did not concentrate on defending. But I'm sure PSG won't make the same mistakes when they play at home for their second meeting with Newcastle, so I don't think the defeat will punish them for the rest of the season.

What do you mean the performance of PSG was not bad against Newcastle United? They lost by 4 – 1. by definition that is a bad performance. Now you might say that PSG had amount of possession of the ball in that match. But let me ask you this, how many goals did they score with all that possession? They only had two shots on target. Playing offensive does not mean that they played well. in my opinion, the performance was truly horrible from PSG in that match.

But if we are talking about the match against Rennes then it's another story. The overall performance from PSG was good in this match. Maybe could have done better to keep a clean sheet. But that's alright, I guess.

[emrecemsan]

@emrecemsan

I personally do not like how the authority is managing PSG. I also do not like the authority of the country France, as well, but that's another story.

Anyway, the PSG authority thought that they could do anything with money. But obviously, that is not true. I don't know what they deserve to be honest. But one thing I will say that they are definitely did not deserve to do well with the squad where Mbappé had authority over other players. They have made a lot of mistakes. But bringing in the new coach was a step in the right direction. Now let's see if the coach Luis Enrique can actually make things better. But it will definitely take a lot of time. Patience is something that PSG does not have which they should.

Money doesn't guarantee success for any team indeed. Sometimes money really works for some teams to achieve great successes. For example we have a Manchester City example in hand. They have been doing amazing in the Premier League and they won the Champions League title finally as well.

However this is all up to the quality of the management of not only the players but also the team completely. As you said the authority doesn't know how to deal with PSG's problems right now. This makes things even worse for the team as a result. On paper this team should be able to be more competitive.

Players are only able to provide their best effort for a club when they have the necessary supporter encouragement. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi shared responsibility for the team's present situation, including making dubious signings and spending more than projected.Paris Saint-Germain deserves every negative outcome that has happened to them this season because they failed to recognize the presence of talented players. Les Parisiens booed Leo Messi and Neymar Jr every time they let the team down in imperative circumstances. Subsequently, the absence of these players have caused a decline in performance for the team.

Their attack line isn't all that bad right? But I think they will run into the same issues with a player like Dembele as Barcelona did. Barcelona let him go because Dembele has never been consistent for an entire season. He has always had some aches and pains and then they couldn't cure it and it frequently returned and again he was sitting on the bench. Then he didn't do well in the training sessions and so on and so forth. I really don't understand that PSG signed Dembele when they themselves had a similar experience with Neymar who also was injured all the time. I think Kolo Muani was a good transfer although I have no idea whether he really was worth the money, but he might need some time until he can play his best.

Dembele is not a very bad player but I don't think he'll last at PSG because of the injury crisis he's faced over years when he was at Barcelona, he's become an injury prone player and that's what I expected Luis Enrique to be worried about before bringing him into the team, tge €50m they spent in getting him would had helped in attracting players like Kudus that's currently at Westham or other youngsters out there doing great.

 PSG would had learnt from their experience with Neymar but they sold him to get another player that injury prone as well, however they got other interesting talents that would  help them in future the team finally recocer their form, however if Enrique wants to perform well this season he'll need Mbappe's help and play him on his rightful position.

[KTChampions]

But this is enough - to be better than your opponents. Bayern were terrible last year and won the “clumsily” title at the finish line, but in a few years no one will remember this and the title will be in history.
The prospects of PSG in the Champions League are doubtful, just like last year and the year before when, together with the star trio, they were knocked out in the 1/8 finals. But due to the randomness, it may turn out that this season will be more successful for them. At the moment, they need to qualify and then hope for luck in the draw.

I agree, the fact that they are only 2 points behind the leader, it shows that their "not doing so well" is still better than almost everyone, one more win and they are at the top and that should show you how good they are. I do not think that they are going to end up losing the league like many are claiming, I think they are going to do fine and we are not going to end up with anything crazy like that.

I know that it's going to be tough deal without a doubt, I do not think that they are going to win the title by like 20 points or something, but they are still by far the best team and even with all the things that has been going on with them, they still managed to keep it close so far and I bet they will take the lead soon.

Yes, when PSG "stalls", Ligue 1 becomes completely sad. At the moment, the team in first place has 62 percent of victories, and in second place it has 50 percent. Compared to other top leagues, this is a ridiculous indicator, given that PSG will rise and Monaco and Nice will fall, this indicator will be even more eloquent. Ligue 1, as always, is in the pocket of PSG, I think they can easily fully concentrate on the Champions League.

Their attack line isn't all that bad right? But I think they will run into the same issues with a player like Dembele as Barcelona did. Barcelona let him go because Dembele has never been consistent for an entire season. He has always had some aches and pains and then they couldn't cure it and it frequently returned and again he was sitting on the bench. Then he didn't do well in the training sessions and so on and so forth. I really don't understand that PSG signed Dembele when they themselves had a similar experience with Neymar who also was injured all the time. I think Kolo Muani was a good transfer although I have no idea whether he really was worth the money, but he might need some time until he can play his best.

Dembele is not a very bad player but I don't think he'll last at PSG because of the injury crisis he's faced over years when he was at Barcelona, he's become an injury prone player and that's what I expected Luis Enrique to be worried about before bringing him into the team, tge €50m they spent in getting him would had helped in attracting players like Kudus that's currently at Westham or other youngsters out there doing great.

 PSG would had learnt from their experience with Neymar but they sold him to get another player that injury prone as well, however they got other interesting talents that would  help them in future the team finally recocer their form, however if Enrique wants to perform well this season he'll need Mbappe's help and play him on his rightful position.

If they had learnt from experience and signature of Neymar then the signature of Dembele should be tagged wrong as it will take them nowhere.
I will not say that he is a bad player bit his level of greed is something I can't stop. Playing good football without passing means less. Dembele plays almost like Marcus Rashford another flops, he will do a good job but tike to pass you don't.
The price tag wasn't too much on him and he is worth that fee.

But this is enough - to be better than your opponents. Bayern were terrible last year and won the “clumsily” title at the finish line, but in a few years no one will remember this and the title will be in history.
The prospects of PSG in the Champions League are doubtful, just like last year and the year before when, together with the star trio, they were knocked out in the 1/8 finals. But due to the randomness, it may turn out that this season will be more successful for them. At the moment, they need to qualify and then hope for luck in the draw.

I agree, the fact that they are only 2 points behind the leader, it shows that their "not doing so well" is still better than almost everyone, one more win and they are at the top and that should show you how good they are. I do not think that they are going to end up losing the league like many are claiming, I think they are going to do fine and we are not going to end up with anything crazy like that.

I know that it's going to be tough deal without a doubt, I do not think that they are going to win the title by like 20 points or something, but they are still by far the best team and even with all the things that has been going on with them, they still managed to keep it close so far and I bet they will take the lead soon.

I had to quickly check what the numbers meant that you provided but yes you are right. However, for the sake of entertainment for the fans isn't it better this way? If PSG was once again at a 100% win rate it would already feel as if the league was over less than 10 games. That's what made this league often very boring. But I think it doesn't work that way when you say that PSG could fully concentrate on the Champions League. I believe that a team is always better off when they are challenged almost every week because they have one competitor who keeps up the pressure. When a team only feels pressure every few weeks, I think they are at a disadvantage compared to a team like Manchester City who feel pressure every week. They can cope with it differently and that is what is important in the decisive games in the Champions League. It is not like relaxation leads to better performance all the time.

I personally do not like how the authority is managing PSG. I also do not like the authority of the country France, as well, but that's another story.

Anyway, the PSG authority thought that they could do anything with money. But obviously, that is not true. I don't know what they deserve to be honest. But one thing I will say that they are definitely did not deserve to do well with the squad where Mbappé had authority over other players. They have made a lot of mistakes. But bringing in the new coach was a step in the right direction. Now let's see if the coach Luis Enrique can actually make things better. But it will definitely take a lot of time. Patience is something that PSG does not have which they should.

Money doesn't guarantee success for any team indeed. Sometimes money really works for some teams to achieve great successes. For example we have a Manchester City example in hand. They have been doing amazing in the Premier League and they won the Champions League title finally as well.

However this is all up to the quality of the management of not only the players but also the team completely. As you said the authority doesn't know how to deal with PSG's problems right now. This makes things even worse for the team as a result. On paper this team should be able to be more competitive.

so true but you need money to build the quality players. Money doesn't give guarantee but in fact, many clubs who have been spending a lot of money in the football keep dominating it. I can even mention some clubs like real madrid, bayern, city and many more. These clubs have spent so much money in rebuilding their clubs. They have got what they wanted by dominating the domestic league combined with international competition like UCL. In fact, money is something needed by the club to dominate the football competitions.
Money gives more probability for the club to winning the competition caused by having money will make it even much more easier. The club can buy any great players to be combined in the same team.
That's it. PSG was dominating league 1 once this club spent so much money.
