French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

Quite interesting to leave Palmer out of the conference league squad, I do get that they want to rest him, and they do have a huge squad as well so they do not really need to do anything crazy with their squad and overload them, they can relax the way they want. But at the same time, we are looking at Palmer who could be their very best player, couldn't they find someone else to rest and make him play there?

I think Conference league is important, and they will have a chance to put him back in after the group stages, but I would say making him play there, and resting him on FA cup games would make more sense. This looks like a mistake to me, but of course I am not a manager so what do I know, maybe they have a better understanding of the situation.

Are you talking about Chelsea dropping Cole Palmer from their Europa Conference League squad?
I think you've entered the wrong room, this isn't the place to discuss the Europa Conference or the Premier League where Chelsea compete. As per the title above, this thread was created to discuss matters related to Ligue 1.

Not only now the PSG be favorite to win Ligue 1 even before the league starts, they have become a strong candidate to become champions this season, so I think there is nothing surprising about their current statistics including consecutive wins at the start of the season, PSG has a squad that is very capable and they are still better than the current rival teams, the quality of the squad and also the financial differences have been a strength for PSG to be able  their to easily win Ligue 1, but unfortunately the greatness that PSG have in Ligue 1 is not comparable to their performance and mentality in the Champions League which very bad so far, to be honest if we talk about Ligue 1 of course we can't deny that they are the strongest candidate to be champhionsip, while other teams are currently only competing for a place in the UCL, but for this season Champions League, I personally don't expect much from PSG.

 I get what you're saying about PSG being favorites to win Ligue 1, they definitely got a strong squad and all that. But you know, their performance in the Champions League hasn't been all that great, so I ain't expecting much from them this season. Gotta see how it plays out though, never know what could happen in football, am I right?

PSG's squad may not have any big-name star players. But the bonding between the players in PSG's squad is very strong. So if the players of PSG can continue this kind of performance then there is a possibility of this team performing well in the Champions League as well. Due to the good understanding between the players, the team played well in all three matches in Ligue 1 and managed to win each match by a big margin. PSG got an experienced coach like Luis Enrique. Luis Enrique is also an experienced coach for the Champions League platform. So I think PSG has a great chance to do well in Champions League matches this season.
