French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Farma]

A draw can certainly still make PSG quite relaxed in facing the competition in Ligue 1 because PSG can still have additional points even though not in full and what you said is also quite reasonable if we see how tight the match schedule is at the moment. In addition, PSG has also never lost in Ligue 1 this season even though they have played thirteen matches and that can certainly be a clear conclusion that PSG is still quite strong in Ligue 1 even though in other competitions such as the UCL PSG cannot look strong.

PSG got another draw against Auxerre and this is the second time PSG has been lucky to get a draw even though the standings do not affect it. This is an unfavorable condition and maybe as we discussed that the tight match schedule makes PSG start to have difficulty appearing consistently in maintaining victory. If it continues then it will affect PSG's performance in the competition even though they still have a much greater chance.

PSG's next match will face Salzburg in the Champions League and this is an important match for them to keep their chances of qualifying for the next round and maybe this season will be a little more difficult for them in the Champions League.

PSG is not under pressure from other teams to disrupt their position in the standings so the draw is not a surprise, PSG's inconsistency since last season so I am not surprised by this.
Maybe the tight schedule is the reason PSG was unable to win the match against Auxerre but that also cannot be used as a reference to assess the performance of the PSG team to face the next match in the Champion League against Salzburg, it will be an important match for PSG to be able to qualify for the next round and they really need a win in the next match.

I was surprised that PSG could not beat Auxere even though they were a promoted club and what was more surprising was that they were only able to get a draw without scoring a goal even though PSG had many shots on goal but none of them managed to convert into goals, Auxere goalkeeper Donovan Leon was able to make 11 saves I admit he was extraordinary in holding off many attacks from PSG players, Auxere were of course very happy even though they did not win they were able to hold PSG to a draw.

It's not something that should surprise you. PSG aren't a club that you can rely on to always win games. After they were beaten by m
Bayern Munich in the champions league, that's how they've gone on to draw their games and this is to teams that they should ordinarily slaughter.
 I think PSG are in bigger problems than we can imagine and maybe they feel that because they are in the 1st place with 8 points gap over Marseille, they can still recover and probably win the league but from the looks of things, I don't think they will be able to make it being that Mbappe is no longer with them and they have no winning mentality.

If not that the French League 1 is not that competitive as compared to Premier league,  Spanish La Liga and the Italy serie A, PSG wouldn't have been topping their league table by now after that Kylian Mbappe final departure to Madrid, here they has PSG as the team that keeps dominating each season even when they're not in their best form. French Ligue 1 just only have fewer teams challenging PSG in their Ligue title.  Look at what happened in their encounter in the Champions League game.

PSG must be able to save the energy of their important players for the Champions League for a fairly clear reason, namely to be able to win the Champions League and have a chance to qualify for the playoffs in the Champions League this season. While in Ligue 1, PSG only have to keep themselves from losing because if they can only share points in several matches in Ligue 1, it will not harm them as the current leader of the Ligue 1 standings. Moreover, PSG has also succeeded in creating a points gap with the teams in Ligue 1 this season so that it no longer burdens PSG to get a draw in the current match as happened at Auxerre's home ground.

I can't really tell if they do underrate teams or something because they should be the unstoppable team in that league, in as much as they win the title every season they still draw and lose to smaller teams. If it has been clubs like Lyon, Marseille, Monaco, Lille and the other stubborn headed team I'd understand but Auxerre? Is a very disappointing game by PSG.
Using 8 point to top the table is not enough when it hasn't gotten to the second half of the season, PSG still have games that will make them drop point and I'd like to see PSG be in the state at which Manchester City are in maybe that would add up some level of seriousness. And weather Mbappe is their or not they are still going to be the way they are now, the club is just annoying.

We are used to seeing that PSG are the only team in France League who are regularly beaten and no other team has any chance of beating PSG and securing the France League title. It has been going like this for the past few seasons and it will be like this in this season as well and there is a high probability that it will be like this in the coming seasons as well. PSG have built their empire in such a way that no other team can overtake them. PSG dropped points in a few matches earlier this season which led some to talk that PSG's France League chapter might end here but PSG proved once again that they will never miss out on the France League title. In this season there was a possibility for other teams to overtake PSG because compared to other seasons PSG team is weakest in this season but if they can't this season they won't be able to in next seasons because next season PSG will make their team stronger.

That's mainly because of the finances as mentioned, they just have way more than anyone else, and that's why they keep getting the best players they can. They also use the league as a way to improve their squad as well, if any player in the league shines, they can just pay whatever and get that player, making them much better and that's the most important aspect of having money. That way, they are not just making sure that they are getting better by acquiring a better player, but they are also making the other team a bit worse by costing them a player as well.

You may say "but they paid for the player, wouldn't the other team just buy another good player?" but time has shown that most teams either do not spend the entire budget they made, as in they make 50 million in income, but spend 30 instead type of deal, or they end up getting bad players as well, very few gets good players and those usually end up getting poached too so it never ends up being a full good squad.

Yes everything depends on money, the club has a lot of financial support due to which they can take any decision at any moment for the better performance of the club. With the amount of money PSG has and the mindset they have to spend money, if any other team in the league had that kind of money and mindset to spend money, they would be competing with PSG. But alas there are no other teams in this league who can spend money or fight for the title. PSG has figured out the right strategy to win the local league title so now it is very difficult to beat them in the local league and we can say it is impossible considering the past performances. If in the following seasons PSG form a weak team, on the contrary, other teams form a stronger team, there may be an opportunity

Moreover, PSG has also succeeded in creating a points gap with the teams in Ligue 1 this season so that it no longer burdens PSG to get a draw in the current match as happened at Auxerre's home ground.

I agree that PSG are now playing with an eye on the Champions League matches. Because they have a comfortable handicap in Ligue 1, which can allow them to play such matches, although given how they played in attack, I thought they would be able to score a goal. Obviously, now all their attention will be focused on the Champions League, because their position there is very bad and among the few remaining matches they still have to play City, where they also may not get points.

[Lida93]

I saw the news today that the owners of PSG are ready to sell the club, they are ready to do it as soon as they receive a good offer. Are they really ready to give up without achieving their goal of winning the Champions League? But what can I say, maybe they are just tired of investing money in the team, the constant pursuit of expensive players, and PSG is losing its popularity on the world stage, and in the Champions League they are now below the playoff zone, which no one expected.

So far the club has not come up with any official statement for their decision and nobody knows the reason why they want to sell the club, nobody can tell if it's a financial issue like that of Olympic Lyon but even if the club is being sold then PSG wouldn't be the first to experience such because several years ago former Thailand prime minister, Thaksin shinawatra (cited.) acquired Manchester city and later sold it to the Qatari investors who made the club what it is today, but whatever the reason behind this new development is am still convinced that it is not financial problems that is propelling them to sell the club.

In the French Soccer League today, in the LOSC vs Brest team match, the LOSC team performed exceptionally well in this match. I expected the Brest team to play well in today's match, but the Brest team scored 1 goal. The LOSC team won today's match by scoring 3 goals. The LOSC team won this match very easily due to their outstanding performance from the beginning to the end of the game.

I think almost every season their focus is on the Champions League, because everyone knows that they really want to be champions in the Champions League, but as long as they try for that long they continue to feel failure which makes them lose their mentality in the Champions League. Not only that, it even affects the trust of many people in them, where more people doubt them to be the best in the Champions League. they have also played with the best players like Messi, Mbappe and Neymar, but they still failed. Their best achievement in the Champions League was only being able to step into the final, and there they failed.

I personally am not surprised by the draw that PSG got in this match, because in the previous match they also got a draw, it can even be said that the team is weaker than Auxerre. When playing against Nantes, PSG was not only unable to maintain their lead, but they also had to concede a goal from Nantes which made the match end in a draw.

I don't know what happened to PSG lately, but getting a draw in two consecutive matches is a bad result for PSG. Especially if you look at their performance when playing in the UCL, where PSG is threatened not to qualify for the next phase.

Back to the French league 1, but fortunately PSG has collected a lot of points, and is far behind the team below it. So the draw achieved in 2 consecutive matches, did not make the team get knocked out of the top of the standings.

The LOSC team won this match very easily due to their outstanding performance from the beginning to the end of the game.

Lille 3-1 victory has shown their dominance quite well so far when playing at home, their very impressive performance in the match actually made them manage to maintain a record of 10 unbeaten matches in Ligue 1 so far, from the beginning of the match Lille was able to perform quite well and solidly until the end of the match, although Brest was able to apply pressure with a counter-attack scheme, but that it was not enough to destroy Lille tightly guarded defense By Ribeiro, Gudmundsson and also Mahdi who appeared very disciplined, the victory over Brest further solidified their position in the 3rd tier of the current Ligue 1 standings.

PSG is still with their best game they avoid defeat that's why they can't be removed from the top of the standings even though they have drawn in the last two weeks, Marseille is too far away in points with PSG but at least little by little they can approach PSG even though several other clubs are shadowing Marseille such as LOSC, AS Monaco who both have 26 points, at least Marseille can get away from the two clubs if they don't want to be removed from second place in the French League standings.

A match between Monaco and Toulouse is coming up in a few minutes, and it is going to be a tough and interesting match as both teams are in good form. At this moment, I can't really say which team will be the favorite to win, as both teams' performances seem to be at the same level. Even from their head-to-head statistics, both teams always have good chances of beating each other, whether in an away or home game. Recently, Monaco beat Toulouse in an away game. However, despite that, I wouldn’t confidently say Monaco may win just because of the home advantage, given the records I've seen.

I was surprised that PSG could not beat Auxere even though they were a promoted club and what was more surprising was that they were only able to get a draw without scoring a goal even though PSG had many shots on goal but none of them managed to convert into goals, Auxere goalkeeper Donovan Leon was able to make 11 saves I admit he was extraordinary in holding off many attacks from PSG players, Auxere were of course very happy even though they did not win they were able to hold PSG to a draw.

Auxerre performances is not that bad their performance is average currently, and that is why they are among the top ten teams in the table. So, I was not too surprised that they managed to draw with PSG, even making the game a goalless draw.

One thing I observed is that PSG did not put in much effort during the game. This could be because of their upcoming Champions League match, where they have been struggling with poor results. They need to prepare thoroughly and try to win their next match in the Champions League to have a chance to progress further.

This team seems to really need a reliable player in terms of scoring goals, because the available players are not able to answer the team's needs. PSG always plays offensively, they also always have many opportunities. Like in the match against Auxerre, besides dominating the match, PSG released a total of 24 shots. Unfortunately, none of them were converted into goals. If PSG had a qualified striker as a finisher, this team would certainly be quite scary for the opposing teams. Not only in Ligue 1, but also in the European stage. As for Marseille, they will play away tomorrow. Their opponent is not a strong team, theoretically Marseille should be able to smoothly win. While Manaco returned to winning ways after defeating Toulouse at their home ground, so currently Marseille's position has been shifted again by Monaco. Interestingly, these two teams are quite exciting to overtake each other while approaching the points owned by Paris Saint-Germains.

PSG actually already has reliable players at the moment, but for some reason in yesterday's match they didn't seem to have much confidence. We can see that Bradley Barcola is currently reliable but yesterday he couldn't score even though he had a good chance.
Regarding the need for a striker, I disagree. Because PSG has relied on strikers for too long before, ending in failure in other competitions and it's better with a player formation like this so that PSG can rise with teamwork performance without relying on strikers like before.
The only hope is that the coach is able to rotate players perfectly so that they can get the best performance.

There's this pattern I have noticed with PSG which id other teams such as Marseille and LOSC can adopt maybe they will turn out strong contenders, Monaco aswell can fit in if they get this done, at the beginning of the season they make sure to win their early games and accumulate so many points that in the nearest future even if they get to lose games they still have points to fall back at without having to really bother about their poor performance within that period, so for others if they can follow in same pattern they will create a competition that every slightest loss will keep PSG at a disadvantage and give them some edge to probably getting ahead and the title race will become even tougher and Interesting.

Paris Saint-Germain's draw away from home in the last match is actually a bad thing. However, sometimes things like this happen in the French league. Teams can prevent Paris Saint-Germain from scoring by playing very defensively. Because the most dominant team in the French league is Paris Saint-Germain. Playing defensively against them and trying not to let them score can lead to such results. Monaco is getting closer to them, Marseille is getting closer to them. They need to continue their winning streak as soon as possible.

Paris Saint-Germain's goal scorers were ineffective in the last match but they have one of the best goal scorers in the French league. They were not effective against Auxerre but that doesn't mean they won't be effective in other matches. I'm sure they won't make the same mistakes they made in this match in future matches. The manager will prepare himself for their development. He will take care of the players one-on-one and show them the tactics needed to open up more comfortable spaces in the next matches. At the end of the league, I think Paris Saint-Germain will be the champion.

I can't imagine them not being able to score even 1 goal with the many chances they created, but that's football when you can't take advantage of your chances, then you can't score goals. But I also see that they were also unlucky in this match, why? because with so many chances they created they couldn't do anything in the final finishing.
I have no problem with Paris Saint Germain's front line, because in terms of goal productivity, they are the team with the most status in scoring goals, so I think they were very unlucky in this match.
