French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[bering]

Strasbourg will consider the match against Lille so important because their ambition want to finish at top 5 which is European zone and to secured their position they have to win for each matches remaining because if they lose or draw then their position possibly will be taking over by Nice and i think Strasbourg can get 3 points from this match because although Lille good for home matches but they weren't in the good shape after 4 consecutive no win

Lille started the match effectively against Strasbourg. Burak Yilmaz created a position in the second minute of the match. Lille could have started the game up 1-0. It's too early to talk yet, but last year's champions Lille are the favourite.They didn't have a good year this year, but they can close the league a bit better by getting good results.

[omgitsmehehe]

Just a draw was enough for PSG to lock up the title this season, because even though, for example, Marseille got 5 wins in a row and PSG got 4 defeats in a row, PSG's points are still higher. So, last night's match against Lens even though it only ended with the score 1-1, PSG are already title winners this season but the competition for positions below them at 2,3,4 and 5 at least for the European tournament places the competition will still happen until the end.

PSG has already become the champions of Ligue 1. And since the beginning of the season, we have been seeing the reign of PSG. Moreover, the squad of PSG was very strong this season. However, the main goal of PSG was to perform well in the Champions League. But they have not been successful this season.

For Second place in the points table, The fight between Marseille and Monaco is still ongoing. Monaco is 3 points behind Marseille. If Marseille lose points in their next matches, Monaco has a chance to move up to second place in the table.

With PSG current squad, there is no doubt of them winning the title, they have one of the best squad in football this season. Though they never achieved their goal for the season, their aim was to win the champions league but surprisingly they were eliminated from the champions league. am not surprised to see them win the ligue 1 title, cause they have what it takes.

Not only do PSG have a very good squad; they have assembled the most expensive in football history too and they need to find a balance so that they can comfortably challenge for the champions league trophy. Pochetinno now has enough time to find a balance to the team, improve the defensive options and help the PSG Squad to the next level

[safari88]

Perhaps the problem with PSG is that they have too good a team. Individually they are also many times better than Man City and Liverpool. But yes, if you don't function as a team, it won't be much. The last game there was little in it and there was no atmosphere at all in the team and also not in the stadium. The supporters don't really care if they become champions, they know that 9 out of 10 seasons they are whistling. They only want one thing and that is for PSG to win the champions league. Maybe time for a new coach.

It is not possible for Pochetinno to balance the PSG team. Throughout the season we have seen PSG's unstable performance. He could not stabilize the team. Often they have played poorly against a weaker team in Ligue 1. Moreover, their performance in the Champions League was not satisfactory. PSG management has the potential to hire more experienced coaches if they want to perform better next season. PSG should try to bring Zidane as coach.

With the composition of players who are on average world-class players, it's a fix that PSG's current weakness lies with the coach but i'm not sure if Zidane is fit to be PSG coach.  Next season PSG must be able to win the UCL, that is the dream of the PSG owner and also the fans.

[Pulsar77]

It is a good week for Monaco. Because they have made it to the fourth position thanks to Strasbourg's result against Lille. It was such a tight game against Lille and Lille managed to score the winning goal in the 87th minute. Strasbourg are still one of the impressive teams of this season of course but I can't overlook the fact that Monaco have improved themselves a lot. Their performance in the recent times has been very impressive. They are still on a winning streak and I wonder when it will end. They can promote to the CL also if they keep it up.

[Woodie]

Are these the last games for Mbappe? The championship is now won, now he can only become the top scorer of the season. Kylian Mbappe has 22 goals and Wissam Ben Yedder + Martin Terrier have scored 20 goals. So another title is still in for Paris this season. Now they can prepare for the next round and plan the squad to have a better chance to win the Champions League.

I guess the remaining games Mbappe and team have will be dedicated to trying to push for more goals for personal mileage and to secure the top scorer award but then again depending on what plans they have for these top players, these guys could actually not play the remaining matches.

Anybody looked at how the top is shaping up, do you guys see the current standings remaining as they are or these will change till the last games are played ??

An awesome goal by Messi and with PSG draw vs Lens tonight, PSG is officially the champions of Ligue 1, which was expected BTW since the beginning.

With Paris St-Germain being confirmed as champions, am hoping that players like Messi can give themselves the time to find what works for him before the start of the new season, because honestly we haven't seen the best of him since he left Barcelona. And with continued rumours of Mbappe leaving he certainly has to setup his game to be a reliable striker !

The fight now is for the European competitions spots and the relegation battle mainly

PSG are still babies in this department I wouldn't raise my hopes for them tbh unless they work on that porous defense!

He definitely needs to find what works for him but that is not something he could figure out all by himself. First they need to figure out a team that they could build, because if mbappe leaves then they will probably get someone else, and then after that we are talking about messi playing with them both on practice and in real games as well, even if friendlies. Then he will startp laying in all games he could, even if tired, so that he would get used to things. Then he would become good there as well.

Remember, Messi was great even when he was younger in Barcelona but he trained there from like 10 years old or maybe even before, so he had time to get used to that system, he didn't in PSG.

Monaco is in a great form right now. They have won all of their last five matches. I know that two of the matches were really easy for them to win because those matches were against the teams that are in the relegation zone. but still they had to win and get the results in their favour which they did.

Strasbourg Is going to have to face PSG in the next match and they are obviously not in the best of form right now and when they will go against PSG it will be really hard for them to win that match. PSG is officer going to finish their political leaders and probably will give chances to the rotation players and that might be an advantage for Strasbourg.

It is a good week for Monaco. Because they have made it to the fourth position thanks to Strasbourg's result against Lille. It was such a tight game against Lille and Lille managed to score the winning goal in the 87th minute.

They have good individual player, I don't think that any club beats them now and they have good team also. The problem  with psg is that they are the best among the weak clubs. If psg should find themselves in English Premier league and see competition every weekend, they will be more organised. What they play every weekend is against armature clubs and maybe once lille, Monaco or others will show little resistance.
The load of players in the club is too good to face the France league. There is need for other clubs to step up and buy quality players to make the whole league more interesting and very meaningful.
The fans are bored and tired of having one champion for a very long time.
The champions league dream can happen if they could have a coach like Zidane to organise the whole stuff

Yes, the truth is, Messi, his training was from the beginning in Barcelona, apart from that they fixed his growth problem, which was very rough, after that, Messi did not want to leave, I imagine that he was very rooted in Barcelona for everything that had happened achieved, however I think that PSG now represents his "job" and that he needs to perform even more than with Barcelona, it is no longer for what the Club gives him, but what he can contribute to the Club, for now the joy of being the first and winning, lifting a cup, but next season is already a clean slate, now he has to show what he was hired for.

It's true that PSG won the league before the season ended unfortunately today's match ended in a draw PSG should have won in celebration at home
By the way I just found out that Ligue 1 only got 2 champions league tickets and +1 ticket through the qualifying stage ?
I never noticed it before, today I checked the standings and was a little surprised.

Yeah Ligue 1 is inferior compared to EPL, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga so they have less spots in Champions League.
So far PSG got 1 ticket, Marseille will most likely get the second and the qualifier spot will be hard to guess right now especially that all of the candidates won their games today, well except Strasbourg. I would say Monaco > Rennes > Nice for the 3rd rank.

[Velvet78]

It wasn't an easy game for Marseille but they still succeeded in winning this one against Reims by 1-0. The winning goal came in the last moments of the game which was very valuable for them. They are six points ahead of Rennes still and they would most probably keep their position until the end of the season too. I don't think that Rennes can catch up with them and get past them in only four weeks. Marseille are trying to finish the season here at least as they can't compete with PSG at all.

Maybe because Reims is too defensive so Marseille only has a chance in minute 83. Marseille also has a 73% ball position with 700+ ball passing. I don't watch full the match, but when I look at the statistic, Marseille has dominated the game. Now, 6 points left between Rennes. If Marseille wins in the next game, they will get a ticket for a Champion league. And Congrat to PSG for the Ligue 1 title for this session.

Although Reims is currently in 13th position, it cannot be said that Reims is a weak team. Because Reims often makes big teams lose points,
previously even Reims managed to beat Lille and also Reims managed to win when playing away against Monaco. Even when Marseille faced
Reims at home, Marseille could only achieve a draw. So it's only natural that when Marseille faced Reims it seemed that Marseille had quite
a hard time beating Reims. But fortunately with the attacks carried out by Marseille on a massive scale, Marseille finally won the match,
although it had to be scored 7 minutes before the end of the match to ensure Marseille's victory.

So Marseille's difficulty to beat Reims was not only Reims who played defensively against Marseille, but Reims is also a tough team to beat.
Victory against Reims is very important for Marseille, to keep a distance from Rennes and Monaco, we will see if Marseille are able to play
consistently until the end of the season to make sure they are in second place, and can play in the Champions League next season.

PSG are crowned champions of Ligue 1 after their 1-1 draw against Lens in the parc de princes stadium. The team and fans are happy as they move closer to lift their Ligue 1 title very soon. Leo Messi strike a shot outside the box to give PSG the lead in the game but his goal was levelled by Jean close to stoppage time. It was a do and die affair for the away team. PSG boss, Mauricio Pochettino will do his best next season in the champions league because he has all the players it takes to win champions league next season. As for the Ligue 1 title, it's a normal cup for Paris Saint German.

Do you think Mauricio Pochettino is experienced enough for a platform like the Champions League? Sorry, I don't think so. Mauricio Pochettino had some of the best players in the world this season. There was an extraordinary squad. He has enough funds to build a strong team. Yet PSG's performance has disappointed us all. Their performance in the Champions League was very poor. So I don't think Mauricio Pochettino will be able to play well in the Champions League if he stays as PSG coach next season.

Mauricio Pochettino contract is not going to be renew according to some online news report revealed that he might be sacked thus there is no chance of being in charge of PSG in the next season UCL, the news also stated that Antonio Conte is their preferred candidate for the job infact the name of the purported rumored manager Zidane was not even mentioned. Thought PSG had won this season ligue-1 trophy however the club management is not happy about their exist from UCL despite the arrays of stars in the team, the need to win UCL trophy next prompted them to seek for a more experienced manager.
