French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[LUCKMCFLY]

I was also surprised by Mbappé's decision, that is, saying No to Real Madrid, really the sheikh should have offered him the fortune of his life, I think if he is capable of retaining Mbappé, then he is capable of retaining Messi and Neymar, as far as these players are concerned, they will be very popular after the world cup in Qatar, because they represent the best nations in the world of football, it would only be great if they had the Germans and the English, it is the perfect combination, because it would be the most comprehensive team of all, and in the French league it is the most complete.

I think Mbappé have got much salary on new contract with PSG and really not care with Real Madrid although success on champion league, Mbappé have get full power on PSG right now after many time news he tries how to kick coach and several player on PSG. Not easy for other player on PSG if Mbappé have get controlling about who will keep extended or have move from PSG team next season.

Yes, well the fact is that Mbappé at PSG will continue to grow, but note that Haaland changed teams, Lewa is considering playing for another team that many think will be Barcelona, in my opinion PSG has so much money that hopefully and not run out to be able to retain their players, although I don't know what happens with that team that from one moment to another when they lose, they lose everything that is most important, for my team it would be more complete if they hired a Haaland or even up to a CR7, which is something impossible, but since money does almost everything (clearly demonstrated with Mbappé) that the Sheikh has not been able to consolidate the dream team, what I like most about this is that the French league always gives What to talk about, for a few years now we hear about the French League, Bundesliga, PL, but before it was only the Italian and Spanish League that was most requested.

Zidane would suit PSG in my opinion, I don't think the situation is bad for him now and for the next few seasons.

PSG will dream of winning the Champions League again if they get a coach like Zidane. PSG has a lot of talented star players. But they do not have an experienced coach. As a result, their performance in the Champions League last season was poor. Zidane is suitable for PSG. But just for the money, Zidane will not take charge of any club where he has to follow Mbappe's direction.

Well regardless of what Zidane does is respectable for me, but if he manages to be at PSG, I take my hat off to the Sheikh, because taking Zidane is a guarantee of winning even the UCL, and everything that comes to PSG, I think that with a coach like him any team gets ahead.

Agree with what you said. Zidane is a very good coach for now even though he didn't coach last season but if you look at what he did before with Madrid, it would obviously be a big advantage if he was there and it's not impossible that they can get the Champions League too.
although there must be adjustments and adaptations but I feel that he is very easy to socialize there so this is not too much of a problem.
But until now the deal is still not there and this is what makes it difficult for PSG.

Zidane is indeed a coach who has a very good track record, especially when he coached Real Madrid. But that doesn't mean that if Zidane is at PSG, PSG will easily win the UCL title, because it seems that the UCL title is a curse for PSG . BTW, apart from Zinedine Zidane, there is also Christophe Galtier who is a candidate for PSG manager next season. Galtier managed to steal the public's attention after bringing OGC Nice to become champions in Ligue 1.

If so, then Mbappe's position has already become indecently significant. Maybe he has the audacity to continue to use his privileges without suffering and worsening sports results, but I think this state of affairs will put a lot of pressure on other players. And I don't know how stupid (or greedy haha) Zidane has to be to go to PSG where it's such an unhealthy situation.

He may be given the right to vote but the decision rests with the club's top brass. Mbappe could have suggested whatever he wanted to the club's top brass if it was really for the good of the team, but giving the right to decide on difficult matters like nominations for coaches makes no sense. He might only get the right to suggest based on his opinion, nothing more.

Zidane would suit PSG in my opinion, I don't think the situation is bad for him now and for the next few seasons.

These are your assumptions, but not a fact. No one knows how much voting power Mbappe has. Talk of Mbappe wanting Zidane to replace Poccetino began long before he (unexpectedly) accepted PSG's offer and turned down Real Madrid. I hope, after all, Zidane is smart enough to refuse PSG and strive for the French national team where he wanted. Given the results of Deschamps, there is something to work on  

[jakdanyel]

There is no need to question Zinedine Zidane's management so far that's for certain. He has a really amazing history with Real Madrid which is full of Champions League titles at the same time. When we consider this fact, PSG must definitely prioritize him rather than other managers. Zidane can lead this team to the victory in the Champions League. I don't mention the Ligue 1 because they are already the highly dominant team in this league. In this situation, their main goal is to win the Champions League title.

The schrodingers cat situation with Zidane is ab it of a confusing one. Yes he coached Madrid to titles all the time he played, and won UCL three times in a row, and all of that are correct stuff. However, he managed only 3 seasons and even though he was amazing using that time, he didn't managed any before or after. Which means that we need to see a great sample to say if he is as good as we think or not.

Maybe if he managed real Madrid since those days, they wouldn't get another but ancelotti got it? Who knows, is there a guarantee that it would happen? Or if he goes to PSG today, maybe they won't even win the league let alone UCL, is there a proof? We just need to wait and see.

I don’t think that Zidane will guarantee instant champions league at PSG, because he’ll require at least two full seasons to build the team in his image, but PSG owner’s are impatient and he’ll probably be sacked before that. Lastly it’ll be interesting to see him perform at PSG as it’s a weaker league, and Champions League is difficult hence we should not expect much from Zidane especially when it comes to champions league.

After those three seasons there was another season and a half at Real Madrid when he won the Li Liga but failed to win the Champions League. No coach can guarantee a Champions League win, but it's safe to assume that a certain list of coaches have more serious chances than everyone else and Zidane is one of those who are included in this group.

No coach can guarantee to win the Champions League title. Last season, Manchester City, Liverpool, and PSG were among the favorites for the Champions League title. But Real Madrid won the title. If Zidane is PSG's coach, PSG's chances of winning the Champions League may increase, but no one can guarantee that PSG will win the Champions League.

But with his leadership I think there is more hope when Zidane is there indeed this is not a guarantee but it is not wrong to have high expectations for Zidane's cold hand.
Galtier does have a pretty good performance increase because apart from bringing Nice to be in the top 5, I think this is still not enough to give big hype to PSG.

[DukeNickle]

Zinedine Zidane is wanted for the PSG manager position so much because people believe in him to lead the team to the Champions League title. They believe in him because his history with Real Madrid was very bright. He had many Champions League titles with them and it was one of the great periods in Real Madrid history for sure. PSG squad is also good enough for Zidane to make them the champions. PSG haven't had any problem with their squad so far. The main issue has been related to management.

PSG coach candidate next season is increasingly becoming a speculation that is often discussed at this time, previously zidane was a strong candidate to coach PSG next season, but now a new name has emerged which has also enlivened the coach transfer market, now besides Zidane there some new name that is speculated to be coaching PSG next season, mourinho, allegri and Galtier are said to be Pochettino successors, but from several names circulating right now, of course Zidane is one of the prospective coaches who is very suitable for PSG compared other coaches, seeing the increasing number of names of potential coaches appears now, it will be even more interesting to wait for who will become PSG coach next season and I personally predict if Zidane will get that place.

PSG used to be my favorite team back when Beckham was there, but I can't stand Neymar so it's difficult to root for them at the moment. Zidane to PSG would be awesome. He is a legend and would definitely add something to the team, tactics/chemistry, something, but they seem to lack a certain drive or care at the moment. I wish PSG had more competition to maybe get the best out of those players. Although I'm saying this as somebody who doesn't watch a whole lot of French football, so I know very little about it.

Agree with this statement nothing is sure any result can happen on game day and any team can win just need some good skills with hard work and luck because these all can bring success to any team even Zidane is very good at coaching but sadly he has done this only with Real Madrid with no other team so if someone feeling after his arrival PSG can win Champions League title it's just a review nothing is sure still he can be lost or he can win its all results available for him with this team.

But if PSG is going to have Zidane then surely it's a good deal as this can bring some good changes but they also need to give some time for having better results because maybe he stay here and then bring some good winning combination which brings some success for this team because all things need time for having better results as we have at Liverpool with Klopp.

[jakdanyel]

The most unlucky team of the previous season were really Monaco. Above all else, they were one of the best teams that had an incredible form before the end of the season. They were on a fascinating winning streak and it was going to help them end the season at the second position in the standings also if they won the last match too. They were nearly defeating Lens but the goal came in the last moments of the match disappointed Monaco and they had to join the Champions League by qualification round instead of group stage. But I still appreciated their huge comeback in this season too as they didn't start well first.

PSG has a lot of money. And PSG management is ready to spend more money to win the Champions League title. If Zidane wants, PSG management is ready to create enough funds to bring in the player of Zidane's choice. There are also plenty of star players in the PSG team. As we have seen in previous seasons, the only reason for PSG's poor performance is the inexperience of their coaches. Despite consistently poor performances, the coach did not apply any new tactics. At the same time their formation has remained unchanged. Since almost all PSG players are very talented, it is expected that PSG will be stronger if an experienced coach like Zidane takes over PSG.

it looks like Monaco will have a new striker...

AS Monaco are "fixed" on the idea of signing Liverpool attacker Takumi Minamino (27), who could be available for as little as €15m

https://twitter.com/GFFN/status/1537476330006188039?cxt=HHwWjsC4yfCkm9YqAAAA

Minamino is a potential striker who rarely plays at Liverpool because Klopp prefers the trio of Diaz, Salah, and Mane. By moving to Monaco, I'm sure the future will be bright. Besides that, last season, Monaco managed to finish in 3rd place. This will heat up the competition for the League 1 trophy with PSG and another great team next season.

That is what I tried to say. I mean if Zidane can't get the UCL title to them, then Pochettino didn't neither, so what's the difference? If it is the possibility of Zidane bringing PSG  that title, then Pochettino may have the same possibility as well? We do not know. So at hand, to me at least, we have the "get zidane and possibly get UCL" and also "keep pochettino and possibly get UCL" as well.

Just because he didn't get it so far, doesn't mean that he can't get it this year, there is no guarantee that he won't get it. This is why it makes no sense to convince a coach and maybe like pay double what you are paying right now, for the same possibility, because to me, it is just the same possibility for both of them.

About Minamino, I can indicate my opinion like that his best times were with Leipzig. It has been two seasons since he left Leipzig and he can't find many chances in Liverpool squad obviously. I think he should prefer a loan move or maybe even a return to Leipzig. But I don't see that the Leipzig possibility is strong now. So he should go for the Monaco opportunity now. Considering Monaco's current wingers, I think Minamino can find a place to himself in the starting eleven if he works hard.

To be sure, Zidane is the most appropriate choice for PSG as a replacement for Pochettino next season. I have no doubts about Zidane's coaching capacity and ability, he is the best manager ever with a good collection of titles. Zidane won a lot at Real Madrid but of course we can't fully expect that he is capable of doing that with PSG as well. But at least PSG have chosen the right manager to handle their luxury squad next season if Zidane really manages to sign that contract.
