French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[mia_houston]

In the French cup, PSG won the match by a wide difference as expected and won the Super Cup. In this match, all the stars of PSG almost scored. Neymar scored two goals from set pieces, used this advantage very skillfully in both free kicks and penalty shootouts and was able to turn it into a goal. I expect a better PSG team compared to last season.

Neymar slick appearance in that match can be proof that Neymar is still not finished at this time, the two goals that were created in that match are extraordinary in my opinion,  especially after the last few days Neymar has been rumored to be involved in disputes with fellow teams, I hope that Neymar will stay be at PSG next season because after all Neymar is a good player and also has a fairly high instinct of scoring goals so far, with this victory, PSG won the French Super Cup for the 11th time in history.

PSG's game under coach Christophe Galtier looks so different and it looks better both in possession and in attack, the big win against Nantes is proof of that and apart from that Messi and Neymar's game was highlighted and they did it very well and with that. I am sure that next season Neymar will prove himself to be even better because there is a lot of negative news about him.

Looks different games style showed by PSG under new manager Christophe Galtier than Pochettino when defeating Nantes 4-0, specially winning with bigger score without Mbappe on team and looks  Christophe Galtier can controlling all player and not confused when important player get injury or absent. Neymar looks as favorite player under Christophe Galtier and will has chance to be penalty taker after last match against with Nantes Christophe Galtier give him for penalty kick and Neymar success scoring goals trough penalty.

PSG's performance in the last few matches seems quite stable to me. However, the strength of a team cannot be judged by the performance in these friendly matches. However I would say PSG's gameplay has changed. They are applying new match tactics. Christophe Galtier is still experimenting with the PSG team. He will probably continue this experiment in the starting few matches of Ligue 1. If he can create a good strategy for PSG then PSG will definitely do well in the Champions League next season.

PSG main target right now is to get their first champions league trophy after failing to win it all this time, the champions league trophy is the reason PSG have budgeted a lot of money to buy star players who have been the world best players, for the Ligue 1 trophy indeed there can be no doubt that PSG is the ruler who often dominates the league and of course there is no doubt that next season the Ligue 1 trophy will still belong to PSG.

Yeah the main target with signing star players is for the Champions trophy I already realized, unfortunately last season Sergio Ramos rarely played due to injury, but now he will perform optimally under Galtier tutelage hopefully their health is good so they can go smoothly to trophy. Every match will be difficult in the Champions League, when the core squad gets injured.

PSG's atmosphere under Galtier's control is different, it's not only Neymar who looks stunning but Sergio Ramos too, I'm very impressed with the goal he (Sergio Ramos) scored against Nantes, it was his third goal during his time with PSG, this season he will definitely look more stunning again.

There are quite a few differences between PSG's gameplay of last season and the current gameplay. Bonding between players was poor in previous seasons. I have not seen them play with any specific match strategy. The defenders' performance was even poorer. But the PSG team looks pretty stable this season. If Mbappe, Messi and Neymar are not injured, PSG will be stronger than ever. And they can consistently perform well.

PSG squad is very stable this time, although there are slight rumors about Neymar and mbappe. btw, Galtier really knows what to do with the PSG squad this season, as evidenced by him, not including Wijnaldum in the PSG core squad. Wijnaldum only weighs on PSG and I think his departure to Rome is a good thing.

Leo Messi is in pursuit to break Dani Alves prime record as the most decorated player. Once again he have another titles to his gallery and still aiming to get more and the hunger for more titles on his mind. He was the man of the match yesterday against Nantes and did several attacking and possession of the ball. Leo Messi is highly respected and looked up to by most upcoming stars in football and the Argentine is catching up with age. However, I think there's still one last world cup for him to participate in.

He is still very much needed now despite his age but indeed when it comes to experience it is clear he has something more than some of the players there.
Sergio will probably still be in the same role as before I think unless Galtier has more fun for this player.

[emrecemsan]

Messi and Neymar started with goals. There is a feeling inside me like they both will show much better performances in this season. It is crucial for the success of the team also of course. Mbappe can't carry the team always. They need to be complete as a team to achieve the titles they aim. I don't wait for any surprise in the Ligue 1 this season. The Champions League part is the one I'm curious about the most. Galtier's choices will be followed closely and we will see if this move for PSG is good or not.

winning the champions league will not be an easy task, the champions league has great teams and with that it becomes something much more difficult to win, that's why I think teams cannot set goals like: "we have to win the champions " or hire a lot of good players thinking that they will win the champions league, these kind of plans don't end well. they need to be patient and not have too much optimism about the champions league. about neymar and messi, i think that in neymar's case he must have realized that if he doesn't try too hard the management won't like him and he will have to leave PSG

He is 35 years old and I think this will be the last world cup he will participate in. I do not think that Messi will continue his active football life until the age of 39, of course, I could be wrong. For some reason I feel like this world cup will be the last for Messi. Argentina wants to win the cup, but their opponents are not easy teams. If Messi wants to win this trophy, he must also distribute all the concentration to his teammates.

Nantes wasn't the one they were after. But the idea that Neymar could play this well again matters. There were discussions about him leaving not too long ago and they managed to do something that is very well by keeping him, if they do not change their mind then they will be very happy. Neymar is a superstar and he can pull a rabbit out of a hat when needed be and he is going to help them do a lot of that later in the season when it matters.

Ligue 1 is not a problem I agree, but UCL will not be "that" difficult anymore now that they know what they can do and they have that amazing team they built last year playing for a while together and seeing how it is working.

Yes, in fact I think that one of the players with the most ego there is Mbappé, and that Real Madrid did not like at all that he said no, I just hope that PSG will not underestimate the value as a "person" that Mbappé may have having chosen them and not Real Madrid, I know that Real Madrid is interested in players with a lot of youth and they do not take much into account when it comes to removing them when they reach a certain age or replacing them, the sheikh had to have offered him a lot of money to stay there, and I hope that it was worth it for Mbappé, so as not to stagnate in his career as one of the best in the world.

Now this has happened and Mbappe is also willing to be at PSG with a very long contract and of course with the authority as a player who has the power to do things for the club according to his wishes
In this case there is nothing more to say apart from seeing what PSG and Mbappe can come up with next season.

Well, I think that Wijnaldum has not been able to take advantage of it and get its maximum potential, in PSG there are many world-class players and they are quite famous, we have Messi, Mbappé, Neymar, among others who can be hired, for me Wijnaldum needs to have more minutes game, he can't show anything that he can give, I don't think he can be overshadowed by them either, I think PSG shouldn't let him go, sometimes these types of players solve a difficult game even above the famous stars that they are, Real Madrid is an example.

It's difficult for Wijnaldum to get playing time there because regardless of what you said there are a lot of capable players there and he has to be able to compete with those players if he wants to be given the chance, but obviously it's something difficult for him.

I think Mbappé was fooled by the big amount of money he was offered, this is something I don't know if it's right or wrong, but I think the player had to decide how much he could have achieved at another club, for now I also like to see that Mbappé is a rival of great players who are very good, I hope to see a great match against City in the UCL, I think that PSG will have a good rival like Monaco, this team may be giving a lot to talk about, and it is a good time for another team to start giving PSG problems and the French league becomes much more interesting, the level of French football has been very high and I think they are getting better and better.

I think that keeping Neymar is the best thing, for me Ney can do something good, he is also with the thorn that nobody believes in him, it seems to me a good move for PSG to keep him, I know that he is a player who can do many things, a lot of theater, but he is a very good player, sometimes with his theater he makes me confuse, if in fact they hit him very hard or not, but this player wants everyone's respect, next to Messi and Mbappe he has to show that He deserves to be in one of the best teams in the world. also something tells me that in this world cup, he will be able to get rid of the thorn, and be careful if Brazil wins the world cup, because he said he wanted to retire.

This season might be a really crucial season for Mbappe. I mean that PSG need to find a way to win the Champions League somehow. Otherwise maybe Mbappe would even think of leaving and joining Real Madrid this time even though he is making crazy money here now. It is just a prediction of course and I can't fully trust it though. Because his salary is too much that it would be hard for Mbappe to give up on that as long as Real Madrid don't offer a close amount to that.

I think yesterday's incident suffices to say that Mbappe is more concerned with money than achievement. Lol. Because if he really wanted achievement, then he wouldn't waver even when faced with a lot of money. But what happened he instead chose to stay with PSG. Indeed it is her right to decide where she will stay, but I am a little disappointed with that.

Real madrid cannot be interested in Mbappe again, have you forgotten how hurt Madrid were when it looked so certain Mbappe was coming to their club, but at the last moment he changed his mind because of a few phone calls from prominent people and what psg offered him in terms of salary and other benefit.

Real madrid president openly criticized Mbappe saying he only remained in psg because of the money they gave to him, Mbappe is going to stay in psg, he can't leave with that kind of wages, no team will ever want to pay him that, only if he can agree to cut his pay down, but i am sure that he will stay, it doesn't matter if psg deliver the champions league or not, it is more about business and money now.

Neymar has become an important thing for this game, He shows us he is still on PSG until next year, and the people are happy especially in this match Neymar also becomes a person who mans of the match, He created a beautiful free kick and His assist to Messi is still characteristic of neymar quality. So we have no doubt, that a new coach is capable to make PSG get the title again or more like the Champion league title.

[Kayeshlyn]

Igor Tudor, Marseille's new coach, and his team are under increased tension due to Tudor's tactics of refusing to negotiate with his team. However, Tudor will meet with his players today in a bid to ease tensions. While the club's management has offered to sell some players who do not fit Tudor's terms, staff estimate that only 80% to 90% of the squad are following Tudor's ideas.

OM chose Tudor in part because of its discipline, which is why Dimitri Payet has requested a meeting between the team and president Pablo Longoria. However, Longoria has not responded to his request.

Yes, we are presented with a refresher from what Paris Saint Germain did in yesterday's match. Some players have shown that they have quality and deserve to be kept. It would be nice if they could maintain that, especially if they were able to compete for the Champions League, surely that would be even more exciting for PSG fans.

Fesatmas, let me tell you two things; firstly you may not post consecutively in one thread less than 24 hours as it is against the rules and secondly; this is a French Ligue 1 thread not a Premier League thread. The solution is to merge your two posts and maybe have to edit the second post to keep it off topic.

Ligue 1 will officially start this week with Lyon vs Ajaccio are the two teams that will compete for the opening match of the 2022/2023 season. Lyon are favorites to win that match, I'm sure because Ajaccio are a promoted team this season.

[OcTradism]

Neymar has become an important thing for this game, He shows us he is still on PSG until next year, and the people are happy especially in this match Neymar also becomes a person who mans of the match, He created a beautiful free kick and His assist to Messi is still characteristic of neymar quality. So we have no doubt, that a new coach is capable to make PSG get the title again or more like the Champion league title.

This season is important for many star players because they will have the World Cup in December 2022. A few months left until the World Cup and they don't want to miss it or playing not at their best.

They can change clubs every season, at least have chance to do it but with World Cup, it is one chance every four years and sometimes their national team can not be qualified to join too. In a career of one player, it is only 4 to 5 times to join World Cup so not many chances to be missed.

Neymar might leave PSG in the next season but not this one or at least after the World Cup. It will be good enough for Neymar if he completes this season with PSG by a Champions League title. After that he can leave PSG successfully.
