French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[LUCKMCFLY]

Monaco team is looking amazing this season they faced a really good team and they managed to beat them at home the first half was balanced but the second one was entirely for monaco they are showing real promise for this season.

Yes, Monaco has shown that they are a very good team, I think that both this team and others in the French league want to take away the prominence of the super PSG that had the luxury of rejecting a CR7 for their ranks, they want to remove all hegemony that they have created based on PSG, this is something that I like, I would really like to see a different team be the champion of the French league, just to see how PSG would be? Since at the rate they are going I don't see them as strong, I think that the PSG coach has already shown that he is not capable of dealing with so many stars in the team, for this they have to look for coaches with a higher level in these cases, like Zidane, Ancelotti and those technicians like Mou who handle high caliber stars.

I just wanted to think that PSG would find a solution for the problem between Neymar and Mbappe. But things are still the same now seemingly. Mbappe is really the person who doesn't want to see Neymar at the team anymore. His not respecting Neymar too much makes Neymar uncomfortable. I wonder why Mbappe doesn't have a similar relationship to the one he has with Messi now. As long as the trio don't leave all the problems behind it is still a big risk for PSG's possible successes.

I have always said that Paris Saint-Germain cannot keep three selfish superstars in one team. Messi, Neymar and Mbappe all are all ambitions. Everyone of them wants personal glory for themselves. The best decision then was to let Neymar go by all means. PSG would not have peace until one of Neymar or Mpappe leaves that team. The competition between these players is very unhealthy. If the club is not careful PSG player would start having cartels or cliques. They might have three cliques, each one headed by the three superstars.   

This was the reason why Neymar left Barcelona for PSG.
Now Messi is back here playing in the same team.
Now it is more like Mbappe is also under thier shoulder's
Should have taken the chance to leave hehe

Clearly the things that are happening at PSG are the action of Mbappé's whim, and it seems to me that what the PSG has shown against two greats is a lack of respect and professionalism, Neymar Jr is somehow very motivated, and now the behavior of Mbappé with Messi on the pitch in front of the whole world have not been the right ones, and I think this is a lack of having a technical director who puts the cold points on him, because he really seems like a capricious child who should do what he wants he wants in the team, and he says that if he doesn't improve it, he won't have any allies when he plays, and he must remember that football needs a whole team, not just one player, so things can't go only revolving around Mbappé, as the Sheikh has made it known.

The issue is bad for PSG if their star players can not play well together in a whole team for a general objective. Their strength will be decreased if players have internal conflicts.

From personal view for Mbappe, it is bad too. If he can not control his extremely high ego and continue like this, he will self create bad connections with other players. He will be less focusing on his training and it will be bad for his career. If he continues like this, he will fall further behind Haaland. I am sure that Haaland will be the winner in the direct race between Haaland and Mbappe.

After many years, it is my first time to see a young player at ages 22 - 23 shows too high ego and reacts very rude, arrogantly against his mates like Mbappe. Scoring a few more goals from penalty won't make you a better player. Mbappe should look at Son Heung Min in Tottenham and learn.

Mbappe is adored by the PSG players, but he was clearly visibly upset during his on-pitch rant. Whenever Mbappe didn't score, he brought the world down with his mentality, attitude, ego, and arrogance. Mbappe's attitude is totally unacceptable for an upcoming start, even though it's normal to be hungry for goals. Due to Mbappe's ego, the combination of Mbappe, Neymar, and Messi will not work. He is young and hungry for success, and the club President gave him responsibility for the sporting project, which isn't right. Mbappe used to be one of my favorites, but it looks like he's becoming arrogant, and that's going to hurt him a lot.

Am I the only one who thinks the Mbappe vs rest of PSG thing is a bit overly covered and maybe even just made up?

I always did think there were too many stars at this team but I wonder if media is exaggerating a little just to make it seem like the whole team is in trouble?

Personally I don't like what Mbappe is doing but almost the whole team is professional and even without liking each other they can make it work on the pitch.

I personally don't think their problem is too far-fetched or exaggerated by the media, even if the media only reports about it once but maybe I personally am one of those people who believe in the problem. The strong reason I believe it is because, Mbappe is still young but PSG gave him some privileges that would at least make this Mbappe stubborn, arrogant or something. So that disharmony in the squad will certainly be easy to happen, moreover the person who is questioned by Mbappe is a senior player who has won more titles than him. This case at least reflects where Mbappe has no respect for older or more senior players, this case is a bad attitude.

maybe it could happen. nowadays almost all media portals, be it online or newspapers broadcast the dispute between mbappe and neymar.
I assume, the media exaggerated the incident so as to make the situation inside the club become heated. however, this feud between the three PSG strikers has been an issue for the past year. I think the root of the problem is mbappe's too big ego, his ambition to be the best player makes it difficult for him to be professional as he should be.

well, is it possible that the feud between mbappe, neymar, messi will happen again in the future?  if so I'm not sure spg can get the champion league trophy this season.

I am not going to blame the media for anything, when you give them the impression that something is wrong, they are going to write about it, and they may try to exaggerate to sell the news, but the main story is true, instead of blaming the media, i will blame mbappe for being so childish and unprofessional, anybody who watched their last game does not need the media or any news to tell them that something is wrong with the team, and it is because of mbappe's antics, how can a player stop running and start moving the other direction angrily during a counter attack, just because the ball wasn't played to you then, it is possible that at the end of the counter, the ball will find its way to you to score, but you just gave up on it angrily, that is just one of his unprofessional behaviour on that day. Needless to say that no football club can function effectively if they don't work together, and psg is not an exception.

Troyes started badly, they didn't get points in any game. Lyon, on the other hand, defeated Ajaccio, their next match was against Lorient and was postponed. Lyon got extra rest. At the start of the season that's not a big deal though. Lyon should easily win the game today. Troyes haven't beaten Lyon since 2007. It would be absurd to place a bet other than a handicap Lyon win and a Lyon scoring at least two goals.

In a football sense, Messi is already the past and I think that he initially came to PSG as more of a promoter than as a player around whom the game will be built - everyone understands that if not next year, then in a year Messi will leave. With Neymar, the situation is just the opposite - initially he came to the club as a "main star" and he had some kind of agreement on privileges or something like that. Now, after Mbappe has been signed on the new terms of the main star, their conflict is to some extent inevitable, especially given Mbappe's arrogance and selfishness.

Kylian Mbappe needs some sense into that skull of his, both of them should fix things up real quick as portraying such childish Acton the pitch is such embarrassing for me.
He should drop his shoulders and play soccer, like what's up with the lad ? He should go take a good look at Messi when he was 22 years of age. This attitude from Mbappe will take him no where, as I find it toxic for the team spirit of other players.
You're correct about Lionel Messi, also he has won it all and is only trying to win more in another league. Discipline lacked if you take a good look.... Galtier should get that into his skull

In theory, all this is easy, well, or at least real, but in practice, how can you make a person give up his ambitions if he has already gone down this slippery slope? Now we have a conflict between Neymar 2 and Neymar 1  Both have space sized contracts and both won't back down. In addition, I would rather believe that they (especially Mbappe) can fire Galtier from the club than Galtier have any influence on them.

Lyon statistics while against Troyes indeed fantastic even they can several times won with big scores and 3 points should be belongs to them from this match especially Lacazette is on fire that in the last 3 matches with Lyon he always be scoring goals and today too probably he will make a difference to Lyon game however recently i had checked the odds for Lyon and it's quite low @1.3 but as a host i might be will consider they will win with big score again so over 2.5 goals will be my pick

On this week of the league PSG are going to play an away game against Lille. Their last game in this stadium ended by a horrible score like 1-5 for Lille. After seeing how solid PSG played in the first games of the season I think that they can destroy Lille once more. Lille didn't start badly but they are still not a team that can keep up with PSG now. I will be expecting a PSG win by at least two goals.

[dwminer1]

The hosts are the clear favorite in the Olympique Lyon - Troyes game. Troyes lost their first two league games and conceded 3 goals in each of them. Lyon struggled a lot with Ajaccio but eventually get 3 points. I believe that it will be similar today.

Yes i totaly agree lyon team should win today game but i don't know if it will be an easy win because lyon team performance  is unstable, i think it worse than last season and since troyes team can't aford to lose again they will surely play defensively which will be tricky for lyon team.

The internal conflicts that occur within PSG are delicious food for the media, the media will continue to spread the news as long as there is a clear source.
PSG have made the mistake of giving Mbappe special privileges, the effect is that he is getting bigger with his unprofessional behavior.
Mbappe is increasingly looking more selfish, he feels the player PSG needs the most, Mbappe attitude is increasingly causing cracks in the PSG squad. Christophe Galtier must rebuild harmony between players, if this problem is not resolved immediately, PSG will find it increasingly difficult to get the Champions League Trophy.

Lyon is the stronger team, Troyes may have lost two games already and are 19th on the table, and another loss will be bad for them, but if a team meets another stronger than them, 'even if they can't afford to lose', the chances of them winning is still small, and that is the situation Troyes are in today, it is going to be very hard for them to win Lyon. Lyon were not too great in their first game against Ajaccio, though they won; but i expect improvements in this game and an easy win for them.

Currently one of the hottest favorites in the France league is PSG But PSC have won the first two matches of this season by huge margins. Neymar and Messi have contributed the most behind the victory in this mess This beautiful win was made possible by the wonderful dribbling of both of them and the beautiful understanding between the two I think they will always continue their winning streak Best of luck to PSG, hope they do better in future matches

This season PSG has got off to a great start. We have seen Messi and Neymar bonding since the first match of the season. But Mbappe is not playing well. He can't adjust himself to Messi and Neymar. Its bad effect will be seen in the team after a few days. Mbappe should be more friendly.

Lacazette is back and scoring, Lyon shouldn't have a problem in offense against Troyes. Troyes is one of the worst teams in French League and they are a contender to relegate this season. They started with two losses against teams that are weaker than Lyon. I don't think they can defend for whole 90 minutes. Lyon will find a way to score and if they score early this match would go over goals. Lyon win is safe bet but if odds are not satisfying you can try Lyon -1 handicap bet.

honestly the media is not exaggerating, the behavior that Mbappe has been showing is not a good thing, his ego is so big that he thinks he is better than messi and neymar just because he manages to score more goals at PSG, but he doesn't have the many titles and cups that messi and neymar have, he needs to be more humble and respectful, but unfortunately that won't happen because the PSG management itself gave a lot of "power" to Mbappe, meanwhile Mbappe will be the guy who will boss his colleagues and go create discomfort at PSG, in the long run this will not end well, because many players will want to leave PSG due to constant polemics with him


Olympique Lyonnais - Troyes

Today we have a game, I bet on Olympique Lyonnais and I think they can win that game

PSG is dominating here in French League for many years, and they are doing same job again in this season with just two matches and having 10 goals is surely amazing stuff from them with their all main strikers on scoresheet specially Neymar is doing good job even we are having some rumors between Mbappé and Neymar and special treatment from PSG management for Mbappé is having something fishy at this club but still things are very good for them in this new season.

In this round, now they are going to face Lille which is also good but most chances we are going to have same result from PSG because they are enough developed side and Lille is having nothing special in their squad to face them and having something different they are going down in quality after winning title in 2020.
