French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Distraction]

Since Messi has left the team, Mbappe is now the main player in PSG's squad. The team will now depend on Mbappe's performance. PSG management is well aware that now Mbappe leaves the team and their performance will drop badly. They will even lose dominance from Ligue 1. However, PSG has another star player Neymar in their squad. However, due to injuries, he could not stay with the squad for the full season. And so PSG will not risk relying solely on Neymar. Next season we will likely see both Neymar and Mbappe in PSG's attack.

PSG still have issues with winning a Champions League title even in Mbappe's presence. They have even built a dream trio to reach this goal finally but because of a wrong manager choice they couldn't make it once again. After these failures I wouldn't be surprised if PSG just let go of like all of those players including Mbappe.

Of course PSG don't just want to part their ways with Mbappe. Unlike that they are ready to do whatever is needed to keep him at the team for at least a couple of more years. But they had better start looking for a replacement for Mbappe already now. Because if Mbappe becomes insistent on not going on with Mbappe they will need a really solid player to fill his place.

I mean it isn't easy to find this kind of special players who are candidates to be legends one day. Aside from that if PSG feel like they can't convince Mbappe for an extension then it would be the best for them to make way for Mbappe to leave this summer not to let him go for free.

from Mbappe's dream of wanting to win a title in the UCL, this will provide a great opportunity for Real Madrid to have to take it if it is true that Mbappe leaves PSG. because we know for ourselves that Real Madrid is one of the football teams that often wins the UCL and of course Mbappe also agrees that if the price given is confirmed by Madrid PSG there will be no hope of advancing to the UCL final without Mbappe.

but anyway these are still rumours and let's see if Mbappe will continue his dreamless career.

Rumors for star players like that are always easier to stick out in the public media, even though they are not necessarily true, because Mbappe is a player who is quite good and also smart so it is also natural that rumors are widely discussed at this time. And I personally would also be very happy if these rumors come true because Real Madrid will be much stronger with a player like Mbappe in their team. Apart from that, there is some truth to what you said where if Mbappe continues to stay at PSG, it will be difficult for him to win the UCL trophy.

For superstars like Mbappe, it's important to be a team where they can have a better chance to win the champions league with their team. While they didn't have what they came for and on the other hand Mbappe got better offers from other teams like Real Madrid obviously he won't accept to stay in PSG for more years He is still young and he can have amazing offers.
That's normal to see Mbappe even leaving PSG in this situation.

[X-ray]

So far Mbappe has not justified his desire to join Real Madrid next season, but he has only said he will not extend his contract which will expire at the end of the season. This would be a strong signal that Mbappe could leave PSG anywhere, that also includes Real Madrid who have tried to sign him in recent seasons.

That's true but speculation can't be avoided. As you can see that if people will be seeing it as a signal if mbappe is interesting to join in another club especially real madrid which has been always linked with him since the previous season.
Madrid has no progress in signing him as a new player right now. What i know that if madrid is now trying to see his progress with PSG.
It seems like that madrid will not buy him even though PSG will be selling him in summer. PSG really needs money right now. PSG lost a lot from messi and neymar. The club is willing to recover at least some money from selling bellingham.

I just can't understand why Real Madrid tend to stay quiet and calm in situations like this, I think this is a good opportunity to reach some agreements with Mbappe. I don't know if they have, but nothing concrete about this rumor yet.

It's caused by real madrid may not be willing to spend a lot of money to get him again. Manchester united has very big ambition to sign mbappe once PSG will announce to sell him in summer. It's all still speculation.
That's why we shall wait for another news that may come in coming days.

There is still no action taken about Galtier by PSG. This season can't be counted as successful for him no matter how much he says that it was a good one. Winning the Ligue 1 title is an easy peasy achievement for PSG with a huge strength gap like this with the other teams. As long as they can't be competitive for the Champions League title and win it there is nothing that much admirable.

Maybe PSG haven't made up their mind about Mourinho yet and they are looking into some other candidates as well. But the earlier they finish the rumours about this manager change topic the better for them. While PSG are on the verge of losing Mbappe as well they need to make their choices more carefully from now on. Otherwise the Champions League title will be only in their dreams.

Galtier already sacked by PSG at the beginning of this month. I think that there's no need to do something about him.

Even napoli has seen him as a potential candidate to be a new coach for napoli. PSG is now still looking to sign a new player. Have you read the latest update regarding him?

So many news about PSG sacked galtier already published in the various sites.

I'm not saying that Galtier is a specialist of such a high level that Paris Saint-Germain needs and which is guaranteed to lead the club to the Champions League title, but it's time for the club to finish with the coaching leapfrog, decide on the candidacy of the head coach and then entrust him with the leadership of the team for several years. Nevertheless, the example of Guardiola, who was given to lead the team for seven years and patiently endured local failures in the Champions League, should become an exemplary example for the impatient owners of Paris Saint-Germain.

Patience is important but we must admit that Pep Guardiola has a very better CV from Barcelona to Bayern Munich and Galtier has a worse CV from his coach career. In addition, Pep Guardiola helped Manchester City to dominate Premier League in the last 6 seasons and gradually improved their performance in Champions League. Galtier in contrast, had a very bad season in Ligue 1 with PSG even they won that title. It is not good enough to convince any people including PSG fans.

Results in the past season are not good enough to support Galtier to be a coach of PSG in a new season. They are very rich and it's right to put your belief on a coach but it must be a good coach who can help you to harvest titles after a few seasons. I know there are some coaches who come from nothing to legendary reputation like Sacchi in Milan, Pep in Barcelona, Zidane in Real Madrid. So if PSG has enough patience and belief in Galtier, they can bet on him.

It's too difficult if we compare Galtier with Guardiola because it's clear that it can almost be said that Guardiola is the best coach in the world at the moment and his success in cultivating the Manchester City squad has made his name even bigger. I think that Galtier is not half of the career that Guardiola has achieved at the moment and what PSG did by terminating his contract with Galtier is of course the right choice because you cannot forever depend on a coach who is less consistent to win.

PSG's target is clear they have to win the champions league title for the first time and for Ligue 1 maybe they are already the kings for this competition. It is better for PSG to bring in a coach who has high credibility and has also won the title he is after because it has been proven that the arrival of a coach of this type can make PSG closer to winning the title they dream of.

Constantly changing coaches will not help the team grow because each new coach appointed brings a completely new game style to the table. The problem will be pointing to the players, who will find it tough to adjust to his tactics, while others will fit in flawlessly.  The Parisians require a potential coach who will bring the UEFA Champions League trophy to the Parc de Princes rather than their customary Ligue 1 triumph. Keeping an eye on José Mourinho, he's one of the few competent coaches in football, he understands the fundamentals of the game, and I'm convinced that if he joins PSG, things will improve for the club.

Next year in the French league will be interesting because many superstar players will leave PSG and they will join other teams PSG should replace these players but I think finding players will need enough time and enough money and since the PSg owner invested enough and didn't get good results we can't expect to see them spending more for the next season.
This situation can give a good chance to other teams, for example, a team like Lens could have a close race with PSG until the end of the season while they didn't have superstar players like PSG, now if PSG loses these players other teams can have a much better chance for the French League title in the next season.

I want to see if they will bring back superstar names in their squad next season or not. Because what I know is that they always do this to put them as a club with many luxury players.
Paris Saint Germain was hit by a serious problem that made the players not feel at home in the squad for long and decided to leave, and this should be used by other clubs to put pressure on Paris Saint Germain if they can't solve the problem quickly.
Actually there is a good improvement from Lens and Marseille for example, they can put pressure on this season, and I hope they can do it again and more next season.

I don't want to say bad things about Galtier, but the success situation at the club is obvious. Since the French League is not a very strong league, it is not difficult to be successful, but they did not become a quality team as the teams in the Premier League. That's why achieving success in the Champions League is something extra difficult.
Having a new coach on the team is very valuable and important at times like these. I think PSG can get better results after Galtier

So many news about PSG sacked galtier already published in the various sites.

I haven't heard of any official statement from PSG side interestingly. I didn't know that they already parted ways with Galtier. Because I check Transfermarkt frequently and I still see him as PSG's manager. Maybe they are waiting for PSG to announce the new manager officially soon to replace Galtier with him right after that.

The new manager is likely to be Nagelsmann for now. At least the latest speculations point to that. But I feel like they haven't still made up their mind between Mourinho and Nagelsmann options. Mourinho is still open for contract discussions with PSG. I find Mourinho more credible about bringing a Champions League title to this team honestly.

I wouldn't like to underestimate Nagelsmann but there is a really big career difference.

even though in the past when there were Neymar, Messi and Mbappe these three popular players I really hoped that at least PSG could enter the champions league final but unfortunately the presence of top players was not enough to help PSG achieve their dream of winning the champions league.
in this new season the hope of fans of the french league team only wants one of the representatives from the french standings to be able to enter the semifinals or the final round of the champions league to prove that the french league is not that bad.

If I'm not mistaken, SPG has removed Galtier from the coaching chair. because, as far as the rumors that I have read at this time there is only one name that is currently in contact with SPG. as quoted by Fabrio Romano, direct talks between Juliian Nagelsmann and PSG continue, there are important details that must be clarified because this week PSG is busy with Mbappe's chaos.

Well, negotiations are ongoing with Nagelsmann, no deal has been done at this stage. that means, there is a serious stage being carried out by PSG for a potential replacement for Galtier. but unfortunately, I didn't hear any news or rumors about Mourinho as a strong candidate to become PSG coach later. I'm pretty sure, if Nagelsmann is asking for some requirements to be fulfilled by PSG and if this materializes then Nagelsmann will become PSG coach next season.
Speaking of other rumours, Paris Saint-Germain are already in talks with Benardo Silva's camp regarding a project and personal terms. he is a priority target and an important part of PSG's plans. well, this time PSG glanced at a player that the club really needed, that they really needed a player as creative as Benardo Silva.
Regarding Mbappe, let's just wait and see how it turns out.

Neymar's future also doesn't look clear for now. Everyone is saying that he is most likely to leave this summer. Some speculations have been coming and going but there isn't an official offer yet. The latest rumours are recorded on June 13 (Al-Hilal) and June 10 (Barcelona) on Transfermarkt website. You see even Barcelona there.

But the Barcelona rumour is just much far away from truth compared to the Al-Hilal one. Because if Barcelona were able to solve their problems with FFP rules in the first place then they would have signed Messi. Because Xavi was strictly prioritizing Messi in the transfer window.

When it comes to signing for a Saudi Arabian team it wouldn't be unrealistic. But it depends on whether he gets an offer from a top European team first. In that case maybe he might want to stay here a little more and then leave for making much more money for Saudi Arabia or MLS.

In the end it was going to happen and after the season was over sooner or later this news was bound to be there and it was.
Galtier will not be able to stay at PSG for long, he can be one of the better coaches but his place is not a big club, at least in this case he will not be able to be there considering his qualifications are still below what they should be.

For Napoli it's unlikely to happen now that they've appointed Rudi Garcia as Spalletti's replacement and for that matter I don't even have any expectations of this coach for Napoli next season. Let's hope he does well in the end.

Regarding Messi, it is said that Messi has joined Inter Miami even on a free transfer and thus, it is certain that Messi will play in MLS. But regarding Neymar, basically Neymar is still under contract at PSG until 2025 and that's a pretty long contract too. But yes, because Neymar is so often injured, of course it will be a serious consideration for big clubs out there to recruit Neymar. But even so, I personally am still very confident that Neymar can still be relied upon but yes, if I consider Neymar's age and the contract that Neymar has at PSG, it seems that Neymar does not have a big chance of moving to another big club in Europe.

Even with 3 such strong players, they could not be successful. The problem is that we have very high expectations from this team. In a team with a star player like Messi, we always expect it to be one of the top 2 teams in the world. But when there is no success, we start to think that there is a problem with the coach.
The French League needs to show how good it is. We can say that it is not a very prestigious league in its current form. teams are just starting to develop

Maybe Messi has found a decent club to continue his career, but for Neymar it looks like Paris SG is confused by this fact whether to keep Neymar on the other hand often injured and if you want to sell Neymar it is difficult for other clubs to be interested in Neymar's current condition.
I feel sorry for Neymar in the coming season, maybe his career will be a little disrupted by the injury he experienced, but the hope that Neymar's fans will really recover soon and be able to make a good contribution to Paris SG.
