French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[BitcoinAccepted]

The fans at PSG are happy that Messi has left. It's sad that a player like Messi had to leave PSG through a back door. But next season they will mainly have to field a stable team, in the national competition there is no pressure at all because everyone actually knows who will become champion. In that respect, Lens' performance is of course a major achievement, finishing 2nd with certainly not the best selection behind PSG. And then hope that next year you can also compete in the top of France. But prolonging the 2nd plate seems like an impossible task at first glance.

I think it should be another coach. The first name that comes to mind for me is Jose Mourinho.

mourinho will not go to psg next season and the reason is very simple: at psg, players like neymar and mbappe are headaches for coaches, the first case is that of neymar who lacks discipline, has bad behavior and does not played nothing during the whole season he is injured, so any good coach will avoid PSG while neymar is at psg, the second case is that of mbappe who due to his great talent and the dependence that the team has on him and the fact that he is french and with great influence in the national team of france it becomes very difficult for a great coach to give orders to mbappe
that's why great coaches like zidade and mourinho prefer to train teams like roma and there's a rumor that says that zidane prefers to train juventus than psg, and they're right, neymar and mbappe aren't the bosses and other players are also not 100% obedient and also frankly PSG fans have shown hostile behavior when the team loses, that's why messi left the team, that was obvious. although the press and nobody say it, but it was too obvious that the bad behavior of psg fans made messi leave the team.

You don't win the champions league quickly, city coach took many years organizing city to win the european champions league, and PSG managers and fans want results immediately, they think that a new coach in one season will already win the league of the champions, this is not possible

I wonder what PSG was thinking when they had given Mbappé authority over other players in the team. Did they think that it was going to bring them to the Champions League? Or did they think that just bringing in great attacking players to the team and ignoring the other positions is going to bring them the Champions League trophy?

Sometimes I do not understand what PSG thinks. After bringing in so many great players they are asking the question which is, why the team is not doing as well as they should? They never thought that the team was not balanced and the coach also did not have enough authority over the players. Why are so many great players, like Lionel Messi, and Neymar Junior are going to listen to a coach that does not have many achievements?

I feel the problem PSG have is mostly because of the bad management they have.
PSG got enough money and they had good players too also they had enough investment in their team to even hire better players, but the fact about this team is they need to have a good management team to keep the players in line which is not something PSG has.
That's why I think even if they hire better players still nothing will change for them.

Last season PSG had a complete and quite perfect squad if we look at it but their final result failed in the Champions league. I think it's not only bad management but also very bad psg fans where they make fun of messi because they think that messi failed to bring psg to the final in the Champions league even though they don't need to do that.

For next season I think that both the management and the manager in coaching must be able to align all the players to stay the same or nothing needs to be special because they are a team not a person.
Even this season management has fired Galtier and they are trying to persuade Zidane and most likely I believe their dreams will not come true.

PSG sacked Galtier in the end of the season and he wasn't the only one leaving the club that way lately. Maybe this was the reason why Mourinho didn't want to move to Paris. I read that they failed to find an agreement with Nagelsmann too but it seems that Luis Enrique is the closest coach to sign contract with them as soon as this week from what I read in media.

Maybe Zidane can make some changes and finally help PSG in the champions league.

Another reason if PSG's side is not even approaching him. It's clearly stated by him before the final of europa league if there's no delegation from PSG that was coming to approaching him. That being said that if mourinho thinks if PSG was not interesting to take him as a new coach for the club. PSG was not giving signal regarding this problem, it's still remain without a coach to build the club. The transfer season already opened and PSG has been making some movements like buying ugarte.
I think that PSG has a plan that will surprise us. In my opinion if this gonna be another big surprise. We do know that if PSG is now having trouble with mbappe as the player is not willing to extend his contract.
Let's see how good to development to get enrique. I think it may be ended like naglesmann.

[bering]

Mourinho is unlikely to go to PSG, he is preparing Roma by making several player sales and also wants to bring in new players. Enrique is indeed the strongest rumor because rumors have been that negotiations have been carried out and all that remains is to wait for an agreement on both sides. Previously there was also news regarding PSG wanting Arteta to go to France. but it looks like it's just a rumor.

Luis Enrique will become PSG's new coach to replace Christophe Galtier, at least that's how the news headlines spread in the media. Perhaps these rumors are justified and PSG have reached some agreement with Luis Enrique, but there has been no official announcement on the situation so far.

Luis Enrique is a successful coach with Barcelona during his tenure of several seasons. At least he has won 9 titles for Barcelona including 1 Champions League title. His playing philosophy is almost the same as Pep Guardiola or some other Barcelona coaches, so PSG can expect him to win some titles. But for the Champions League title, Luis Enrique might find it difficult to do so with PSG if it is not supported by some of star players.

I have read this news too that PSG has choose Luis Enrique as their next manager and reported PSG will giving him 2 years contract but he hasn't officially announced yet because PSG and Luis Enrique have to finish some detail about the contract agreement and apparently the speculation is over that Luis Enrique will be the replacement of Galtier and about his track records everybody know he is briliant manager and one of the most best achievement from Luis Enrique is he was able to gets treble winner with Barcelona on season 2014/2015 at that time Barcelona under him can gets Copa Del Rey, Champion league and Laliga title so maybe he is the right coach for PSG because Enrique has the experience to gets champion league trophy

Maybe Zidane can make some changes and finally help PSG in the champions league.

everything depends on the PSG players themselves even though PSG are fighting over Zidane but if their best player leaves this team, of course it will also greatly affect PSG's performance. well, on the other hand if there are 2 teams who will take Zidane I think Real Madrid is the one who has a bigger chance to get him.
just look at Zidane who was very close to Real Madrid and won a championship with Madrid so maybe Zidane will choose to go to Real Madrid.

[CLS63]

Goal says that it is still not clear with whom PSG are close to sign a deal soon. There are just manager candidates to think about all of the options. Nagelsmann, Luis Enrique, Zidane, Mourinho and even many more according to the source. After checking out all the candidates my favourite is still Zidane of course. He can absolutely be the right one for PSG.

He is a really successful manager. He won 3 Champions League titles in a row with Real Madrid as you can remember. He is French and this might also be some help for attracting him to the job maybe. He has been after taking over at France national team for some time but it doesn't look like it will happen in the near future. Because Deschamps has a contract until 2026.

Meanwhile it would be really lovely if Zidane signs for PSG and work hard for making them win the Champions League title at least once. This is the main goal of the team for years.

Galtier failed to stabilize the PSG team. And we were sure that PSG will not keep Galtier as coach next season. PSG needed an experienced coach like Zidane. But Zidane is not interested in coaching PSG. On the other hand, I haven't heard any rumors about PSG wanting to coach Nagelsmann. However, in recent times, it seems that Luis Enrique will be the coach of PSG management. I think PSG will be stronger if they get an experienced coach like Luis Enrique. However, Luis Enrique must be allowed to operate freely. PSG's performance will not stabilize if Luis Enrique is unable to operate independently.

And then hope that next year you can also compete in the top of France. But prolonging the 2nd plate seems like an impossible task at first glance.

It's a shame that it was the end of Messi with PSG and no one suspected that there had been an internal conflict between the two which caused them to part ways on good terms at the end of the season. I think PSG fans have little respect for a star player like Messi, especially since he is one of the great players for over a decade. But this status means nothing to PSG fans and it's as if they all told Messi to leave Paris immediately.

It's certainly clear that for Ligue 1, PSG will continue to dominate even for the next few years and even though Lens did threaten the top spot it was only temporary. But I'm pretty sure that in the next season at least there will be more mature turmoil to be able to fight for the top position.

Isn't it explained in the news about which team Zidane wants to enter and become a coach next season? Because Zidane himself had experience in coaching Real Madrid before Ancelotti returned to Real Madrid. So it is very possible for Zidane to return to Real Madrid not to PSG even though there is news linking him to PSG, but I am more certain that Zidane will prefer Real Madrid to PSG if it is to become a coach next season.

So, is Zidane all his life only going to coach Real Madrid? I personally don't believe Zidane will return to train Real Madrid but indeed, one day Zidane could return to Real Madrid. But even so, I'm also not sure Zidane is willing to accept the offer to coach PSG because after all, this rumor has been raised for quite a while and there are no signs of Zidane coaching PSG. Therefore, because in the past when Zidane was still a player, that Zidane had also played at Juventus, I personally think that maybe Zidane will choose Juventus over PSG.

Right now Zidane is having no club with his last talk was with PSG management where they give him blank check, but he rejects this offer and waiting for the job of France National team which is not available until 2026 because current coach is already have extension until this period even we have too many rumors about him with linked too few other clubs and teams, but his stance is clear about this all he will only manage France national team.

There were few rumors about Carlos Ancelotti that he is leaving Real Madrid for the Brazil national team job, but this is also not happening so most chances we will have no club for the Zidane in this season as he just wants to coach his own national team instead of any other club or national team.

I read new rumors.

"Luis Enrique is PSG's coach of choice ! The former Spain coach will be hired by the Parisian club, with just a few details left to be worked out"

Source : Marca
Seems like PSG are still aiming for the UCL trophy. Luis Enrique started working as a manager in 2008 with Barcelona B, and then him move to Roma three years. In the 2013–2014 season he can also become a coach at Celta, and then move to Barcelona. If i'm not mistaken, Him can make Barcelona winning the treble in his first year and the double in his second. With an amazing record, if PSG get his services, so there is a chance for them to win the title they have been aiming for.

[jostorres]

After rejection from Zidane and Julian Nagelsmann this is good choice for the PSG because 53 years old Luis Enrique is the best person for this job and can do much better than current coach Galtier which was completely failure with have too many stars he has done not positive thing but now after many stars are leaving and PSG have coach like Luis Enrique we can expect good changes in coming season even still it's not sure can they win Champions League because its never been predictable with too many teams and all having their strategy for the best results but still his track record with Spain and Barcelona is impressive which can help him for having things in good control.

Right now, PSG management is having target of Champions League, so hopefully they will do all things favorable for this instead of French League which is never been challenge for them even in worst circumstances they won this in last season.

These rumors have been going on for a long time and until now there has been no confirmation from Zidane's side whether he will join a club in the near future or he is waiting for the one he really wants to join. Zidane is one of the coaches who have been talked about a lot, but he doesn't seem interested in responding to the rumors that have linked him about the club wanting to sign him. It seemed he still wanted to let this rumor get into a wild ball without any clarity. Neither Real Madrid nor Paris Saint Germain or any other club have managed to get him, I'm sure it's been a mature consideration that he's been thinking about during his time off from the coaching bench.

Zidane's agent never confirm if PSG has been approaching him and why can people speculate him to go to the PSG as a new coach? That sounds nonsense to me. Zidane will not be going anywhere and he will stay as a jobless. I don't even know the way of this guy thinking about that.
So many offers rejected by him and he was not even willing to tell about what team that makes him have interest in it. I think that PSG is far from picking zidane as a new coach. Im not even feeling optimistic about that.
Zidane will not become a new coach for PSG. Probably the fake news like so many sites were publishing the news if PSG already contacted mourinho while mourinho itself confirmed if it never happens.

[rahmad2nd]

I wonder what PSG was thinking when they had given Mbappé authority over other players in the team. Did they think that it was going to bring them to the Champions League? Or did they think that just bringing in great attacking players to the team and ignoring the other positions is going to bring them the Champions League trophy?

Sometimes I do not understand what PSG thinks. After bringing in so many great players they are asking the question which is, why the team is not doing as well as they should? They never thought that the team was not balanced and the coach also did not have enough authority over the players. Why are so many great players, like Lionel Messi, and Neymar Junior are going to listen to a coach that does not have many achievements?

We only have answers based on assumptions and speculation. but what is certain, we will not know exactly what actually happened within the PSG camp, both between players and club management. IMO, the club should not give special privileges to only one player who in the end he himself did not decide to renew his contract with the club.
Another factor, I often say, is that PSG is not handled by people who are competent in their field. maybe we can also say, PSG should be under a seasoned coach who has a track record in his career. plus, the coach has control over the players both on the field, locker room, and involves the coach when it comes to bringing in newcomers.

but what I see, quite the opposite. yep, like you said in this post. even so, I don't think it's entirely the coach's fault.
Supposedly, PSG's management is also responsible for why they can't be as successful as City. not only from a coach who is great and has quality, but all involved such as staff, officials, understand their respective duties including in terms of future players.
from my point of view, PSG are sharp up front but on the other lines they are still lacking a lot, especially the midfield players. should, PSG can be as great as City. then, why do I always compare with City. because both of these clubs, are owned by middle eastern countries. they have abundant financials, but PSG is not handled properly by people who are professionals in their field. Now, rumors suggest PSG are hoping to seal a deal with Luis Enrique.  we'll see, how the next development.
