French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Docnaster]

The news between mbappe and liverpool have become trending topic again. Marco Kirdemir already revealed that if liverpool able to buy mbappe for €300m which is a crazy amount of money. I hope that this news was not true.
Liverpool must think for hundreds of times before trying to buy mbappe with such price. Im still waiting for further confirmation regarding this news but it seems like for me if this news was actually fake.
Nunez has become the most expensive transfer by liverpool so far. Will liverpool do something crazy like arsenal?  
This rumor is very interesting to be discussed.

I don't think the problem is the price but whether Mbappe is willing to play in the Europa League next season? If Mbappe is willing to go down a level then I don't think price is an issue as long as they or Liverpool are able and willing to spend that kind of money. So yes, even though it is a true rumor but still, I personally don't believe Mbappe will accept Liverpool's offer. Because at this moment it seems that Mbappe is not prioritizing money, because at PSG Mbappe also has a large income. So yes, at this moment Mbappe should have chosen a team that has a big chance to dominate the domestic league and also the Champions League.

No man. 300 million is genuinely too much for one player. And of course, there is always an underlying fear that he might not be able to perform as well as his shirt when he actually does come into the team. And why get him for 300 million when in the next season he is going to be a free transfer? Just give him a huge amount of money as a salary then.

But honestly, I don’t think this is actually real news. I don’t think any club is actually going to pay 300 million for him, especially when he's going to be a free agent in the next season.  But if Liverpool is offering that type of money, which is very unlikely, because I don’t think I have seen Liverpool offering that type of money for any player in recent times, I think PSG should sell him and also Mbappé should join Liverpool.

Does it mean that Liverpool's problem all lies in the attacking arms of the team? Don't you think Darwin Nunez was doing exceptionally great before h was brought at a high amount,  what is happening now?  Liverpool doesn't have to bring in Mbappe before solving their problem of goal-scoring instability. With one Central attacker, They only need more creative central midfielders that can actively support the available wingers which did brilliantly well last season. Spending such an amount to bring in mbape to me is a waste of resources. halve of That money can solve Liverpool's problem without Mbape

Since being left by Sergio Ramos at the end of last season, the PSG center back position has become vacant and therefore PSG is expected to be able to find a replacement for next season's competition. Today it is reported that PSG have reached an agreement with Lucas Hernandez from Bayern Munich and this has been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano. I think Lucas Fernandez is a tough defender and there is no doubt about his quality. For a transfer fee around 50 million euros and I think that price is still quite affordable for PSG. Now it's just a matter of waiting for the official announcement from PSG and I think this time PSG will try to start building a new squad for the coming season by bringing in a few more players.

Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1674390405578735619

I understand that Ramos left after a huge pay and excited season at PSG, But i do not think Lucas Hernandez is a replacement for Ramos. To my understanding, Lucas Hernandez is a left back, if we factor in his role in France world cup win and also in his debut appearances in Bayern Munich before losing his place to that Canadian LB. Am i right or wrong ?

Maybe if by left back you mean Theo Hernandez who currently plays for Milan. But Lucas Hernandez does play a central defender at Bayern Munich and this is the player PSG brought in in the summer. FYI, Lucas and Theo are brothers, so it's only natural if you suspect the wrong thing about these two players. So yes, it is appropriate that Lucas Hernandez is a substitute for Sergio Ramos because both of them have the same position as center backs. He is a good player and his interest in PSG definitely wants to try new things after 3 seasons with Bayern Munich before.

Mbappe would solve a lot of problems for any team, no matter which team he decides to go to. And of course he would also solve attacking issues for Liverpool. I don't think that Liverpool is to chance too many things about their offensive line. Salah is still there and Nunez has the potential to significantly improve as well. Imagine they could really get Mbappe, I think all there problems would be gone. You can always try to have more of something, but with that would be set up very well for the next season. But so far it seems to be rumors only.

[Distraction]

I don't know where this rumour linking Mbappe with Liverpool has come from. But I don't think it makes sense at all. I mean Mbappe's first choice wouldn't be to sign for Liverpool now. His priority is obviously Real Madrid. Maybe you can say that he would sign for the side which pays better.

But I don't expect Real Madrid to have second thoughts about offering the same conditions to him. Florentino Perez has already stated his intention to sign Mbappe at the earliest opportunity. Real Madrid is a dream team for Mbappe also. In this situation I don't think Liverpool would stand a chance against them.

[Leviathan.007]

Currently, the only player linked to PSG for the next season is Martin Ødegaard but since there are many other players who left PSG at the end of this season I still don't know how they are going to hire Ødegaard for the next season. Especially when PSG is still no sure about their coach and all we hear about the coaches for the next season is just Zidane and Enrique's names and nothing is clear yet for them.

Is Mbappe interested in moving to Liverpool? Mbappe is a great player no doubt. And he is capable of scoring a lot of goals if he gets enough support from the team players. The Liverpool team is very strong. Nunez and Salah are in Liverpool's attack. But Nunez is not experienced enough. He misses a lot of easy chances. And so Liverpool needs another experienced striker. I have yet to see any rumors that Liverpool want to sign Mbappe. I think Mbappe will join the Madrid squad if he leaves PSG.

Especially when PSG is still no sure about their coach and all we hear about the coaches for the next season is just Zidane and Enrique's names and nothing is clear yet for them.

I didn't expect to see Ødegaard's name to be connected to PSG. That is weird because he has a lovely career so far. It started with a hard time in Real Madrid but then he found his way in the Premier League and is now one of the leaders of the Arsenal team and he developed and improved his skills immensely. I was skeptical about his career at several points, but now he arrived at the country, at the club and also plays his position very well. I wonder if PSG would even mean a personal improvement to him. It is good as it is it seems to me.

In fact PSg doesn't need to hire any player at this time not even Ødegaard or any other player because they are still seeking a new coach however according to some news Luis Enrique is in Paris right now and we just need to wait for him to officially sign his contract with PSG and then he can ask PSG to hire players.
Honesty I can't wait to see how PSG is going to perform with Enrique

That is also true. Without a good midfield, a team is not going to be able to score well enough because the attackers are not going to be supplied with enough balls. That is eventually going to cause problems for the team.

I think there is a problem in today’s football. Football is transitioning towards a very fast pace and physical strength. But Liverpool does not depend on those. Liverpool should bring back the winger playback. We have seen a lot of teams being very successful by having good wingers in the team. So either you have players like Mbappé or Halland, or you bring in good wingers who are really creative.

Which thing that sounds non sense for you? As long as liverpool will able to prepare 300m and everything gonna be easy to take mbappe out from PSG. Football was dynamic. Since real madrid was only waiting him to leave next year and liverpool may still get a chance to buy him from PSG.
Liverpool was not bad club too. It's also competing in best league in the world.

But I don't expect Real Madrid to have second thoughts about offering the same conditions to him. Florentino Perez has already stated his intention to sign Mbappe at the earliest opportunity. Real Madrid is a dream team for Mbappe also. In this situation I don't think Liverpool would stand a chance against them.

So far, perez has not given a statement regarding it. It seems madrid is still on its decision to waiting for mbappe leave with free agent next season.
Madrid needs also to comply with FFP regulation. it can't buy as many player as possible. it's gonna be sanctioned.

Now you have heard these rumors Liverpool is rumored to have entered the fight for Mbappe and is offering about 300 million for the striker. As far as we know, Paris Saint-Germain also seems to want this amount, and not the 220 million plus 20 million as bonuses that Real Madrid offers. Another question is how Mbappe himself looks at it, and especially his mother. And I'm afraid that if Mbappe does not move to Real Madrid this time, the club will not forgive him, as it did quite recently, and they will become enemies until the end of Mbappe's career.

There has not been any confirmation from Liverpool as far as I know but the rumors are that Liverpool is willing to pay more for Mbappe than Real Madrid is offering to PSG. That would be an unexpected and spectacular transfer beyond doubt.

Nunez is a good striker and he scored 9 goals in 29 games so far in the Premier League. I think for him it depends on how he will make progress in the next season. The first season is often full of swings in performance and not everything works as people are hoping for. Maybe Nunez turns into the striker that Klopp wants him to be.

PSG is only one party in this whole deal. Even if Liverpool makes such an offer, Mbappe has to make the final decision. It is said that he could be interested, but there is no proof for that.

[rendravolt]

Currently, the only player linked to PSG for the next season is Martin Ødegaard but since there are many other players who left PSG at the end of this season I still don't know how they are going to hire Ødegaard for the next season. Especially when PSG is still no sure about their coach and all we hear about the coaches for the next season is just Zidane and Enrique's names and nothing is clear yet for them.

I think even though there is a chance to sign Odegaard next season it is very small because he is both the captain and a key player for Arsenal and there is no way Arsenal will let him go. PSG doesn't have to wait for next season to improve its squad now and this summer is the right time to build a new squad especially the midfield which is still lacking in creativity. The future PSG coach is also uncertain and the names of the two coaches are often associated with PSG, but I am more inclined to Enrique this time, who will be the next PSG coach.

[Cryptmuster]

In fact PSg doesn't need to hire any player at this time not even Ødegaard or any other player because they are still seeking a new coach however according to some news Luis Enrique is in Paris right now and we just need to wait for him to officially sign his contract with PSG and then he can ask PSG to hire players.

In my opinion, it remains only to formally confirm that Enrique will be the head coach of PSG, respectively, if everything has already been agreed, then Enrique can select new players for the team. But I was not sure that Arsenal would agree to let their leader go, because they are also very ambitious and set themselves maximum goals. In any case, it seems to me that PSG with Ernicke will be able to become much stronger.

PSG must have a new coach officially to start their summer transfer season. Everything can be changed in last minutes so nothing is sure that they will get Enrique as their coach. Before officially having a new coach, they can not initiate their summer transfer for both In and Out players.

They always have abundant money but have yet successfully and smartly use their budget. It must be changed after Manchester City succeeded with their long term plan, with a good coach, strong belief in the coach and good transfer plans.

PSG must be a united team in order to succeed together. If they continue to have conflicts of players, they will not succeed like Manchester City.

If in the future Kylian Mbappé moves from PSG, then I think Real Madrid's chances of getting his signature are much higher than other teams. Kylian Mbappé wants to play for Real Madrid and so far has stated this several times, but until now this news has not been confirmed. Real Madrid may not get Kylian Mbappé if they don't offer PSG a reasonable amount, but if they are willing to spend as much money as other teams are interested then of course Real Madrid will get Kylian Mbappé.

So far, there are many teams that want to recruit Mbappe, but once again, Real Madrid's chances of signing him are higher. I'm not sure Mbappe will move to another team if Real Madrid are really serious about getting him, but of course only if they are willing to pay PSG big money too.

They have enough money to pay PSG and Mbappe. They have history of success, a most successful club in Champions League, they have many players won Ballon d'Or in history. They have the interest from the player Mbappe who really wants to join Real Madrid.

I agree with you that Real Madrid will be a first club in the list of potential clubs if Mbappe wants to leave and actually leave PSG. It's hard to find any club like Real Madrid that can satisfy the player in many aspect: money, titles, personal awards, it's only can be found at Real Madrid.

So far, there are many teams that want to recruit Mbappe, but once again, Real Madrid's chances of signing him are higher. I'm not sure Mbappe will move to another team if Real Madrid are really serious about getting him, but of course only if they are willing to pay PSG big money too.

Real Madrid want to pay money but they know that they have more advantage than PSG. One more season and a next summer, Mbappe will join them without any transfer fee. PSG are the disadvantaged side in this deal.

[jakdanyel]

Currently, the only player linked to PSG for the next season is Martin Ødegaard but since there are many other players who left PSG at the end of this season I still don't know how they are going to hire Ødegaard for the next season. Especially when PSG is still no sure about their coach and all we hear about the coaches for the next season is just Zidane and Enrique's names and nothing is clear yet for them.

He is linked but the probability is really low as it is seen clearly. Odegaard must be satisfied with the interest coming from one of the biggest teams in Europe. However as far as I know he doesn't have an intention to leave Arsenal for now. He had a wonderful season in the EPL and he is going to compete in the Champions League also.

Besides he still has 2 more years with Arsenal according to his contract. He even looked keen on extending his contract in the future. I don't expect to see him leave at least for this season. But next summer we never know what can happen.

If he shows a superb performance again then it wouldn't be easy to keep him for Arsenal.

Now you have heard these rumors Liverpool is rumored to have entered the fight for Mbappe and is offering about 300 million for the striker. As far as we know, Paris Saint-Germain also seems to want this amount, and not the 220 million plus 20 million as bonuses that Real Madrid offers. Another question is how Mbappe himself looks at it, and especially his mother. And I'm afraid that if Mbappe does not move to Real Madrid this time, the club will not forgive him, as it did quite recently, and they will become enemies until the end of Mbappe's career.

If Liverpool offers 300 million for Mbappe then maybe we are going to see Mbappe at Liverpool. I don't think Real Madrid will be willing to spend 300 million on Mbappe. Liverpool are suddenly interested in Mbappe. Perhaps they are looking to build a squad fit to compete with Manchester City next season. Manchester City have Haaland, so Liverpool are keen to sign Mbappe, one of the best strikers at the moment. Liverpool has plenty of money, and they are keen to spend money. And so I think they will keep Mbappe in the squad either way.

Finally Luis Henrique reach agreement become PSG manager with two years contract duration, its good choose for PSG regarding how Luis Henrique experienced success won Champion League tittle when becoming Barcelona manager. PSG can star rebuilding new formation next season actually after leaving by Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos.

PSG sacked Cristophe Galtier after winning Ligue 1 tittle but failed in Champion Leagure and French Cup, right or not decision from PSG management choose Luis Henrique for filling PSG manager next season?
