French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[rahmad2nd]

~~

I doubt if Lyon will ever end up been relegated by the end of the season, they have been in the worse of their form this season and falling to the bottom of the table must have really affected their morales and their confidence would some how be raised down now. But I think if only they could win again they will get back on track.

If they could get two or Three wins in a row it will really help their confidence and morale and before the season end they will be back on track and at least move out of relegation. They are very likely not to end up in the current temporary relegation spot on the table where they are now. I personally can't really tell what exactly led  to this their performance this season but I believe they would bounce back considering their squad and the records they have had in recent past.

I still have confidence that Lyon will slowly return to the right track. however, for now they will need a phase of squad development and improvement. We'll see how far Grosso can take his squad. So far, he has only led Lyon for 6 matches. and just give him a chance first, at least he will get to the heart of the problems facing his squad and start to fix them. After all, the Lyon squad is not a team that has just been involved in Lique 1. However, it seems that in the last few seasons, Lyon has really slumped this season.

As I said, we don't know for sure why Lyon is so badly off this season. Besides, I don't have much of the latest information regarding this team. but what is certain is that several quite good players left in the last summer window. and these things could have an impact on their current squad, especially if the new players as their brides have not been able to show their best performance. But don't worry, this competition still has lots of matches to improve their ranking. At least, his focus is currently in the safe zone. Now Grosso just needs to improve his squad in all aspects, but they are starting to improve with two games without defeat. although, in fact, the players they have shown are not ideal. We'll see, every development.

I agree with you and it seems that Real has taken exactly this position - as follows from the leaks, Real is not taking the initiative in negotiations with Mbappe and is waiting for him to make an offer. It's quite funny when a club waits for an offer from a player (and not vice versa), but it is quite logical after what Mbappe did in the previous round of negotiations and given that Mbappe is now in a worse position. Real is doing the smart thing in this game for a lot of money.

If Kylian Mbappe signs a new contract extension that'll keep him at the Paris Saint Germaine beyond next summer, it'll be very obvious that his decisions as a player is majorly influenced by financial rewards and packages.
He had an agreement sometime in 2021 to join Real Madrid but made a last minute decision to extend his contract with Paris Saint Germaine because the club's president offered a more lucrative deal than what Real Madrid tabled but recently he's made some statements that suggests he wants to leave the club and join the Real Madrid so if he decides to extend his contract with PSG, I think it'll be majorly because of what he stands to gain financially

If we talk about maximizing earnings, then probably for Mbappe even last summer there was an option to move to Saudi Arabia, which would have been more profitable from a financial point of view. Next summer, when Mbappe becomes a free agent, he will be able to do this on even more favorable terms, but as we have seen so far, he is interested not only in money but also in sporting achievements, I hope he does not break down until he moves to a normal club (PSG is also a normal club , but League 1 is a weak championship).

Mbappe is still a young player. At the moment, he is not interested in going to Saudi Arabia. In the previous transfer window, the Saudi Arabian club made Mbappe an incredible offer of around $1 billion for 1 year. Although it was not an official offer. However, Mbappe has shown no interest. If Mbappe leaves PSG, he will go to a La Liga or Premier League club. Mbappe now wants to win the Champions League title. Perhaps he will prefer to go to Real Madrid. I think Mbappe will choose a team between Arsenal, Liverpool or Madrid.

That's not right at all. Mbappe wants to keep playing with the top European teams but we can't forget there are many young players who joined the Saudi League and we can't say Mbappe will not join the Saud League just because he is still young maybe in the next season if they send him another offer with more money that can hire Mbappe even before Real Madrid start thinking about him but still Mbappe is playing for PSG and there is even the chance for him to stay for a longer time in this team.

Mbappe even turned down Saudi Arabia indeed. It isn't about money for Mbappe from now on. Of course he cares about money a lot but he is already making tons of it at PSG.

From now on I would just expect him to choose wherever he would like to feel himself more comfortable and motivated. I don't know whether it would be PSG at this point. Because if they still continue to be not competitive enough in the Champions League I think he would have second thoughts. Maybe Real Madrid and at least one team from the English Premier League will make a contract offer to him in January. Let's see how Mbappe will answer.

I doubt if Lyon will ever end up been relegated by the end of the season, they have been in the worse of their form this season and falling to the bottom of the table must have really affected their morales and their confidence would some how be raised down now. But I think if only they could win again they will get back on track.

I personally can't really tell what exactly led  to this their performance this season but I believe they would bounce back considering their squad and the records they have had in recent past.

A team that is fighting relegation would have very very hard time trying to get 2-3 wins in a row. I mean if they were capable of getting 2-3 wins in a row, if they were a team that was possible for them to do something like that, they wouldn't really have a result like this. I believe that they are going to do fine, I do not really think that they are going to relegate to be fair, I do not think that 3 wins in a row is possible, maybe 2 if they are lucky but not three.

However, they could get wins here and there to get them out, plus they could get some draws as well, so overall they could have points averages that would be enough to take them out of that zone. Yet, that's not enough, they need to figure out what caused it and they need to have a recovery system in place. If they do nothing about it, even if they do not go down this year, they may go down next year or the year after that, they need a recovery to make sure that they are doing fine.

Kylian Mbappe is not all about the money anymore, he's keen on winning significant titles in his football career and with the looks of things, PSG can not be able to give him the necessary awards he deserves and labored so hard for. Mbappe is consider the most valuable player in France league and he's keen on moving to a more prominent club that's capable of winning major trophies in competitive tournaments. We all believed Real Madrid is his next move however let's hope the Frenchman triggered his decision to join Madrid this coming transfer window.

Young? In a month he will be 25 years old. This is far from young for professional sports. He literally has 5 years left when he can progress/not lose level, then after 30 years he will either try to stay close to the peak or gradually lose level. And this is in the best case, many players abruptly lose/end their careers at 32-33 years old due to injuries or simply because of physiology (not everyone is as gifted as Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo, and not everyone is such a fan of a healthy lifestyle that allows them to prolong their years sports). He literally has 5 years to shine in Real Madrid, and then he will be “in doubt”, Real Madrid does not look at past merits.

If it weren't for the money, it's possible that Mbappe would be more comfortable in France because he doesn't need to compete with other players and he will definitely be the number 1 player in Ligue One. However, this is not entirely good considering that his career also needs to improve at a more competitive level and it would be natural for him to leave if at his current club he still cannot win the desired title. Real Madrid is still the destination he will visit and now it is starting to doubt whether Real Madrid will no longer be interested in signing him.

Staying around for too long makes a big team like Real Madrid lose patience and Mbappe should have realized that from the start. Now we are in the middle of the season and is it possible that the rumors that have been around for several years will start to come true? Even though I'm still optimistic, I'm starting to doubt it a little.

I think mbappe has been heavy on career than with Money, because I know that the Saudi Arabian Side does make very good offers such that you find it almost too difficult to turn down. He has got a dream to archiving much more than he already has at France and in PSG over the years.

A place where he will get to the zenith of his career and set crazy records while getting paid really handsomely aswell is what I think he desires most now, he has gotten some good offer so far and personally i think where he can get to reach all this fulfilment is most likely with real Madrid but why he is yet to get a deal with them is what I don't know yet or maybe he is expecting an offer from an English side aswell, but I think it's most safe with Madrid if he could consider them.

Lyon hasn't really been performing so well in the goals scored and the margins too, they have work to do trying to go up to avoid relegation, there's still time left no doubt but they have greater chance of avoiding relegation than going up above the bottom half of the table, the manager needs to watch the team closely and decode the errors and profer a solution to it.

 The team doesn't have to lag behind anymore. They have to get enough points in their sleeves just so they'd be able to scale above the table confidently, Lyon has been a good team from the start but the season just seems against them but it's not too late to make corrections, they can still fix the areas that has the errors, so as to get back to winning ways and also avoid relegation.

Lyon is currently in the bottom of the table and is fighting relegation. Their front line is struggling score goals and their defense structure have been messed up. The manager needs to identify the areas where they are making mistakes. Once they have identified the problems, they can start to work on fixing them. They need to start winning games and getting points on the board so that they can avoid relegation. It is not too late to turn things around, but they need to start acting now.

Lyon need to create more chances and Their front line needs to be clinical in the box. but They need to build confidence from their defense. They need to be more solid at the back and reduce unnecessary mistakes. The players need to be more compact and having mentality to win games. Their need to show their fans that they play for the club with desire and determination. Lyon will need to work hard and be determined if they want to stay in Ligue 1.

Lyon is not in a good situation at all and they have lost problems so far in the team, even using a new coach couldn't help this team. Lyon was a team they were usually racing at the top side of the league but in this season they had the worst start they could ever have, they got only seven points in the 11 games they had.
The next game for Lyon will be against Lille and I think the rates are well enough to bet on Lille for this match.

The high rate of competition in Ligue One is tense, every club  forms to be really strong towards elite teams this season. Shocking news to see Olympique Lyonnias back to bottom, it's really out of line and there ought to be significant changes that would follow this season watching Lyon struggle through out. Lyon boss, Fabio Grosso have no power to strengthen the team because there's a whole lot of things he would carry out this season. Lyon are in the relegation zone and the least team on the table, there performance have declined more than any other team this season.

[QueenVera]

A team that is fighting relegation would have very very hard time trying to get 2-3 wins in a row. I mean if they were capable of getting 2-3 wins in a row, if they were a team that was possible for them to do something like that, they wouldn't really have a result like this.

Yet, that's not enough, they need to figure out what caused it and they need to have a recovery system in place. If they do nothing about it, even if they do not go down this year, they may go down next year or the year after that, they need a recovery to make sure that they are doing fine.

Well there's nothing impossible, they might be battling in the relegation zone and looking for every possible means to do better on the pitch to get back but i think winning their 1st league match before the break, is a very big step to reviving from their hardtimes cause it could boost their confidence level and ginger them to do better in their upcoming matches after the break and if they work hard enough then there’s a possibility that they won't lose their next 2-3 matches.

 Before their 1st win they got a draw which shows that there’s room for improvement in the team, i know beating Lille in their next fixture is not really going to be easy even though they're the hosting team, however they should try steal a point in the game to boost their chances of leaving the relegation zone.

For a player like Mbappe, money was never suppose to be his problem checking from the deal he signed with PSG when joining them. He would only be greedy if he had joined the Saudi league when he is still much needed in Europe and big teams wanting him to come and join them. Right now, he his in the last season of his current deal which I am sure he is not going to renew it. We just have to wait to see the team that will come for him. Real Madrid who are the most preferred club to sign him have felt reluctant about him this days and will want him to push the offer to join them himself and not vice versa.

All the players move around clubs because of money, so it's money that makes players to change clubs, Mbappe is just a fresh blood so I think him moving around is to make money because right now Mbappe is not looking for form any longer what's is looking for is money, at first when players started football  what they concentrate on is to gather firm and also being well known so that they will be marketable, so immediately they gather popularity they will not be mindful of their participation again, because they knows that have already make things easier for any team to hire them, so money making is what is in every players mind after they have being well know.

Mbappe is still targeting to get as many achievements as possible and that makes sense if he was turned down lucrative offer from saudi. European players are seeing it as a way to retire from playing football and got lots of money easily from playing there but mbappe is still young and he is seeking more achievements on his life. No doubt that if he was doing it. There have been many young talented players are also doing the same like him to go to the another european club with lower wages rather than go to the saudi pro laegue club.

From now on I would just expect him to choose wherever he would like to feel himself more comfortable and motivated. I don't know whether it would be PSG at this point. Because if they still continue to be not competitive enough in the Champions League I think he would have second thoughts. Maybe Real Madrid and at least one team from the English Premier League will make a contract offer to him in January. Let's see how Mbappe will answer.

He will go to the real madrid. Mark my word. Real madrid may be denying but im sure that if madrid will be moving without even needed to tell the public. The deal can be made privately toward him at this moment. There are some clubs were offering him but i think that mbappe is only having his head for real madrid. He has been linked to the several clubs even chelsea as he has also chelsea's shirt. I think that all of speculations will come in winter transfer.

It is true that many professional football players move to different clubs for financial reasons. Many players are motivated by the opportunity to earn more money. But for a player of mbappe's caliber, money can wait. He is already a football household name with records and achievement. He still can earn big payment at the age of 30+ like some players have done / been doing in MLS and Saudi. it would be so weird if he still prioritizes money over football enthusiasm.

Right now He should be an ambitious players to achieve more for his passion of football and for history to write his name. He has won the World Cup with France, he is one of the most exciting young players in the world, he is expected to be a major star for many years to come. Now He needs to win uefa champions league. I believe that Mbappé has the potential to be one of the greatest players in football world.

Coaches must try to motivate players so that they can provide maximum results in the future and may have to try to evaluate the front line and defense so that they become better in terms of scoring goals and defending. This season is still quite long and there is still a lot of time that Lyon can maximize in order to avoid relegation at the end of the season, but the problem is to what extent the coach can make a difference in the upcoming matches because if continuously accept defeat it can actually make the player's motivation worse.

Apart from looking for ways to improve the front line and defense, they must also be evaluated so that they don't make mistakes that lead to defeat. If you have a good front line but the defense is still poor then this can also endanger the team. I'm still quite confident that Lyon can get out of the relegation zone but that's not enough.

That tons he is currently making made him go silent on Real Madrid president when Real Madrid  wanted his service I was surprised turned down the club. As it stands,it feels like he won't be a Real Madrid player after they announced that news. Its a good thing bto be around people who love you but he becomes a man next year and should forget ahead.
Yes, if he wants to leave he should but I am sure that he will not be having a longer stay with PSG. If he wanted he would have made the contract extension when the club asked him to sign. He's Silence is a clear sign that he is not interested in spending life further.

Nobody can tell anything concerning a football, a good you see today that is not money conscious and tomorrow the footballer can change, maybe Mbappe have seen the method of other players who become money conscious when they notice that they have little time to go, now that he is vibrant and stronger maybe he want to make his money and during old time to get retired he will know feel relaxed, nobody that doesn't look for money, the plans of footballers is to make money so I don't think that Mbappe can be exempted, so therefore we don't need to be saying anything concerning football players and money,  basically most of the footballers love football and most of them too are into football because earning of money, I think this is my summary.

His decision regarding continuing his career at PSG is always interesting to look forward to, after the drama at the start of this season and after that he has never made any statement and there has also been no decision to extend his contract, making his fans very curious as well as elite clubs who are very interested in being able to buy him.
The media always links him with Real Madrid but the club has clarified that there is no agreement whatsoever with the player so which club will be his next career destination is still a mystery, although it does not rule out the possibility that he will remain at PSG with the club owner offering something more big or big changes at PSG so that this club can be better in the champions league because Mbappe really wants to be able to get a title from a more prestigious competition than just Ligue 1.

Brest actually starting this season with good performance because at the beginning of league they got 4 wins from 6 matches and it makes them can able reach to top 3 at that time but recently Brest performance was decline because they were failed to win in the last 5 matches in Ligue 1 and this weekend Brest will fight against Montpellier and according to the head to head statistics Montpellier is hard opponent for Brest because in the last 2 meetings Montpellier can able to win with big scores even last year Montpellier was humiliate Brest with scores 7-0

However about team conditions currently some of big European clubs were paying attention to Montpelier striker Akor Adams but i have no wonder about that because this season he has showing impressive performance by scores 7 goals in Ligue 1 and for this match it is confirmed Akor Adams will be available and Montpellier has good chances to win the match considering they have good records while playing at home against Brest and Montpellier has odds @2.27
