French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Kristiyana]

Lyon 4 winning streak games ended tonight against Lens in pretty rough way as 3-0 was the final result with Lens being already 1-0 since first half. I think this victory will bring back the good morale for Lens as they are back on 6th place that will lead them towards Europa Conference groups.

Lens managed to perform well in this match, and they were able to minimize Lyon on their own home turf with a fairly heavy score as well. Actually from the beginning Lens was the favorite in this match and the victory was predicted beforehand and they could do it very well. At first Lens was very difficult to penetrate the defense built by Lyon, but in the end they found opportunities that they could convert into a goal in the 43rd minute, so they could end the first half with a 1-goal advantage.
Entering the second half Lens was more confident with the advantage they had and the result they could create 2 additional goals. Lyon who tried to catch up could not do anything, they had to swallow this bitter pill.

Lens had a very good win. Lyon were very good in the last matches and I thought they might have a chance against Lens since they were playing at home, but apparently I was wrong. While Lens got an important victory with a clear 3-0 victory, Lyon was disappointed and left the match without points. They are at least comfortable now that they are away from the relegation zone.

Lens did absolutely well, there performance yesterday was quite impressive,at first I was thinking that the match is going to be in favor to Lyon due to there current performance they win 4 straight matches,mean while lens has been in a losing position this time but to my greatest surprise they beat Lyon with a score of  3:0 not even one goal from Lyon what a bad day for Lyon.

Lens had a very good win. Lyon were very good in the last matches and I thought they might have a chance against Lens since they were playing at home, but apparently I was wrong. While Lens got an important victory with a clear 3-0 victory, Lyon was disappointed and left the match without points. They are at least comfortable now that they are away from the relegation zone.

There is nothing surprising in this match apart from Lens being better than Lyon, but Lyon should not have lost by a landslide score at home. I think it will be a narrow win for Lens because Lyon is actually quite tough and so far they are unbeaten in the last 6 matches in all competitions. Sometimes the feared things happen and here Lyon's good record came to a halt against Lens.

I think there is truth in what you say as long as Lyon is away from the relegation zone then that is much more important than the result of this one defeat. Lyon can try to achieve another victory in the next match and don't have to be sad just because of this defeat. Lyon's journey will be even more interesting because the teams below them will compete with each other so that they don't fall back into the relegation zone and here Lyon needs full concentration so that that doesn't happen again. A small difference in points will make everything change every week.

Lyon failed to continue their four-game winning streak because they lost quite badly to Lens, but they didn't play badly, they just weren't good at maximizing every opportunity that existed, in contrast to their opponent who was able to maximize the opportunity to score two goals with an additional goal from a penalty reward.
Lens' victory makes the competition in the European zone even more interesting because the difference in points between several teams is not too far, even Marseille has this opportunity after successfully winning two matches in a row, but of the several teams currently competing, Brest will be one of the teams accompanying PSG in the champions league and the other team could still be anyone because there are still 10 matches, meaning there are 30 points still up for grabs so this will be very interesting to look forward to until the end of the season.

I agree with your review of the match. At the beginning of the match, Lyon had apparent scoring positions with Mangala and Nuamah. If they had converted those positions into goals, the match could have turned out differently. Lyon did not win this match. But they showed again that they can stay in the league. The important thing for them this season is to stay in the league. They currently have 28 points. and 5 points above the relegation zone. I think they will manage to stay in the league this season. On the other hand, Lens played knowing that football is a collective game. They entered the Lyon penalty area with extra passes. And they got into many goal positions. I think they will finish among the top 5 teams in the league this season.

Football is unpredictable, as Lens's win over Lyon showed. Like many, I expected Lyon would win because to their recent form and home advantage. But Lens's 3-0 triumph shows that form and statistics only tell part of the tale. Lens outperformed Lyon in every facet on the day.

Despite disappointment, Lyon has a bright side. Their position away from relegation is encouraging. They have time to recuperate and focus on the rest of the season. Lyon and their fans must not dwell on this setback. Instead, they should anticipate the next match with optimism.

It seems like Lyon failure against Lens was because Lacazette was not present on the pitch but I'm not sure what caused him not to be present at the match but am I missing something?
TBH, I didn't bet and didn't watch the match, just looking at the recap of the Lyon vs Lens match, I saw that Lacazette was not present on the field and this is a loss without the presence of Lacazette, who Lyon really relies on because he is a good scorer, Lyon has and what you said It's true that Lyon is just not good at mastering the opportunities that exist because several times Lyon actually had the opportunity to score but in fact failed and Said Benrahma actually tried to get a score but always failed.

In yesterday's match I hoped that Lyon could at least hold a draw to maintain its consistency but in fact it failed even though Lyon performance actually looked good, they were just unlucky in controlling the ball so they often lost focus and the mistakes were in the defense which always gave Lens a chance to score.
and Lyon position is currently being shifted Toulouse who managed to get 3 consecutive wins and Lyon must immediately get up again because there is Strasbourg which could shift Lyon position.
In the upcoming match, Lyon will have to play against Lorient and this is a good opportunity to steal 3 points because Lorient condition is currently in a very bad condition when several of Lorient defenders have too many injuries.

Playing without a striker is really a big thing of worry for most clubs as it makes them look very unproductive when in front of goal. This is the case of so many major teams especially in the EPL this season. One very big example of this situation is Manchester United team as you can see how poorly they perform without Hojlund in the team. Well Lyon now happens to be one of those many teams who hace now fallend under such situation.

 In the match against Lens we can see that this Lyon team was very doing very great but they weren’t able to get the victory because they didn’t have the main man to get them the goals. Playing without your main striker who’s doing so greatly can be quite difficult and frustrating and I think that was the story of Lyon in the match against Lens as they got the clear chances but had poor conversion rate of those chances. They need to recover their form and begin to do better like the previous season.

 Well the loss has happened and now they must learn to move forward and sure improvise. Improvisation is very important so as to avoid situations like this where all are used to one striker and when he’s unavailable then the team will be lacking the fire. Their next match is a must win if they still want to keep alives their hope of an European competition. I know they’ll try beating you can see in the match against Lens that they weren’t playing badly but their major problem was to convert the goal and I think they should be improved before the next match.

Nice last winning on Ligue 1 was happened on January from Metz and since that match Nice was unable to win and 2 points from 5 latest matches it showing Nice performance is decline and this week i was thought Nice can able to bounce back and win from Toulouse because on the paper this match should be easy for them but surprisingly they lost from Toulouse and this result is makes Nice position was out from champion league spots because their current position on 5th place and i know difference points between them and the team from Champion League zone Monaco is not high but if Nice want to finish at top 4 then they should be immediatelly to bounce back

Nice upcoming opponent for next weekend is Montpellier and similar to Clermont we all know Montpellier also can be considering as weak team and this team also still hard struggling to avoiding relegation zone and based on head to head statistics too we can see Nice is too strong for Montpellier because Nice was unbeatable in the last 5 meetings and Nice can gets 3 wins from those matches and win result is mandatory for Nice because if they playing draw or even lost from this match then their position on league standings can be overtaked by other team just like Lens

[slapper]

Funny how since Mbappe is known for leaving in the summer for Real , PSG are 2 draws in a row and the title fight is kinda back online with Brest being 9 points behind them but I doubt anyone can catch PSG.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, although it doesn't rule out the possibility that this news will affect the team's situation, but I agree that other teams will still have difficulty catching up with this team because PSG's condition will soon recover to win again in other matches because it seems that their competitors are also not in a very stable condition to win all the remaining matches this season.

Lyon - Lens and this is a tough one for Lens because Lyon has a winning streak of 4 games and last month for Lens has been really bad , being eliminated from Conference League and then lost top 6 in Ligue 1 too...

Lyon failed to continue their four-game winning streak because they lost quite badly to Lens, but they didn't play badly, they just weren't good at maximizing every opportunity that existed, in contrast to their opponent who was able to maximize the opportunity to score two goals with an additional goal from a penalty reward.
Lens' victory makes the competition in the European zone even more interesting because the difference in points between several teams is not too far, even Marseille has this opportunity after successfully winning two matches in a row, but of the several teams currently competing, Brest will be one of the teams accompanying PSG in the champions league and the other team could still be anyone because there are still 10 matches, meaning there are 30 points still up for grabs so this will be very interesting to look forward to until the end of the season.

Lyon worries me most. Their recent showing against Lens shows they're struggling to score. I noticed Mangala and Nuamah having clear shots but couldn't score. Lyon has potential, but they're not ending strong. With 28 points, they're very close to relegation. I think they can stay in the league, but they need to improve. However, Lens' teamwork amazed me. They know football is about teamwork, and Lyon might learn from their extra passes into the penalty area. Lens appears likely to finish in the top 5 this season. Their field strategy and execution are good. With Marseille gaining steam, the European zone race is heating up, making the season's finish exciting

Funny how since Mbappe is known for leaving in the summer for Real , PSG are 2 draws in a row and the title fight is kinda back online with Brest being 9 points behind them but I doubt anyone can catch PSG.

When speculation continues to hit about the departure of their star then usually the club will be disrupted and eventually affect club performance, as is the case with Mbappe at this time who continues to be linked and confirmed to leave for Madrid next season, especially reportedly if now Mbappe has reached a personal agreement with Madrid to join Los Galaticos next season, but strangely somehow Luis Enrique still plays Mbappe as the spearhead of PSG and give capten position for him even though if we see if Mbappe no longer plays all out and tends to play casually to avoid injury in the match,  After Mbappe decision to leave, it does seem to affect PSG attacking power at the moment and even I think PSG will perform better if Mbappe is no longer played this season.

If you notice that in PSG last two matches that ended in draws, Mbappe average performance and statistics were below 7, and isn't that very rare to happen when Mbappe has not decided to leave?
Honestly, I suspect that this was deliberately done by Mbappe at the urging of Madrid so that at least Mbappe could join Madrid later in top condition without any injuries that plagued him.

I don't really know what made you think PSG could perform better without Mbappe and he leaves the team they can have better-attacking power because as far as I know Mbappe helped his team a lot and considering his age and his situation he could have good performance in PSG if they make him stay however I don't think if this player is going to stay and maybe that's why after Mbappe leaving the PSG, they should start seeking for alternative options for him, however, I don't think if there's any player at the same situation to take his pale in PSG.
But a team like this needs to buy an alternative player if they want to race in the important tournaments like the Champions League.

Funny how since Mbappe is known for leaving in the summer for Real , PSG are 2 draws in a row and the title fight is kinda back online with Brest being 9 points behind them but I doubt anyone can catch PSG.

Despite the draw that PSG got in the last few matches, I don't even see a big thing to change about the trophy competition because everything is still the same where PSG is still the club that runs alone for the trophy this season.

The difference of 9 points from Brest is not a situation that can be pursued quickly because even though Brest's performance is extraordinary this season but still we will still consider them as a dark horse club not as a competitor because that is what we can pin on a club like Brest.

Indeed, in the last few matches Brest has performed quite positively but that alone is not enough to make them look worthy as one of the title contenders for this season in Ligue 1 because looking at the current point difference we seem to know that it is still very far for Brest to be used as a title contender and can compete in the race for the trophy this season.

[Iranus]

After the completion of Week 24, almost nothing has changed in the standings, apart from the mid-table positions that have undergone slight changes. Paris Saint Germain got a draw, but it had no effect whatsoever on their position as they still lead at the top of the table by a wide margin. They have 55 points, while Brest who are ranked 2nd have 46 points, followed by Monaco who have 42 points and LOSC with 41 points. with such a wide point gap, I confidently say they will become champions again this season.

PSG will continue to lose points in a few matches, but they will be able to retain the top spot in the table. PSG are now 11 points ahead of Brest. So PSG is not worried about Ligue 1 matches.



However, several teams are fighting for the third place in the table. There will be fierce competition here. The Monaco team is now occupying the third place in the table with 42 points from 24 matches. However, Marseille, who are seventh in the table, also have a chance to grab the third spot in the table if they can perform consistently well. Marseille are only 6 points behind Monaco.

Instead I see tighter competition at the bottom of the table, the distance of points between them is tight, apart from Clermont who is at the bottom of the standings with a distance of 7 points from the club's position which is really safe. But still with such a point difference, it makes all possibilities possible. Not even just clubs in the red zone, but there are at least 4 clubs that are still struggling to get further away from the degraadation zone. Something interesting because I like this competition more than the competition at the top of the table which is certain to have a defending champion every season. If only there was a club that could keep up with Paris Saint Germain maybe the competition at the top would be just as interesting as it is at the bottom.

Montpellier are fighting hard to get out of the relegation zone. Montpellier has a big chance of getting out of the relegation zone. Because the team is only 3 points behind Strasbourg in the 12th place of the table. So every team at the bottom of the points table will have to fight hard to stay away from the relegation zone. Strasbourg, Nantes, Lorient Le Havre Each team is likely to go to the relegation zone if they do not perform well in the upcoming matches.

Paris Saint Germaine might not be able to deliver the best kind of football that's expected of a team with such number of intimidating quality players in their squad but that I don't think is ever gonna stop them from winning the French Ligue 1 at the end of the season and that's because the other teams that are supposed to be competing with them have been absolutely awful since the start of the season. Over the weekend, Paris Saint Germaine dropped points in their league game against Monaco by failing to win the game but rather got just one point while second placed Brest were able to get a win in their game against Le Havre.

With the result of the league games of the weekend, Paris Saint Germaine's lead at the top of the table have been reduced to just 9 points but I still don't think they have anything to worry about when it comes to facing strong competition from any of the other teams in the league. Paris Saint Germaine only problem if you ask me is if they can be able to have a good season in the UEFA Champions League competition. The club's best player of the last decade Kylian Mbappe will be leaving the club this summer but will definitely want to leave an indelible impact in the club by winning the UEFA Champions League trophy but can that even be possible for him as a player? Time will tell

But a team like this needs to buy an alternative player if they want to race in the important tournaments like the Champions League.

That right, Enrique has to compile a list of players he is targeting next season, and I think PSG management will easily fulfill the coach request. Financially, PSG is certainly not constrained at all, it's just that their bargaining power to win the Champions League trophy is not as good as Madrid, City or Bayern. So it is a little difficult for PSG to recruit star players who want to win this prestigious European trophy, in fact that was the reason Mbappe to leave PSG.

Without Mbappe PSG will certainly look blunt on the front lines, but I think that will only be temporary. The depth of PSG squad can allow them to continue to dominate Ligue 1, and of course there will be players who will take on the role of covering the holes left by Mbappe. Enrique certainly hopes that Mbappe can stay, but all decisions are not under his control.

Of course we will see PSG management building a squad that is able to compete in the Champions League, and it is possible that PSG will not focus on looking for players who are labeled stars. It could be that the reason they have failed to win the UCL trophy so far is because of gaps in many aspects within the team, without that anymore, who knows, PSG can achieve success.

Football is unpredictable, as Lens's win over Lyon showed. Like many, I expected Lyon would win because to their recent form and home advantage. But Lens's 3-0 triumph shows that form and statistics only tell part of the tale. Lens outperformed Lyon in every facet on the day.

Despite disappointment, Lyon has a bright side. Their position away from relegation is encouraging. They have time to recuperate and focus on the rest of the season. Lyon and their fans must not dwell on this setback. Instead, they should anticipate the next match with optimism.

If the Lyon player's shot had not hit the Lens goalpost, perhaps the situation and result would not have been like the result we know with a score of 0-3. in fact, Lyons actually had several opportunities, unfortunately they were unable to convert them into goals. in the end, Lens was able to beat Lyon even though the match was away. however, if you refer to the statistics of this match, it seems that this match was quite exciting. even though Lens dominated Ball Possession more, Lyon also put up quite an exciting fight as the home team.

Referring to the technicalities of these two teams, both Lyon as the home team and Lens as the away team, are almost equally matched. it even seemed like the match was going on with buying and selling attacks. Lyon had 3 counterattacks, while Lens had 2 counterattacks, as well as every chance these two teams had. but what can I say, after playing 6 matches with wins. in the end, Lyon was defeated by Lens at home. but as you said, at least Lyon is currently in a safe zone from the red zone. In the next match, Lyons must return to their best performance to improve their ranking in the Ligue 1 standings.

Despite disappointment, Lyon has a bright side. Their position away from relegation is encouraging. They have time to recuperate and focus on the rest of the season. Lyon and their fans must not dwell on this setback. Instead, they should anticipate the next match with optimism.

Lyon 0-3 defeat to Lens further made their position quite tragic at this time in the standings and even now Lyon has to settle for being ranked 11th in the Ligue 1 standings by collecting 28 points from 24 matches, while Lens who managed to win 3 points further solidified their position in 6th place at this time and opened their chances to be able to reach the Champions League zone which is only 3 points adrift again,  Although they only difference 3 points, it seems that it will be difficult for Lens to finish in champions league zone because they have to compete with strong teams such as Monaco, Lille and Nice, especially their unstable performance at this time when competing.

For Lyon, of course, this season has been quite a bad season for them compared to the previous season which was able to stay in the top 10, although they still have a chance to improve their position but it will be quite difficult after their mainstay after Lacazette is injured at the moment, Lacazzette injury has a significant impact on Lyon, the injury that Lacazette got in february made him have to rest until now and if you pay attention after Lacazette injury, Lyon seem to be starting to struggle to score even though they still have Benrahma up front.

[arimamib]

Lens had a very good win. Lyon were very good in the last matches and I thought they might have a chance against Lens since they were playing at home, but apparently I was wrong. While Lens got an important victory with a clear 3-0 victory, Lyon was disappointed and left the match without points. They are at least comfortable now that they are away from the relegation zone.

There is nothing surprising in this match apart from Lens being better than Lyon, but Lyon should not have lost by a landslide score at home. I think it will be a narrow win for Lens because Lyon is actually quite tough and so far they are unbeaten in the last 6 matches in all competitions. Sometimes the feared things happen and here Lyon's good record came to a halt against Lens.

I think there is truth in what you say as long as Lyon is away from the relegation zone then that is much more important than the result of this one defeat. Lyon can try to achieve another victory in the next match and don't have to be sad just because of this defeat. Lyon's journey will be even more interesting because the teams below them will compete with each other so that they don't fall back into the relegation zone and here Lyon needs full concentration so that that doesn't happen again. A small difference in points will make everything change every week.

Lyon's unexpected loss at home does come as a surprise, especially considering their recent unbeaten streak. Maybe they are tired of winning while they are having a bad season. lol. Lyon's overall performance and position in the league standings are more crucial in the grand scheme of things. Their focus should be just avoiding relegation that would make them feel more pressure if they lose a game. Lyon can focus on regrouping and bouncing back in their upcoming matches.

The fact that they have been unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions indicates their resilience and potential to recover from setbacks. Rather than dwelling on this defeat, Lyon should put their energy into maintaining their position in the league table and striving for consistency in their performances. Consistency for a team fighting relegation doesnt mean that they have to win every game. Every point matters, but Lyon must remain fully concentrated to ensure they don't slip down the standings.

[hahay]

Lyon failed to continue their four-game winning streak because they lost quite badly to Lens, but they didn't play badly, they just weren't good at maximizing every opportunity that existed, in contrast to their opponent who was able to maximize the opportunity to score two goals with an additional goal from a penalty reward.
Lens' victory makes the competition in the European zone even more interesting because the difference in points between several teams is not too far, even Marseille has this opportunity after successfully winning two matches in a row, but of the several teams currently competing, Brest will be one of the teams accompanying PSG in the champions league and the other team could still be anyone because there are still 10 matches, meaning there are 30 points still up for grabs so this will be very interesting to look forward to until the end of the season.

I agree with your review of the match. At the beginning of the match, Lyon had apparent scoring positions with Mangala and Nuamah. If they had converted those positions into goals, the match could have turned out differently. Lyon did not win this match. But they showed again that they can stay in the league. The important thing for them this season is to stay in the league. They currently have 28 points. and 5 points above the relegation zone. I think they will manage to stay in the league this season. On the other hand, Lens played knowing that football is a collective game. They entered the Lyon penalty area with extra passes. And they got into many goal positions. I think they will finish among the top 5 teams in the league this season.

It is still too difficult for Lyon to beat Lens in this season because after all, although Lyon played at home but Lyon also did not manage to have better statistics compared to Lens this match. With results like that, then I think it's feasible for Lens to win in that away match but indeed, the defeat Lyon got in this home match was definitely a big defeat which maybe also quite disappointing.

But indeed, at least there is still a great chance for Lyon not to be relegated and that is their target this moment. Indeed, at the moment even though Lyon is in the middle of the table and only has a five point gap with the team in the relegationzone, but I think the teams that are in the relegation zone at the moment do not have a great effort to be able to get out of the relegation zone. Therefore, I believe that Lyon is in a good position because of course, Lyon will still be able to get good results in the next matches and that will make Lyon in a safe position to stay in Ligue 1.

[el kaka22]

I really really do not think that title competition is back at all, in fact I believe it was never on, PSG just took over and won it all and be the leader and that's it. I think it's quite clear that the yare going to get it as well, the yare nowhere near, there is like what 9 point difference? That will not be closed and it will just stay as big as it can get. We should focus on what we can do, and I do not think that will change. I hope that the best thing we can do right now would be making sure that things are looking greater in the end.

I hope that we could consider something much better, and that should not be all that crazy, we could make it work one way or another, and could end up with a greater result in the end for PSG, forget about Mbappe, rest of the team is good too.

Funny how since Mbappe is known for leaving in the summer for Real , PSG are 2 draws in a row and the title fight is kinda back online with Brest being 9 points behind them but I doubt anyone can catch PSG.

When speculation continues to hit about the departure of their star then usually the club will be disrupted and eventually affect club performance, as is the case with Mbappe at this time who continues to be linked and confirmed to leave for Madrid next season, especially reportedly if now Mbappe has reached a personal agreement with Madrid to join Los Galaticos next season, but strangely somehow Luis Enrique still plays Mbappe as the spearhead of PSG and give capten position for him even though if we see if Mbappe no longer plays all out and tends to play casually to avoid injury in the match,  After Mbappe decision to leave, it does seem to affect PSG attacking power at the moment and even I think PSG will perform better if Mbappe is no longer played this season.

Honestly, I suspect that this was deliberately done by Mbappe at the urging of Madrid so that at least Mbappe could join Madrid later in top condition without any injuries that plagued him.

I don't want to believe that it is because of the fact that Kylian Mbappe announced that he's going to leave Paris Saint Germaine at the end of the season that Paris Saint Germaine are currently struggling to win games rather I'll blame the club manager for his recent tactical approaches especially in the club's last two league games. The fact that Kylian Mbappe have announced that he's going to leave the club at the end of the season shouldn't be the reason why he should always be subbing him off when he's not complaining of fatigue just because he wants his team to start learning how to play without Mbappe. Paris Saint Germaine still have a long way to go if they really want to have a great season in not just the French league but also in the UEFA Champions League competition and the more he tries to make Mbappe look more like a player who's not treated with the same respect he was getting when he hasn't announced his departure from the club in the summer the more the player reduces how he performs for the club.

Kylian Mbappe as we all know is one player that's capable of deciding games and despite the fact that he's going to leave Paris Saint Germaine at the end of the season, I think he's still committed to helping the club achieve every possible achievement they can get this season including winning the UEFA Champions League and must be given the chance to deliver his best for the club before his departure in the summer. Luis Enrique must understand that he has all the time in the world to rebuild a Paris Saint Germaine team to without Kylian Mbappe but that will be when he finally leaves the club and not now that he's still very much playing for the club

Mbappe's announcement to leave PSG is the main reason that being unfair to him, which is now clear to everyone. No matter how Luis Enrique wants to divert the situation to the public, Kylian Mbappe is not expected to behave this way. A player can change his club but what Luis Enrique did is revenge. Not playing him full-time in 3 consecutive matches certainly raises a different discussion. The portrayal of Luis Enrique is not satisfactory. Any team that leaves PSG should not get the respect they deserve at the end. We have seen this behavior in the past with Messi and the same happened with Neymar. Some bad supporters of PSG don't let the end get better. But I think it would have been better for Mbappe if he could have left the club earlier. When we see this legendary player at Real from next June 30, we hope he will be back to his form as Messi showed by joining Miami.

Funny how since Mbappe is known for leaving in the summer for Real , PSG are 2 draws in a row and the title fight is kinda back online with Brest being 9 points behind them but I doubt anyone can catch PSG.

We should blame Luis Enrique for making changes in his team? It's publicly stated out and we'll watch Kylian Mbappe exits Parc des Princes stadium at the end of the season. This is the exact phase Luis Enrique is trying to hook up with, he keeps substituting Kylian Mbappe halftime because he's planning for the future of the team, he knows one of the key player is leaving and the earlier he starts playing matche without Mbappe contribution, the better. PSG must learn to win matches without the aides from Kylian Mbappe, one of the reasons we're seeing the poor results of the club currently.

Mbappe will not be with PSG next season. So Luis Enrique needs to find a suitable replacement for Mbappe. At the same time, PSG has been dependent on Mbappe for a long time in the team. This dependency needs to be reduced. If Mbappe suddenly leaves the team, PSG's performance will be ruined. This is why Luis Enrique is not keeping Mbappe on the field for 90 minutes. It is almost certain that PSG will win the Ligue 1 title. They are ahead by a big margin. This is why Luis Enrique is now experimenting with the PSG team. Without Mbappe trying to figure out where PSG's weaknesses are. Luis Enrique will be able to stabilize the performance of the PSG team without Mbappe.
