French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[bering]

Pierre Sage has done an amazing work so far by rescuing Lyon from the relegation zone. However I still see his contract like it expires by the end of this month. I assume Lyon doesn't think of parting ways with him right? 

Because it would be a huge mistake. A contract renewal must be made soon. The players and the manager have a solid chemistry as it seems. This shouldn't be broken to get prepared strongly for next season. They had better benefit from this transfer window well at the same time. I think Lyon have potential to be competitive for top 4 but I'm doubtful about a title competition for now. Even joining a Champions League somehow would be good progress for them next time.

Perhaps, at first Pierre Sage was only appointed to be the head coach temporarily but in fact, Pierre Sage really managed to make Lyon can end the next season very well. Although indeed, at first Pierre Sage also only had a position as academy manager but who would have thought, Pierre Sage certainly deserves a new contract. It's strange, if Lyon doesn't give a new contract to Pierre Sage because of course, it will be difficult for Lyon to appoint a new coach who is right and suitable for Lyon. Therefore, then of course Lyon must give a new contract to Pierre Sage but indeed, maybe there is still plenty of time until the new season starts later, but I also hope Pierre Sage gets a new contract to remain Lyon manager next season.

I have been discuss about this before because previously Lyon was compeletely messed up under Laurent Blanc and Fabio Grosso even i was very pesimistic Lyon can able to survive in Ligue 1 and when Lyon owner has decide to hire Pierre Sage as the replacement of Fabio Grosso then most people were doubt he can improve Lyon performance and save Lyon from relegation zone especially Pierre Sage status is only coaches from youth academy and he considered still lack of experience to train Ligue 1 team but surprisingly Lyon progress under Pierre Sage is very rapid

Imagined within months Pierre Sage can increases Lyon position from relegation zone to top 6 or European zone so obviously he deserved to gets new contract from Lyon because i am sure Lyon will be performing better under him for next season however until now i couldn't find any news about Pierre Sage future in Lyon because his status currently is still as interm manager and indeed few weeks ago Pierre Sage has give his statement about his future in Lyon because he will discuss about new contract after the final match of France Cup against PSG but unfortunately after that match ended there was no official statement from Lyom regarding his future

I think Lyon should keep Pierre Sage because after all he is the one who saved Lyon from a difficult time this season. Pierre Sage is an underrated coach who is rarely heard of but thanks to his abilities he was able to save Lyon from the bottom table which was almost relegated and even managed to finish in 7th place while bringing Lyon to the European league competition for next season.

It would be a mistake if Lyon just let go of Pierre Sage and it would disrupt the good relations between the players in the dressing room. I think with Lyon's current situation they have a bigger chance in the competition and the most important thing is that the start of last season must not happen again. I can only believe Lyon must be in the top line of competition with other teams and hope they can threaten PSG.

Star players alone cannot bring PSG to the highest level of the UCL, Messi, Neymar and Mbappe have their own egos and want to be superior to others so it is not clear why PSG failed at that time. Now PSG management is starting to learn that what they need is not just star players, but a history of struggle. This means that PSG in League 1 is used to lifting trophies, but in the UCL competition it is just an ordinary club because PSG does not have stability. This season there is only Mbappe in the UCL and the results are not too bad, meaning that basically PSG must be able to create a stable squad. Now Mbappe departure will leave a lot of work to do, without a pure striker replacement then I'm not sure next season in the UCL we can go any further.

Have some star players in one team give problem for PSG behind most of the playing with their ego and prefer with individual skill than playing as unity team.
PSG have star players when signing Lionel Messi and trio attacking line Neymar, Mbappe and Lionel Messi failure make PSG reach higher level performance in Champion League and only get dominance by winning domestic league. I think need experienced manager when bringing many star player in one team how to make team playing for team than individual.
For next season, PSG without Kylian Mbappe and seems better for team working without any players has ego, but its bad impact will PSG become more successful after leaving by Mbappe or PSG get top performan in Champion League next season.

PSG had a lot of star players. The squad was built by the PSG management spending a lot of money. But PSG didn't have the experienced coach to handle so many star players. With an experienced coach, I believe PSG could have dominated the Champions League.

Although PSG had a lot of talented players, the bonding between the players was not good. Due to lack of chemistry between players and lack of match strategy, we do not see good performances from PSG despite having many star players in the squad. However, hopefully with the help of Luis Enrique, the PSG team will be able to gradually improve.

[pusaka]

Moreover Chelsea interest in this player is quite high, they are trying to bring in young players in their squad, it seems that this would be a good choice for Julian Alvarez so that he can develop himself and also get more playing opportunities, because his current performance is in good condition so it is very unfortunate if you don't get a position on the team.
If Alvarez chooses to leave Man City, this will be a very good choice for him to develop his performance because at a young age like him, he will work optimally if he plays.

A young player like Julian Alvarez will definitely still be looked at by many teams at this time if he can really leave Manchester City. Because currently there are many teams who are targeting young players whose talents can still be developed by all coaches because this will also be the most important part for any team. But Manchester City itself will not just let go of a young player like Julian Alvarez at such a cheap price if Manchester City really wants to sell Julian Alvarez at this time. So the team that is eyeing this player must also consider a suitable offer for this young player.

Young players are now like prima donnas for big teams, because with young players they can make their future brighter and currently Julian Alvarez is one of the players who is being looked at by many big teams, one of which is Paris Saint Germain.
However, as you said, it will be very difficult to get Manchester City to let go of their players, especially since I also heard statements from Manchester City that they are not interested in letting go of Julian Alvarez. That makes the chances of the team wanting him even smaller with what Manchester City said.
I also haven't heard that Julian Alvarez wants to leave Manchester City and maybe he still wants to stay with this team. Moreover, Pep Guardiola also seems to still need this player to remain in the squad.

[Inwestour]

Because these clubs are the richest clubs in the Premier League so their competition is quite fierce in recruiting players with good potential because they have stable finances and it is easy to recruit players at high prices. Even though the most important thing is for them to be able to make their club successful somehow in order to continue to compete fiercely in the Premier League, Chelsea is interested in Manchester City's mainstay player Julian Alvarez but unfortunately Manchester City is not interested in releasing this player to Chelsea no matter what offer Chelsea gives. In my opinion Pep Guardiola will still use the services of this player even though he doesn't always play full time but Pep always uses it even if only for a short time on the field.

He is an important player and he is a replacement for Erling Haaland if Erling Haaland is rested or injured so if this player is sold who will replace Erling Haaland's role on the front line Pep Guardiola has to look for other options or implement a new strategy even though the composition of the existing players At the moment it's good enough, Pep just need to improve the performance of each player so they can appear impressive next season and provide fierce competition every season.

Haalland was not at City before, they bought him from Dortmund, just as in a year another talent may appear that Guardiola will be interested in. And he also doesn’t want to give up Alvarez, because as you noticed, situations in football can be different, and you always need to have another good player on the bench for backup. But Alvarez wants to get more playing time, which is understandable, hence a situation arises that Guardeola will have to deal with, or Alvarez will leave the team.

[bitgolden]

Having many star players in their squad so far should be able to make PSG a strong and easy team to win trophies not just domestic trophies, but in fact we often see unharmonious relationships between these players so that in the end the stability of the club is disturbed, just like when PSG had the MNM trio in the past, where many of us believe that the PSG squad will be able to create many records and also get trophies Champions League at that time, but it actually caused gaps and conflicts between players like what happened with Neymar and Mbappe.

The ego possessed by the star players certainly makes the team atmosphere uncomfortable, so indeed the club needs an experienced manager to ensure that all players work together for the same goal, currently PSG has lost all its star players and only Dembele is left in the front line so indeed Luis Enrique may be able to manage the team better in facing the competition next season,  because indeed team dynamics, coach strategies, and also player adaptation will be important factors in addition to mainstay players, in my opinion the disruption of team harmony started from the PSG management who were indeed too privileged Mbappe at that time so that without them realizing it would only make their team weak without equality in the team, But for now, only time will determine whether PSG will be more successful or not without Mbappe.

Well they had a period where Neymar-Messi-Mbappe played together, and they did worse with two of them, then they did this year where it was only Mbappe. Maybe the point is to have no stars but bunch of great players?

If you have a star then the play is just focused on the star and that causes trouble, but if you have no star, like no player that is obviously better than everyone else, then the ball is shared better and the results would be better? Even a team like Manchester City, who has Kevin De Bruyne and Haaland level of stars, do not play on them all the time, watch any of their games and you will see that they share the ball and pass a lot, which means that everyone gets to touch the ball before they score a goal.

[Palakka]

But Alvarez wants to get more playing time, which is understandable, hence a situation arises that Guardeola will have to deal with, or Alvarez will leave the team.

After losing Aguero at that time, Manchester City recruited Haaland and projected as Aguero's replacement, so that indeed Haaland, who had no difficulty adapting to Manchester City, immediately became Guardiola mainstay player at Manchester City, the arrival time of Haalaand and Alvarez was of course not much different when recruited by Manchester City but indeed Alvarez who came from River Plate was projected as a backup for Haalaand so far,  So it is not surprising that he will remain the number two choice when Haaland plays, currently PSG is indeed very interested in recruiting Alvarez but I think it will be in vain because so far Manchester City will not let go of Alvarez.

Alvarez has impressed this season by scoring 11 goals and 9 assists so Guardiola of course sees the great potential that Alvarez has in the future, Alvarez who does not have many opportunities to play should be more intense urging Guardiola and Manchester City to give him a guarantee to play next season, although currently Alvarez looks very eager to leave Manchester City but his contract and selling price are a barrier for other teams to recruit him.

I agree with you. Haaland's fitness is very good. However, if Haaland suffers an injury, Guardiola has Alvarez as a suitable replacement for Haaland. Alvarez is a talented player. And Alvarez has already proven his worth. Despite not getting a place in the starting XI, he managed to score a lot of goals. And the important thing is that Alvarez's goals have won Manchester City in several important matches. Manchester City will definitely not want to lose such a talented player. But personally I think Alvarez should leave Manchester City. Because he will not get a place in the starting XI if he stays with this squad.

PSG had three superstar players on the team and they tried their best to have a better performance in the Champions League but still, they couldn't do that and even the players they had like Messi left the team. I think now after Mbappe leaves, they will have bigger problems but as Enrique said, they will try to fill the place of Mbappe in the team by using all the players they have by having better teamwork.

Star players should be able to inspire and encourage other teammates, so that there is no ego and also disharmony of the club occurs, so far of course we can see how the PSG players seem to only throw the ball to Mbappe and of course it indicates an unbalanced situation of the club, if you remember such a case once happened at Barcelona where at that time Messi seemed to have ambitions to highlight his personal record compared to team and even forced other players to only give passes for him to score, but at that time the coach was able to dampen Messi ego, football is a collective game and having stars in the squad is precisely to add to the performance of the team not individuals as has happened to PSG so far.

Actually, having star players is also important in the club but of course the coach must be able to emphasize the philosophy of team equality more than individual players, if we take the example of a team that has stars of course, we cannot deny that Manchester City is also a team that has many stars in the squad, but Guardiola managed to implement a collective and team-oriented game,  where every player contributes and no one is overly dominant, so that with a collective game every player has an important role in their duties, so it is indeed very difficult for the opposing team team in anticipating every attack they have built so far, when Haalaand is closely guarded, of course other players have the potential to score goals for Manchester City victory, while when Mbappe is tightly guarded and not in his best performance when playing, of course so far PSG has had difficulty defeating their opponents.

I think now after Mbappe leaves, they will have bigger problems but as Enrique said, they will try to fill the place of Mbappe in the team by using all the players they have by having better teamwork.

It is a tough job and maybe Luis Enrique is aware of this and he will try to do his best for the next season. But the support of the players he needs must also be fulfilled by the management because relying on the existing players will be difficult. Building a stronger squad is not easy and it is proven that adjustments have to be made from season to season. Now a big step has to be taken and losing Mbappe will be a threat in the front line when they play in the Champions League next season if they don’t have a replacement.

Like the previous seasons with the three big names Lionel Messi, Neymar and Mbappe, but PSG also struggled to achieve success in the Champions League. Teamwork, players supporting each other and the coach are very important, maybe this kind of work is what PSG must improve on next season.

I think now after Mbappe leaves, they will have bigger problems but as Enrique said, they will try to fill the place of Mbappe in the team by using all the players they have by having better teamwork.
 

Enrique also said that they need to learn to play without Mbappe. In fact, they had a very good season, considering that the team was left without Messi and Neymar, they even had to beat Dortmund, but it happened as it happened. I’m almost sure that PSG will be able to replace Mbappe with someone as good as him, new young players are constantly appearing who are capable of playing no worse and they will become new star strikers.

I see a lot of talk that PSG can buy Vinicius and I have no doubt that they can afford it. It will even be a retaliatory move if this happens, I think that Vinicius can be a top forward at PSG.

I think now after Mbappe leaves, they will have bigger problems but as Enrique said, they will try to fill the place of Mbappe in the team by using all the players they have by having better teamwork.

PSG should be able to focus on finding someone who can replace Mbappe on PSG's front line, because without Mbappe it seems PSG will be a little less strong than usual, even though there are several star players there, so far their strength on the front line depends on Mbappe, Mbappe's departure will of course It will be a tough job for PSG to find a replacement this summer, at least he can play and be as productive as Mbappe, who is productive in scoring goals against opponents.

Enrique must be able to find new players and recruit them so that he can fill the current main squad, of course there must be a major overhaul to make PSG even better next season, it's not easy to maintain PSG's dominance in Ligue 1 either, of course that's what they usually do. Apart from the UCL, competition in the UCL is clearly very tight, so PSG must be able to get lots of new and productive players to make this team stronger even without Mbapee next season. PSG must be able to stand without Mbappe.

I think now after Mbappe leaves, they will have bigger problems but as Enrique said, they will try to fill the place of Mbappe in the team by using all the players they have by having better teamwork.

I believe why they havae struggling to win the champions league is because they haven’t appointed a talented manager, any manager will easily win the Ligue 1 with the quality players available because other clubs are still behind in terms of quality. The champions league as the name implies is the league for the too clubs across Europe so the competition will be more difficult and competitive and if requires a very good manager to train his team to compete.

If they appointed a good manager PSG should be able to win it when they had stars like Messi, Neymar and Mbappe but they didn’t even come close because the coach couldn’t manage them properly.

Maybe with Mbappe gone it would be easy for them but i doubt if that will be the case because no team would say a player that score goals is their problem.

Slowly but surely PSG succeeded in answering the doubts that existed when their star players left one by one but they still remained strong and could still produce the best results. Moreover, under the guidance of an experienced coach like Luis Enrique, this is very possible and we can see it this season.

I'm sure next season will still be the same and if it's just for all competitions in France they will still be the favorites as winners, but for the Champions League it's still quite far away. Regarding Vinicius going to PSG, I don't think it will be possible even though PSG can afford to buy him at such a large cost, but Real Madrid will still keep the player, especially since he is already a star at Real Madrid and of course working with his colleagues to win other titles.

Each coach has a different strategy, so it's not a mistake when you see one or two players being the top scorers on their team. Mbappe, Haaland, Messi, Ronaldo, Benzema, and a number of other star players are the target men in his team, so you have to have a different point of view about these players. I guess it's natural that players like that appear more among other players, it's because the game is built around them.

You can certainly say some star players are selfish, but not all star players can be considered selfish. The target man in a team will certainly stand out from individual achievements, but it cannot be a benchmark that they are selfish players.

Correct, Enrique. PSG cannot keep depending just on Mbappe. They've shown they can win even without Messi or Neymar. Its a major league issue to replace a player like Mbappe, though. This Vinicius to PSG discussion? All guesswork. False articles Even for a boatload of Qatari riyals, Real Madrid is not letting their golden kid go for peanuts.

The PSG has always been resilient. Losing a star, finding another. Mbappe, though, is more than simply another star. He's their top scorer. They have to locate a goal scorer who can lead the side through the Champions League.

[mammusu]

Paris Saint Germain is the best team in Ligue 1, so it is very natural that many people predict that they will still be the same even though they will appear without their star players because one by one they left the biggest team in Ligue 1. However, I also have the same belief that they can only dominate or perform well in the domestic league, but when they are in the Champions League, they are a very difficult team to compete with other big teams.

They really want the Champions League title, in fact every season they always have the same target, namely to become champions there. but no matter how much they try, they always fail and even when they have many star players, they always experience failure.

In my opinion, they must first improve the foundation of their team, before they aim for something very high, namely becoming champions in the Champions League. When they can create a solid foundation, they will be able to achieve this achievement, we can see from Manchester City's journey until they succeeded in becoming champions in the Champions League.

Because these clubs are the richest clubs in the Premier League so their competition is quite fierce in recruiting players with good potential because they have stable finances and it is easy to recruit players at high prices. Even though the most important thing is for them to be able to make their club successful somehow in order to continue to compete fiercely in the Premier League, Chelsea is interested in Manchester City's mainstay player Julian Alvarez but unfortunately Manchester City is not interested in releasing this player to Chelsea no matter what offer Chelsea gives. In my opinion Pep Guardiola will still use the services of this player even though he doesn't always play full time but Pep always uses it even if only for a short time on the field.

He is an important player and he is a replacement for Erling Haaland if Erling Haaland is rested or injured so if this player is sold who will replace Erling Haaland's role on the front line Pep Guardiola has to look for other options or implement a new strategy even though the composition of the existing players At the moment it's good enough, Pep just need to improve the performance of each player so they can appear impressive next season and provide fierce competition every season.

And he also doesn’t want to give up Alvarez, because as you noticed, situations in football can be different, and you always need to have another good player on the bench for backup.

I agree with you. Haaland's fitness is very good. However, if Haaland suffers an injury, Guardiola has Alvarez as a suitable replacement for Haaland. Alvarez is a talented player. And Alvarez has already proven his worth. Despite not getting a place in the starting XI, he managed to score a lot of goals. And the important thing is that Alvarez's goals have won Manchester City in several important matches. Manchester City will definitely not want to lose such a talented player. But personally I think Alvarez should leave Manchester City. Because he will not get a place in the starting XI if he stays with this squad.

What Pep is doing is not bad at all. He wants both his first eleven and his bench to be string so that if one is not fit or not performing well on the pitch, the replacement will not be a problem. This is what Real Madrid did and that is why you see that whoever goes out from the match will not affect the team's performance, rather the substitute will come in and turn the game around in favor of Real Madrid. If Alvarez wants to be among the first eleven which is impossible, he should go to somewhere else that will make that happen. He should not also forget that he is in a strong club.

they have to get rid of all those habits, because if they get a new star player if they still have those habits, then they will be addicted to the same as before, and that is something that is not good for them. Luis Enrique must bring a new habit, namely not being dependent on just one player, indeed in a club there are definitely players who stand out, but he must prioritize team play over individual play.

Regarding the news about Viniciuz going to Paris Saint Germain, I'm not sure about that. The reason is that Real Madrid itself is building a better team now and Viniciuz is one of their future assets. He is only 23 years old and is already a mainstay in the Real Madrid squad, so I don't think that they will let Viniciuz leave them so quickly, especially as he is a player who is predicted to be one of the new trio of players on Real Madrid's front line.
