French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Hirose UK]

French League 1 is not a very good league, to be honest. Of course, what I am comparing with are the Premier League, Serie A and La Liga. These leagues are behind in terms of competition. Like the Bundesliga, in League 1, the possibility of a single team becoming champion is mentioned at the beginning of each year. PSG is the most known of these teams. Success must come for them now in the UCL, almost everyone is sure that they will win League 1. Big surprises may occur, of course, we all know the Leverkusen example, but if such a situation does not occur, PSG will dominate the league for many years to come.

As long as conditions in Ligue1 remain the same as last season until they continue without stronger competition as happened in the Premier League, Serie A and La Liga. It will always be difficult for PSG to win the Champions League even though they have players who are used to competing in other leagues before making it to the PSG squad. And next season the PSG coach will use a different method so that the PSG team can get to the Champions League final next season while still being champions in Ligue 1 as usual.

If you compare Ligue 1 with other competitions such as the English League, Bundesliga, Serie A and also La Liga, it is clear that there are really very significant differences that we can even find differences in the competition within this competition.
Ligue 1 is not able to show very competitive competition because there is only one team that dominates, in fact Ligue 1 is far behind other leagues that have recently become popular, such as the SPL from Saudi.
But in the future, I sure there will be quite significant differences, including the development of every other team will definitely be much better and PSG dominance will decrease slightly because they certainly won't have truly perfect performance like before.
Belief that Ligue 1 can get better can also be proven by several team that previously performed poorly, now showing their performance is capable of developing with big changes.

It is Ligue 1, it is not the Premier League. PSG should under any and all circumstances still easily win the title. It is too one sided in that league. PSG has got billions backing the team. No other club comes close to that. And it is not like Mbappe leaves an empty space and they play with 10 men only. Someone will fill the gap and they have several top players sitting on the bench most of the time. There is a chance that several other players now thrive and become much better exactly because Mbappe is gone.

Yes, I also don't expect much from the other teams in Ligue 1, because their quality is still far behind if we compare it with Paris Saint Germain, that's what makes Paris Saint Germain have to be able to continue to dominate the league, if not then in my opinion it's a failure for them, because after all they are the best team from any point of view, there is no reason for them not to dominate. Missing Mbappe? In my opinion, that cannot be the reason because in terms of player composition they are still better than other teams.

I agree with you that this league is too one-sided, we can see significant differences between one team and another team. This is why it is not surprising that Ligue 1 is a boring league at the moment, because we cannot see very competitive competition, it is almost certain that Paris Saint Germain will be champions again next season with the strength they have, that is quite easy.

They are simply the richest team in Ligue 1, although considering how Chelsea has been doing lately, it might not be the only reason. In my opinion PSG also ran too many experiments with coaches. Luis Enrique did ok before he went to PSG, but to me it never felt as if he was a top coach. He won titles with prime Barcelona and the question is how much of it was his work and how much of the success was the natural result of the player's quality?

Xabi Alonso has truly proven that he can turn a no name team into a beast. He has proven it. PSG also had Pochettino and I don't like him at all. Never understood why PSG wanted him, but it might also have to do with the fact that the sheikh isn't actually a pro in football. It is one of his hobbies.

But we will see. My guess is that PSG will of course win Ligue 1, but they don't have a chance in the Champions League. Group stage yes, round of 16 and maybe quarterfinals, but then it will be game over.

PSG didn’t give Pochettino any chances, I don’t even understand why they hired him, in any case, he didn’t even have a chance to prove himself, by the way, Chelsea is sure that he would have achieved more if he had been given more time, in my opinion this is one of the most underrated coach.

Enrique is clearly a top coach, and I think he proved this at PSG, given the resources that were available to him, he achieved excellent results, and stopped just one step short of the final. Now it’s important how he works in the off-season, how he strengthens PSG’s attack, after all, replacing Mbappe will not be easy, and at least he will have one more season to achieve better results.

So far PSG has never given much time to its coaches to make many changes at PSG, if you pay attention of course you can see that so far PSG has only signed their coach for no more than two years, next season even Enrique has entered his last year with PSG, so he is required to be able to make a better contribution next season by winning the Champions League so that then his fate will not be the same as Pochettino,  What PSG is doing is of course quite difficult to understand because they want to see PSG develop rapidly in a short time and of course it will be very difficult for any coach who is currently there to do.

Pochettino actually gave a lot of changes to Chelsea and he managed to build a strong foundation at Chelsea by relying on young players, but unfortunately he also didn't get much time at Chelsea because the Chelsea owners also want to see Chelsea rise instantly, at the moment Enrique of course has a huge burden to meet the expectations given by PSG,  But I think next season he will certainly be able to do it, considering that he is a very experienced coach both in the domestic league, Europe and even in terms of coaching the national team.

He has been a coach for 15 years now and to be honest, he won the title in Ligue 1 with PSG and the Coup de France. All good, but why is he underrated? There is a reason why it worked with Tottenham for so long, but not with these top clubs like PSG and Chelsea. PSG, at all cost, wants to win the Champions League, but they figured it might not be possible with him. If you are coaching these clubs, you have no time to develop a team because success is required instantly. But everybody knows that. It is still ok if he takes on those jobs because, why not?

Then again I have no idea who Enzo Maresca is, never heard of him before. Wondering what Chelsea is now hoping for. But as you can see, coaches become more rare these days. Ancelotti will most likely soon retire, Klopp retired (at least temporarily), Mourinho not available, Guardiola might do the same like Klopp or take over a national team.

The clubs have no choice but to go with unknown coaches very soon. Nagelsmann gone as well from club football for now.

Pochettino failed, therefore Enrique was hired. It's like throwing coaches at the problem and hoping something sticks. Leverkusen's Xabi Alonso is performing miracles with a cheap squad. Friends, thats coaching

The owners of PSG may be wealthy, but they don't know how to develop a squad. Imagine handing a monkey a typewriter and expecting Shakespeare. You might get some excellent lines, but it won't be great. PSG will likely keep dominating Ligue 1, but they'll keep losing the Champions League. Yes, money can't buy happiness; or a Champions League trophy

The difference in quality of the league sometimes determines one team can dominate so easily and for example we can see how PSG can be one of the strongest teams there. Moreover they have very good finances so they can buy any player they want even though the overall quality of the team is important in a team to achieve success. Losing Mbappe will not be a big problem for PSG because they have several other players who can fill the void in the position left by him.

For Ligue 1 I don't see much difference and PSG will still dominate. But what PSG need to think about is how they can compete for the Champions League title. This task is considered quite difficult and Luis Enrique has a big responsibility in delivering success in the Champions League.

Yes, money can't buy happiness; or a Champions League trophy

That is 100% exactly the problem. Chelsea had tons of money and I remember when Mourinho was in his prime and they won several titles within three years. Money has to meet quality decisions, otherwise it is as you said: throwing coaches at problems.

I remember when Tuchel was hired and had issues with Leonardo from day one. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think there was tons of trouble because Tuchel wasn't allowed to sign players that he thought would be perfect.

I know that the sporting director is often responsible for signing players, but does anyone here think that Pep Guardiola, Klopp or Ancelotti would be ok if they didn't have a say in which players to sign? Never. All the scouting and stuff, yes somebody else has to do it. But these top coaches know 100% what the missing piece of their puzzle is. And they all have in common that they know how to spot young talents and when to give them a chance, both in less and in very important games.

But to be fair, we all can see how difficult it is to win the Champions League and how close these games end and how they got decided. Guardiola only won the CL once with Manchester City and they got tons of money and an amazing coach. Often times the difference between winner and loser is so marginally small.

The reason was because Nasser Al-Khelaifi was dissatisfied with Pochetti because he failed to bring PSG to Champions League glory, which caused Nasser Al-Khelaifi to terminate his contract with several coaches because he was very motivated by the Champions. Nasser Al-Khelaifi has also spent quite a lot of money to buy players who won the Champions League title so of course he will not be satisfied with just winning the League and Copa.

Money can buy happiness as long as it is implemented correctly and unfortunately PSG cannot do that. They have spent quite a bit of money to sign players but they still cannot achieve positive results outside of France. They will still be kings in Ligue One but for the Champions League they will never be able to get it as long as they take the wrong steps in their development.

I think a change of coach will not change anything and the need for a proportional management attitude in processing the players is very necessary for maximum results. Because so far I haven't seen any real changes and PSG seems to have to sort out their internal problems first before talking about their next opportunities.

The PSG management tried hard to strengthen the squad and win the Champions League title. The best players in the world were added to the squad for huge sums of money by the PSG management. But their biggest mistake was that they did not hire an experienced coach. The squad had many star players. Star players are very difficult to handle. This is not possible without an experienced coach. I think this was the biggest mistake of PSG management.

But last season PSG management appointed an experienced coach like Luis Enrique. Now if the PSG management gives Luis Enrique full freedom and big funds then maybe Luis Enrique will be able to strengthen the PSG team.

They have spent quite a bit of money to sign players but they still cannot achieve positive results outside of France. They will still be kings in Ligue One but for the Champions League they will never be able to get it as long as they take the wrong steps in their development.

Efforts to recruit star players who spend large amounts of money are not only carried out for the purpose of winning prestigious titles or winning titles in several competitions, but this is all done by PSG to increase the popularity of League 1 so that it is known by most football fans and the traffic of League 1 will also increase to very large.
But I support what you say, which is that you should bring in 1 or 2 professional players and the rest recruit young players who have the opportunity to be developed into great players in the future and also provide big profits every season.
Like popular teams from other leagues, they always prioritize the quality of players to be able to get satisfactory results in every appearance and not just think about big name star players.

I think a change of coach will not change anything and the need for a proportional management attitude in processing the players is very necessary for maximum results. Because so far I haven't seen any real changes and PSG seems to have to sort out their internal problems first before talking about their next opportunities.

Yep, we can take the example of teams from other leagues such as Man City, which at that time was successful in winning the UCL title because retaining their coach for longer gave the coach the opportunity to prove that the coach could provide success.
And PSG should be motivated by Man City strategy of not firing Enrique and giving him a chance in the next few seasons and I'm sure Enrique can give it all if PSG is able to retain the coach without having to fire him.

They should focus to strengthen their team to win Ligue 1 instead of Champions League, there's no guarantee they will win Ligue 1 especially without Mbappe, I'm sure they will struggle and we will see a competition in Ligue 1. PSG to win Champions League is just a dream that impossible to achieve.

If PSG didn't win Ligue 1, we all know what the cause is.

[piebeyb]

For Ligue 1 I don't see much difference and PSG will still dominate. But what PSG need to think about is how they can compete for the Champions League title. This task is considered quite difficult and Luis Enrique has a big responsibility in delivering success in the Champions League.

Even without Mbappe next season, PSG will still dominate Ligue 1 because they have enough financial support to get the best players in their main squad, Luis Enrique will of course recruit players who can replace Mbappe at PSG for next season, Ligue 1 seems to be continuing Dominated by PSG, unless they really go bankrupt and have financial problems, this team will definitely lose balance, several players in the current main squad can still be relied on to bring this team to champions again in Ligue 1.

Luis Enrique of course also wants to achieve the desired target, namely winning the UCL trophy, of course it is a tough task to do but he must be confident by recruiting several new productive players who can fill the void and replace Mbappe's position to be able to bring PSG to at least reach the UCL final. next season, as we know PSG always fails to reach the important round in the UCL, that's why they have to learn a lot to be able to recruit lots of very productive young players in order to achieve their desired goals, this is Enrique's challenge to bring PSG to the important round in the UCL later. .

[Zlantann]

But in the future, I sure there will be quite significant differences, including the development of every other team will definitely be much better and PSG dominance will decrease slightly because they certainly won't have truly perfect performance like before.
Belief that Ligue 1 can get better can also be proven by several team that previously performed poorly, now showing their performance is capable of developing with big changes.

League One will become competitive only when other clubs have access to the kind of funds PSG has. Other clubs are not buoyant enough to buy quality players like PSG. However, we cannot rule out that a club might be lucky to have the right coach and some committed players who can give PSG a good chase for the League trophy. An example is what happened in the Bundesliga last season when Xabi Alonso used a set of unknown players and made history. Bayern Munich had better players and training staff but Bayer Leverkusen was fortunate to win the title last season.    

PSG didn’t give Pochettino any chances, I don’t even understand why they hired him, in any case, he didn’t even have a chance to prove himself, by the way, Chelsea is sure that he would have achieved more if he had been given more time, in my opinion this is one of the most underrated coach.

PSG is just impatient with coaches. They were so obsessed with winning the Champions League that they saw other titles as worthless. Almost all the coaches they have sacked from Thomas Tuchel to Mauricio Pochettino performed well but they were sacked just because of their inability to win the UCL. But it looks like they have become mature and patient since they have not sacked Luis Enrique after failing to achieve the club's long-term dream.    

[Palakka]

They should focus to strengthen their team to win Ligue 1 instead of Champions League, there's no guarantee they will win Ligue 1 especially without Mbappe, I'm sure they will struggle and we will see a competition in Ligue 1. PSG to win Champions League is just a dream that impossible to achieve.

If PSG didn't win Ligue 1, we all know what the cause is.

It's quite strange with what you said when you say that PSG should focus on the current ligue 1 trophy instead of the champions league, try to pay attention to ligue 1, don't they win the ligue every season unless there is a team that is able to break their dominance in ligue 1 so far and that happens almost once every 10 seasons,  currently PSG has a star squad and has quality that is far from other teams in the ligue 1, but for some reason you doubt they can't win Ligue 1 trophy even without Mbappe?
During this time Mbappe has developed rapidly into a star at PSG and even when he was still playing in Monaco before Mbappe was not star player in Ligue 1, at that time without Mbappe in the squad, PSG was able to dominate Ligue 1, then why can't PSG do it now without Mbappe?

Mbappe has indeed had a great influence on PSG attacking line so far, but that does not mean that without Mbappe, PSG will lose its dominance in ligue 1 next season, currently what PSG expects is the Champions League trophy and without star players it is of course difficult for PSG to be able to compete in the Champions League next season, that's why currently PSG is more inclined to strengthen its squad every season just can for get the Champions League trophy for the first time in the club history.

[MAAManda]

I agree with the people who think Mbappe's departure will decrease the interest in the Ligue 1 more as of next season. Because this league is already not one of the most attracting ones you know. 

But at least watching some superstar players like Mbappe has kept the league more alive. But now there is going to be a quality decrease for sure. I don't know how they can attract real interest in this league either. Investors are preferring leagues such as the Premier League for investment the most. I don't feel like this will change in the near future. Nothing comes to my mind to change this in France for now unless they make changes in taxation law.

What's the reason? is it because Kylian Mbappe is a superstar player? I don't agree with this opinion, Ligue 1 already has its own people's interest, and before Mbappe went to PSG, people were still watching this league, remember that the main magnet in Ligue 1 is PSG, not Kylian Mbappe. However, because nowadays sport is no longer just sport but sportstainment, I think there's a little truth in the fact that Kylian Mbappe has his own base, which makes whatever he does, the decisions he makes become the highlight and entertainment.

[Frankolala]

Yes, money can't buy happiness; or a Champions League trophy

It is because of poor management and lack of taste for good coach that is PSG problem. If not they can use their money to buy any players or coach that they want in other for them to be successful in UCL. If you look at Manchester city, after the Arab brother bought the club money was pumped in and currently the club is very strong.

Same can be done in PSG. Look at Real Madrid, they got money and all the world class players are with them, they even took that which PSG could not manage in order for them to win UCL which is Mbappe.

I agree with you that the PSG management was very impatient with the coaches. But I won't say that the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel and Pochettino was wrong. These two coaches are quite experienced. But they don't have the ability to handle a lot of star players. Tuchel was the coach of Bayern Munich for a while. Tuchel was not successful with Munich either. So PSG management's decision to sack Tuchel, Galtier and Pochettino was correct. They should have appointed an experienced coach earlier.

Luis Enrique is the new coach of PSG. If the PSG management gives Luis Enrique full freedom to shape the squad, PSG could see a strong squad in the next few years. A team like Manchester City has been built by Guardiola as the best club in the Premier League. So Luis Enrique will be successful if he gets enough opportunities.

Everyone is aware that PSG has been dumping cash about like confetti. Indeed, it has drawn notice to them and somewhat boosted Ligue 1. But the large trophy hasnt been theirs, has it?

They need to be more intelligence. Not only getting the biggest stars, but creating an actual squad. Observe Man City; their combination of young players and superstars makes them champions. PSG ought to have that.

Lets see what this Luis Enrique guy can do. He's had a solid history. Even the greatest coach, though, requires the ideal combination of players. Allow him time and encouragement, and perhaps PSG is more than simply a collection of flashy names.
