French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Fiatless]

They aren't, however, PSG remains unrivaled in Ligue 1. Therefore, their focus is primarily on the UCL, but they haven't neglected Ligue 1 and other leagues, where PSG is certainly also aiming for another quadruple title like last season.

Anyway, regarding Donarrumma, so far, we've only heard rumors that PSG and Manchester City have held direct talks. As of now, the asking price is around €45 million to €50 million.

They would have to take all competitions seriously because the UCL has other strong sides. PSG has no guarantee that they will retain the trophy.

Manchester City will not pay €50 million for a player who has less than one year in his contract. PSG will have to reduce the asking price if they want Gianluigi Donnarumma to leave because no club will buy a goalkeeper at such a high price.

This amount of money is actually possible for a player with one year left on his contract, but it's unwise to pay that much for a goalkeeper. Therefore, if Paris Saint-Germain wants to sell their goalkeeper, they have to consider the price. No team would pay him that much with his contract expiring. While he's a very important player for Manchester City, City could sign him for free after a year. I'm sure they've held discussions regarding the player. If the Italian goalkeeper wants to join Manchester City, he can stay at Paris Saint-Germain for another year.

€25 million euros seems like a fair price. No matter how good Donnarumma is, no club would pay the amount PSG is asking for a goalkeeper that has got just one year left on his contract. Also, PSG should know they don't have the upper hand. If they don't sell him this summer, they would still pay his wages and lose him for free next the summer. However, if they sell him right now, they would get some money back, which can be reinvested in the squad.

Donnarumma's controversy with PSG is quite surprising. Last season, goalkeeper Donnarumma's saves were key to PSG's success in UCL. From saving two penalties against Liverpool, five crucial saves against Arsenal in the semifinals, to a clean sheet in the final against Inter. In big moments, he consistently made the difference for PSG.

Donnarumma felt important to the club and demanded a salary increase, but PSG refused, leading to his exclusion from the squad. Now, reports are circulating that Man City are interested in his services, but the exorbitant price tag has made many clubs change their minds. If Donnarumma's contract isn't extended next season, he will be a free agent, and PSG will certainly lose out. If this happens, PSG will let another quality player go for free formerly Mbappé, now Donnarumma.

I don't know why this year's transfer market has been charactarized by drama between clubs and players over contracts looking at the present situation with Dannarumma and PSG the player has already decided for a move away from this PSG team and it should respected

Might still be a strategy to scare the interested clubs away from snatching the goalkeeper from their hands, if their game plan is to keep him and not sell him until the one season left until his career expires. Whereas for interested clubs that wants to buy him, I doubt if any of them would want to waste such money, and better not leaving the keeper until his contract expires.

I don't think PSG wants Donnarumma to remain in the club because of some reason which includes his high wages. They have already gotten a replacement, Lucas Chevalier. Maybe they want to make money from his transfer fee. I am sure that many clubs will be scared away until the French outfit reduces the fee. His contract will expire next year, and PSG might not get any amount since he would be free to move to any club he wishes.

I don't know what is happening in the world of football nowadays why will a club like PSG be letting Donnarumma leave the team just because of his high wages like is it this season he started taking that amount? He was instrumental for team I their outing in the champions League competition last season and now they no longer want him because they have a replacement for him already who is probably taking less than his salary, they should reduce his transfer fee so that clubs will rush to sign him but keeping him in the team when he is not going to be used will only reduce his chances of getting a better offer from good clubs.

It's said that Luis Enrique also doesn't like Donnarumma playing style, so PSG intention to sell him isn't just about his salary issues. With Donnarumma contract ending next season, PSG will certainly try to push him to leave this summer so they can get profit from transfer fees. I think with Donnarumma quality, he will eventually find a new club, Manchester United and Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing him.

For a goalkeeper of Gianlugi Donnarumma's quality, €20 million I think is a bargain. Manchester City's Ederson Moraes who recently returned back to training missed Manchester City's first game of the league campaign through injury and at the moment, I don't think he's the ideal man to stand in-between the sticks for the club this season and for Trafford, I also don't see him as the quality goalkeeper for the club's first choice goalkeeper. Bringing Donnarumma to the club will significantly improve the Manchester City team so they should go all out for him.

I am still wondering what the plan is at PSG for a goal keeper, Donarrumma is their best currently, his performance is undoubtedly very beneficial and of great contribution to PSG but why they want to sell him now is something I do not know a d even Manchester City who wants to buy him over currently has a good goal keeper who do not really need to be replaced at this time except they have some other plan, but this move is going totally be very beneficial to Manchester City and even Donnarumma.

Monaco is the team I am looking forward to this season. I know they can't compete with PSG for the league, but I like to see how well they try. Also, I would like to see what they can get out of  Pogba and Ansu Fati. Pogba is a player I like, and even though I don't expect much from him, I would like to see how far he can fight to get back into the game. As for Fati, he has dealt with a lot of injuries, and his career seems over before it even started, but he is still young. He is still about 23 years old and has a lot of time to get back into the game. I don't know when they will start playing fully, but I'm looking forward to it.

Manchester City will not pay €50 million for a player who has less than one year in his contract. PSG will have to reduce the asking price if they want Gianluigi Donnarumma to leave because no club will buy a goalkeeper at such a high price.    

I think Man City will be forced to pay if they really want the play. That is not too much money for a player like Donnarumma in today's market. If PSG don't act fast, there are other competitors and even Saudi Arabia on the table, except the player refuses to go and given the fact that PSG has already gotten a replacement, he would not want to remain in the club.

However, if they sell him right now, they would get some money back, which can be reinvested in the squad.

Given his performance last season, perhaps €25 million is still considered cheap compared to a player who hasn't proven himself as consistently as Donnarumma. The only reason PSG would sell Donnarumma at that price is because his contract expires next season, so letting him go in that situation wouldn't be profitable for PSG. They're also not experiencing financial difficulties and are probably not like other teams who only consider profit when selling players they deem no longer necessary for their managers. Honestly, this is not what we expected because Donnarumma was a player who contributed quite a lot to PSG last season, but every decision has consequences.

PSG is playing Angers SCO today in what I will call a tricky match. It is tricky because Alexandre Dujeux, the coach of Angers, have dramatically improved the team so much that the have one conceded one goal in their entire pre-season matches and up to their first league match this season, although they have not also been scoring much goals too which further point to the fact that the match is not going to see much goals. Consequently, we may likely see a goalless draw, a sad result that many bettors will not want to see tonight.

Yes, they want to sell Donnarumma this season, thinking about financial gain. Since PSG's contract with Donnarumma will end next season, if Donnarumma leaves the club next season, PSG will not get any money for this transfer. Now, there is no doubt about it, Donnarumma is PSG's main goalkeeper and he plays a great role in the goalpost for PSG in every match. In that case, if PSG sells him to another club at the moment, which player will they bring to the club instead? PSG must try to bring a goalkeeper of better quality than Donnarumma to their club instead of Donnarumma. If PSG has any weakness in the goalkeeper position, then no matter how good they perform on the field, they may have to give up and lose. So, PSG should definitely think carefully about this matter and then decide to sell this goalkeeper to another club.

I think €25 million should be a fair price for PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma especially since his contract is close to expiration.  Paris saints Germain should lower the price if truly they want to allow goal keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to join Manchester City before the transfer Windows closes. This price of €50 million is too high for a player with one year contract and of course Gianluigi Donnarumma will be happy to join Manchester City to explore the English premier league  and to also have the level of exposure he has been receiving in PSG. He would want to joined a club that has the tenacity of competing in the UEFA league champions league.

[SatoPrincess]

I am not stressing about PSG's performance in the first match, rather I consider it as a normal performance. PSG is undoubtedly a team that has performed well and they are the best team in the French league, so we always have high expectations from them and we think that PSG should win every match in the French league by a big margin, but the performance of a team is not always the same. For example, in the first match we saw PSG win but we did not see PSG win by a big margin, what I mean is that the win is important, whether that win came by a big margin or a small margin. Those who are regretting this issue may not have to regret it for long because in the next matches of the French league, PSG will definitely perform better than the first match and ensure a big win.

PSG are in top form and currently have one of the best squads in Europe but are not unbeatable. This is the league games and they are sure to encounter tough games like this as long as they compete in the league. Against Nantes they played away to a tough opponent and they were the better team in the game but just didn’t score more goals. They got a win, this is a positive result for the team.

A win for a start is a good motivation into the new season but the slim margin is a point of concern which makes it clear that some work needs to be done on the team. If I am to judge by last seasons performance I will there is currently no team in the league 1 that will be of a reasonable threat to PSG but this season I can not tell until we are some weeks into the season.  

[LUCKMCFLY]

True the difference in quality between PSG and the other teams in the league is too much if any team is to win the French ligue 1 anytime soon then then they really needs to bring in quality players to strengthen their squad by investing in players that and that means that they will have to slash out the cash to get top players to bring into their teams

There is no other way, it is the only solution unless you have a coach like the style of Luis Enrique, Hansi Flick or even like the Chelsea coach , or any other coach who can integrate his players and make a similar system as Xabi did with Leverkusen, it is difficult but possible.

Well, the things that the PSG team has is confidence, it is the security that their coach gives them, Luis Enrique is an icon for PSG, I understand that many are waiting for PSG to fall as a team, in Ligue 1 that will not happen, the only option is for another Ligue 1 team to become PSG's main contender, it is the only way I see to dethrone them and it is extremely Difficult.

The best team in Ligue 1 is PSG there is now doubt. They have a very strong squad and they have an experienced coach like Enrique. Until another team in Ligue 1 is able to form such a strong squad, it will not be difficult for PSG to dominate Ligue 1.

PSG's performance in the first match of this season against Nantes was not as strong as expected . but, Luis Enrique did not keep the experienced players of his squad in the starting XI  in this match. PSG will play a home match against Angers today. We do not know whether Enrique will keep players like dembele, hakimi and kvaratskhelia in the starting xi  today. If psg  plays with their main squad, I think  they will be able to secure a big win.
