French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[changaa]

You're right to an extent, did they win back to back with confidence? Yes, did they struggle to achieve that? Yes my reason is that they didn't play the Champions league unbeaten, the only team that wasn't beaten last season was Arsenal, also the final was very tough for them, tbey really struggled against Arsenal's tough defense but managed to draw and won with a penalty shootout so you saying they didn't struggle to win is not really true but i believe they'll be ready for a tougher challenge this season and working on making sure they maintain the confidence to try win it again.

The first Champions League was the most satisfying, the second the most deserved, but i don't know if the third will happen, because it would beat all its records, it would come close to the record of the team from the Spanish capital, and i don't think Real Madrid will stand by and watch helplessly, like many other teams. .

PSG didn't win the Champions League twice by mistake they worked hard for their success. If the win the league for the third time it means just one thing the have the squad to defend their win. They might not be my favorite for the next season but if they put in more energy into winning the next season's champions league it will only mean one thing Luis Enrique has all it takes to retain the best manager in Europe.

Paris Saint-Germain undoubtedly won deservedly, and we must give them credit for this. If i really had to find a nitpick, it would be the fact that he plays in a championship that allows him to rest much more than other teams, given that they win the championship several days earlier, and this at the same time gives him the opportunity to play Champions League matches with more rest.

They have all it takes to win consecutive domestic games to take absolute control of the league, that way, they'll not be under pressure when the UEFA Champions League knockout stages kicks off.

They've won the European Championship for the second consecutive time, that's enough motivation to go all out for the third consecutive time even when we all know it'll be difficult to achieve.

I believe that this is the most important Champions League to win for Luis Enrique. It is my personal thought, but i believe that this represents much more than the others, simply because it would equal the number of consecutive Champions League titles won by Real Madrid, thus tying the record with the Spanish team, and becoming the most victorious coach in the entire history of Paris Saint-Germain.

Don't doubt Luis Enrique. What currently shapes Paris Saint-Germain best is his tactics. He's become the man who changes the game's tactics from the kickoff. Many teams are now trying to play like Paris Saint-Germain, giving the ball to the opponent at the kickoff and then settling into attack. He's a coach who knows Paris Saint-Germain very well, and I think winning their third Champions League title is not impossible. As for the difference between him and Zidane, Luis Enrique built this squad himself and brought it to this level. He wasn't given a ready-made team. That alone is a success in my opinion.

I absolutely do not doubt Luis Enrique, everything that Paris Saint-Germain, in addition to the Ligue 1 won, is solely and exclusively thanks to Luis Enrique. Winning two Champions Leagues in a row is absolutely not for everyone. Despite being a coach who previously did not bring great results at Roma or the national team, at Paris Saint-Germain he has found his reality and is managing it very well.

However, rest assured that defending a title is far more difficult than winning it in the first place. Sustaining success over consecutive seasons is no easy feat that is precisely why to date only Real Madrid has managed to win the UEFA Champions League trophy three times in a row. While Psg has indeed won the UEFA Champions League twice consecutively matching Madrid record will not be easy. Last season, I felt PSG had certain weaknesses particularly in defense and their title win could even be considered lucky given that they secured the trophy after a penalty shootout victory against Arsenal.

Enrique certainly has ambitious goals for next season, aiming to match Madrid record, but it won't be simple especially given the fierce competition for the UCL trophy and the major changes many teams have undergone. PSG is currently quite dominant in Ligue 1 and I predict they will win the league title again next season. However I believe they will face significant challenges in their quest for the UCL trophy.

Luis Enrique was also successful at Barcelona, ​​​​then he played in the semi-finals of the UEFA Euro for the Spanish national team. His highest achievement was for Barcelona, ​​​​he won 9 titles for Barcelona in a total of three seasons from 2014-2017. So far, he has had the most success at Barcelona. His statistics were not unusual in the Spanish national team either. Now he is also bringing success to PSG one after another. In other words, Luis Enrique is a coach who is very consistent and a very high-quality coach. We should not have any doubts about his talent. He is not proving himself at PSG, but rather he has shown his ability at Barcelona.

I don't understand why you keep bringing up Luis Enrique's Roma and national team? I talked about this topic in your similar post yesterday, but you're talking about Roma today too. Roma is the beginning of Luis Enrique's career, so that's a previous event, and haven't you seen how much he's done at Barcelona in the meantime? Luis Enrique has nothing more to prove, because what he's done at Barcelona is what makes him one of the best.
That's why there's no doubt about his talent, he's won the UCL twice in a row and if he can win the UCL for the third time in a row with PSG this season, then there's nothing surprising there either, because he's already a great coach, and he can show something like that, because he's proven his excellence a long time ago, not that he's done the biggest achievement of his life by coming to PSG, because he's already done much bigger achievements then this in barca.

Yes, that’s right. Paris Saint-Germain is a team that has ample time to rest, where it allowing them to properly recover the stamina of several of their key players. And they’ve used this to focus on the Champions League, managing their player rotation very effectively. Paris Saint-Germain’s strength is also bolstered by players who possess a winning mentality and are ready to compete at the highest level in soccer. Over the past five seasons, they’ve dominated Ligue 1 with great finesse. They’ve also dominated the Champions League with two consecutive titles. So I personally believe that PSG has benefited greatly from those situations. But I’m a little unsure that that PSG will be able to dominate the Champions League again next season given the many other great teams that will also be competing fiercely to win the tournament. And it seems that several other major teams longtime fixtures in the Champions League have undergone major overhauls and will be tough competitors. Perhaps PSG will face formidable challenges from them. However Paris Saint-Germain will still remain a strong contender for the title. And they are a team that cannot be underestimated in the Champions League or even in their domestic league.

I understand that this is just a friendly match and PSG isn't playing at full strength, so it doesn't really mean anything. But a 3-0 result is pretty funny, considering that in this friendly they were supposed to set the standard for a team that just won the Champions League. Especially since they'll be facing Manchester United in their next friendly, with results like this it's possible that United could beat them, too lol.

Of course, let's say that even if a friendly match is a result that you don't expect from the French champions and the European champions, but it only makes us understand one thing, that Luis Enrique is simply testing the resources of his team to ensure that he can have a clearer idea of the players he also has on the bench.

Some leagues like France League 1 is something that fans know the end from the beginning and that's why I do see it as boring and unexciting. League 1 will be starting on the 21st of this month and here we are almost certain about who the winner will be unlike the seria A, English Premier League or Laliga. This near certainty league winner prediction is always for League one and German Bundesliga. It won't be long before what happened in the Italian Seria A will happen in the France league one. Lens performance last season is promising and should they focus on the league more than the champions League (because they don't stand any chance), it will be easier for them to overtake PSG who will be concentrating more on the champions League believing that France League 1 belongs to them already. I will be waiting to see any team that will be equal to this task because PSG dominance is spoiling the fun of the game.

Unfortunately the French championship has this flaw, the fact of having a team completely unrelated to the rest of the championship. Paris Saint-Germain is a team of such an excessive level compared to the other competitors that it is already known from the start of the championship that they will win and then actually win several days before the end.

I predict that Paris Saint-Germain, both the coach and the players, will work very hard and be highly motivated this year to win the Champions League for the third time. Many of their players are sure to want to make history by winning the Champions League for the third time. Similarly, Luis Enrique wants to be a part of that history. Paris Saint-Germain has become magnificent since Mbappé left the team. It's true that Real Madrid has assembled a good squad this year, but these players need at least a year of playing together to develop chemistry.

I believe that to put the other teams in difficulty, Paris Saint-Germain will not have to particularly change their game structure, much less the starting players, nor the players in the squad. He has enormous potential and if he doesn't win the Champions League, in my opinion, it will only be due to a question of unfavorable episodes.

[banana33]

Lannakosa didn't write that fans will stand against Luis Enrique if he doesn't win this season's Champions League. Rather, he said that fans will see reasons with the Spaniard. In my view, Nasser Al-Khelaifi shouldn't bother or sack Enrique even if he doesn't win any trophy for two seasons. PSG fans should see him as an idol because he turned them into a European powerhouse. Was a place in the above poet that it was said that people are criticizing the PSG coach?

I believe that neither the president of Paris Saint-Germain, nor the fans, have any intention of going against the grain with regards to the coach on the bench. Luis Enrique is the most successful coach in the history of Paris Saint-Germain and, even if he had a bad season, you couldn't blame him for anything, given that he made the French club win their first Champions League.

And why have you committed what he did for Barcelona? Did he not win the treble with them? They're no longer seem the way they use to be seen, now they're been played with respect.
They shared points with Manchester United during their final preseason game today, up next will be on Wednesday when they will be facing another Premier League side consecutively. They previously won Tottenham Hotspur during the super cup finals last season, they will try to win the same against Aston Villa on Wednesday.
