French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[bastisisca]

Yes the French league 1 has always been dominated by the Paris saints Germany, this has being on for more than a decade now, this is probably because there isn’t any club I that league that matches there players strengths and quality. Even when the PSG wasn’t doing well at the beginning of the league this season, you could still believe no other club in the league could get more point than them at the end of the season. The players quality gap between PSG and other clubs is so much that it will be surprising to see any team ends up lifting the trophy.
About them putting more effort in the champions league matches is true, and that what they have to do because that’s where they will definitely see the teams that matches their quality and compete with. PSG have always showed more seriousness in the champions league in the recent time. This is after trying to for several years before they got to win the last two they only have. Now they want to make it three in a row and you know it will not be that easy because  other teams will definitely want to stop them.

The dominance is also dictated by the fact that Paris Saint-Germain has a lot of money to invest and has followed a growth path lasting years and years of investment made in the Parisian club, so this is the right reward and recognition of a project that has had to shell out a lot of money and significant investments, the only ones who can boast something like this are perhaps Real Madrid, and in fact they win.

Football is all about money now, a team need money always to run their activities like buying not just players but quality and world class players, any team that have good owners with money to secure sponsorship deals and also more money for the club, they will always do well because they will have money to sign world class players that can help them win trophies, and winning more trophies attract more players to join the teams because every player wants to win title, that is why teams with good owners have the quality players.

This happened to to PSG, they have money and are leading the League 1 for more than six season winning the league title back to back; the team is now complete and when they signed Luis Enrique, they have now won two Champions League titles back to back. I am impressed with the way PSG have their progress as a team. They will continue to dominate the league 1 until most of the big teams there decided to wake up and invest money in their team.

Yes, you are right, the amount of money that PSG spends and invests in their own development in the French league is something that no other team does or cannot do due to lack of capacity. To solve this problem, a club must demonstrate financial management skills, as Barcelona did. Laporte's great financial skills have helped Barcelona get out of a difficult situation.
You are right that Real Madrid spends the most money in La Liga, but with a tough opponent like Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid's investment sometimes fails. Barcelona also has investments, but they are in their academy. That is why they do not spend much money on buying players, but they produce world-class players like Messi, Lamine Yamal, Lopez and Pedri, who are worth 150 million or more.

Why is it's that the French leagues 1 it just like a simple subject to PSG they're not really putting their strength towards the league 1 in this recent years their target is always on the UEFA champions league why? And they still find a way to win the league 1 any team that is facing PSG needs to be prepared because the PSG team is too scary to play against them

The more reason I want Lyon to be consistent with them despite what, because they seem to be the only team capable enough to compete with them this season, all they need to do is, since they are focused on the UEFA champions league, they should make sure they gather as much points as possible, that's the only way they can overcome, and for Paris Saint Germain focusing more on the UEFA champions league, to me I don't really blame them, because they had really faced lots of critics about not being able to win the UEFA champions league, so now is their time they should make use of it the way it pleases them.

Paris Saint-Germain will naturally focus on the Champions League, as their goal this year is to equal the record currently held by Real Madrid. Real Madrid won the Champions League for three consecutive seasons Paris Saint-Germain has now completed two such seasons, and should they win this year, they will draw level with Real Madrid show just how difficult it is to win the Champions League 3 times in a row, while proving that they have managed to achieve exactly that. Given the way they played against Barcelona, ​​I don’t see any team in the Champions League that can match Paris Saint-Germain. Of course, the outcome of these matches always depends on on-field performance. In the French league, they might occasionally field a side with reserve players, but their squad is so strong that they are capable of winning even with those substitutes.

You just can't compare PSG's well of money to Barca academy because they are not the sae strategy. PSG has a very big and enormous budget that is as big as half of Ligue teams budgets if put together.  It has not connection with management. it is just a good and fearless spending mentality because the owner has the mind and will to spend without fear of loss. But Barca can't do that, just not too long ago, they even had to sell some TV money so they could register some players.

PSG have won the league title many times than any other club in the history of Ligue 1. The Champions League is their biggest priority right now since they became the champions last two seasons. It’s very surprising to see them winning a trophy they couldn’t win with Neymar, Messi and even Mbappe. From what I learn from this Ligue 1 competition other teams are not consistent enough to be at the same level as PSG to win the league. Yeah, PSG will lose form and people will still believe they return to their best form to play well and raise the trophy.

Marseille had the opportunity with De Zerbi, they also couldn’t stop PSG to retain what belongs to them. Monaco energy is very high this season, I can smell a trophy coming their way anytime soon.

No body will really argue much about it because every teams means of surviving as the season is on going is absolute the ability of having the money of buying the players that can fit into the team, so Paris Saint-Germain has the money of buying some selected players that can winning consistently after all some teams has the money to buy any players of their choice but the process of releasing this to buy a better players that can give them what they want, is becoming so difficult for the managers, and why some teams managers lack the vision of seeing the right players that can help the team, so Paris Saint-Germain has the money and they has been able ascertain good players that is very helpful to the team now.

PSG didn't win the UEFEA Champions League trophy with Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Leo Messi in the team rather they won without these trio playing for them. This is to pass the message that stars doesn't win you trophies but collective performance from a team does.

What is Luis Enrique working towards? He wants to equal Zinedine Zidane record of winning the UEFEA Champions League title three consecutive times. He already won two and him and his team are on their way to make it three and we know how intense things can get for them this season following their major players getting injured. Players like Ousemane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskelia, Marquinhos. These are players capable of changing an entire game on the pitch.

I've never understood the stars, it's not because you have the best bombers then you win for sure, this is the story that happened with the galacticos and what they won, very little compared to the team built with effort and carried forward over time by brand new players who did their best and much better than them.

PSG has rich owners but the club itself is not richer than Barcelona. The owners of PSG have a major part to play in most big signings because they fund  all of it but it's value is ranked 4th position below Real Madrid,  Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

Though Barcelona is having some financial problems now but the revenue generated yearly surpasses that of PSG, their debt is a major stumbling block to their recent player situations.

We are now at the level that in everything we do it revolves around money, in football being the most followed game in the World it is easier to see this situation, but in reality it is everywhere.
In fact, you could see how boxing matches organized months of prizes between old and new athletes (for business only) are starting to emerge.
Money gives you the opportunity to invest in the best possible way to improve the team, but I'm against one thing. However, investing a lot of money doesn't always lead to results. I think we also have many examples in European football.
So yes, money helps you improve the quality of performance, but not that of people.

Paris Saint-Germain has money to manage 3 other teams and Barcelona is no different but it cannot be in the slightest comparable to what the Arabs do with the money at Paris Saint-Germain, in fact in a few years they have created a team that is simply the best in Europe and has no equal, no one can think of competing currently.

Yes I know money plays a major role in every team, but not entirely, Paris Saint Germain has dominated the league for quite a while now and they've been consistent on that, and some of that also comes from good management, Yes they are rich no doubt, but trust me other teams equally has what it takes to be that good, but the question is how sure are they, like what's the guarantee that they would succeed, so to me it's not all about being rich, it's all about being able to manage what you've got, because the last time I checked Manchester City and Newcastle united of the English premier league, are equally Rich, but yet when once the season start you can't be completely sure to predict the winner at the end.

Barcelona, ​​as a club, approaches things in a very different way. They are one of the best clubs in the world, investing in young players, even those under 14, who are considered future stars. They develop these players, producing footballers who make a name for themselves globally in the years to come. We've seen many footballers demonstrate this in recent years.

PSG, on the other hand, resembles a business. Yes, they've been competing at the top of the world for a long time, but when the money runs out, their former glory won't return. I think their club culture is quite weak in this regard

In this respect, there is a big difference between Barcelona and PSG. PSG is investment-dependent and Barcelona is production-dependent. PSG is strong as long as they can spend money and buy high-quality players for high fees. But Barcelona does not have to buy too many players, rather they can continue to produce players even in financial crisis and continue to perform well.

Here, Barcelona's infrastructure is very advanced, while PSG is very advanced financially. However, I prefer Barcelona's culture over PSG's culture, you can see the love for football in Barcelona. But for PSG, it should be just a business, invest and get a return.

[püsür]

PSG has been pushing so hard to actualize their target of getting to the top,while watching the match even before I really carry PSG because they won't give Chance to hard lose or draw that match, Lyon seem to hard been a work over despite them been informed in the season. When I saw the senny mayulu goal at 72 minutes I know it's already a story for Lyon, never miscalculated in bringing them down to top the table as their target.

PSG has truly risen again after starting a rough season many even said this season PSG would struggle because they began with 3 matches without a win. But now PSG is back and the highlight was defeating Barca in the UCL. PSG play has become more comfortable and they can win by more than a goal or even keep a clean sheet, like when they beat Lyon.

Given their current level of performance it will likely be difficult for any other team to beat PSG. With their confidence soaring beating them has become a tall order for other teams. In their next match PSG will face Le Havre a side sitting at the bottom of the table and they should have no trouble securing an easy win.

Despite having their best players injured – including both wingers – they’re playing very good. They don’t build their system around any one player, and even their substitutes are just as good as the first-team players. Luis Enrique really is an excellent manager; he’s turned the team into a proper system-based side. Lyon put up a very good fight. They just lack that finishing touch. PSG have become like a well-oiled machine. It makes no difference whether they field the first team or the reserves; whichever squad they put out, they play good football as a unit. Hats off to the manager. I can’t help but wonder what he could achieve if he took charge of the national team. No matter who plays, PSG’s performance is always the same – they’re like robots; the team presses for the full 90 minutes. They’re missing four key players, yet they’re tearing apart the so-called ‘unstoppable’ Barça – they’re a completely different team, really.

Yes this young talent promotion is the only reason i keep respecting Barcelona till now, for a long time Barcelona have not spent much in the transfer window but still keeps dominating in all rectification.
Even with this lack of financial strength Barcelona faces now i won't write them off trophy contenders but not to the extent of putting them  side by side
with PSG  because PSG is much better than them as they spend money landing there desired players.
As for seeing PSG as a business orientated team without love for football is what i don't accept, that era of business orientated policies has ended that is why they appear this dangerous to any team facing them.

The example that you are making mentioned of Barcelona been ranked above PSG in terms of richest clubs, doesn'tean that currently Barcelona can outspend PSG when it comes to the transfer market. You should know that Barcelona as a club is just trying to get out of a major financial crisis and has a huge Dept still to pay. This is or the case when it comes to PSG as they can spend as much as they can going into every transfer market.Untill Barcelona get out of there financial problems they can compete with the rest of the top clubs, in terms of spending I Europe.

[Jessie2121]

Le Havre vs PSG who do you think is getting the 3point in this game? PSG of course. This game tomorrow will be one of the easiest game for PSG in the Ligue 1 because the team they play against isn't sure if they can survive the Ligue 1 this season because from all indications they might remain 18th till the end of this season. Marseille could not beat Le Havre, it was a lucky one for Marseille that it ended 4-3 for a team that is 18th on the table so I expect PSG to train with Le Havre, beat them without allowing them score up to 3 goals like they did against Marseille.
