Metz battled Saint Etienne at home to stay in the league.Considering Metz's performance in the last few weeks, it was difficult for Metz to win this game.We saw that they succeeded.They managed to win the game 2-1 despite leading 2-1 at half time.I think that was the maximum that Metz could do, going into the game with 10 men after Diallo was red carded in the 5th minute.If they could have continued with 10 men, we would be talking about different things now. With Diallo's red card in the 5th minute, I think this was the maximum that Metz could do.If they could have continued with 10 men, we would be talking about different things now.Saint Etienne scored in the last minute of extra time despite finding so many positions and reached the chance of promotion to the league.

Dependence on one player will make a team lose a lot of its strength if that player is gone. So far, Luis Enrique doesn't seem to be too dependent on Kylian Mbappe, especially because the player has reportedly left at the end of the season. Enrique made several rotations and kept Mbappe in several matches, but because of his quality, Mbappe was still able to be in the line-up in big matches such as the Champions League and several Ligue 1 matches.

Kylian Mbappe's departure to another team will certainly provide additional work for the coach. It is difficult to find a replacement who is as productive as Mbappe for PSG, but I am sure Enrique has a good plan for next season even though Mbappe has been declared out.

Mbappe's transfer saga is officially over now.

As per the latest announcement from real madrid. Mbappe has been announcing as a new player.

Since the previous season, Mbappe has wanted to leave PSG, but now he was thinking about the World Cup. i have ever read his latest interview that explains why mbappe was snubbing real madrid's offers before. Mbappe was willing to compete at the World Cup, therefore he decided to stay till the end of his contract in order to make his movement much easier than before. He is free to ponder about the euro 2024 now. Now, Mbappe plays at Real Madrid which is the best club in the world.

Such skill has to be with the correct team, like Real Madrid. Not that PSG is a horrible team; rather, Enrique's team didn't get to properly utilize him. As Ancellotti will be teaching Mbappe, I'm looking for further progress from him.

The outcome of Mbappe's dispute with PSG is still unclear.

PSG've got all the money in the world, but they just can't seem to get it done

Some people might blame bad luck, and yeah, that plays a part. But the real problem is that PSG haven't learned a damn thing. They keep making the same mistakes. Look at Manchester City: they're swimming in cash too, but they figured out how to build a winning team. They've got a system, a philosophy, and they stick to it

PSG, on the other hand, is a mess. They're constantly chopping and changing managers, tactics, and players.. Enrique might be a good coach, but he's not a miracle worker. And now. they're missing a killer striker. Good bye Mbappe

A few seasons ago, PSG had Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Di Maria, Sergio Ramos in the squad and there were also other good players and yet they didn't win the European Champions League and easily let Di Maria and messi, even seeing that those were players who could make a good impact on the team, who with a good coach could win the European champions league, but the PSG management didn't know how to manage the team well, they couldn't let all those good players leave and they shouldn't having hired coaches without a great track record of achievements in the European champions league

If a team wants to win the European Champions League, then that team must hire a coach who has a lot of experience and has many titles in the European Champions League. Currently, PSG does not have a squad to win the European Champions League and I highly doubt that the current coach will be able to put together a squad capable of winning the European Champions League and with Mbapp's departure, everything has become more difficult for PSG, even for them to have Good performance in Ligue 1 next season will be very difficult without Mbappe and I believe that one of the reasons for Mbape's departure is the disaster that has been PSG's management.

There is not the slightest doubt about PSG that they will continue to dominate Ligue 1 as usual, even though they have lost one of their superstars, namely Mbappe. Luis Enrique will of course try to rebuild the squad by recruiting new players, who can increase their chances of winning the dream trophy, namely the Champions League. If PSG is lucky to win the Champions League trophy next season, then Mbappe will have the same fate as Ibrahimovich. However, joining Real Madrid is still the dream of most players at the moment, and Mbappe will reportedly soon be introduced as their new player.

In my opinion, Luis Enrique will one day be able to present the Champions League trophy to PSG, in his first season PSG did not perform badly, sooner or later PSG will be lucky. Mbappe is a big player at PSG, almost the entire season PSG was distracted by speculation about his future, next season Luis Enrique and his team will be more focused. Nasser Al Khelaifi has hinted that PSG is ready to start a new era without Mbappe, but I'm very curious who they will recruit as Mbappe replacement.

PSG will remain strong in Ligue1 and it is possible that PSG next season will be even more different and get what they have been dreaming of when there is no longer Mbappe in their squad . I am also sure that Enrique will find players who are quite suitable for the PSG team to fill the void left by Mbappe and the possibility of changes in PSG's performance could also be quite clear because if the arrival of new players to PSG could be quite suitable for Enrique's coaching. Of course this is a gift for PSG in terms of becoming stronger because PSG will still try to get the UCL trophy next season.

Kylian Mbappe have been an integral part of Paris Saint Germaine's success in the French league as well as in all the competitions they've played in over the years so it's absolutely understandable that many people believes the club will suffer now that he's left the club. Paris Saint Germaine as we all know is one club that's always active in the transfer market and you don't expect them not to sign a world class attacker that'll definitely serve as Kylian Mbappe's replacement.
There's been several speculations about Paris Saint Germaine's possible options to replace Kylian Mbappe at the club and I'm pretty sure that they'll definitely get one of those big names. But wether the French champions signs s new player or not, the truth is that Paris Saint Germaine will definitely continue to dominate French football with their current squad

Losing Mbappe shouldn’t be a thing to worry about because they will still easily dominate the Ligue 1 with the available players but the Champions League is something they can’t compete for at the moment. It looks as if they are cursed from winning the champions league because despite having Messi, Neymar and Mbappe they were still unable to win it. The only solution i see for them in winning the Champions league is for them to sign a coach that will reshape the team in a way that they would stand out and be able to compete properly, like signing Guardiola will not be a bad idea, that’s the only way i see them winning the champions league.

They need to sign a world class striker and a winger (LW) in my opinion to be able to balance everything well if Mbappe leaves.

It was absolutely a huge improvement by Lyon side, I agree!    A journey starting from the relegation zone and ending up with the 6th position. They are joining the Europa League next season which is a great work.

But nothing is done yet. The same consistency should be seen next season as well. Lyon are normally one of the powerful teams in the Ligue 1 you know. They don't deserve to be a struggling team. Hopefully in the lead of their current manager they can do this job to play bigger next time. A Champions League spot should be their next target and as long as they play like this their chance will be really high for that. 

As we have heard a lot of speculation last year that Mbappé will no longer be at PSG. Of course, Enrique must have thought at the time that since Mbappé won't be signing any more for next season, the coach should be looking for a better player. Since Mbappé is leaving PSG, he will not be seen again, but he will play for Real Madrid from next season. And this time Mbappé's departure has been tough for PSG as they need a player to fill his void which PSG cannot find. If PSG can't fill Mbappé's place, then of course they will not be able to advance in the coming seasons, but they will be far behind in the league in France compared to other teams. So I think PSG should now have another experienced and good player in their squad, but now is the time to spend money if they spend money they can bring in good players.

Mbappe has since set eyes on many things to achieve in his career and one of them I believe is also winning the baloon Dior which I know for a certain that id he stays at PSG he will never get a chance to actually lift that award. As for PSG building a team around mbappe, that has been something that has been limiting the club itself because any week he fails to turn  up the whole team gets demoralized and this mentality has made mbappe even shine more than his peers at PSG but at Real Madrid the whole set up I feel would be a lot different.

Yes, he wanted to leave for long but the management keep bringing in more players to keep him in the team, yet his aim of becoming a Champions League winner is yet to be achieved despite playing with Messi, Neymar, and a lot of big players that have the Champions League experience; again, Mbappe is a big player that have a great future in the world of football, he is a potential Ballon Dor winner which I am sure he will soon achieve since he has joined the best club in the world of football.

PSG can now sign more players and stop relying on one player to lead the team.

He has been desperately longing to actually leave paris st German for like two seasons now but the thing is the club has been putting him on hold knowing full his value they have refused to let him go and that's why he is leaving the club this time around without renewing because at Real Madrid he stands a bigger chance of actually winning all those trophies he has desired and one of them is the champions league and with the squad Madrid is currently possessing they will definitely do more with the likes of mbappe at their front like attack.

It's all luck in every match played by all clubs depending on whose side the luck is on, however, PSG doesn't reflect on its participation in the Champions League and has not been able to enter the Champions League Final even though it was filled with top players but still Not being able to get into the final, it's a shame to have enough money but PSG hasn't had the experience of playing in a final for a season.

In my opinion, even a club like Man City is capable of experiencing this championship, even though it has comparable financial strength. In my opinion, the reality is that PSG often has difficulty making any kind of change but is still unable to change the reality that PSG itself suffers from.

anyone will never feel worried about PSG performance in the next season if they remember back as you said if PSG has Enrique who has better experience and has a good plan and on the one hand I remember in last season's transfer PSG already said that they were trying to brought in Goncalo Ramos as a replacement for Mbappe but currently Goncalo Ramos status is only on loan from Benfica.
after that, Enrique saw how Gancalo Ramos potential was worthy of being retained to replace Mbappe and finally in the transfer last winter, Goncalo Ramos was officially made permanent and has a contract until 2028, which means he has a long term contract for 4 years and gives a sign that PSG and Enrique really believe that Goncalo Ramos will be a great player with skills equal to Mbappe.

sometimes a PSG fan is too focused on Mbappe departure without seeing what PSG has done to fill the vacancy and also ignores Goncalo Ramos who has actually become Mbappe replacement.
but people are still focused on Mbappe who will leave and thinking about Osimhen who will come to replace Mbappe and that will just be impossible.

now is the time for us to return to focusing on PSG future with new player Goncalo Ramos who will become the next Mbappe.

Yes Enrique is a coach with a whole lot of positivity to winning and he's definitely going to to be able to cope after a while, the vital role mbappe played in the success of the team is such that I think is enough to get him missing mbappe but then he can continue to dwell in that knowing the kind of capacity he possess as a coach who has been of excellent results for the team in awhile now.

In as much as we know that the success of the team usually doesn't solely lay on the shoulder of a single player as it's a collective efforts, there's a level with which a player becomes key and important to a team and they will have the team become dependent on them in some important games to score goals and get victory due to the creative abilities of these players and their talent in been able to perfectly deploy their duties in their position brilliantly enough and mbappe is such a player to PSG all the years he has been in the team and that's why his exit is felt this much.

With appropriate strategic plans, I'm optimistic about PSG been able to get back strong on their feet even in the absence of mbappe, getting a replacement and properly applying the best tactical approach that will get them results is all they may need to be able to still maintain their form in the Ligue 1 but in the champions league they may literally have to struggle a while before they can get back in track.

The club management will need to invest again into the squad to keep their ambition remains high. Replacing Mbappe's quality will need to sign a significant mark on new signings to stay competitive in Champions League. The club and Enrique need to work on  a cohesive plan to build a strong team that can make PSG as a formidable force in Champions League.

Beside the spending prowess, PSG need to work on players developments, they already have good talents in the squad. The club need to backup and trust in Enrique to build the squad, the plan and the investment need to be aligned each other. The ambition of Champions League trophy should remain the main target to keep PSG attractive for top talents to sign for them.  

Losing Mbappe hurts. excellent player, excellent talent. Don't get carried away. Not just one person runs PSG. They're still champions, Enrique is a winning coach, and they have superstars. It's not the end of the world. One setback, although a minor one. Enrique's knowledgeable. He'll find the appropriate players to fill the gap and get this squad back on track. Remember, football is team. It's eleven players working together. PSG has the heart, talent, and resources to conquer any challenge. They'll return stronger. Believe me.

It cannot be denied that PSG's desire to win the Champions League is very high, especially since PSG's management itself is very obsessed with the Champion, they are willing to spend any amount of money to buy great players so that the championship title can become a reality, but all of that has failed and now they will lost another star, namely Mbappe, who will leave PSG, and now PSG management must think about who is suitable to bring to PSG to strengthen one of the lines that Mbappe will leave.

There are many players who have been linked with PSG, and I see Rafael Leo as very suitable to fill the void, with his expertise in controlling the ball and of course his good skills, in my opinion this player is very suitable to develop his performance at PSG, of course this is a very good choice good for PSG.
