Marseille lost 2 more points with a goalless draw away to Lorient and we can say that their championship chances have started to diminish for them.They were doing very well but it is very normal for you to lose points in such matches if you lose points in such matches.Lens, on the other hand, won and maintained their point difference with PSG.There is a 6 point difference between them and there are 8 games left.This difference is a difference that can be closed and they have to wait for PSG to lose points and win all their matches.It is not easy for them but it is not impossible.

I really like how you say it, but you're really right, if Mbappé wants to win a UCL he has to change teams now, but it's a pity that at first Mbappé said no to Real Madrid because to be honest, Real Madrid doesn't give second chances, and I don't think they'll make an exception with Mbappé, although it wouldn't hurt the team to have the Frenchman so he can do things even better, I know that now Benzema is the King together with Modric and Kross, it's As you say, they are still the galacticos and they can be even much better, let's wait and see what Florentino decides.


In that part you are completely right, in fact it has aroused interest in watching the Saudi League, even the same TV channels that are sports, ESPN makes its space to broadcast these games, especially when CR7 is there, and if they leave more famous players to play in this league, it will make it very famous, it will attract the attention of many players and they will be able to have a better league every time, because if players from all over the world enter they will bring this technique to Arab football, which will make it much stronger , and be careful with the European Leagues and the Arabs take away their most famous players for paying them much better.


There is something that has always bothered me here in the big teams, and that is that they turn their backs on players like Messi, CR7, when their teams are doing badly they believe that the culprits are the famous players, so they took Messi out for the back door at Barcelona and now PSG treats Messi badly, in the case of the Parque de los Príncipes it is something that they should not do to Messi, something very bad and that is bad custom, they always blame players like these.

Messi's role at PSG is clearly very different from that of Barcelona because in this team he is a supporter for his colleagues like Neymar and Mbappe to score goals and it is different when he is at Barcelona because he is a pillar. But even though at the moment his role is different, these 2 seasons he has always done his best and of course for Messi's age adapting to the role of this new club can be said to be very great.

Marseille draw with Lorient was a bad result for them since that allowed lens team to get ahead of them and take the second spot and putting a two points difference between them but they still has a chance at redemption since lens team next games will be against psg and monaco so marseille will have a big chance taking the second position back.

Or maybe it is about the fact that Messi is getting older as well. I am not really considering Messi to be someone that plays badly, but that doesn't mean that he is not playing as amazing as he used to. He is still playing very well, and he is still playing better than most players in the world. However, going from "greatest football player of all time" down to "he is at least as good as Kevin De Bruyne" type of level, is looking like a drop anyway.

Yes, it is a drop but would you not want him on your team? Any team in the world would want him still, dude is a beast, he is not GOAT level anymore but still better than any player in any team and that's why I think it may not be the reason why they haven't done well.

It's not hard to find a manager like Pep Guardiola lately. Everyone who has worked with Pep for several years learns from him and is doing great in his career. A clear example is Arteta. Another example is Vincent Kompany. Of course, these names are a little light for PSG, but Pep has a reality and he carries it everywhere. I just wanted to emphasize that. :)

PSG will most likely play without Messi next season. They are very likely to send Neymar from the team as well. Mbappe will be the admiral of the team. One admiral is enough for the Champions League or any other cup, the rest must be soldiers.

messi and neymar are ordinary people, so the expectations of PSG fans to the two of them are very unreasonable, what I see as the source of the problem in the PSG camp is the privilege that PSG has given to mbappe. I can't imagine what will happen to PSG's performance when Neymar and Messi are not there.

in the marseille vs lorient match, it was clear that lorient relied a lot on counterattacks, lorient's defense was also very good, it was evident that marseille seemed to have difficulty penetrating it. it's a shame that lorient didn't even score 1 goal even though the "shots on target" that lorient made quite a lot were 5.

It's not just about the coach. Of course, if a coach like Pep Guardiola comes to the team, then better results can be achieved. I think the problem may be that the chemistry of so many stars does not fit together. For the last time this season, I think we will see this trio together. UCL didn't happen, the league is having problems now Lens, Marsilya they all come from behind. but since they could not come cleanly in the teams coming from behind, they can use the gold point difference well and protect the league championship.

After joining PSC, Lionel Messi did not get the same support as the rest of the players supported him when he was in the Barcelona team. As a result, Lionel Messi is failing to give PSG something extraordinary. But I will blame the coach of the team for the bad condition of the team.

Actually, if we have to be honest. especially, in the last 5 matches of PSG. Messi always plays well, even if there are still those who doubt it. we can refer to the statistical rating that Messi has, wherever the source is, almost on average he has a value of 7+, it could even be better than that. on the contrary, in the last 5 matches that Mbappe has played, he has a bad statistical rating. in fact, Messi's task is to serve Mbappe more to provide his best assists to score goals. Messi at Barcelona, ​​has a different role to Messi at PSG. obviously, everything returns to its age. so, actually the burden should not only be borne by Messi alone, this is a team game. if the team loses, it means that something must be corrected and repaired from the team and the coach as the boss on the field as well as in the locker room. the problems that occur at PSG are very complex, starting from the issue of the rift of the players, the actions of Mbappe and Neymar, players who have been injured, and others. but for sure, if Messi and Mbappe don't have good support from other players, they will be very difficult. well, now it is rumored that Messi will return to Barcelona and it seems that it is a better choice. but even better, if Messi accepts an offer from Al Hilal.

With lots of great players, PSG should have been able to advance to the UCL final or semifinals but unfortunately their journey always ran aground, judging from the composition of the players, it was more than enough, but it seems that a new coach is needed to manage players to be better than before, who knows with a new coach PSG can get better either in the league championship or UCL

I also think that Messi will not extend his contract at PSG, because for several seasons they have not been able to get the UCL trophy, but maybe PSG will not be willing to let him go so easily. Going back to La Liga and playing for Barcelona, I don't think that's going to happen, given that there's already Lewandowski and a lot of talented young players, but yes let's hope Messi can return to Barcelona because Xavi needs his partner to get UCL trophy next season.

Lionel Messi has not made a big contribution to PSG so far so I think even though Lionel Messi leaving has not made a significant difference to the PSG team, so far the PSG team has been very solid because they have very good players on all fronts and this PSG team does not rely on any one player only.
and for the front line of the PSG team I think Mbappe is a very influential player compared to Lionel Messi.

Lionel Messi is an old player, I think for progress the PSG team has to let him go and find a younger and better replacement.

Great players like Lionel Messi also need other players who can provide good passes for him so he can give better results for the team in every game. Because he also can't do much in the team if he has to rely on himself in every game, so it would be better if PSG could score better midfielders and wings so that players on the front lines like Lionel Messi can be more assisted in scoring goals. And this will also have a good impact on the PSG team itself when competing in other competitions such as the UCL next season.

But it seems that Messi will not extend his debut contract with PSG and Messi has also not said which team he will continue to play with for the next season because the PSG Management itself has offered Messi to continue for at least one season but Messi refused.
Messi has this decision, for sure he already has an offer given by another team and will accept it later so he will still leave PSG.

Let's hope Messi returns to Barcelona until the end of his retirement season and can show that he is indeed a player worthy of the Goat title.

Mbappe is still in this league with PSG because of money mostly of course. He wants to achieve the Champions League title at least for once as well but I don't know if he can. Because PSG still don't seem trustworthy for that target. Above all else I don't like their choice for a coach. Galtier isn't the right coach for this team. He isn't experienced with big teams therefore it creates some kind of an obstacle for this team to achieve their targets.

I know that they haven't achieve that title anyway with a more experienced coach. But I just think like they still haven't found the right one for themselves. Zidane can really be the best choice but it won't be easy for PSG to convince him to manage them either. Because he doesn't even think of managing a team these days. Instead he is eager to manage France national team if I'm not wrong.

Messi presence in the club have taken the mentality of the players to the next level, he's an icon in football and every player in the club is learning from the Argentine international. He outshined his opponents in games and grabbed Superb performance for the Parisians. Maybe his time is up, the fans keep booeing him whenever he makes a mistake on the pitch. PSG boss, Christophe Galtier is mute and we don't know the next step of the club. Leo Messi is a disputed GoAT in football and PSG should be grateful to have him in the club. Hence, every club owner would want him to feature for various team.

Marseille played a goalless draw when they had an away game against Lorient and this result made Marseille fail to stick to PSG. But not only that, this draw made Marseille only get 1 additional point and failed to shift Lens' position in the standings. Statistically, Marseille is quite dominating with 60% possession, it's just that they lack to be able to create more opportunities. Lorient, which is targeting a win, must also be willing to accept this draw and they must be stuck in 10th place in the standings.

He has already in PSG and why would messi need to go to the PSG again? Messi has been doing so many things in PSG but the problem is the result was not making PSG fans are feeling satisfied with him. I can say that if messi is not having good performance in PSG.
PSG unable to win prestigious trophies even it has been tried a few times. The level of PSG is still far compared with another club like real madrid or bayern munchen. Messi had so many people who hatred him. He shall move away from there as soon as possible.

PSG will be playing without messi in upcoming season. Messi already prepared to go to the barcelona. Barcelona has been even confirming if it wanna try to sign back messi again after messi has gone to the PSG for two years.
Barcelona has been also confirming it. That's why PSG is aiming to get hakim ziyech from chelsea as replacement for messi. It's not clear which player that will be replacing neymar

Well you say? After moving to PSG, did you see Messi's achievements for the club? I don't think I saw it. I think Messi's career at PSG has gone backwards. If Messi had gone to another club, his club career would have been bigger. Messi needs to think about the next contract.
