Entering the 3rd week of Ligue 1 this season, Paris Saint Germain will face LOSC. In my opinion, this will be an interesting match that will take place in the 3rd week. They are a club that can achieve maximum results in the previous 2 matches, so their meeting will determine who among them will continue to win and who will have to accept their first defeat, or they will share points in this match. I expect a lot from LOSC in this match, because if they can hold a draw or even give Paris Saint Germain a defeat, it will arouse the passion of competition in Ligue 1. Because you can imagine how difficult it is to break the dominance of Paris Siant Germain in the last few seasons, so if they can be defeated in this match, it will open the tap of enthusiasm for other clubs.

Actually, Man United also did not want to let go of their academy star who has good technical potential and has extraordinary passion when playing with his two good feet, but what made him have to leave was the demands of some fans who required him to leave because of the problem because it was very difficult to accept cases of violence that would be the subject of ridicule for other fans in the match to kill his mentality and Man United fans were forced to require him to leave Man United, they themselves really appreciate Greenwood for giving his best when he was there playing not outside the match.

But in my opinion, as Man United fans and Man United management, they will not regret the actions they have chosen because basically this club highly upholds the values ​​of violence against women and this is violence that cannot be normalized so it is only right that he leaves the big Man United team which already has a big name, and his current development has returned, which is a good thing for him, but several clubs that are interested in him will also question his problems in signing him, as well as when he first entered Marseille he was not accepted in the city there, but in the end he was slowly able to win hearts there, which is a good thing, but now he has to be more mature in doing things outside the field so as not to be kicked out of the club again.

When he was involved in an act of violence some people predict Mason Greenwood career has been ended but he can reverse people's predictions and can able to bounce back from the lowest point in his career and everything was started when he playing for Getafe because Mason Greenwood can reach to his top performance again with this team and successfully to bringing Getafe to avoiding relegation zone so after loaned ended some of clubs has showing their interest to him

Mason Greenwood so far became an the most expensive transfer for Marseille this summer with 26 million but i think this price is worth considering he can adapt quickly with Marseille and performing well in the last 2 matches of Ligue 1 besides Mason Greenwood i have been notice Marseille has Elye Wahi and i think this is successfull transfer too similar to Mason Greenwood so these players potentially can being an the key players of Marseille for this season

Greenwood is only 22 years old. He has had such a good start that I am sure Manchester United regretted letting him go. He was good in Spain last year, he looks good in France this year. He may return to England soon. Mason Greenwood was also playing well in Manchester United but his career came to an end due to the problems he had. He continues to stand out with his individual talents.

Mason Greenwood's career nearly hit the rock because of the case of attempted rape, assault and coercive and controlling behaviour. He got a lifeline when key witnesses decided not to cooperate with investigators and the case was dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). Against all odds like protests from Marseille fans Roberto De Zerbi believed in the English striker. The Italians vowed to defend Greenwood as a son and looks like the Italian coach made the right decision. Three goals from two games is a historic performance by a Marseille player and if he continues this way, he will celebrated in Ligue One.   

PSG has the biggest investor compared to other teams in league 1. That is the reason PSG can always be the leader in league 1 without any other team that can be the strongest competitor for PSG. And even stranger is that big investors have no interest in other teams in league 1 to try to invest their money and become a big team. But I understand why investors are afraid to invest their money in other teams in this league because they are afraid of failing and not being able to get the appropriate results. PSG may continue to be a giant team that dominates league 1 without Mbappe, but it will be uninteresting if PSG cannot win the UCL title.

PSG have played two matches so far in the local league where they have scored 10 goals in the two matches against which they have only conceded one goal. Maybe the first two matches PSG fought against very easy opponents but it was beyond expectation that so many goals would be scored in two matches or that they would win by such a big margin. PSG's next match is against a relatively weak opponent and we certainly expect good things from PSG there as well.

Despite the results in PSG's favor in past matches against LOSC, this season the team has played two matches where they are second to PSG with 6 points, but I will still put PSG ahead for this match.

Mason Greenwood is actually a good player, it's just that he was involved in a scandal that made his career not run smoothly and he took a lot of rest before he started being loaned to other clubs, previously he was loaned to La Liga club Getafe for one season and he created 6 goals and 6 assists in all matches, unfortunately this club could not make it permanent because maybe they couldn't afford to buy Mason Greenwood from Man United but Marseille was willing to buy him and give him a place as a main player, currently he has scored 3 goals from the 2 matches he has played, I think he can compete in the top scorer race if he continues to score goals in every match.

It's very strange what happens in Ligue 1, because in most of the big leagues there are always at least 2 best teams that compete with each other. For example, in La Liga there's Barcelona and Real Madrid; Serie A has Inter, Milan, Juventus, Napoli; the Bundesliga now has Leverkusen and Bayern, who were always number 1; in Portugal there's Sporting, Porto, Benfica; in Holland the Eredivisie has PSV, Feyenoord and Ajax; in Turkey there's Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. But strangely enough, in Ligue 1 there's only PSG, the other teams don't even have a 20% chance of competing with PSG. And it's not a league where PSG, even when they don't make a big effort, will be able to be champions. I don't expect any team to appear in Ligue 1 that will start to be an opponent for PSG.

True that PSG is cable of winning their league trophy without their super star player Mbappe, but I think this is so in the case because, the French Ligue 1 isn't as competitive as it's supposed to be, because if this happens in other league like the English Premier League and the Spainsh la Laliga, it usually has an effect on the club's performance and will be advantageous for the other rivalry teams to lifting the trophy.

PSG is dominating the French League and that's clear to us but the fact about PSG during this season is that they playing without Mbappe and this shows PSG is still another team without their superstar player and nothing makes them stop.
Maybe PSG had to stop trying to keep Mbappe in the team because they are still strong without this player and paying too much money for him was good for them. So in the French League, PSG was definitely the favorite.

surely most bettors are disappointed and do not believe the results shown by Marseille in last night's match, considering they played at home they could not maximize the opportunity and were held to a draw by Reims, the first half Marseille played well but in the second half seemed to lose focus we see 2 goals created by Reims only 4 minutes apart Reims' fast counterattack could not be blocked by Marseille.
there are many things that need to be evaluated and fixed by de Zerbi otherwise Marseille will be overwhelmed against a club that is better than Reims, this is still the second week there is still enough time for De Zerbi to improve the performance of his players. let's see in the third week against Toulouse, if it's still like this I will avoid betting on Marseille.

Unfortunately in the second week Marseille only drew against Reims, even though I had hoped they could repeat the same victory as last week.

But it must be admitted that Reims is not an easy opponent so Marseille also had a hard time winning. Conceding two goals in 5 minutes was a fatal mistake for Marseille and they have work to do to immediately fix their fragile defense.

If it weren't for Mason Greenwood with the goal he scored in the 71st minute, the result would have been clear if Marseille would have lost in front of their fans. The reason is that Reims' defense has long been known to be so difficult to break down and Mason Greenwood is very smart at finding gaps. I am still very impressed with this English talent and I feel that Marseille should not waste him and must continue to support him as a main part of the team.

Greenwood is actually a talented player and has a good performance in every game so far, even when he was still at Manchester United he actually made a consistent contribution and performance after being promoted to the Red Devils main squad, but after all the punishment problems experienced actually made his career no longer good in England, and De Zerbi who ever coached Brighton actually knows the ability that Greenwood has so he made him the main target this season to recruit, Manchester United actually wanted to keep Greenwood in their squad but their get rejection from the fans so made Manchester United must sell him to Marseille, at the moment Greenwood is showing a good start with Marseille and I think with the lack of competitiveness of Ligue 1 it is certainly possible for him to develop easily and well in the future,  Especially now that he is under the coaching of De Zerbi who is indeed good at developing and improving the talent and performance of his young players so far.

Mason Greenwood was always a great player, no wonder he is doing great at Marseille as well, the decision to sell him wasn't about his talent, when he was playing he was amazing and there is nothing wrong with that. The decision to sell him came from the legal matters and I support that decision as well. It happened when he was at United and United just sold him, which rids them of any wrongdoing because as soon as they learned they decided to sell him.

Marseille is not caring because when they bought him he was cleared of any charges ,so at the time of the decisions everyone did the right thing for them. Greenwood being this could also could open up chances for him to go back to bigger clubs, will always have some trouble for his legal matters, it will always be discussed, but if he is good enough then he worths enough to go to a better club eventually. Nobody is boycotting Marseille just because of this, proof that not enough people care about the deal.

I think this season we will see different conditions occur in Ligue 1 after Mbappe left the PSG squad, but in fact PSG are still able to show their performance and also their dominance so far over other teams in Ligue 1, when now PSG is in at the top of the standings, I think it will be difficult for other teams to be able to shift their position from the top of the standings because so far the other teams in Ligue 1 are not competent to be able to destroy PSG dominance, apart from that, the unstable performance from of PSG rival teams is actually allowing PSG to continue to be at the top of the standings very safely, as we can see now currently Marseille, Lyon and also Lens are not able to optimize their the match  should be able to win, next week  match we will see PSG face Lille who is second position in standing , So when PSG wins over Lille later, won't PSG easily leave the other teams like last season?

The two matches that PSG have played in Ligue 1 are basically easy matches, because their opponents are mediocre teams. Although indeed, winning with a big score like that is certainly impressive but this is just the beginning and there is no guarantee for PSG to be able to get good results in the Champions League too. Because after all, playing in the Champions League will have different results from the results obtained in the domestic league. So yes, I hope PSG does not get carried away with the good start.

Because after all, basically PSG is still the strongest team in Ligue 1 so yes, it is not surprising that PSG is still fine in Ligue 1 because even without Mbappe, in fact PSG is still the strongest candidate team to win the trophy in Ligue 1. Well, I think a case like this also happened to Tottenham when they have good start the season after Kane left to Bayern Munich at that time, but in the end they still failed. With examples like that, I think we also can't be too satisfied, because PSG also haven't gotten or haven't met to play against a more difficult team.

Ligue 1 repeat itself with the same teams dominating the top places with PSG in front as usual with a lot of goals scored. Marseille is still following but rapidly fall with their mistakes. Lyon in the other hand didn't learn anything from the bad start they had in the previous season and they were knocked by 5 goals in two games against Rennes and Monaco. Rennes isn't even a stable team!

Greenwood performed quite well in Ligue 1, although he was not positioned as a center forward. However, he has shown his ability by scoring three goals in two matches with Marseille, he did not waste the opportunity given to him by De Zerbi. However, we cannot be sure whether Greenwood is able to perform consistently, we hope he is able to give his best for his team at this time. Actually, this player is quite interesting, he performed well with Getafe last season. However, for some reason Ten Hag was reluctant to try him with United, even though his talent has the potential to develop further. Well, in Ligue 1 Greenwood can hone his talent further under De Zerbi's guidance. At least, if he can perform well, his position in Marseille will not be replaced by other players. By the way, in last night's match Elye Wahi was very underperformed and unfortunately Marseille does not have a more established center forward.

Two games and two losses are what Lyon got so far in this season and it was not good for this team to get these results yet. Lyon lost the game to Monaco with a 2-0 result however Manaco is a strong team but these two games can't put Lyon in a bad situation and this can even the coach under pressure for the next game. Lyon was even close to getting relegated in the last season and they got their coach fired because of these bad results. It seems now just like the last season they still had a bad start during this season.
