Lorient and Lens are going on really solid in this season. There is only one point between them by being the 3rd and 4th respectively. Lens haven't even lost any match so far. Actually they were doing well in the previous season also but couldn't make it to any European tournament later on. I wonder how long they will be able to stay at upper positions this time.

Lorient are actually the most surprising team. They have improved themselves mentally incredibly much. Because they barely stayed in the Ligue 1 last season as they finished the season only a few points above the relegation area. If they even finish in top 10 this time it'd still be a big achievement for them.

I'm also very impressed with the performances of Lorient and Lens this season, both teams have improved very significantly this season. Especially
Lorient's performance has been very surprising this season, they are playing like a different team this season. I think this drastic change in performance
from Lorient because they just changed their coach, Regis Le Bris as the new Lorient coach managed to make Lorient a very strong team. Lorient managed
to win 5 matches in a row in Ligue 1, even Lorient managed to beat Lyon and Lille which are strong teams. Now Lorient is in 3rd position, very different
from the previous season where Lorient were almost relegated. I want to see if Lorient can perform consistently this season until the end of the season,
it's true that even if Lorient's performance drops and finally Lorient to be in the top 10 it's already a great achievement. But I believe that either Lorient
or Lens this season can be in the top 5, if we look at the performance of the two teams, they are quite consistent until the 9th round.

Barcelona have huge financial problems (if I'm not mistaken they still have a debt to Messi even now) so there is no chance that Messi will return to Barcelona. In my opinion, Messi can go to MLS and earn a lot of money there in a season or two, and in his position it will be the best solution, as it was already written above, age makes itself felt and it will soon become more and more obvious that he does not correspond to the level of a top club.
I doubt with PSG will not extended contract for Lionel Messi looking with his contribution from scoring goals and assist after two season with PSG, I see have chance for Lionel Messi get one years extended contract with PSG but depending how his contribution and achievement in this season. Honestly if PSG can go ahead until final stage on UEFA Champion League believing he will get more than one years contract extended in PSG. Rumors talk about Lionel Messi back to Barcelona seems close depending still with the same management team when Messi leaving Barcelona, actually he has bad memorize with Barcelona management let him go and not give extended contract after he has agreement cut off his salary.

Messi's fitness is still very good. He will not decide to retire so soon. He will be associated with football for another 3-4 years. And the most important thing is that he will not decide to retire from the PSG club. There is a possibility that he will come back to Barcelona. And from Barcelona, he will announce his retirement. Or he will announce his retirement from a club in Argentina, where his career began. I think we will see Messi in Barcelona jersey again. Even if it is for a very short time.
I doubt if Messi would be able to play competitive football for another 2 years. Players' performance tends to decrease faster when they are getting old. No doubt he is strong and fit but he might retire in the next one or two years.

Barcelona have huge financial problems (if I'm not mistaken they still have a debt to Messi even now) so there is no chance that Messi will return to Barcelona. In my opinion, Messi can go to MLS and earn a lot of money there in a season or two, and in his position it will be the best solution, as it was already written above, age makes itself felt and it will soon become more and more obvious that he does not correspond to the level of a top club.
Your comment is the best advice for both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. They have had an outstanding football careers and they have both past their primetime. Messi shouldn't even consider going back to Barcelona except in a coaching or management capacity because he would never regain his class. He was substituted in the last match because of tiredness; this means age is no longer on his side. His focus now should be on how to make more money and finalize his retirement plans.

IMO, there are a lot of possibilities that will happen. it is possible, Messi will continue his contract with PSG, but until now there is no clarity about the continuation of Messi's contract at PSG. some sports news reported, Messi was reluctant to continue his contract with PSG.

on the other hand, the closeness of Messi and Xavi is very closely intertwined. there are many possibilities that Messi will end his career at Camp Nou, but what is certain is that currently Messi still has a contract with PSG, and he and the team will try to realize the Club's dream of becoming champions league champions.
Messi currently focus to PSG and Argentina national team so he haven't discuss about contract agreement yet because he said everything will be decided after World Cup but in my opinion he should be stayed at PSG because seems Messi already find his rhythm in this team and playing well for almost each matches and if he moved to other teams such as Barcelona i am doubt he will be adapt quickly especially at his current age he have to compete with other players which more younger and that's not easy and also there is no guarantee he can playing well again if Barcelona really want to bought him

Messi has already said he is comfortable in PSG for now, when he first arrived in France, he was finding it difficult to settle down, but now he has started making friends and understanding the team, he is feeling a home. He may not not PSG if the dream of champions league is not achieved by him and his team mates.
Talking about returning to Barcelona, if that will happen, he is not going to Barcelona to play active football but rather to return for ceremony and claim his legendary status in the club.

Messi could have been able to play beside Haaland at Manchester City if the English team made a serious offer for Messi. I don't know if we can see this duo in the same team in the future. Messi is already getting really old and we don't know when he is thinking of retiring. Maybe he would play for long years just as Ronaldo has been planning.
when facing benfica yesterday, messi asked galtier to be replaced with another player because he was already tired, after the change was over he went straight to the locker room
messsi is old and tired quickly, if compared to haaland (in the future) i'm not sure he will fit because as far as i can see messi is a supporter for mbappe at psg at the moment and provides a lot of assists to him
messi is old and i see it looks like he will retire at PSG, regarding whether haaland will move to PSG, i don't think that will ever happen
I don't think there is any joy or excitement expected expected when Haaland and Messi plays together. There is nothing special about it, Haaland and Kelvin De Brune is already a perfect combination. The football world is not hungry to see Haaland and Messi play.
You would have said  if Messi and Ronaldo will play for the same club before they retire. This is where the stage would be lively and fans would thrill. If this is to happen it is only psg that can make it happen but I don't think they are interested in that.  Their major gaol is the champions league.
I don’t understand why do you feel that Messi will retire so soon that too at PSG, because I strongly feel that he’ll come to Barcelona and play for at least 3 more year’s before retiring from the game. Furthermore I don’t expect City to move for him now, because the management wouldn’t want Messi to steal Halland’s thunder and I also believe that Barcelona will never be able to afford Halland so I doubt that these two will ever play for the same team.

Messi's fitness is still very good. He will not decide to retire so soon. He will be associated with football for another 3-4 years. And the most important thing is that he will not decide to retire from the PSG club. There is a possibility that he will come back to Barcelona. And from Barcelona, he will announce his retirement.

Until now, no one has matched the rivalry of the two superstars Ronaldo and Messi. talk about the stars of this era, namely Mbappe and Haaland. which is where all the attention of football lovers is on the two young stars. we will not compare the talents of the two people, because after all they have their respective advantages.

as I said before, Mbappe is the Beast and Haaland is the Monster of goals. meaning, they are great stars and will be even greater in the years to come as they get older.
but what is emphasized here is the bad attitude of Mbappe's behavior, he has an attitude that is quite vulnerable to creating disputes between players in a team. it is clear if there is a vote on attitude, who is better between the two stars. then, I will choose Haaland who has a better attitude.
I agree that Mbappe has a more "open and out" type of sinister personality that has caused a lot of turmoil for his club, but Haaland is no angel when it comes to switching teams or just not being in long term plans neither. So far he joyfully left his teams he played for, and never wanted to even consider staying, that might be an ok thing up until Dortmund, but even in City his father recently said he will leave after 3-4 seasons, so it’s really not a sure thing, his motives could be a lot more hidden compared to Mbappe, but it’s there.

But, watching the two of them play and break records after records is a great thing, Haaland is more entertaining right now because he is in a more serious league, whereas Mbappe just plays with people who are far inferior to him at Ligue 1, which is a shame but for that much money it’s understandable.

Messi is already getting really old and we don't know when he is thinking of retiring. Maybe he would play for long years just as Ronaldo has been planning.
Truthfully I'd like to see Messi - Haaland duo. It feels like these two can have a very good relationship with each other and this would be an even bigger contribution to the attacking power of a team. I don't think that Messi's next stop would be a different team than Barcelona if he leaves. Maybe PSG would bring Haaland in the future in case Neymar leaves. Mbappe can play on the wing also in the end. Then this trio would be much stronger and this time PSG would be unstoppable rather than Manchester City.  Grin
This will never happen, Manchester City has no other plan but to play all round Haaland alone this has been the plan even when they signed the signature. If they both play together who will be under the shadows of who, football days for Messi are over. Even at PSG they are still playing to Kylian Mbappe because of the transfer deal and agreement with PSG.
After the world Cup I will see if Neymar continues at PSG, if a good team approaches him with the right salaries I think he will leave.
But with Mbappe behavior I don't think he can win the Champions League soon or later.
It is true that Man City will never bring in Messi, because from the start Guardiola's strategy has only relied on one striker. Moreover, Man City's
current performance has been good, so I think Guardiola is satisfied with the current squad. After all, Man City is not a team that is interested in
signing older players with high salaries like Messi. I even more believe in Messi rejoining Barcelona than moving to Man City.
After all, without the presence of Messi, Man City's front line performance has been very productive, so it is almost impossible for Messi to move
to Man City. Likewise, the possibility of Haaland moving to PSG seems difficult to happen, because no matter how much money PSG will offer,
looks like Man City will not sell Haaland. Moreover, by seeing Haaland's performance which was extraordinary, it was very small chance for Man City
to let Haaland go. I agree with you that the chances of PSG winning the Champions League trophy are very slim, if the star players they have are
still playing selfishly. Especially Mbappe since getting a new contract from PSG, I see Mbappe's behavior is getting more selfish.

right now there's no reason for manchester city to bring Lionel Messi into the team. If it was before Haaland came into the team, probably there could be some option for Manchester City to bring in Lionel Messi.

but right now Manchester city is almost a complete team. i really don't see any flaw in the game of Manchester City right now. so, unless something really bad happens i think Manchester city is not going to get rid of Haaland soon. right now he is playing really well and he is basically in the form of his life.

so, it doesn't make sense at all for Manchester City to let Haaland go now. maybe in two or three years if Manchester City has a better option than Haaland, they will think about it. but not right now or not even in 1 year.

Messi said, Kylian Mbappe is a great player and difficult to play against in one-on-one situations, but the current mbappe is not yet in the category of the world's best player, and I agree with his statement. Mbappe and Haaland have incredible talent, but I don't think these two stars are the same. but what is certain is that these two players are young stars of this era.
Mbappe is a beast but Haaland is a goal monster. we always enjoy each of their respective performances, but IMO, Haaland is better than Mbappe in terms of attitude, if there is a vote which chooses who is the best of the two. obviously, we like Haaland more than Mbappe.
Totally agree. Mbappe and Haaland shouldn't, in my opinion, be compared in the slightest. The dynamics are simply too dissimilar. Mbappe is an attacking midfielder, Erling is just a striker. I am not really a fan of Mbappe but we gotta be honest here. Erling relies on his team mates to receive the ball but Mbappe is different. We are aware that Mbappe excels in terms of technique and durability as well. There is no need to compare anything.

Mbappe problem is that he is selfish and authoritarian, the status he has at PSG allows him to send and give many tips on the direction of the team, this power that is getting worse will spoil him and I doubt that Real Madrid will want him again one day with that attitude of his, while haaland is a more humble player who is in a team where he respects and knows how to listen to the coach's orders, halaand is not in the city to send everyone, he is just a player and his role is to contribute to the team get well and have good results, but we can't say the same thing about Mbappe and PSG, at PSG Mbappe has power equal to or greater than the coach and that honestly is something quite shameful

Haaland and Messi these players has came from different era and i have to say Messi era is near to ended and for Haaland as he still young and still can develop with Manchester City so it's almost impossible to see the duet between Haaland and Messi moreover PSG has a plan to extended his contract for one more year and this is good for Messi because not much teams offered the contract with high salary to the 35 years old player and indeed there was a statement from Guardiola that he had a dream want to see Haaland and Messi playing together but i am sure it's not more than just an opinion and it will never be happend
We can not compare Haaland and Messi because two reasons

The first reason is like you said, they come from different eras. Messi is from the era with Cristiano Ronaldo. Haaland is from the era with Mbappe and in this generation, they are greatest players.

If you want to make comparison, Haaland should be compared to Mbappe and I believe they will create another unbelievable race like the one between Messi and Ronaldo.

The second reason is Messi has different style than Haaland. They playing style of Haaland is like the one of Ronaldo. So if you want to compare playing style, it should be between Haaland and Ronaldo.

^^ I wouldn't say that the Lionel Messi era has already ended or is almost at the end. I will say that just because of the world cup. This upcoming world cup is going to be very meaningful for Lionel Messi.

And I think Argentina has a really capable team heading into this world cup. So, I would not be surprised if they actually end up winning the world cup. But after this world cup, Lionel Messi probably has one or two years that he is going to be able to play in good form. After that, I think it will come down to Haaland and Mbappe.

I know that a lot of people are expecting Haaland or Mbappe to become the next Lionel Messi. But I don't think either of them will be able to meet that wish. Because both of them are very different styles of players from Lionel Messi.

in the world cup both messi and cristiando ronaldo will be the center of attention, even at their age, the advantage of these two players is the great contribution they make to the main team of their country, in the case of Haaland and Mbappe there is still a long way to go to walk

Lens when compared to last season, they have improved now but this is still early of course and they still have to continue to maintain their performance so that their position is not shifted.
2 seasons in a row they have always been in 7th position and most likely if they are in this form and can maintain it is not impossible that their position is better than before.

I'm a little surprised that the performance of Lens so far is quite satisfactory, even Lens until the 9th round has not been defeated.
But it's too early to conclude that Lens will be in a better position this season, Lens had to play consistently until the end of the season
to get to a better position than the previous season and it wasn't easy. Although so far Lens has beaten Monaco and Lyon, both of which
are strong teams in Ligue 1. But Lens still has to face some other strong teams, at least Lens so far is enough to show they are serious
enough this season to want to achieve a better position than the previous season. At least Lens target must be in the top 5 so that next
season they can play in European competition, and we'll see if Lens is able to do that or not. Next Lens will face Lille, and if Lens can beat
Lille at least get closer to Lens to be in the top 5 this season.
But indeed this is still a little risky for them I think because from the previous season they were also good at the beginning although indeed they are currently better than last season but hopefully this season they are much better at maintaining consistency because this is something quite difficult for a club that has equal quality like them.

But with the current conditions as long as they can still maintain consistency for the top 5, I'm still quite confident with them.

It's fun when you start a conversation by comparing players. Just like Ronaldo and Messi and Haaland with Mbappe, yes their eras are quite different but what I salute when talking about Ronaldo and Messi, because until now they are still being talked about a lot despite their old age. Many say that now their era has ended, but on the other hand, the appearance of the two is still highly anticipated, which means that it proves that their era has not completely ended.

I agree with you. The era of Ronaldo and Messi is not over yet. At least until the next World Cup, these two players will be at the top of the discussion. Haalnad and Mbappe are young players. They are playing very well. But until Messi and Ronaldo retire, I think these two players will be at the top of the discussion. Even though Messi is now quite old, he still continues to perform well for Argentina and PSG.

But in this match I will be in Lens.
Currently, Lyon's condition is still not good, especially with their 3 defeats in a row.
Even though in terms of team strength they can be said to be balanced but in terms of performance it is clear that Lens is better at this time so even though it's still at risk I will still be at Lens in this match.

The lens is yet to lose a match this season. Lyon, on the other hand, has started the season very well, but has lost their last three matches. The Lyon team is not weak. But now they are not in good form. In this situation, it is difficult to get points against a strong team like Lens. However, if Lyon's defenders play well, they have the potential to earn points.
In the end it was betting on Lens that made me profit more than this. They won narrowly and they deserved it Grin
at the moment they are getting better and this is probably a good achievement for Lens. Being in 4th position out of 9 matches played and without ever losing because of these 9 matches they won 6 times and drew 3 times.
next week will be fun to see them again because there is Lille next opponent.
