Yes, PSG last season still had some problems and one of them was about Messi and also about their previous coach, but this season they have gotten better. With a performance like this where they have a coach who can get their players back to their best, and even the current coach can reshape the chemistry of previously broken players, then of course their chances of advancing further in the Champions League are very possible. I'm personally optimistic that PSG this season will reach the Champions League final, because this season is a season where PSG have a better form and their chances are very good this season.

PSG ended last season as they started this season - mostly big wins against all the teams in Ligue 1. Of course this happened after they were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid but the fact remains - if we talk about the interaction of players, then by the end of the past season it was at a high level. If the results of the current season are assessed as a continuation of the past, then we can assume that PSG will be more successful in the Champions League this season. But there are no guarantees, because let's say in the 1/8 or 1/4 finals they can meet with Manchester City or Bayern, and then their next relegation will be quite likely.

Paris Saint Germain is still not ready for a fiercer competition, I see they are still under the giants of the favorite league. Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid still have a level above them. I think this is the result of their league putting less pressure on them. As we can see, they are very superior in this Ligue 1. Actually this is a loss for them, because it does not improve the quality of a team that is very ready for a tougher opponent.

Actually for PSG in the group phase I have no doubts even though Benfica is also playing well but for the top position now in the group phase it will definitely belong to PSG. But they always fail in the later phases of the Champions League.
For Ligue 1 they will continue to dominate and I won't doubt this either because it's a sure thing.

Although Benfica has the same points as PSG, and also Benfica surprisingly managed to beat Juventus. But still PSG are still too strong
to beat by Benfica, I am very optimistic that PSG will beat Benfica easily. So my prediction is that PSG will have no trouble pass to
next round in Champions League. PSG will be the winners in Group H and qualify for the next round. Likewise with PSG's appearance
in Ligue 1, of the 8 matches that have been played by PSG, 7 matches have been won by PSG. It's a proof that PSG in Ligue 1 are too strong
and will likely continue to dominate until the end of this season. That's why winning the Ligue 1 trophy is not PSG's main target, because PSG
have often won the Ligue 1 trophy and PSG's chances are big enough to win the Ligue 1 trophy again. PSG this season will focus on winning
the Champions League trophy, because PSG often fail to win the Champions League trophy.

Even so, PSG are far superior.
Benfica is still a dark horse in the Champions League because sometimes their achievements are unexpected but only that much because I am quite confident with PSG now considering they don't want any obstacles to become rulers in the group stage even though they are knocked out it's still uncertain for them but I sure they will stay in 1st position in this group stage.

Actually last season was not much different from previous seasons, they are still too strong in Ligue 1 and continue to try to realize their dream on the Champions League stage. PSG are mighty in the domestic league, but not in other competitions. there were several weaknesses of PSG last season, one of which was that PSG's defense was not very good, midfielders who did not contribute too much in crucial matches, especially the Champions League. even messi took quite a long time to find his best game at PSG.
IMO, right now, psg is better than in previous seasons architected by galtier. I can say that PSG have a bigger chance compared to last season, for the Champions League.

galtier is a good architect for PSG this season, he motivates PSG's front line to be more solid and more cooperative, mentioning whether PSG has a chance to win the UCL this season, I myself see there are many other teams that are better than them, for example, Barca and Madrid (who has a solid defense and midfield), PSG's struggle will not be easy, it's been a tough season too.

messi's first year at PSG was a nightmare for messi and his fans as well, at that time his decline in performance was the talk of everyone but over time, he has rediscovered his identity and played better and even better for this season, PSG is lucky to have him.

some time ago I saw statistics that mbappe never gave an assists to neymar and messi, it was because he was obsessed with being the top scorer. Football is a game for 11 people, not a game for mbappe only.

It's not new, in the eyes of some fans he is known as an ambitious player to score goals alone, especially since his name became known after join with Paris Saint-Germain. That's also what makes some fans dislike him because he's greedy
But it's natural for me, because Kylian Mbappe is a relatively young player, for his future career glory, Mbappe needs achievements and top scorer is his goal at the moment.
So I wouldn't be surprised if he has a record no assists for another PSG striker

There are even some disputes that occur because of this with other players especially with Neymar it often happens because it can be said that their characters are actually almost similar Grin

But indeed for fairness this can indeed be considered natural, he is one of the young players and indeed his performance is very good so when he is given more proportions at the club it will certainly be like that so it is difficult to change his attitude now.

PSG's failure in round of 16 of the Champions League last season was the worst achievement in PSG's last three seasons in the Champions League. despite having won in Leg 1 of round of 16, but in the end PSG had to be eliminated in leg 2 after get resistance from Madrid and end with 3-2 on aggregate.
This will be the first season for PSG's new coach in the Champions League, Christophe Galtier has the main task of bring PSG not to repeat the same mistakes as last season. Based on PSG's activity in the transfer market this season, they appear to be focus on improving their defense and midfield with the deals of several new players like Vítor Ferreira for example.

Last season they were unfortunate to face Real Madrid early while they are destroying every team they stand in front of them. Previously, it was Mbappe the one that was shining while the others aren't playing top.
This season is quite different. Messi is doing good, Neymar and Mbappe too. In addition to the reinforcement that was done, I assume they will be a hard challenger for City, Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Yes, you are right. but last season SPG was not as strong as it is today, as well as the strategies used by the coach then and now are different. currently SPG has strengthened its squad with several new arrivals, it seems, galtier is able to bring his squad much better than last season.
last season messi was not in his best form, this season galtier is able to bring messi to be a key player in every PSG game. messi always contributes to his colleagues, whether neymar or mbappe.
Obviously, currently SPG is a tough contender for other big clubs competing in the champions league.

PSG had plenty of star players last season too. However, their performance was not good. This is because the bonding between the players was not strong. Moreover, PSG's match strategy was weak. Due to this, we don't see consistent performances from PSG despite having many star players in the squad.
PSG's performance has changed since Galtier took charge of the team. Galtier tried to solve minor problems within the team while also trying to strengthen the bonding between the players. And he has been quite successful. PSG is a very stable team now.

in my opinion about last season they didn't have great difficulties in winning the french league, they just had a problem in the defense where they conceded a lot of goals, something that started to be solved with the passage of time and about last season's champions league, they even got far and were unlucky, but they could have made it to the finals, it wasn't a bad season for them at all, I'm just talking about last season. about this new coach, well so far he managed to make the PSG defense very good compared to last season, he also managed to make neymar play regularly and score goals, honestly that is a great achievement , the guy didn't even look like he played for PSG due to so much injury he had and wouldn't allow him to play for a long period of time

PSG's defence was poor last season. Yet their performance was not too bad. They were Unfortunately defeated in the Champions League. I would say, PSG's only weakness this season is Mbappe. Galtier has been able to strengthen PSG's defence and midfield very well. Also, goalkeeper Donnarumma is quite talented. PSG's defence and midfield do not show any weaknesses. If Mbappe behaved a bit more friendly with Messi and Neymar in attack, their attack would have been stronger. Mbappe should mature. PSG will perform well in this and Mabppe will be able to score a lot of goals and assists.

What the crowd sees is Football is a game for 11 people, but Mbappe doesn't see that as important other than his desire to score more goals. Though it would obviously be very difficult to happen when he couldn't cooperate with the other ten players in a game or match. Because without a player who provides the best assists in a game, it will be difficult to score goals at any time, because every player needs to work together to make the team better.

this seems to be his worst flaw, a few days ago I watched the France game and from what I could see the guy also doesn't like to pass the ball to his teammates when teammates are better positioned to score goals, he is selfish

It was because they were afraid that mbaape would go to Madrid at that time. Nowadays money is the best way to hold a player. But they (PSG) didn't think about the effect of their decision. Other than that I think there's a special clause in the tenure of that contract. So that when Mbaape one day travels PSG will get a lot of Money

looking at mbapee's performance so far, I don't see that he really deserves to be paid that high, even when defending France in the UEFA national league, mbappe did not contribute much and France lost 2-0 to Denmark.

Messi and Neymar are in the form now. Mbappe is also in pretty good form. But Mbappe's selfishness is why PSG is still not performing as well as expected. Mbappe should change his style of play and not behave selfishly. If Mbappe doesn't change his style of play, we won't see the best performance from PSG. PSG's performance will be stronger if Mbappe can fit in well with Messi and Neymar.

Mbappe selfishness is not without reason, he does not want players who are better than him to be on the same team with him. Neymar and Messi have worked well together, they alternately Assist Mbappe but he has never Assist either of them once. To achieve a goal, the team must work well together. Mbappe must change his attitude to help each other bring PSG to what they have long dreamed of, as it is known that PSG really want to win the UCL trophy. But if Mbappe cannot accept the presence of Messi and Neymar as partners in the team he is defending, it is very difficult for PSG to achieve UCL degree.

PSG will be facing Nice in their next match of Ligue 1 and the odds are very low for them to win 1.16, I don't know if betting on this match can get me anywhere maybe a big score ? Psg hasn't scored more than three goals in a long time, maybe this would be it after players get back from their boring friendlies and nation league matches (you could call them official friendlies too) Nice aren't doing well so PSG could destroy them.

The match will take place at home to PSG which will certainly encourage PSG to win against Nice. But I don't think PSG will win by many points, because on March 6 PSG had narrowly lost at home to Nice and had drawn in the Coupe de France match on February 1 this year. So PSG will try to win at home against Nice on October 2 in order to stay at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

That was last year, and this is this year, plus just because last game was hard, doesn't mean it will be hard this year neither. PSG is by far the superior team and they will end up with another easy win if you ask me.

I would have said the same thing if the game was on Nice home stadium as well, this isn't about home or away games, this is about the fact that Messi-Neymar-Mbappe trio is healthy and they have been playing very well together this year, that's the decision maker and since they have been playing better together, they have managed to beat almost anyone, and that is why they are far superior. They are better in other parts of the squad too, but those tree are just another level.

I don't expect Mbappe to change his attitude as long as he has an insane contract with PSG. They just offered the best ever conditions to him and I've never seen any other player who earns this much money so far. I don't know if this was the right thing to do for PSG also. Mbappe has a really big ego in the team now indeed. Everyone should have some level of ego of course because it is helping people to stay stronger against bad things.

However this is more than enough for Mbappe. It can affect his relationship with the other members of the great trio badly in time and this would be the worst thing PSG would like to see in the team. While they are fighting for winning the Champions League title they need this trio to play fully focused during the season.

Messi plays as a playmaker further away from the goal. The main corner of the trio. Neymar brings the ball, serves and scores. Mbappe is the farthest corner of the triangle and his job is to score goals. He is constantly displaced and opens space for others. He is an easy player to throw the ball in front of him because he is fast like a horse. There is no obligation to assist. This kid is a striker, his job is to score goals. When you look at psg's tactics, you already understand the duties of all three players. He has 7 goals in 7 games in the league and 3 goals in 2 games in the champions league. But in total, he did not have even 1 assist in these 9 games. When you watch the matches beyond the statistics, it is very clear that he has already programmed himself not to pass. I also think that he will not probably change his attitude.

It seems that the ligue one will return this week end it seems that nice team will be psg next target, they have been playing poorly this season and their attack is one of the weakest in the frensh league i highly doubt they can score against psg in an away game i think a draw will be the best they can do.

The most interesting games this weekend are PSG-Nice, Lorient-Lille and Lens-Lyon.
PSG to win is expected, even bookies put 15 odds for Nice Roll Eyes

Lorient and Lille are very close with slight advantage for Lille but I think Lorient is good enough to surprise them.
Lens-Lyon is the closest game tho, everything could happen there. It will be interesting to see Lens continuing with 0 defeat.

it's a tricky one were the odds are favoring PSG to win by a lot, but looking at their H2H matches, Nice have been a very strong opponent for PSG, they couldn't beat them in the last three matches, I would definitely avoid betting on this match because PSG can win with a big score and it won't be surprising and also if they won by just one or two same thing, we saw that Nice play really good against them.

This time PSG don't have the luxury of caring less about the Ligue 1 because they have a serious opponent like Marseille for now. As long as Marseille keep up the good form PSG will need to focus on the league at the same time to keep their lead. They need to win until facing Marseille after two weeks in the league. Because Marseille have really easy matches until then and I don't expect them to lose any points in those ones. PSG are lucky that they have three days between their Ligue 1 and Champions League matches. But it is only two days for Marseille.

On the other hand Marseille don't seem like they are caring more about the Champions League now. We can understand this by their losing home against Frankfurt the last time. They wouldn't make any rotation in their lineup in league matches as a result. I think this gap of two points between Marseille and PSG will be kept until their head-to-head.
