And with Marseille finally getting a tie, while PSG winning, it is obvious that PSG is the first and intends to stay like that. People overreacted to PSG  a lot, and they shouldn't and it wasn't such a big deal, they assumed that Marseille could win the title like Lille did a year prior, and that is obviously not going to happen at all, look at the game and the result and you will see why.

I believe that the best thing to do now would be waiting for PSG to have even more wins, and they will do fine. It is overreacted, and PSG will show the world how "rich" they are, I mean they are good, but that's mainly thanks to the money they have.

I really liked this camera angle by the way. It made me feel like I was playing FIFA 23.  Grin

It was a wonderful free-kick by Messi and Lopes made a superb save also. We are watching Messi play very close to his times at Barcelona from now on. He is meeting the expectations by scoring goals and making assists regularly. In this match, we actually watched Neymar and Messi playing like the way they used to do at Barcelona. Mbappe couldn't do much in this match as these two players preferred to play together quite often. I hope that this didn't make Mbappe frustrated. Because he is already aware of the strong bond between them and he doesn't want to be their second option to pass the ball to. Mbappe showed an example of his frustration in a match before after not getting the pass while he was making a great run into the back of the defense of their opponent.
He has the world's highest awareness on the field, his every move is planned, every move has a logic. It's as if he stops the whole life by pressing the pause button during the match, and after deciding what to do, he presses play and continues the match. He does this as if it were a very simple, ordinary thing. An ordinary person, even if they are a professional footballer, cannot do this. Even if Messi will only pass the ball when he touches the ball, it gets people excited. I had this feeling years ago only in Ronaldinho when I was little.

Lyon did a very high level job today in terms of defense and goalkeeper. If it was any other team, Messi would have scored three goals in this match. Congratulations to Lyon's defense, they were very good. Mbappe played very disconnected from the team for this match. Neymar, yes he is very talented but he needs to keep his turnovers to a minimum. With this PSG, they will be one of the top contenders for CL, but cannot match City's level, definitely.

PSG dealt surprisingly easily with Olympique Lyon. The 1-0 result does not fully reflect the advantage that the team from Paris had in this match. Certainly, a goal scored quickly by Messi, because already in the 5th minute of the match, was of great importance for the course of the match. I must admit that I expected more from the hosts.
Nothing more can be expected from the hosts (Olympique Lyon). Even though Olympique Lyon looked to be playing really well to keep themselves from conceding more goals in that match, because PSG team is always the stronger team in French Ligue 1. But what I wonder is why only one goal was created by the PSG team while in the PSG team there are so many high-class star players, while in the Olympique Lyon team it is the opposite.

PSG beat Lyon 1-0 away from home. Obviously it was not an easy game for both sides. Of course PSG was the heavy favorite but they struggled to score against Lyon. As such, we can say that we watched an unpleasant match. They won with a goal scored by Messi in 5 minutes.
Lens team is doing very well. They are one of the 3 undefeated teams in 8 weeks. Their next match is against lyon. A decisive and important match for them.
After checking this result my feeling is this is favorable for Lyon because as we have attack in PSG they can ruin them but good defense and tactics from them prevent them for having any the worst result in this match after super start of this season now they are on losing streak with 3 matches in a row is surely never been ideal for any team which is at the top ranks.

Defeat against Lorient bring them down and now Monaco and PSG both also done same with now after break they are going to face another surprise package which is surely going to be nightmare for them as Lens is also on good run and only in three teams which are not faced any defeat in their first seven matches of this season.

So far only Marseille has been able to keep up with PSG but PSG is on another planet and having all those superstars is really easy to win any league,let alone the French one which is not one of the strongest,sure it is in the top 5 major European Leagues but it sits 5th in this ranking.No other team has been as consistent as Marseille in following Paris so far and I hope they continue to play like that despite them losing at home in the Champions League to Frankfurt.

Lorient I don't consider a team which can stay that long in that position but I always am happy when teams like Lorient climb those high positions,this year strange enough the Ligue 1 is beautiful and so far I have seen great goals and by great goals I mean from teams other than PSG.

A neat cooperation between players produced goals through Messi. But unfortunately they could not increase the advantage until the long whistle sounded, although many opportunities were created.
In this match, we were shown again in cooperation, Messi and Neymar again showed it in this match. I hope the chemistry between them continues to run and improve.
If any team want to do many goals then surely they need good and solid cooperation between players but sadly right now it's no happening in PSG, and specially we are looking problems between Neymar and Mbappé which is surely a big issue for the coach and management because this can create feud and this is not good for them in big matches as this can create problems for them as we already watch in past here now coach need to do his role because this is very important for any team success.

Combination between Neymar and Messi is surely having big impact on their success but as we all know Mbappé is more important player for this team, but his attitude is surely going against him and success which is never been positive for anyone and need to be settled otherwise PSG management can do some unwanted decisions which will be helpful for them instead of going into mess up.

PSG played very well by being able to control the game and create many chances but unfortunately they were only able to win 1 goal which was scored by Messi in 5 minutes.
I think there are still many things that PSG need to improve on, especially the flow of the ball from the midfield and forwards and also the use of opportunities to score goals. they currently still waste a lot of good chances that can't be converted into goals.
but the victory was enough for them to get 3 points this week.
even though it would be thought that PSG would get a lot of goals in the match against Lyon but that didn't happen. neymar and mbappe compete to be the top scorer in ligue 1, unfortunately neither of them scored in that match. but the news circulating is that neymar was angry with galtier because he was substituted in the 86th minute, he said galtier missed his chance (neymar) to score.
this is a disadvantage for the PSG team, PSG's front line is often reported to not have a suitable chemistry and that often happens in several matches, especially between neymar and mbappe.
the difficult task is in the hands of the coach because at PSG there are many star players and of course they have very high egos.

The match against Lyon was indeed a little unlucky for PSG because with the many opportunities they had they were only able to score 1 goal. it will be a big evaluation in my opinion for PSG's front line.

I think to know how Lionel Messi contributing for PSG looking on how long PSG journey on Champion League, will he success lead PSG until final stage or stuck last season on 16 round phase.
PSG signed a contract and gave a very generous salary to Messi not to win Ligue 1. They did all these things for Messi with a demand that Messi should contribute for them and lead them to Champions League trophy. In the first season, Messi failed but we can expect better contribution from Messi in this season and PSG would be a stronger team in Champions League. They will not easily be beaten in this season.

Might even be surprising to you to learn that City, Bayern and PSG have been the top 3 favourites in the past 3 editions of Champions League, leaving out Real Madrid every season despite them appearing and winning in finals. Liverpool I always feel are rightly below top 3, despite also making 3/5 finals.
They have best players in the Europe and in general, as whole team, their squads are very strong. I think Manchester City and PSG are stronger than Bayern but we can not under estimate the strength of Bayern. They are more experienced in Champions League and Manchester City, PSG can not compare with them about that.

The win against Lyon was very challenging for PSG. Lyon may have been in a bit of poor form recently. But they are very strong at home. Lyon has won all of their first 4 home matches. Lyon collected 13 points in 7 matches, 12 of which they collected in home matches. And so winning this match was not easy for PSG.
PSG may have scored only one goal in this match. But PSG's match strategy was good enough. The conflict between Neymar and Mbappe was not seen in this match. Galtier seems to be able to stabilize the team.
I see Lyon need to change the form of the game if they are to fight for a place in the European league this season. Lyon is currently ranked 6th in the standings with 13 points, 5 points behind Lens who occupy the Europa League zone.
With this win Paris Saint-Germain return to the top of Ligue 1 with 22 points overtaking Marseille who drew with Rennes, although only two points clear, their goal difference of +22 is double that of Marseille, an ominous sign at this early stage. for Marseille.

Only 8 rounds have been completed. There is still a long journey ahead. The team that is able to maintain the consistency of performance will be at the top of the points table. Lyon, however, is currently sixth in the table. But staying between 3rd-5th position in the points table is not too difficult for them if they can bring consistency in performance.

Marseille drew in the last match, and now they are 2 points behind PSG. Marseille is playing very well this season. But I don't think they will compete for the title with PSG. I think we will see PSG dominate Ligue 1 this season as well.

To my surprise bookies rate PSG as the second top contender to win the Champions League with 5.55 odds (Manchester City are the top contender with 2.85 odds). It seems to me that making predictions (or betting) in a tournament where there are elimination games is a rather pointless exercise, but the odds of the bookmakers show that most specialists rate PSG very highly. Although, on the other hand, Barcelona, which has not yet proved its strength with strong opponents, is estimated not much worse - 11.80.

Might even be surprising to you to learn that City, Bayern and PSG have been the top 3 favourites in the past 3 editions of Champions League, leaving out Real Madrid every season despite them appearing and winning in finals. Liverpool I always feel are rightly below top 3, despite also making 3/5 finals.

Now I understand that's because Bayern and PSG don't have good domestic competition, so bookies probably account for them being fresher in Europe, but City? Squad depth? Mega team?

If we've learnt anything from the past 5 season: don't bet on the top 3 favs.

As expected, Marseille lost points in an unobvious match and if PSG win today, they will become the sole leader. Quotes for the game Lyon - PSG at the moment are as follows:

5.20 - 5.20 - 1.53

It's an away game for PSG and the opposition isn't that bad, so bet on Olympique Lyon or draw with 2.50 odds caught my attention. I also believe that BTTS No with odds of 2,68 is profitable.

Hehe, so my analysis was correct. A bet on these two results would give a 34% profit. The more I pay attention to the BTTS betting market, the more I get the idea that there are far more distorted odds than in other markets. It seems to me that BTTS Yes is almost always overrated, which cannot be logical since this outcome requires the successful action of two teams.

There is a big improvement in the performance of Neymar - Messi duo this season by the way. Neymar dealt with injuries last season and we didn't see him very often. Messi was also in an adaptation process for some time. But now both of them are performing great like they were doing the same at Barcelona together. I'm still nervous about Neymar's being injury-prone of course. Besides, he made really interesting statements before also like he wasn't enjoying football like in the old times. But seemingly he's changed his mind considering his performance these days.  Smiley
Yes it is, I see Messi and Neymar like being reborn. Although not fully playing like when they were at Barcelona, but their current form is good news. In every game they are increasingly visible in the form of the game they have, it's just that last season the ability was not visible. Their stats have improved this season compared to last season.

Regarding the champions league, I have no doubt that Galtier's squad will make it to the next round. however, if we talk about the champions league title.
at least, PSG is one of the strongest candidates from several other candidates who are favorites to win the champions league.
Well, I prefer to let time answer that. whether messi can bring his squad to the champions league title for the first time, let's enjoy game by game and let time tell.

To my surprise bookies rate PSG as the second top contender to win the Champions League with 5.55 odds (Manchester City are the top contender with 2.85 odds).

Neymar and Messi cooperation has been a huge help for PSG so far in the league. Neymar has 8 goals and 7 assists and Messi has 4 goals while having the same amount of assists. PSG really need these two players to be as consistent as possible. Mbappe's single performance wouldn't be enough especially in the Champions League. The Ligue 1 is much easier for them so they don't need to make the same level of effort there. But the Champions League can be really cruel even while playing against weaker teams on paper.
