I started seeing the probability of Zidane to manage PSG as lower now. It depends on whether he goes for the France job actually. Deschamps' contract is running on December 31, 2022. Therefore Zidane is going to need to be patient until the World Cup ends. However I wonder if France are even thinking of parting their ways with Deschamps too. Maybe they will extend his contract depending on his success in the tournament. If we take this into account I reckon PSG will continue with Pochettino or maybe they will sign an unexpected name.
Yeah it seems that zidane is waiting for that france team management spot otherwise psg would've signed him i wish he would go to psg at least one season until the end of the world cup i don't think the frensh federation will change a manager before the world cup since it would be risky i think zidane with psg will do wonders and he can even win the champions league.

With so many star players that PSG have, it should be whoever coaches PSG will surely easily win the Ligue 1 trophy. The difficult thing is to win
the Champions League trophy, because PSG have fired their coach several times for failing to win the Champions League trophy.
I agree with your opinion. Even with his new coach, PSG will also be the favorite team to win the Ligue 1 title because PSG have a number of players they can rely on to prove it. PSG have not been able to win the Champions League title, and that is one result they may not be able to accept with Pochettino.the Champions League trophy, because PSG have fired their coach several times for failing to win the Champions League trophy.
But I have to be honest about PSG. They should be able to imitate Manchester City who collaborated with Guardiola in the last 5 seasons. Manchester City trust Guardiola completely to prove that they can be one of the teams who deserve to be favorites for the title every season. Even though Manchester City still failed, the improvement in the quality of the team was far more than the expected result. Giving every coach 1-2 seasons to achieve great success is something that coaches may not be able to easily prove. I believe that if PSG want to win the Champions League, then they have to work with one good coach for at least 5 seasons. But I agree Pochettino may not be a good category of coach for PSG to keep in the long term.

Even the possibility of Zinedine Zidane to sign for PSG is making the fans very excited already as it seems. However I'm doubting this to happen now considering that they say Zidane is thinking of a France national team job rather than working for PSG now. PSG can still change his mind too maybe and I hope so. I don't think that France need Zidane now as they are good with Deschamps. It would be much better to see him managing PSG and this can be very helpful for PSG to achieve the Champions League title finally too.
He may have great success in the French national team, but I want to see Zidane lead a team in the champions league final. That's why there's Psg, which can be considered a suitable job for him. Being French, knowing the league, making us think that he can gain a good tactic where he can play very successful matches. Zidane is one of the best options for France and PSG.

I don't remember when City last won the Champions League 
Instead, you would rather remember Bavaria or even Barcelona (although you should not expect any achievements from it in the coming years). Such top coaches as Zidane or Carlo, in my opinion, will not go to train such muddy clubs as PSG. Maybe only if the bosses of PSG finally despair and offer space money + real powers (so that you can kick out lazy people like Neymar or old players like Messi). But that time has not yet come.
City and PSG are desperate for the Champions League title. They are throwing money like it was nothing, to get players and prohibit the other teams from getting them.

For Zidane, I believe his goal is to train the French national team and Deschamps will most likely retire (or be sacked) after Qatar World Cup so we will see him soon, by 2023 tho
City and PSG are throwing money around precisely because it costs nothing for them - it's not "earned" money, but the money of the sheikhs behind which the state stands. Unfortunately, sooner or later they will get their way, but at least I will not see a situation where both of these cheating clubs win the Champions League in the same year, at least one will remain a loser
As for the players you listed, the golden years are already over for all of them, even for Neymar. I heard that the player is at the peak for about 5 years, for someone he comes in his youth, for someone already in maturity, like Zidane, it seems that Neymar has already passed his peak.

Basically Pochettino himself still has a contract at PSG and his current position is not safe because of Mbappe, because in Mbappe's contract extension it is possible to arrange such as firing or retaining players and even coaches. Well, unfortunately Mbappe was not too happy with Pochettino until Pochettino's position was threatened with being sacked, if Mbappe does not have such privileges then I believe Pochettino will remain safe at PSG at least until his contract ends.
Is not safe because of Mbappe? It can be true but Pochettino position is uncertain after he failed to bring PSG to final match of Champions League. Even final match is not a success for Pochettino and PSG. They want to win Champions League, not want to have another final match.Mbappe after signing a new contract, has more privileges in the club and he looks like not support Pochettino because Mbappe does not want to share much power in the club with team mates from Arghentina like Messi, Paredes, Di Maria, Icardi etc. Some of those players already left PSG and Mbappe has gradually gotten what he want.

I think you are wrong, minamino never played in leipzig, his last team was Salzburg...
Actually, Minamino's contribution to Liverpool has been good (he is number 5' Liverpool's top scorer) but he is not competitive with other Liverpool great players. there are also rumors, Lyon is also very interested in Minamino. looks like the competition to get minamino between Monaco and Lyon is about to happen!

Sorry, it must be a mistake I made. I don't know why but it came to my mind like it was Leipzig for a second.
As you said and corrected me, Salzburg were the team he performed the best so far. He hasn't found himself in Liverpool much but I understand this too. Because it is too difficult for him to have too many chances while there are much better alternatives in the team. His performance last season was good but he won't be more than a rotation player for Liverpool now. Because of that his next team should be a team that he can play in the starting eleven regularly. Monaco and Lyon are both good candidates. Monaco had a better season than Lyon last actually and I see them being one step ahead of Lyon in general for now.

PSG all stars are a team. Whoever comes to the position of coach, they will be champions in France. But if Zidane had taken over the team, PSG could have turned into an assertive team in the champions league. I think this was a good opportunity for PSG. But they could not evaluate. They are still a strong team. Christophe Galtier will also be successful.
There is no doubt for Ligue 1 but with the squad as it is now for PSG the target is not Ligue 1 but Champions League.Galtier is good enough for Monaco but most will doubt this coach especially for the Champions League because this is not Ligue 1 and in the Champions League almost all teams are seeded so he has to prove his quality here.
June 26, 2022, 06:12:05 PM
I would pick pochettino over Galtier and they are switching these two for some reason. Can't they just get another manager? Isn't there one that they could afford to get and be better than Galtier? Are there any free agent managers out there this year?
I also sincerely wonder why the Paris Saint-Germain leadership wants to replace Pochettino with Galtier's candidacy, then it would be better to leave Pochettino in this post for now. Undoubtedly, the shadow of Zinedine Zidane will hang over any coach who dares to lead a club like Paris Saint-Germain in any case. By the way, a strange situation has now been organized that concerns the coaching positions of two clubs at once. Lucien Favre is unable to start working with Nice due to the fact that Galtier has not yet left the club. And Galtier cannot come to Paris Saint-Germain as head coach due to the fact that Pochettino and the club's management cannot agree on the amount of compensation for the termination of the contract. PSG, which finds tens and hundreds of millions to sign new coaches and players and extend existing players, is sparing money and does not want to pay the full amount due to Pochettino for breaking the contract.

the Champions League trophy, because PSG have fired their coach several times for failing to win the Champions League trophy. The next victim
was Maurico Pochettino, although Pochettino managed to make PSG win the Ligue 1 trophy this season, but because of PSG's poor performance
in the Champions League, PSG management had to sack Pochettino. Now PSG are immediately signing Christophe Galtier as a new coach,
after failing to convince Zinedine Zidane to become PSG coach. To get Galtier PSG simply pay a compensation fee of 10 million euros, smaller than
the cost of sacking Pochettino of 15 million euros. It is likely that PSG will officially sack Pochettino and inaugurate Galtier as a new coach at
the beginning of next week.

well these two clubs are making a lot of money with these great players, for example or I read that Messi brought a lot of profit to PSG with the sale of shirts and other things and the more money these two clubs have the greater their appetite for having the most expensive players, the problem in all of this is whether their coach will be able to win the champions league. The champions league is a competition where in my opinion I would win by luck, when I say luck I mean that it is not the kind of competition where a team can say: "I'm going to sign all the best players in the world and with that I'm going to win champions league". and the team that thinks like this is deceiving itself

You can't imagine how much money has been spent by Nasser Al-Khelaifi to build the squad into a team that really thirsts for the UCL Trophy. The PSG squad is inhabited by star players such as Neymar, Messi, Mbappe, but in fact last season they still had to accept a bitter defeat and had to fall in this prestigious competition. Now Nasser Al-Khelaifi's ambition is really getting hotter this summer where he can persuade Mbappe to stay at PSG until 2025. Even Nasser Al-Khelaifi did not hesitate to fire Mauricio Pochettino in order to bring in a coach who really has experience and big mentality in champions league but who the coach is is still a big question mark. Is that the only way for PSG to win the UCL Trophy next season.It is hard to predict how good Neymar, Messi, or Ramos will do when they switch team..

Did you miss today's latest news? PSG have reportedly reached an agreement with Galtier and that means there is no hope for Zidane there.According to Marca, after failing to convince Zidane they are looking for a new Alternative and now Nice coach Galtier has been brought in for a deal under 10 million euros.
Although there are indeed many who doubt Galtier at this time but indeed when it was agreed then indeed we just have to wait for how this coach's progress at PSG.

Christophe Galtier is rumoured for the manager position of PSG now but I'm having my doubts about him. Because we have never watched him in action with one of the top teams in the world so far. As far as I can remember, the biggest teams he has worked with so far are Lille and Nice. I know that he was managing Lille when they reached the Ligue 1 title. However, his only successes are this and a French League Cup with St Etienne. I don't think this is enough to be the manager of a huge team like PSG.
There is another rumor that Zidane can be a coach for PSG too. Rumor is PSG still keep to negotiate with both Galtier and Zidane. Their priority is Zidane and Galtier is only their choice if they can not convince Zidane to take their coach position even they are very ready to give Zidane some special rights.Galtier is considered as a Mourinho version of France. I did not know about him before reading news about him and PSG recent months. He looks to have a very good CV in Ligue 1 but can not say he is better than Pochettino.

Takumi Minamino has exits Liverpool for AS Monaco. Perhaps it was good one for AS Monaco since he was their priority in the transfer window. Takumi will adapts to his new team, besides he wasn't too use to start games for Jurgen Klopp's side. He was transferred for a fee of €15m plus €3m in add-ons. Takumi been kept on the bench was not his fault though he choose Liverpool who has many key players, now he has realized his mistakes and sealed a permanent move to his new team.
Minamino is a pretty good player actually but at Liverpool it's clear he won't be the first choice because regardless of what many great players are here, it makes it very difficult for Minamino to break into the main squad.Monaco is not a bad place because at least here he can also be a part of the main squad. What he has to do is continue to do well in order to be an option here because the situation is different to Liverpool.
