With PSG gone from UCL and the team is in disarray I believe that the league will be even more harsh for them. I mean every team will want to take a bite out of them meanwhile their own players would be unhappy with the current situation and Mbappe looking to get out. When you are in that much trouble and you are not really doing that well, it is not really that easy to have a great result even against easier opponents.

Yes, they have been great in the league so far and have a lot of point difference but I believe that they could be hopeless about rest of the season and there could be a lot more "given up" results coming very soon.

I'm sure that PSG will have no problem finishing the season in Ligue 1. No team there, no matter how much they want to take a bite out of them, can't adequately compete with them. The only very unpleasant moment for PSG is that they have been eliminated from all competitions (even from the French Cup) and now they will be “cramped” in Ligue 1, which they have actually won. It will be something like a routine boring championship that you just have to wait. It's a sad situation for fans and players alike.

PSG winning league 1 doesn't mean anything in my opinion

they do not need league 1 title for anything, they want CL title, and this is what they want
League 1 championship would not satisfy anyone, and Mbappe is closer to be out, than in, for next season

where is he heading, Real probably, and that will be a top tandem, he and Benzema, to avoid any goalless match
Messi is also under question, probably Neymar as well, there is money, but without titles, it will be hard to retain them

I think the direction of PSG will give Messi and Neymar another chance after all it was their first year playing together at PSG.They will probably get better and be more harmonized next year in Champions League,maybe Mbappe goes out,they need some more harmony because all these great players playing together it looks like it is impossible to harmonize on field.Has anyone thought that maybe the coach is the one to be changed and not the players,nothing against the coach but just making an assumption.

For PSG winning league 1 doesn't mean anything in my opinion. because they are expected to win the league one because they are the best team in the whole League and no one even comes close to them in terms of power. I think for PSG now UEFA Champions League was the main target but they failed to achieve that and now a lot of their star players are showing interest to leave the team.

We all knew about Mbappe, but now we are also hearing about Messi wanting to leave the team. I think it's quite obvious that PSG is not the best place for these players.  and it's totally understandable why they want to leave.

PSG continues to receive pressure after pressure, even the fans mock the performance of Messi and Neymar, which is far from their expectations

although NICE and Marseille seem to be catching up at the back but I believe PSG will be able to become champions this season

I don't think so, on the contrary after being eliminated in the UCL stage they only focus on the domestic league and with the star players they have they will be very difficult to beat again, like this weekend they won 3-0 against Bordeaux and played almost all the main players , maybe I think PSG will be able to win the league earlier this season because the points are not being chased anymore.
For the players, they definitely have their own motivation to be able to show their best game, whether for the sake of being called up to the national team, attracting other teams who want to buy it or being included in the club's plans for next season.
I think that being eliminated from the UCL stage does not affect the performance shown by the players.

Paris Saint-Germain 3 - 0 Bordeaux

with this well-deserved victory, PSG are practically champions, I think it's impossible at the moment to have any team that can overcome them, they are 15 points ahead of them against second place, PSG can already celebrate that they are champions. As for the other teams, I just hope that next season they will become very strong to be champions and Ligue 1 to become more competitive. funniest aside is that Neymar scored, but Messi seems to be in a crisis of not scoring goals
The whistle against Messi and Neymar is showing how much PSG fans are unsatisfied with their performance. Getting out of the CL that humiliating way wasn't acceptable for them. Even winning in this match didn't calm them down.
15 points difference for the moment with 10 games left, PSG has to win 5 matches to get the title, well seeing their rivals performance, they might finish the race earlier tho
At least this will strengthen them to have come enthusiastically. After being eliminated, the hope only in Ligue 1, his popular name only in the local league, but the problem is Ligue 1 is not soo popular like premier Liga, La Liga, and Serie A, IMO. I don't know what is Mbappe feeling?, he is still young, if still only has just 1 kind of trophy I think is not the best player in the world.

Rennes' performance so far has been very satisfying, they managed to win 4-2 from lyon and that victory made them move up to 3rd place in the standings.  marseille will face brest, and the match will take place at home brest. if marseille manages to win then they will shift NICE's position and occupy the 2nd position in the standings.
Today we have one off most entertaining match of Super Sunday which give a big defeat to home team Lyon with this defeat now their hopes for European qualification for next season have big below because now they are down and need some strong comeback which is not looking good with their current form.

At half-time, result was 0 - 3 which was really shocking, but Rennes were completely in control, and they were not allowing home players for any fight back which give them good advantage with this success now they are at third spot which is not secure but today if Brest beat Marseille then surely they can stay here for some more weeks as now few good teams are struggling but Nice, Rennes And Strasbourg are very good and strong for good end of this season and few teams are unexpectedly going down due to poor form and unpredictable performance in all season.
Big win for Renne, they are trying to secure a spot in the top3. After winning Lyon at home 4-2. It was a bad results for Lyon. The Renne team is extremely careful not to drop points and slide over their rival on the table Marseille. Although, Lyon are also looking forward to qualify for the Europa league. They lost their game against Renne which makes them to be out of the contender for the top4 for the champions league qualifier this season. They will rather focus for the europa season qualifier for next season, and also focus on their game on Tuesday. Lyon will be hosting their rival Porto at home, after a 1-0 win in the first leg. They would just played a defensive game on Tuesday to to see through into the next round.

Paris Saint German are not happy ever since they were knock-out of the champions league by their rival Real Madrid. Madrid did an incredible come-back with a 3-2 aggregate, all thanks to Madrid top striker Benzema. He made it happen after recording a hattrick within the space of 10th minutes against PSG goal keeper who is currently one time winner of the Euro 2021, Donnarumma.
Understandable because the main target of PSG is Champions League, not Ligue 1. They rejected the big offer of Real Madrid for Mbappe last year just because of Champions League. They also brought Messi, Donnarumma, Hakimi, Ramos, Wilnaldum to Paris but they failed with this target. They disappointed for sure and I understand why.

People talked too much about Donnarumma who made a mistake but of course there is something wrong with VAR as well. In addition, don't blame on all Donnnarumma and that goal because before that goal, Donnarumma did have a good save for PSG. In my opinion, it is one good save to reject one goal and one bad mistake causes a goal. Fair enough for Donnarumma to say he has a normal match.

All eyes on Pochetino, the former Spur's boss who is looking forward to get the team back to it's best form again.It was a disastrous night for PSG. Their elimination spell doom for them, they would focus on their league games now in other to maintain their Top1 on the Ligue 1 table.
Pochettino is only a coach and he can not play on behalf of his players. His plan almost works well but some serious mistakes of his players changed all. Bad decision from VAR and referee contribute to that result too. It is very likely that Pochettino will be sacked after this season.

I admit Mbappe has always given his best and scored more goals than any other PSG star ahead of them but Mbappe is said to be moving as well. Rumors also say Neymar will also be sold but what is PSG's desire after bringing in a great player but if he doesn't win the UCL everything will be in vain, is that so? Messi is only a statue but with high fees that are not commensurate with his appearance because he began to decline in his performance.
I honestly think the problem is the coach. Because, if the coach was someone like Zidane, he would have managed the team far better. Because then if any player set that I would not want to do this, he would have said that ""I'm Zidane, you do what I say"" , he has enough confidence to say like that & dominance over other. But the other coaches certainly cannot do that in my opinion, and that is a big problem, to be honest.
With all my great respect for Pochettino's coaching talents, it is still worth admitting that he cannot cope with the overwhelming ego of his star players and bring everything to a common denominator. It is not for nothing that Paris Saint-Germain fans in their appeal to the club's management said that why would a coach be respected in the locker room if the decisions are clearly not made by him. In principle, Zidane had a similar situation in Real Madrid and thanks to his authority, including as a former top player, he could manage the situation, even if not always successfully with everyone, but when there are a lot of players in the team constantly claiming leadership, such a situation is inevitable.

This was already an obvious score to me. Because PSG were the leader and Bordeaux were at the last place in the standings. And in this situation, Bordeaux had really no chance technically. PSG consolidated their place more by defeating them by a comfortable score. But even in a game like this, Messi didn't do anything. He is still not able to give what is expected from him. And I really wonder whether Messi will go back to Barcelona after this season. There have been some speculations in that way but let's wait and see.

But in the end the win doesn't really mean anything anymore in light of all the things that are about to happen for PSG. They will be punished by the UEFA, Mbappe is going to leave the club. I also can't see why Messi would stay until 2023. Who knows what Neymar is going to do? He is 30 years old now, if he wants to change something one more time, it is now or never. Pochettino will be fired after the season and even the director of sports is probably supposed to leave. There will be a new PSG next season I guess. The fans are even yelling that the sheikh should step back, but what would PSG be without all the money?

I read the text broadcast of the match and it seems that now the PSG fans are booing everyone (especially Neymar and Messi) except Mbappe (who is leaving the club). On the one hand, this is funny, but on the other hand, Mbappe gives all his best and it's hard to deny. And with regard to the rest of the players, it seems that the fans had a fracture in their minds and now they see them only as mercenaries who earn a lot of money but do not give results.

Messi is only a statue but with high fees that are not commensurate with his appearance because he began to decline in his performance.

PSG at the end of the season is in ruins: they lose 200 million euros that Real Madrid offered them for Mbappe and he leaves for free. Neymar +- plays, but it is impossible to sell him even for a third of the amount that was once paid for him. Messi has become a mere museum piece (although he is only 34 years old) - he has a big name, but it quickly fades.
A sad story for the sheikhs who wanted trophies, but will only get the championship in the fifth league of Europe  Grin

... Did you see bad quality in the game between Real Madrid and PSG until the minute when Benzema scored after a mistake? I didn't see bad quality. That was absolute outstanding. They were dangerous as *** offensively, and they were doing ok defensively. The reason that these players can't perform at their maximum all the time in Ligue 1 is because they have seen and won so much, I think it is just human that you can't play at 110%. You are just not able to motivate yourself so hard because you are usually going to win the national title anyway. But really, speaking of low quality is quite far off...
I also completely disagree that Paris Saint-Germain showed poor quality of play in the match with Real Madrid. If it hadn't been for Donnarumma's monstrous mistake and then the referee's unwillingness to fix the violation of the rules of the game, then PSG should have calmly won this match because it looked much more solid in the game. Carlo Ancelotti would have been on the verge of being fired from Real Madrid, because before this match there were rumors that Florentino Perez was very unhappy with the first match and threatened to fire the head coach if the club did not advance to the next stage of the tournament. Another question is that such a strong team should not fall apart in a few minutes, as happened after Benzema's second goal, and this is some fault of the average level of the French championship, where the absolute majority of teams do not pose such problems to such an indisputable leader as PSG.

Yes, but are you referring to Donnaruma's situation when you say that the referee was unwilling to punish Benzema for his attack? I must honestly say that I do agree it was probably a foul, but I wasn't surprised there was no whistle. It was one of these situations where there is so much drama in the game and Donnaruma did indeed *** it up, that a referee might just let the game continue. The VAR can't even do much as far as I know in such a situation.

The French league now will be some sad final weeks. PSG without motivation, but still bringing home the national trophy, but nobody in the world cares. Sad to not see Mbappe play anymore in the CL. The guy is an absolute beast and a future world soccer player.
Well indeed in this case it might be a long debate about the incident that befell Benzema and Donaruma but on the other hand the match is over and the referee's decision cannot be contested in this matter.
Winning a trophy in the domestic league for them is not too strange so it's because they have now dominated there even since a few years ago so it's very natural that no one cares about it

That's of course correct and I really didn't want to challenge the referee's opinion. In fact other referees might have decided the same way.

Anyway, the win of PSG with 3 -0 was accompanied by the fans yelling at Neymar and Messi. This is probably not how Messi envisioned his stay at Paris. Then again, I think he doesn't even care anymore. He won 6 trophies as a world soccer player and is most likely not going to win another one. Let's see if Mbappe can one day manage to get close to him in terms of trophies. Mbappe is certainly a real rocket.

I can see there performance is very well against Bordeaux as they are already leading with three goals
Yes they are leading with 3 goals and they are the strongest in Ligue 1, but I am still always confused that Messi is not scoring, Kylian Mbappe scored the first goal, Neymar scored the second goal while Leandro Daniel Paredes scored the third goal, I am still surprise that Messi is playing in the front and yet not scoring well. Maybe it is age that is telling or maybe other players are not working well with him believing in the old players there like Mbappe and Meymar.
Age is indeed quite influential, but on the other hand, in this case, Messi's adaptation can be said to be quite slow because he still has not been able to adapt well in Ligue 1, especially at PSG.
But it's quite natural, he's only moved for the first time now and indeed the pattern of Messi's game with PSG, I don't think is very suitable and will only make the goat confused, so it's very difficult to make goals there unlike at the previous club.

Kylian Mbappe once again lead his team with scoring, then Neymar and Leandro get goals equally single goal.  
However, Messi and Neymar are getting extremely clearly whistled with each touch they make against Bordeaux. It seems like supporters blew up over Messi and Neymar as both performance lead champions league dismissal somehow. Ligue 1 trophies isn't their priorities but Champions League. They sure they deserve it, they're simply waste of investment. Especially Neymar.
