Zinedine Zidane is wanted for the PSG manager position so much because people believe in him to lead the team to the Champions League title. They believe in him because his history with Real Madrid was very bright. He had many Champions League titles with them and it was one of the great periods in Real Madrid history for sure. PSG squad is also good enough for Zidane to make them the champions. PSG haven't had any problem with their squad so far. The main issue has been related to management.

But with his leadership I think there is more hope when Zidane is there indeed this is not a guarantee but it is not wrong to have high expectations for Zidane's cold hand.
Galtier does have a pretty good performance increase because apart from bringing Nice to be in the top 5, I think this is still not enough to give big hype to PSG.

No coach can guarantee to win the Champions League title. Last season, Manchester City, Liverpool, and PSG were among the favorites for the Champions League title. But Real Madrid won the title. If Zidane is PSG's coach, PSG's chances of winning the Champions League may increase, but no one can guarantee that PSG will win the Champions League.

After those three seasons there was another season and a half at Real Madrid when he won the Li Liga but failed to win the Champions League. No coach can guarantee a Champions League win, but it's safe to assume that a certain list of coaches have more serious chances than everyone else and Zidane is one of those who are included in this group.

I don’t think that Zidane will guarantee instant champions league at PSG, because he’ll require at least two full seasons to build the team in his image, but PSG owner’s are impatient and he’ll probably be sacked before that. Lastly it’ll be interesting to see him perform at PSG as it’s a weaker league, and Champions League is difficult hence we should not expect much from Zidane especially when it comes to champions league.

The schrodingers cat situation with Zidane is ab it of a confusing one. Yes he coached Madrid to titles all the time he played, and won UCL three times in a row, and all of that are correct stuff. However, he managed only 3 seasons and even though he was amazing using that time, he didn't managed any before or after. Which means that we need to see a great sample to say if he is as good as we think or not.

Maybe if he managed real Madrid since those days, they wouldn't get another but ancelotti got it? Who knows, is there a guarantee that it would happen? Or if he goes to PSG today, maybe they won't even win the league let alone UCL, is there a proof? We just need to wait and see.

There is no need to question Zinedine Zidane's management so far that's for certain. He has a really amazing history with Real Madrid which is full of Champions League titles at the same time. When we consider this fact, PSG must definitely prioritize him rather than other managers. Zidane can lead this team to the victory in the Champions League. I don't mention the Ligue 1 because they are already the highly dominant team in this league. In this situation, their main goal is to win the Champions League title.

These are your assumptions, but not a fact. No one knows how much voting power Mbappe has. Talk of Mbappe wanting Zidane to replace Poccetino began long before he (unexpectedly) accepted PSG's offer and turned down Real Madrid. I hope, after all, Zidane is smart enough to refuse PSG and strive for the French national team where he wanted. Given the results of Deschamps, there is something to work on  

Zidane is indeed a coach who has a very good track record, especially when he coached Real Madrid. But that doesn't mean that if Zidane is at PSG, PSG will easily win the UCL title, because it seems that the UCL title is a curse for PSG . BTW, apart from Zinedine Zidane, there is also Christophe Galtier who is a candidate for PSG manager next season. Galtier managed to steal the public's attention after bringing OGC Nice to become champions in Ligue 1.

Agree with what you said. Zidane is a very good coach for now even though he didn't coach last season but if you look at what he did before with Madrid, it would obviously be a big advantage if he was there and it's not impossible that they can get the Champions League too.
although there must be adjustments and adaptations but I feel that he is very easy to socialize there so this is not too much of a problem.
But until now the deal is still not there and this is what makes it difficult for PSG.

Yes, well the fact is that Mbappé at PSG will continue to grow, but note that Haaland changed teams, Lewa is considering playing for another team that many think will be Barcelona, in my opinion PSG has so much money that hopefully and not run out to be able to retain their players, although I don't know what happens with that team that from one moment to another when they lose, they lose everything that is most important, for my team it would be more complete if they hired a Haaland or even up to a CR7, which is something impossible, but since money does almost everything (clearly demonstrated with Mbappé) that the Sheikh has not been able to consolidate the dream team, what I like most about this is that the French league always gives What to talk about, for a few years now we hear about the French League, Bundesliga, PL, but before it was only the Italian and Spanish League that was most requested.

Well regardless of what Zidane does is respectable for me, but if he manages to be at PSG, I take my hat off to the Sheikh, because taking Zidane is a guarantee of winning even the UCL, and everything that comes to PSG, I think that with a coach like him any team gets ahead.

relegation to the 2nd league was already a bitter blow for the traditional club girondins bordeaux, and now it's getting even worse for the club
as it became known today, girondis (due to the high debts) must even be relegated to the 3 division.

PSG will dream of winning the Champions League again if they get a coach like Zidane. PSG has a lot of talented star players. But they do not have an experienced coach. As a result, their performance in the Champions League last season was poor. Zidane is suitable for PSG. But just for the money, Zidane will not take charge of any club where he has to follow Mbappe's direction.

PSG and Pochettino are rumored to have agreed to end their partnership and PSG will soon issue an official statement in the next few days, if Pochettino really leaves of course Zidane is a strong candidate to replace PSG coach, right now mbappe does have a big influence on club decisions, but I think it will be difficult for mbappe to manage zidane in terms of coaching, because after all, zidane experience and authority while coaching Madrid will certainly make zidane more respected by mbappe, besides that it is reported that mbappe himself asked if PSG recruited zidane as coach next season, I think even though mbappe has a strong influence at PSG but I believe that zidane has anticipated this if later he will coach PSG.

He may be given the right to vote but the decision rests with the club's top brass. Mbappe could have suggested whatever he wanted to the club's top brass if it was really for the good of the team, but giving the right to decide on difficult matters like nominations for coaches makes no sense. He might only get the right to suggest based on his opinion, nothing more.

Zidane would suit PSG in my opinion, I don't think the situation is bad for him now and for the next few seasons.

If so, then Mbappe's position has already become indecently significant. Maybe he has the audacity to continue to use his privileges without suffering and worsening sports results, but I think this state of affairs will put a lot of pressure on other players. And I don't know how stupid (or greedy haha) Zidane has to be to go to PSG where it's such an unhealthy situation.

I agree that Monaco are a team from Ligue 1 whose form has been quite impressive this season, unfortunately they failed to reach second place,
even though looking at their performance, I think they deserve to be in second place compared to Marseille. Unfortunately in the last game against
Lens, they lost concentration in the last minute. So that Monaco conceded in the 96th minute, this may be a lesson for Monaco to always be vigilant
before the game actually ends. I believe that for next season Monaco will be a team that can make it difficult for PSG, especially this year Monaco
has just appointed a new coach.

Philipe Clement officially becomes Monaco's main coach in 2022, and few may know him, but he is quite famous in Belgium. Clement managed to
win 3 Belgian League trophies when he was the coach of Genk and Club Brugge,  this achievement which finally attracted the interest of
the Monaco management, and signed Philipe Clement as Monaco's main coach until 2024. Clement immediately proved he was a great coach,
which before the match against Lens which ended in a draw, Clement managed to make Monaco win 9 consecutive wins in Ligue 1, including
successfully defeating PSG with a fairly large score. So I believe Philipe Clement can make Monaco a team that can make things difficult
for PSG next season.

I also think that Zinedine Zidane would be able to cope with managing such a specific team as Paris Saint-Germain like no one else and the same Mbappe would not be able to put his wishes above the team ones. Another question is that the appointment of Zidane to the post of head coach of the team, which until recently seemed to be almost a settled issue, suddenly hung in the air. Now the most likely candidate for the appointment of the head coach of the team is Christophe Galtier, who is now the head coach of Nice. Another question is that Mbappe objects to this candidacy, and it seems that the player was even given the right to vote on this issue when extending the contract.

besides Monaco and Marseille, nice is also a good team. I still remember how NICE beat PSG even though PSG was in full strength (Neymar, Messi, and mbappe). because of that, there are also rumors that the PSG owner really appreciates the NICE coach. PSG coach hasn't been announced yet, I'm curious what will happen to PSG under the leadership of a new coach next season.

Monaco and Marseille were the teams that I liked very much right after PSG. Especially Monaco seemed much stronger in the final moments of the season as they had a lasting winning streak like nine games or so. They were even winning against Lens too but they were devastated by a last minute goal which caused them to lose the second position to Marseille. However I appreciate them both and I'm hopeful about them for next season too. Maybe these two wouldn't be able to make difficulties for PSG but they can have this fight again.
