I think that even if they have the best trident in the world, they are still very relaxed, I know that Messi has been criticized a lot, especially when Mbappé gave up the penalty kick that Messi missed, this has caused a lot of controversy, especially for PSG fans who have been lately very demanding, the French League has already been practically won, but when Mbappé leaves, which is a fact, will there be other repercussions for PSG?
Of course the impact for PSG when they lost Mbappe was to lose their goalscorer. PSG have sufficient financial means to get another player but maybe they will not get a player equal to Mbappe. He is a long-term project for any team that manages to sign him but PSG must be prepared to let him go before the season end if they fail to progress to the next round in the Champions League.

About Messi I feel he is still doing well with PSG even though on many occasions he has failed to score against the opponent. Finally, Messi failed to execute a penalty against Real Madrid because his shot was easily read by Courtois. But it's not a big problem because to be honest Neymar, Mbappe also failed to do so.

But PSG's poor results will not cost them the title this season as PSG still lead the Ligue 1 standings with a 13-point advantage over other competitors.
Maybe you are right because I believe Marseille and some other teams will not be able to make PSG lose the title this season even though PSG can still drop a few more points in the remaining 13 match this season.

I believe PSG can lock up the title sooner this season if they are able to win the remaining 8/13 match remaining in the season because other teams will also drop points in the rest of the season in my opinion. So far, PSG seems to be still focusing on the Champions League and this is a mandatory target this season in addition to the Ligue 1 title.
I have weighed the strength of the other teams in ligue 1, no one is showing sign to contend with PSG. Then, PSG is too relaxed and very sure they have won the league. Their only target which has been their target from onset is Champions league.
They spent much for Neymar because of it and yet didn't get it. They spent for Mbappe to synergise with Neymar but to no avail. Finally, they bought arguably the world best player. Let us see how the trio will fair.

Yes, he still has about 5 years of peak form ahead of him, but I doubt that he has a chance to dominate like other great players did before him. Plus, there are already a number of young players who claim to be top 1 - Mbappe, Haaland, maybe Vinicius. It is far from certain that they will be able to do this, maybe they will face the same problems as Neymar, but I would rather bet on them than on him.
Neymar has been good for a long time, I was personally expecting him to be the next reign after Ronaldo and Messi. I don't known if I will say that he came at the wrong time. He came when Ronaldo and Messi was at their peak for decade plus. But currently many young players are out, you did not include Salah in the list because he is to me now like a world best. He is really good at it.

Salah clearly does not belong to the young and promising - he is 29 years old, perhaps he has not yet reached his peak, but I cannot call him young. It's not about Ronaldo or Messi as Neymar looks like he would have lost to any other opponent for the top 1: Lewandowski, Xavi, Iniesta, Ribery and many other players were better or certainly not worse than Neymar. We can say that Neymar has not fully revealed his potential.

Neymar is a very talented player. I'm not saying he came at the wrong time. He would have been in the same row as Messi and Ronaldo had it not been for his injury problems. He suffered a lot of injuries and could not perform in important matches. If he haven't this problem, then he would have fought with Messi and Ronaldo to win the Ballon d'Or.
Neymar is indeed the best player after Messi and Ronaldo, but recently new young players have emerged, such as mbappe, and Moh was wrong, but unfortunately Neymar's chances of getting the Ballon Deor will be very difficult, because every year there will be talented young players.

Actually Neymar is still not too old, when compared to Messi and Ronaldo. But too many injuries at PSG made his form decline. Regarding
the Ballon d'Or I doubt Neymar can win it, because there are so many rivals now. There is still Lewandowski who played amazingly with Bayern
more deserving of winning the Ballon d'Or. Then as you said every year there are always outstanding young players. I think Neymar's decision
to move to PSG was a mistake, because when he played for PSG, Neymar was prone to injury. Even though the Ligue 1 competition is not as tough
as La Liga, maybe the training method is not appropriate. I really hope Neymar can find his best form again.

I believe Neymar will have his shot at winning the Ballon d'Or, only when he plays a season without getting injured. Lastly it’s my personal belief that Neymar can score more goals than any other player can, but for that to happen he needs to be injury free, so let’s hope in the new season he can finally show why he deserves to win the Ballon d'Or.

as long as neymar remains at psg they will be out and will not win any individual prize as has happened with ronaldo and messi just observe the following:

let's see the example of cristiano ronaldo, he plays well but he is in manchester which is a club that is out due to not having a good coach and players and cristiano ronaldo is out, he has not been that cristiano ronaldo who saved the team in the last few minutes

this happens with neymar, psg has good players are so good that neymar is off and his style of play is not very suitable for league 1 if neymar were to play in real madrid or city? he would be a brilliant player and would get a lot of media attention

The new week starts with a tough game like Montpellier - Rennes. This is an important game for Rennes and they would make use of a win here. Because there is a Strasbourg - Nice game too and Rennes might go one position up if Strasbourg lose points. But it is not going to be easy for Rennes to win here. Montpellier are only three points behind now. They are not much different than Rennes now. And Rennes' recent performance in away games has been terrible. They lost their last four away games. This time, I think we will see a draw.

Neymar still best forward for PSG and I think he can playing well depending can take his performance and keep his body balance keep consistent, usually many Brazil player can't keep their body balance how to be good athlete with keep healthy, but I see still have potential for Neymar going on his career with PSG for several years later, I see will give many advantage for PSG keep ask Neymar stay on PSG for Ligue 1 trophy and will have several trophy for next year I think will give by Neymar.

Yes, Neymar's stats don't look like the top 1 player in the world https://www.transfermarkt.us/fc-paris-saint-germain/toptorschuetzen/verein/583 - he looks worse than all his competitors and it seems unlikely that he will ever be able to repeat the words of Ibrahimovic "I came as a king and I leave as a legend"  Grin
Although it must be admitted that in the national team he has phenomenal statistics and he is close to the top.

We have no doubt that Neymar is a great player. There are very few talented players like him in the world. But he also has a lot of problems. He wears lots of injuries. In the PSG team, he does not get a chance to play 20 matches every season. He has played only 11 matches this season. So despite being a talented player, he may not be a legend like Messi or Ronaldo.

Yes, he still has about 5 years of peak form ahead of him, but I doubt that he has a chance to dominate like other great players did before him.

Lyon and Lille game seems like a much better game to watch this week. I am not saying that they would be having a game that would be greatly entertaining to watch, but these are two great teams that ended up being not so great.

Lyon had like a decade long domination over ligue 1 back in the day and horrible right now, and Lille is the latest champion and ended up being bad this season as well. All in all I would guess that this game may not be entertaining because of big talent but it could be very entertaining to watch in the long run because it would actually matter a lot for the future of these teams and I am expecting the result to give one of them a good momentum.

Maybe it is not a big game but I wonder which side will be the winner or whether there will be a winner. I mean the Strasbourg - Nice game in three days. Strasbourg are the most interesting team of the season to me. They didn't start to the season good but they fixed most of their problems later on. And now, they are at the fourth place in the standings being only three points behind Nice. And Nice are having a solid season also. They are performing much better than the previous season and fighting for the second place to be able to qualify for the CL groups directly. I feel like this game would end in a draw.
Strasbourg is big package of this season and with current form most chances they will stay here at top, and they will try to clinch third spot because this is currently achievable for few teams with current form they are a strong candidate for this spot right now Lyon and Monaco are struggling and have very few chances for grabbing this Nice and Strasbourg are both fighting hard, but form is going with home team even their start of this season was not ideal, but later they achieve some good success.

We still have 13 round left in this season and few changes possible but few teams playing unpredictable which is going to be concern for them at the end of this season most chances defending champion is going to be in middle of table and Monaco and Lyon will try to have some better place.

I am hardly surprised at the defeat of PSG,they have an important match against Real Madrid in Bernabeu stadium and their full focus is there.They sure play the games in the Ligue 1 but their concentration is normally not being the same as the one they will have in the return leg against Real Madrid.
This is not enough reason for PSG to lose to Nantes. PSG didn't play well and that is it. By the way the have torns of stars so the have all it takes to win both local leagues and the championship league the were only been too lazy. By they want the only have 1 goal against Maldrid and who knows what the return leg brings

Quote
Also the fact that Neimar missed the penalty does not surprise me,they are already 13 points ahead and they are already Champions of the Ligue 1 this season,other lost games can be expected from PSG and they are not a safe team to bet on the Ligue 1 anymore at least for this season.In Champions is a completely different story as that is now their main objective.
PSG has all it takes to win the championship league but I doubt if they are really prepared for it. They had good advantage in the first leg over Maldrid but didn't utilze it what's the possibility of winning the second leg. The should face both leagues. The League 1 and the championships league so Incase the lose out on one the can pursue the other with full force

It is not acceptable result for PSG they have. But they can not blame on Champions League because PSG have good players for their second squad so that they can win many matches in Ligue 1 with their second Tier players. Sometimes their substitute players can not perform well after long time on the bench but it is not all to assess their quality

Neymar has never been in his best in this season. Over weighted, got injuries, lot of time to recover, unhealthy habit and he is going to his 30. It is bad to see Neymar is going towards downside of his career without good recognition as ther third best players under only Messi and Ronaldo.

This season, Messi and Ronaldo don't have good performance and I belelive important reason is their ages. They have more professional than others and with their talent, they become legends. Neymar has taldnf but unprofessional and his bad habit restrict him to join top players

Goodnight, o_e_l_e_o 🌹
Neymar is one of the very special players in football history. But the problem is that he gets injured very often. And I have heard a statement from him like that he would think of playing in the MLS as a season is shorter there. Because he doesn't want to play a very long season every year and he wants to allocate more time to some other activities. In this way, he thinks that he can play football for longer years. I respect his words but I really wouldn't like to see him in a league like that so earlier. It is great to watch him in Europe now.
Most times people talk down on Neymar. They say things like he is greedy and he is selfish and he losses the ball or plays with the ball. They say many things about him but I have studied him very well. Neymar is a great player after the likes of Ronaldo and Messi. What I admire about him most is his ability to push the ball from the centre to the opponents 18yard box. He is good at samba football which is what Brazil is known for. Very skillful and visionary. I wouldn't want anything to make Neymar stop playing football. I love his swag.

Reading some frankly dumb headlines about Messi being vindicated because of mistakes made by Neymar (penalty, of course, yes it was weak but he also scored so the media is being unfair I think, even if I did previously say Mbappe should be PK taker) and worse, because of Wijnaldum's handball. I mean come on everybody gives away sometimes it was obviously unintentional right. Anyway, 10 points lead (considering game extra). It's nothing.
When you spend a fortune in a player but he performs like an ordinary player and he miss a penalty then everyone will roast him. They will criticise everything in fact related to him until he returns to his actual performance then they will say that's the player we know. Personally I am still waiting for way more from him..

neymar is in a club where his talent will not be well used due to his style of play, I think that if neymar were in a club like real madrid or city he would be playing very well and would not always be injured. the style of play in franca does not suit him and messi this is my opinion



PSG 1 - 3 Nantes

It was a rather sad game, I say that because PSG had 72% possession of the ball but couldn't score goals, on the contrary, once again the old ghost of the past (poor defense) came back to haunt them and they conceded 3 goals. if the clubs were stronger, PSG probably wouldn't be able to be champions in almost every year. because the odds are very low on PSG games I don't place bets and therefore I don't lose money, but I wonder if anyone bet that PSG would win?
