Congrats to PSG on their 5-1 win over Lorient today but there was nothing interesting about that either. I wouldn't change my attitude against this match even if PSG won by 10-0 or some score like that. Because there is a huge quality difference between these teams. And we know PSG can do everything whenever they want against this kind of small teams. But it was still good to see especially Neymar and Messi contributing nicely to the team. They have been criticised and booed lately. It would be good for them to improve their games like this.

Actually it is not surprising if PSG managed to beat Lorient with a big score. Because apart from Lorient being a weak team, PSG also played with
their main players, so it was very easy for PSG to beat Lorient. What surprised me was not the big score scored by PSG, but the 5 goals that were
created came from their 3 strikers. Neymar and Mbappe scored two goals each and Messi scored one goal, PSG should be able to play like this.
But as you said we cannot conclude PSG have started to find their best game, because PSG managed to win with a big score. Because Lorient is
too weak, and the difference in the quality of the players is also quite far. But at least Neymar and Messi managed to answer the criticism of
many people by making a big contribution in the victory against Lorient. If PSG can win in the remaining 8 matches, and being able to beat Marseille
who is in second place in the table, I admit PSG are starting to find their best form.

If there is something I don't like about PSG is how much they keep conceding...and as long as they don't work on their defense then let them forget about winning any champions League trophy they long for otherwise some impressive lead in their local league against Lorient...less than 10 minutes to go and they lead 4-1.

and the game ended with 5 goals from PSG, really today they were very inspired and curiously neymar managed to score 2 goals and messi scored 1 goal and as expected Kylian Mbappé also scored 2 goals. with that they increase the advantage they have in relation to the other teams, but I still think that if the other teams were very strong then they would not have that much advantage

It was a great match. Three of the forward's players are back in form. At the same time, every player on the team was very confident. From their own place, they have continued to try their best to play well. But PSG could have done better in the Champions League if the three Forward players had done such a great job against Real Madrid. Winning the Ligue 1 title is almost certain for PSG.

Saint-Etienne 2 - 4 Marseille

with this victory they are in second place

It was a one-sided match. It is easy to assume that Marseille will win and we have got the expected results. Saint Etienne is a very weak team, very close to the relegation zone. However, I was surprised that Etienne scored two goals in this match. Marseille's defense is strong enough. Etienne's performance against Marseille is certainly commendable. Because if the accidents had not happened in the match, then maybe Marseille could not have won. Marseille have scored two goals from the penalty spot and one was an own goal.

Of course, there is nothing certain about the Zinedine Zidane transfer for PSG. But I'm sure that he is their prioritized target for the manager position. Pochettino has no chance to stay here from now on I think. He had a big task like winning the Champions League title but he failed very early. Winning the Ligue 1 title won't change anything as it is already easy for the team with any manager. Zinedine Zidane wasn't thinking of any manager job some time ago. But if he changed his mind, then he might likely to accept PSG's offer.

If Zidane accepts PSG's offer then this is the biggest good news for PSG. Because they have an extraordinary squad, the squad has no shortage of talented and star players. Their only shortcoming was the lack of experienced coaches. PSG has failed to improve itself due to lack of experienced coaches and poor match strategy. If Zidane takes charge of PSG. Then maybe PSG will be able to do better in the Champions League next season.

I cannot say that PSG problem of not winning the Champions League is caused by coaching. Pochettino is a good coach, even when he was in England, he had an average team and he did wonders with it. Having a good team he also did well, being eliminated by Real Madrid shouldn't be seen as weakness.
The problem of PSG is that they play much against low rating clubs and it affects them when they face real big teams.

Zidane to PsG will be a good move because Zidane knows how to manage big players in a team and have result.

You indicated a good thing that PSG don't have much competition in their league now. Because none of their opponents in the Ligue 1 has a squad quality even near PSG's. It is important for a team to face challenging teams to see their weak spots and try to find a permanent solution for them. But PSG are able to beat any team whenever they want so it must be feeling more difficult to compete against the biggest teams of the Champions League. But I think that Pochettino's coaching also is not that good now. Zidane might be way better for them.

PSG has ability to beat any team. MNM trio can destroy defense of any team. You have got the point that coach isn't perfect and his tactics are not effective anymore. Besides, defense and midfield are not well enough. They need a new coach and some quality full players for improvement on defense and midfield.

They just got scored once, that isn't that bad is it? I mean I get that people expect them to beat other teams without conceding a goal but when you beat them 5-1, that means maybe you didn't care about defense all that much because you didn't had to.

I am sure that they must be very happy with this game, the famous trio neymar-mbappe-messi all scored and that hasn't happened too many times this season in the same game, not sure if it even happened? So it was definitely a game to celebrate by them and it looks like they didn't care about defense after the third goal, and finished with 5 goals anyway. I hope to see them continue down this path, but mbappe will probably leave.

This was a very easy victory for PSG maybe but I was really impressed to see the attacking line's performance in this game. Mbappe had a spectacular performance by 2 goals and 3 assists. It is like he is putting on a great show before leaving the team to join Real Madrid most probably. And I must indicate Messi and Neymar's performances too. Neymar got 2 goals and Messi got one. But they are still not very consistent players though. They need to be more consistent to convince people about a good future.

After the score was 2-1 I began to doubt that this would be an easy match. Mbappe is incredible. Neymar was also good in this match, and Messi scored a third of all his goals in Ligue 1 today Grin

It seems that the games in the national teams have dispelled the negative thoughts of the players and now they play more relaxed with the actual games in mind and not indulging in memories of the one-eighth final of the Champions League.

Maybe their opponent is a too weak one but the Messi - Mbappe - Neymar trio are playing just as we all would like to see from them. Mbappe scored 2 goals and made 2 assists so far. He is the player of the game by far without doubt. Neymar and Messi also scored one goal each here. PSG must be wishing that they were playing like this against Real Madrid too. Then, I believe that Real Madrid would have no chance against them. The real problem is this for PSG. They just can't reflect their full potential on the Champions League.

lorient are in 15th place in the standings while PSG topped the standings with 68 points, far behind marseille

one other thing that caught my attention was that the three PSG strikers each scored in the match in mbappe, messi and neymar showed their best ability in this match

Lorient couldn't do anything, this is a game for PSG attackers to boost their stats. Mbappe already scored two goals and made two assists. Messi finally scored his third goal in the league. Neymar also scored his second in the game and now it's 5-1. Add one more assist to Mbappe. He really want that top goalscorer and top assist awards.
Marseille got another three points but couldn't reach PSG, points difference is still twelve. PSG would announce their next title in four games. It was obvious but they want to make it sure before May.

Exactly these things happened today. Marseille were successful about destroying their opponent, St Etienne by 4-2 in an away game. And they are three points away from Rennes in the standings at the moment. And Strasbourg made use of this huge opportunity very well too. They were able to defeat Lens in a tough game by 1-0 and they now have the fourth position officially. Maybe they have equal points with Nice still but they are better than Nice when it comes to the goal average. I will be wondering how long they will keep it that way as of today.

With today win now most chances Marseille is going to stay at second spot behind PSG and no team can give them tough challenge for this spot but for remaining spots we will have some very exciting matches because now Rennes is going to face Reims which is not good side with this most chances they will also keep this place but Strasbourg and Nice are going to face some tough teams which can bring some changes in league table in next few weeks because now all teams are looking for better ranks even they have unpredictable results.

Strasbourg vs Lyon and Lens vs Nice are the most exciting matches in next week for big changes as Monaco and Lille both trying their best for higher ranks at the end of season.

LOL. After the quick goals from Neymar and Mbappe, I thought that PSG "find their game" at least today and we will see an easy big win. But after 60 minutes the score is already 2-1 and this is a rather slippery advantage. Is it possible that today PSG will again show another painful match with an indistinct result? Given the status of the opponent, this is simply ridiculous.

Nice - Rennes game ended up with a score that was one of my predictions. I was feeling pretty sure about seeing a draw in this game firstly and it happened easily. Nice scored first and Rennes found the equalizer later on. This 1-1 draw didn't change anything for Nice but Rennes have gone up to the second position temporarily. Marseille still haven't played their game this week. And they have a tough game against Montpellier actually but I still wait for Marseille to win this game somehow.

Actually this game will give OM the opportunity to get 3 points difference from Rennes and will help Strasbourg catch Nice.
Otherwise OM game vs St-Etienne was rescheduled tomorrow due to the bad weather and snow.

During the first 30 minutes of the first half PSG were already 2 goals ahead of Neymar and Mbappe and maybe there will be a few more goals scored by PSG considering they have managed to dominate the game well so far.

Today I don't think PSG will make many mistakes where I see they are quite eager to win the match. Messi, Neymar and Mbappe have so far performed very well with a number of chances at their disposal. If possible, I'd like to see Messi increase his goalscoring record in this game so the fans have a lot of respect for him.

The first half is almost over and PSG has scored two goals. Neymar and Mbappe scored. PSG has dominated this match so far and it should be the same story in the second half also. Should be an easy win for PSG as they are facing a team which is struggling to stay away from the relegation zone.

PSG are easily winning this match. But they won't take the competition too seriously anymore. It's more like a practice session for this team. They are so many points ahead that winning or losing doesn't matter much anymore. They will still be very disappointed with the elimination against Real Madrid. It is more important to see if they can keep Messi and Neymar. This type of competition is ideal for trying things out and giving certain players a chance, such as the talent Simons.

Wow, it looks like Bordeaux have a good defense, but somehow it happened after they no longer have any hope of staying in Ligue 1 next season. Lille is fully attacking and also, getting the advantage in player numbers is still not enough for Lille to get full points. It's a shame, because it's a very big chance for Lille to get into the euro zone, playing at home against a team that is bottom of the table and also, against only 10 players from the first half is still not enough to make Lille lucky, it's a shame.

Sounds like bullying Grin

Bordeaux is the absolute record this season for conceded goals - 70 in 30 games, a terrible figure. Rather, Lille was unfortunate than this is the merit of Bordeaux. Although I must say that an early removal very often plays in favor of the team that is defending - they completely stop going to the opponent's half of the field and play in a dead defense. And it gives results. I have not seen the game, but I feel that there was just such a scenario.
