For the first time after many years, Lyon got a terrible result against Rennes away in the Ligue 1. Actually they had the same points before this match. But it was very disappointing to see Lyon playing this bad. Rennes played one of their best matches recently and dominated the match too. They got a win by 4-1 which must be very satisfying for them. Lyon should be able to make up for this embarrassing loss.
Lyon had a bad defence in this match, and that contributed mainly to them conceding 4 goals.  However, it was a home match for Rennes and I never expected them to lose. They probably put up an impressive performance in the match. The ball possession was quite balanced, but Rennes had a total of 12 shot on target. Also, I noticed that Rennes didn't lost in any of their last 5 matches in Ligue 1, and are presently at the 5th position on the standings. While Lyon next match is against Marseille, which will be tough for them. Although, if they are well prepared, and also work on their defense, they xan end up winning the match.

Yeah, 12 out of 25 shots on target vs 4 out of 6 shots on target. There is a big difference here. Rennes played very strongly in this one and they must be contented now. But their next match is going to be against Montpellier. Although it is a home match for Rennes, they could struggle this time as Montpellier have a similar form to them. There is a three point gap between them too. Maybe they still destroyed Lyon with a similar scenario but they mustn't overcome by languor this time too.

It was another comfortable week for PSG as they consolidated their position by defeating Bordeaux by 3-2 away. And most of their closest opponents lost points last week. I mean Marseille and Nice of course. Both of them surprised me by getting very poor results. By the way, Lens are still doing great and they are at the 2nd place after winning against Troyes by 4-1. They are the most remarkable team of this season I think. Maybe they won't be able to get very close to PSG because of their huge performance. But they still can end the season at the 2nd place which could be beyond their expectations for this season.
PSG is a very great club, they are also able to bring in Messi, but as far as I can see Messi is not happy at PSG, and Messi is not treated well at PSG, now Messi's close relatives have returned to Barcelona to become a coach, my question is maybe will messi go back to barcelona, ​​and help their colleagues there..

I don't think Messi is not happy with PSG. I think he is not happy in France. I have seen in a number of PSG matches, as long as they play away matches, the opponents' supporters do not get along well with Messi. They scolded, threw bottles. These behaviour are very unexpected. I don't think Messi will return to Barcelona. Now Barcelona is not able to carry Messi's wages.

I too don’t see Messi returning in this season or next season unless Xavi sells few player’s and PSG allow him to leave for free, but both scenarios look very difficult to happen. Lastly Messi will require some more time to settle, and when he does he’ll prove why PSG was right to sign him, but till then the fans need to support him.

I think now PSG have players who have a winning mentality and even many of them are very experienced in the champions league, but from the few matches played by PSG, we can see if it looks like they are very difficult to win and even they are only able to get results draws against clubs like brugge and leipzig, I'm also starting to think if PSG current weakness seems to have been with their coach, with so many star players in the current PSG squad, of course it would be a shame if they failed to win the champions league title for the first time this season.
With the players that PSG have, there should be no reason to fail to win the Champions League trophy. But so far PSG's performance has
been inconsistent in the Champions League, PSG drew with Club Brugge and Leipzig, which should both teams be defeated easily by PSG.
But I'm still optimistic that PSG can qualify for the next round. The problem is whether PSG can win the Champions League trophy.
If we look at PSG's performance so far in the Champions League, I doubt that PSG can win the Champions League trophy.

I saw that Pochettino had difficulty managing the star players at PSG, therefore PSG's game was not systematic. Many PSG players rely too much
on individual skills and forget teamwork. Unlike when Pochettino became Tottenham coach, Tottenham's game looks more systematic and
teamwork looks very solid. Pochettino must be able to act decisively against PSG players, otherwise it is very difficult to expect PSG players to show
solid teamwork. I suggest PSG management sack Pochettino if this season PSG still fail to win the Champions League trophy, because PSG have
a squad that really deserves to be champions in all competitions.
Pochettino is a pretty good coach, but I think he still lacks experience in coaching a big team like PSG today, and I see that his lack of tactics makes it difficult for Pochettino to form a perfect PSG game with enough quality player material that is quite abundant as it is today, besides that it looks like Pochettino Can't force his strikers like he did at Tottenham before, because of course he will get in a lot of problems if he forces players like Messi, Neymar and also Mappe to follow his wish.
That's why we don't find the same style of play he used to play at Tottenham.


You're right Mauricio Pochettino has not experienced handling a big team with many star players like PSG, we can see his coaching career since 2009
until now, PSG is the first big team held by Pochettino. So Pochettino has difficulty managing the many star players at PSG, not surprisingly the way
PSG play is different from what Pochettino showed when he was coach of Tottenham. It looks like PSG have to be patient if they want to win a lot of
trophies, because it seems Pochettino has not been able to adapt, he is still looking for the best formula for how to make the star players at PSG
play compact. But the problem is PSG's management is very ambitious to get the Champions League trophy this season, that's why PSG's
management dared to spend a large budget to bring in many star players. But the PSG management forgot that they wanted to win the Champions
League trophy as soon as possible, should not attract inexperienced coaches, PSG should look for coaches who are already experienced in
the Champions League.

PSG has star-studded players, and has world-class players, of course the price of players can be said to be fantastic, mbape, dimaria, neymar, messi, they are all great players, if psg can't lift the league trophy, it's definitely psg very humiliated by another team, psg's target is to bring in messi, to be able to lift the champions league trophy..

lens could have ended the season in 2nd place, and could get a ticket to the champions league, as long as they can stay consistent until the end of the season, this season psg has played very well, psg has only lost once, according to my prediction, it can it's confirmed that psg will lift the league cup this season, they have star-studded players, so it's only natural that they can become champions this season..

Both team equal in quality and have same issues both were very good in last season but currently struggling specially Lille are very poor in League even having some better record in Champions League but very badly struggling in French League on other side Monaco is some better as their current home record is good if they are able to win this match then surely they are going more high with good confidence they are top in their Europa League group but still need some good performance for qualifying into next round but having some better spot in French League need very good work because their current rank and form both have nothing good for having good spot for this year's end.
Monaco and Lille are both good teams. But at the moment they are fighting to get back to form. Their position is now 11th and 12th in the points table. Lille was at the top of the points table the previous season and Monaco was the third team. So this match is very important for both the teams now. The team that wins will have no chance of making it to the top 5 of the points table, I don't think the losing team will improve this season.

Next week, the most exciting game could be Monaco vs Lille. Lille are the last champions in the Ligue 1. And Monaco finished the last season being the 3rd. But now, we have a completely different scenario. Both of them have been having a terrible season so far. Monaco are the 11th and Lille are following them right behind. And both of them have a bad run lately too. I feel closer to seeing a draw here and both teams should be able to score.
Both of the clubs performance this season haven't been impressive. Lille performance last season was awesome, and they ended up winning the Ligue 1 title. While Lille have lost 5 matches so far and presently have 16 points. Winning against Monaco will really be tough for them. Their last meeting ended in goalless draw, and their next meeting is likely to end draw too. But, don't be surprise if Monaco wins with a goal difference, because is probably their home match.

Well, that's what I hope with the current PSG squad at least PSG should get the UCL title too, but so far it seems like something impossible. Basically the chemistry between the players I believe has already formed in the PSG squad, because even though Messi is a new player at PSG, in fact Messi is already familiar with Neymar and Di Maria as well. With already established chemistry and great individual skills, the coach should be able to take advantage of it. I can't imagine if Tuchel is still at PSG, I'm sure PSG is now very visible to be a strong candidate to win the UCL, but in the current Pochettino era PSG can't be seen as scary for other teams.
I wouldn't say it is impossible, but I also do not think that it is fair to expect them to win it as well. I get that they have a great roster, specially the trio of messi-neymar-mbappe is at a level that no other team has, it is probably the best trio I can remember in a long time since (once again lol) neymar-messi-suarez back in Barcelona few years ago, that was a great trio as well. Long story short they are good and they should do good but expect them to win the most important cup in world of football is a tough challenge.

This is their first ever season together as well, and they need to get used to playing with each other while most of the time one or the other is injured or tired and rests a game. If they stay together for another year, next year I would have more expectations but right now I can't say that I am really expecting them to win something. Of course they should win the league, but UCL is a whole different ball game.

What a great week it was for PSG! Firstly, they played against Bordeaux away and defeated them by 3-2. They brought the score to 3-0 first and Bordeaux scored two consecutive goals in the last fifteen minutes of the game. But the second one came too late that they didn't have much time to even equalize the score. One day later, Nice and Marseille played their games. Nice lost to Montpellier home by 1-0 and Marseille - Metz game ended in a goalless draw. Maybe Lens won their game and captured the second place. But even between them and PSG, there is a 10-point gap which is not easy to close.

Yes, you're right, the truth is about time, because PSG has made me lose some money, something similar with Man United in the English league, however I think everything at PSG is focused on Messi, Neymar and Mbappé, Certainly Mbappé is the one who now leads the team, when Messi arrived everyone expected to see the Argentine leadership, but I think he must be going through a difficult time, he has not meshed well with them on the court, sometimes I see Neymar, Mbappe and Messi each running looking for their own game and not doing it collectively, I think they should put fame aside and give themselves more to the team, even though they won it didn't suit me much.

The main purpose of bringing in Neymar, Mappe and Messi was actually to be able to win the champions league trophy for the first time for PSG, so far we know that PSG continues to fail in the Champions League, and that forcing them to continue to bring star players into their squad, and  so better We'll just have to wait and see if this season they can get a big ears trophy this season or do they fail again?
 I think if PSG just wanted to be the rulers of French football, surely they wouldn't have spent a lot of money on signing star players in recent years, because since 2013 they have dominated Ligue 1 until now.

We have left another weekend behind and PSG are still going on at the top very comfortably. And they will win the league title without having much problem at the end also most probably. They didn't have a big difficulty against Bordeaux last week actually even the result was 3-2. Because PSG made it 3-0 already and Bordeaux's effort to turn the game around wasn't enough. And most of PSG's rivals lost points on the same weekend too.
Yes, actually PSG are quite comfortable and PSG can make a good focus too in the UCL. They need to get some titles this season, considering their current squad is very supportive of it all for a success or achievement to get some trophies. If PSG only get the Ligue 1 title this season then I think the problem will be with their coach. Because of how it is, the coach cannot utilize his skills and some great strategies to achieve victory in his every game with a great squad.
I think now PSG have players who have a winning mentality and even many of them are very experienced in the champions league, but from the few matches played by PSG, we can see if it looks like they are very difficult to win and even they are only able to get results draws against clubs like brugge and leipzig, I'm also starting to think if PSG current weakness seems to have been with their coach, with so many star players in the current PSG squad, of course it would be a shame if they failed to win the champions league title for the first time this season.

Neymar scored again after so long his goal tap stopped. While at other times Messi has not scored in the few games he has played, but he did manage to do so for the Champions League. PSG can shift their temporary focus to the Champions League, but they can't miss a good moment to stay top of the table by a large point difference.

The Champions League is very competitive, there are several Premier League and Bundesliga team that can currently prevent PSG from going any further into the next stage. But because the players that PSG currently have can support, then there's nothing wrong with hoping they can get to the final.
