I would like to say that PSG got a surprising result against Lorient last night by 1-1. But the truth is that PSG are performing much worse in the absence of Mbappe. Messi played in this game but he couldn't score or make an assist. He was like a ghost to me because of this. PSG are highly depending on Mbappe now and this is really worrying considering the future of the club. Because they are most likely to lose Mbappe in next summer. After that, they will need to get accustomed to being successful without him also.

Messi isnt playing good at all since arriving at PSG and those big salaries dont pay off for him at all. PSG again loses points against really weak teams such as Lorient. The good thing for PSG is that they have a big lead and that no one can catch them at all

It seems that Messi is still having trouble adapting at PSG, Messi still hasn't been able to show his best performance. For now PSG is very
dependent on Mbappe, if Mbappe doesn't play it looks like PSG has a lot of difficulty scoring goals. Everyone was very surprised by the result of
the Lorient vs PSG match, we all know Lorient are in the relegation zone, meaning that PSG with many star players should be easy to beat
Lorient. Even my prediction PSG will win the game with a big score, but in fact PSG struggled against Lorient and the match ended in a draw.
PSG almost lost if Mauro Icardi didn't score in the last minute of the match, PSG players also looked frustrated against Lorient until Sergio Ramos
got a red card. If I look at PSG's performance like this, I doubt PSG can win the Champions League trophy this season, but to become Ligue 1
champion it is still likely to be easily obtained.

It's not the first time PSG have played poorly as favourites! They lack teamwork... That's why they have very poor execution of good chances... To recruit superstars into the team is certainly very good, but the coach must still be able to make the game work, which has not yet been done!

It's not always a team with many star players who are easy to win matches, depending on how the team plays. PSG players are too selfish, it is very
visible that players rely too much on their individual skills to play. Though the game of football requires good cooperation between players to be able
to win the game. I agree with you, this is all the fault of the coach who cannot make players play with the system, so that there is solid teamwork.
I see Mauricio Pochettino can't do his job well, it looks like Pochettino has difficulty controlling the many star players at PSG. Maybe because Pochettino
had never previously coached a big team with many star players, so he had a bit of trouble managing the star players at PSG. If Pochettino can't control
the star players at PSG, seems to be repeating itself where PSG will get poor results in the next few matches.

I'm not sure the French league or Ligue 1 is a weak league, because if the teams in Ligue 1 were weak teams then we'll get where Messi is now easy to score. But the fact is the opposite and Messi admits Ligue 1 teams are strong teams with high power gameplay, the teams in Ligue 1 are still strong teams and strong leagues too. There will always be strong teams and weak teams in every league, so I can't assume that this is a weak league although indeed, if we talk about Ligue 1 at least it's only about one PSG team. But the reality is not so, because the proof is that PSG itself is still difficult to get points even though the opponent they are facing is a team that is in the relegation zone.

I definitely think it is 100% a weak league. France as a nation has a huge economy compared to most other nations, maybe French people could be unhappy with their current situation but let's face it, there are maybe like 10 nations in the world with better economy than them, and most of them do not have proper football fans. So in a nation with a good economy and a lot of football fans, teams made a lot of money, plus with ownership that is filthy rich, it allowed PSG to be a great team in France.

However, put these teams all against EPL or La liga and you will see how bad they are, apparent from only PSG being really successful and even they haven't won UCL for so long. I would say Messi not being able to score is mainly due to him playing with the same team for 20+ years and now suddenly in a different team with a different tactic, not because the defense is good, PSG still keeps scoring bunch of goals anyway.

PSG have such a strong team that they usually win even bad games. Or at least don't lose. It must be said that Lille (I thought) recently became champion of France, that was a sensation. The question is more this season with how many points they will become champions. Individually, no team even comes close to PSG. It will be time for them to win the Champions League too, becoming champions in League 1 is no challenge.

In my opinion, PSG is almost certain to win Ligue 1. There are still 19 games to go and PSG have collected 46 points.

Nice and Marseille, who are ranked 2nd and 3rd, have collected 33 points. I was a bit surprised to see the result of the Lorient Vs PSG match which ended in a draw.

PSG's next match in Ligue 1 will be against Lyon.

PSG is 13 points ahead of the second team in the table. PSG's title win is almost certain. If Nice or Marseille want to win the title then they have to win all the upcoming matches and at the same time PSG have to lose 4/5 matches. Which seems almost impossible to me now. The PSG team is stable enough now. Even if they lose points in 2/1 matches, they will undoubtedly win the title.

Probably they will have 88+ points at the end of this season and the point difference could be 10+ with their closest competitor. PSG is the only favourite team Ligue 1 of this season and they will be the champion for sure. But no one can surely tell you that how far PSG will be able to reach in UCL. PSG going to sell 7 players in the upcoming transfer window, I have seen few many news and articles about this. Player transfer is a normal thing, but it will be bad if they sell any of their top players.

Still, we may have some more objective idea of the strength of the league than the opinion of a football player. I think if we consider the results of French teams in European competition (excluding PSG), then we can say that the French championship is closer to the Portuguese championship than to the top-4.

fortunately they still have icardi there, but on the other hand I hope their performance will continue like this in the domestic league because their points are too high to be chased and make the competition not too exciting.
3 draws and 2 wins in the last 5 matches is still pretty good actually, but I expect them to lose Cheesy

On the other hand, I highlight the game of Ramos which is still fierce even though it is old Cheesy

PSG performance in the match against lorient was very unconvincing, even though they fielded their best squad in the match, but instead they conceded a goal first in the 40th minute, when the match continued I personally hope PSG will get a defeat and just like you, maybe will It is more exciting if Ligue PSG and rival clubs have a very small difference in points in the standings, compared to now PSG have run quite far and impossible to be overtaken by another team.

Ramos is one of the best central defenders ever, even though he is quite old now but he cannot be underestimated by other players, unfortunately in that match Ramos again got his first red card in ligue 1 and it became his 27th red card in all competitions in his football career

In the French league, what surprises me most is Lyon's very weak position. Last year, Rudy Garcia was sacked for fourth place, now Olympique may just be left without a place in Eurocups next season. Was the transfer of Memphis Depay such a heavy damage for them?

Having a lot of star players in the squad will certainly not guarantee a team can always win games, in my opinion the current PSG squad is the best squad ever in football, but of course it will be a difficult job for the coach to be able to unite them in one In the rhythm of the game, I often see PSG star players are often selfish with themselves and end up ruining their game so that it becomes difficult for them to get points in the game.

If PSG has a worthy rival in Ligue 1, as it was not so long ago with Monaco, then PSG simply buys the top players of the team (for example Mbappe) and the team ceases to be their competitor in the fight for the championship. Ligue 1 is a good league and cannot be called weak, at least teams like Lyon and Monaco show decent results in Eurocups, and this is a very solid indicator. PSG is a toy in the hands of the rich, so it's hard to compare them with other clubs Ligue 1.

When we talk about the French championship (and especially about playing at the top club - PSG), even taking into account age, we must expect different results. Let me remind you that Ibrahimovic came to PSG in adulthood and left at 35. At the same time, in 4 seasons he played 180 games and scored 156 goals.

I don't think this example says as much about the French league as it does about Ibrahimovic. It's absolutely incredible what he's doing, he's now 40, and scoring lots of goals at the highest level in Italy.
The French league may be weaker than other top leagues, but Ibrahimovic even now can walk into any league and take it by storm.

Everyone thinks Ligue 1 teams are weak because there are very few star players here compared to other leagues. However, despite the low number of star players, the performance of the Ligue 1 teams is to be commended. Their match strategy is good. They are playing well with a relatively weak team. If they had a strong squad they could challenge any team in the Premier League.

PSG shared points with a weaker team like Lorient yesterday. This may not be an obstacle for them to win the title, but they should have scored 3 points in this match. Lorient is a very weak team. The main reason PSG did not perform well yesterday is that they do not have a stable match strategy. They often change tactics in the match, at the same time changing the formation. They should play in one certain formation. There need to be specific strategies. Otherwise the performance will not be continuous. He will not be able to perform as expected in the Champions League.

Before Pochetino came to Paris Saint Germain other coaches have been doing well, dominating the league,other coaches have been winning with ease even if they lose game it will be against a big side like Monaco, Lyon, Marseille or Lille and it's rarely an home defects but since Pochetino came the have been dropping points from team that they are suppose to destroyed and they play unattractive football even if he has the best squad in football history.i don't think he is big enough coach to be in paris.even his predecessor is doing more better than him in his new club

Damn, it was so close. Still, the absence of Mbappe and Neymar influenced the result. Messi continues not to score goals and keeps worsening his statistics - I wonder if this will ever end? It seems to me that this state of affairs is already a serious burden on the psyche of Messi, who is used to scoring a lot and being in full view of everyone.

Messi and Ronaldo have issues with ageing and I don't think they can solve their issues completely. At their ages now, they will have more ups and downs in their performance and they will not be able to score so many goals, in so many matches like what we saw five seasons ago.

Now, they are players of moments and we should enjoy any fantastic moment they have for us. We won't see so many moments like that because they are moving to end of their career.

When we talk about the French championship (and especially about playing at the top club - PSG), even taking into account age, we must expect different results. Let me remind you that Ibrahimovic came to PSG in adulthood and left at 35. At the same time, in 4 seasons he played 180 games and scored 156 goals. Messi scores well in the Champions League, but it is hard to deny that he has clear problems in the French Championship.
