As Messi is officially a PSG player now, I wonder whether he will be able to adapt to the team quickly. If he doesn't have any problem with playing with Mbappe side by side, then there will be no coherence problem. He has already played with Neymar at Barcelona so I haven't even mentioned him.

Messi is joining a PSG Galactico team, adaptation is less of his problem. Messi will be playing alongside Mbappe, Neymar, Verrati, Gini, Di Maria, Icardi, Ramos. A team full of professionals

The onus now is on the coach to get the best out of the squad. Champions league or nothing

Winning the title depends entirely on the coach now. Mauricio Pochettino is an experienced coach. Now his main responsibility is to build a stable team of all talented players. If there is internal strife in the team, no matter how many star players there are in the team, the result will not be good. The team is experienced, there is nothing to teach them. The coach's responsibility is to resolve internal disputes and fix match strategy.

They will have a dream team, but will they be able to play together well ? And to be motivated enough ? Last year it seems they didn't want to win enough.

There shouldn't not br an issue with playing together if you ask me, Messi is use to playing along side numerous star infested squad club and country side, He's just going to be himself and he's selfless imo so there wouldn't be much of an issue, although I'd expect a bit when it comes to the responsibility of each players on the pitch, in terms of taking free kicks and penalties, I guess that might cause quite an headache for the coach, if he's going to have to be the one to make the decision.

Mess is said to be taking the Jersey number 30, seems weird but it's quite unique since he doesn't have to strip any current player of their's.

Messi transfer is such an important event that everyone in the world is talking about this right now. Barcelona fans are just devastated by this news. In the meantime, PSG fans are going crazy for Messi. Grin

They even wanted to welcome him at the airport a few days ago because they were expecting Messi to come then. But it was a false alarm. Cheesy

Messi and Neymar have a strong connection that dates way back, Neymar and Mbappe have already grown a bond both on and off the pitch; I personally see no reason why the trio would not have a perfect blend together, also considering they Messi plays alongside a couple of the other players at PSG for the national team.

If I have any doubts about the squad, it would be on the manager. Pichetinno night find it a bit difficult dealing with the players as I don't think he has ever coached a team with this much talent. How to bring out the best of the team would be the biggest hurdle.

The gameplay of Marseille's players fascinated me. Montpellier was leading 2-0 at the end of the first half. I never thought Marseille would come back so well in the second half. They scored 3 goals in the second half and won the match. Dimitri Payet's goals in the 75th and 80th minutes gave Marseille the lead. At the end they got 3 points.

Honestly it was as much of marsielle playing very well but also at the same time montpellier playing horrible as well. When you look at the goals, I understand that a freekick goal could be scored at all times and that is understandable, but when you look at the first goal, where was defense up until the ball got to Under? I mean goalkeeper and defenders should have stopped that ball getting to him, which was a bad effort, I am not even talking about the last goal, that is just humiliating for the whole defense and midfield, dude basically scored in spite of everyone around him, someone had to get the ball from him and he scored in such a crowded place.

Still congratz to Marsielle, they played very well too, and they showed that this year they are a bit of a different mindset of a team, they are going to really push for it for sure.

PSG also started the season with a nice win against Troyes with a 2-1 score. They managed to win this game even though the manager rested many players including Neymar also. And as they have gotten the good news about Messi, it will boost their morale as well.

PSG will take the 1st title in the league this season. The previous season they focused more on the champions league's trophy, so they lost some important matches in Ligue 1 and lost the title. They won’t make the same mistake again this season. Moreover, they have become stronger with Messi and Ramos in the team. It will be difficult for any strong team to win against them now.

Psg could have won the league without Ramos and Messi. It's just that the players are not interested in playing at full strength against teams weaker than them. And they gave all their strength to the Champions League. Messi and Ramos will be able to breathe new motivation into the team.

Now that it is pretty much certain that Messi will go to PSG, what team of the French league do you guys think could even get close to threaten PSG? The only thing that can stop PSG then is injuries. I can't think of anything else that might seriously threaten them to not win the title. Neymar, Mbappe and Messi is probably even stronger than Neymar, Suarez and Messi.

The deadly trio currently owned by PSG is not impossible, they will be able to easily grab the league 1 title this season, especially since PSG in the last few seasons have always had a qualified squad to compete in the French league, especially with the arrival of Lionel Messi to a club based in France. the French capital is not impossible for them to win the title this season, but we also cannot underestimate there are some dark horse teams who will keep PSG's steps to win this phenomenal season, for example like Marseille, Lyon, and also Last season's reigning champions were Lille

On the first week of the new season, the most enjoyable game was Montpellier - Marseille to me. What a comeback it was from Marseille! When Montpellier made the score 2-0, I thought that they would win the game. But Marseille didn't give up and managed to turn the game around. Payet scored 2 goals and Cengiz Under scored one.

I'm looking at the defending champions Lille still retaining the title. Contrary to public opinion, I don't think Paris Saint-Germain can take back the crown irrespective of their new sign-in. Truth be told PSG has a lot of star players like, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, Georginio Wijnaldum, Sergio Ramos, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Angel di Maria. Yet, it has been said that a team full of stars doesn't actually make them champions. It takes more than that. On the other hand, although, Lille lost their goalkeeper Mike Maignan to AC Milan, they are still my best bet to win the league.

Let's not forget that PSG last season did not become the champion of the previous version of the squad. Of course, there are different cases and the known favorites with a stellar composition sometimes do not win, but still it seems that the chances of Paris Saint-Germain for the championship have increased compared to last year. Of course, any new team composition requires a certain teamwork and time, but I don't think that this will be a huge problem for PSG's star newcomers. I have another reasonable question about this, whether Mauricio Pochettino will be able to cope with so many stars, effectively manage them and build a successful team game.

By the way, Metz - Lille game was also very exciting. Lille barely managed to get one point. Burak Yilmaz saved the team by scoring in the last minute.

First games are not really that important because teams are just getting used to things. Neymar didn't play neither, and Messi is moving to PSG as well so he wasn't around, goalkeeper was still Navas, Ramos was nowhere to be found. Basically we are going to see a whole different PSG in a few weeks for sure, I don't know everyone's excuse but they will eventually play. When that happens we are going to actually see something insane, it is going to be unreal.

I do not remember a team that was as built amazingly as PSG in the recent years, this team is filled with superstars in every position and they will definitely win the league with ease, and I mean like with quite ease, probably at least 10+ points to the second, argument could be made for 15 and more but usually teams give up after that much difference and start losing games so I think 10+ is more realistic.

The first week matches have been completed. Paris SG got 3 points in the first week matches, while Lille saved the draw in the last minutes. Marseille, Angers, Clermont were other victorious teams. 4 matches ended with win-loss. All remaining matches ended in draws. It's been an interesting week.

My candidate for the championship this year is Paris SG.

PSG managed to score 3 points from the first match. But the top teams in the points table of the previous season, Lille, Lens and Lyon shared points in their matches. The first match, so maybe they did not perform as expected. Hopefully we can see their old form in the second week matches.

The PSG team is very strong this season. Their goal is to win the Champions League, with the title of Ligue 1.

Yes you are right. Paris SG built a really, really strong squad this season. If Lionel Messi is added to this, no one can prevent Paris SG. They become the biggest candidates for the championship in all their tournaments. A team with Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Messi in the offensive zone does not lose easily. As the goalkeeper, there is Donnarumma, the most valuable player of the Euro 2020 tournament. One of the biggest contenders to win for League 1 and UCL is Paris SG.
