That is the League 1 that has been happening for the past few years, PSG has always won the title and cannot be stopped by any club because they do not have the power like PSG (in terms of money and players), other clubs that performed well at the beginning of the season could not maintain their performance until the end, meaning they were only able to bluff for a moment, which made PSG increasingly show their power in League 1, I am bored to the point of being sick of watching every match in League 1 which is less competitive compared to other popular leagues.

But do we know what will happen in the second half of this season?
I mean, maybe we are currently seeing PSG still dominating league 1, but in the second half of this season everything could change into something terrible for PSG. Do you remember last season?
If you remember, you definitely know how good the competition in league 1 was when other teams tried to approach PSG position and at that time PSG experienced a decline in performance.
Well, now we'll just see how all this goes, because a 7-point difference can still be achieved by other teams when PSG loses its consistency.
Maybe expecting a defeat from PSG is impossible, but a draw several times is also one of the bad results if it happens often.

Because no team in League 1 is able to compete with PSG's strength, they have finances far above average so it is natural that there is no fierce competition for PSG in League 1, maybe other teams just hope PSG makes a lot of mistakes and the rest is nothing.
Now those below PSG in the standings are Mareille and Monaco but these two teams do not have consistency so they are increasingly behind PSG, so it is clear that this season PSG will find it easier to defend the title.

That's why this this board is not so busy because there is not much to discuss and in Ligue 1 only PSG is the only team that is very comfortable dominating the league. Even if PSG makes some mistakes, in the end they will still dominate because the competition for the title is so long. Other teams do not have many opportunities to compete with them because in terms of player quality they are not at all balanced and there are also no clubs there who dare to spend a lot of money to buy players.

The reason is because other teams do not have finances as good as PSG so it is difficult for them to compete. Mareille and Monaco were PSG's closest competitors, but they also struggled to break PSG's dominance at the end of the season, so that in the end PSG came out as champions again.

I'm not saying they can't compete with Paris Saint Germain anymore because their points are now starting to be far apart, but I will say that their chances are now smaller to compete with Paris Saint Germain. because it requires a defeat felt by Paris Saint Germain for them to be able to catch up on their points and even then they have to be able to make sure they don't lose any more points from the matches they play. This is actually what makes Ligue 1 look more boring, because Paris Saint Germain is very superior in the League which makes it difficult for other teams to compete with them.

PSG gave a small chance to other teams to get closer to them, but it didn't last long, and now they are ahead of Marseille and Monaco by 7 points, I think that the whole competition will end here, because PSG will not allow these teams to get closer again. Now Lille, Lyon and maybe Nice will fight for the Champions League zone, and PSG will almost certainly become champions, but in the Champions League their results are much worse.

If you're looking at PSG's performance now, I don't think they are above those teams on points but if you look at how badly they have played in their first few matches, no one would believe that they are in a good position.PSG's next matches are against the same team, from which if PSG loses the match, a lot of points can be lost, which will be very beneficial for these teams. So they need to play hard and play well and beat PSG so that they can establish a good position. PSG's next matches are going to be interesting and if they play well and win the matches, they can move to a good position at the top. Let's see how their next match plays out.

The winning result over Monaco is really important for Marseille because after this result Marseille can taking over runner up place from Monaco besides that this is Marseille second winning at home for this season which finally they can ended their poor results during playing at their home ground but i am not sure Marseille can keep up PSG or not because they have a problem with their consistency besides that Marseille position cannot be say safe because they had same points with Monaco but for next weekend Marseille will playing away at St Etienne home and i think they have good chances to earn 3 points from St Etienne considering this team can be categorized as weak team in Ligue 1

Although it doesn't make a big difference regarding the fight for the title, I think some of the teams will still be involved in the fight for the title of vice champion. I know it is not a real title, but then again we are talking Ligue 1 and this is one of the most boring leagues ever. There is no doubt that PSG will go straight for the title before the season even started, and whoever is interested in those other clubs behind them can now enjoy some good competition. Too bad that no team was able to beat PSG at least once this season so far.

Olympique Marseille is having a bit of a revival for now as they have finished the season 2023/2024 as 8th, which is definitely not what they should be aiming for as they are a club with a solid history. The late penalty against Monaco was a shocker, but they played well and in my opinion deserved to win this game with almost two thirds ball possession and being the more aggressive team.

Monaco and Marseille facing each other, Marseille winning is a great benefit for them, lets see what's going to happen. I also believe that PSG getting a tie at this week isn't really good for them but it doesn't really matter at all, because they are still quite far ahead and that doesn't really believe anything that is getting bigger, should be a much better situation for them but they are still winning the league without much issues at all, it is going to just end.

I hope that we could see what we can make a change about, and because of that I believe that we are going to see much better results with them, and UCL is something they need to focus a lot more on right now, with the way things are going, they are not doing that great at UCL so they need some wins there instead.

Olympique de Marseille football team won the match against Monaco football team and was wonderful match between these two teams. Because both teams have same points on table and have very close position on table. Both team have similar stats . Olympique de Marseille team did 2 goals in this match and opponent team did 1 goal in this match. Golovin was the player who did first goal in this match and he did goal at 41 minutes of the match and after Olympique de Marseille players did effort for the goal and did next goal in this match. Henrique did second goal of the match and he did goal at 53 minutes and after another person did goal but that goal was from Greenwood and he did at 89 minutes at penalty.

The winning result over Monaco is really important for Marseille because after this result Marseille can taking over runner up place from Monaco besides that this is Marseille second winning at home for this season which finally they can ended their poor results during playing at their home ground but i am not sure Marseille can keep up PSG or not because they have a problem with their consistency besides that Marseille position cannot be say safe because they had same points with Monaco but for next weekend Marseille will playing away at St Etienne home and i think they have good chances to earn 3 points from St Etienne considering this team can be categorized as weak team in Ligue 1

There is no realistic chance for any other team to compete with PSG. They are winning most of their games and it would probably need another team to get close to 90 points at least. But which team could be able to do that?

I think two years ago one other team had like 84 points and it was by far not enough to beat PSG. There is too much money involved and almost impossible to beat PSG since in this case the money wins the games as Ligue 1 is not very competitive otherwise.

It is clear that no team can compete with Paris Saint Germain. Ligue 1 is not that difficult for PSG but it is very difficult for other teams to be able to compete with PSG. after this season has gone almost half the season PSG has won a lot of matches so which team will be able to collect 90 points in the remaining matches of this season, I think it will not be any. This year's championship title will return to PSG with large funds and it will run smoothly even though they are currently having difficulties in the Champions League, why is that so in the Champions League, all the teams competing have lots of star players so it is very different from the French Ligue 1.

PSG will continue to remain the strongest team in the French Ligue as long as no other team is ready to spend more money to buy quality players to strengthen their squad like PSG. It is clear that the league trophy will continue to remain PSG's, as they will keep winning it as long as they don’t have serious competitors. When the season started, based on the way Monaco was playing, I thought they might become PSG's serious competition. However, recently, I can't say so. I don’t see any signs of them winning this season’s ongoing Ligue 1 competition.

As for PSG's poor performances in the Champions League, it may be due to the coaching. In my opinion, PSG should have won the Champions League with the set of quality players they had in past seasons. With Mbappe Neymar, and even later on Messi, they had enough quality attacking players. A better coach should have been able to win the Champions League with that lineup.

It seems in PSG there is not a good relationship between Donnarumma and their coach Enrique because they didn't use this goalkeeper in many games and he was not in the first squad in PSG. Since Donnarumma is the first goalkeeper in Italy's national team this is important for him to be in a team where he can play more than other teams. That's why Donnarumma is thinking about leaving PSG at the end of the season.
Enrique is using his Russian goalkeeper Matvei Safonov, instead of Donnarumma.
It seems even if Donnarumma leaves PSG there is a higher chance for him to return Serie A again.
He joined PSG back in 2021 with Messi.

I don't think so. I believe Luis Enrique is a good coach, and I highly doubt if there is any rift between him and his first choice goalkeeper Donnarumma. The reason why he might not be playing or included in the first team squad may be due to factors such as injury or lack of match fitness. I don’t believe the rumours about him wanting to leave the club. it's important to focus on facts rather than unverified reports. He has shown commitment to the club in the past and such rumors usually surface when players are facing temporarily challenges. If there were serious issues it will be likely be addressed transparently by the player or club.

In the month of November, Gianlugi Donnarumma was benched in three games which includes Paris Saint Germaine's 1:0 draw against Bayern Munich. The Italy national team first-choice goalkeeper isn't injured like you suggested but it's because the coach decided to use his other options in the goalkeeping department. There's a report that he might move to Inter Milan in January or next summer if his place as PSG's first-choice goalkeeper isn't guaranteed.

Well, indeed, although currently in Ligue 1 there are 2 clubs that are quite developed, namely Marseille and Monaco, but it seems that PSG is not bothered by their success. PSG is still the top club in that league and remains at the first standing. It is undeniable, although sometimes PSG is not optimal enough, however, they still managed to get a victory and a bigger point, so that the first position in Ligue 1 remains with PSG and cannot be replaced. Marseille and Monaco still can't reach PSG quickly or replace their position at the top standing, they still can't. but we can't deny, once again, if the two teams are struggling much better.

With how PSG doing right now, I would say they can play with just U21 for a few weeks and they can still be getting the title win, which is the best thing for a club in UCL because if you are leading by this many points at league, that should give you more than what you need, and that will definitely allow you a bit of resting as well.

If players end up resting, that would be a lot better and we could definitely consider how to get better results without a doubt, I believe that will be the most important part. I can see how things could be a bit different, I can see how we could see where this could lead them to, but it doesn't matter where we can end up with at the end of the day, we still need to wait and see how PSG will do.

You may be right. PSG right now are enjoying good run of form in their domestic league this season but have failed to replicate such a form in the UEFA Champions League this season. Inasmuch as they are dominating their league they should also think of the champions league too, as winning the Champions League will make them to be amongs the elite clubs in European competition. They are currently ranked below the qualifying teams in the Champions League this season and I don't think they can qualify, but if they do I am sure they will not make it to the quarter finals.

It's not about PSG may or may not get defeat time to time, it's the fact that nobody else could get as many points as PSG, we know that PSG may lose some games, but we also know that other teams will lose even more, and that's the problem.

The only teams that looked decent since start of the season has been Marseille and Monaco, and look how far they are right now, hence we shouldn't really consider PSG doing that great, because PSG isn't doing that great, it's not about them at all, it's not about how many games PSG wins or loses, it's about the fact that there is no competition and the other teams in the league can't do good. That means the league is competitive aside from PSG, because everyone can beat each other, but also it means that we are not seeing another team who can dominate the league, we are not seeing Monaco beating everyone or Marseille, we are seeing everyone being pretty similar to each other, and that causes PSG to stand alone at the top.

Many expect the competition for struggle the Ligue 1 trophy to increase, so we don't just see PSG as the only favorite candidate every season. Marseille and AS Monaco are currently 7 points behind PSG, they certainly still have the opportunity to reduce the points gap with PSG in the next 21 matches. Both teams can take advantage of PSG priority scale for the Champions League, and hope that Enrique squad will spend more energy there, allowing Marseille and AS Monaco to return to the path of winning the trophy. Ligue 1 will be boring if it continues to be dominated by only one team, and in fact that is what has happened so far. The competition for the European zone position, especially the Champions League, is indeed more interesting, and it is likely that Marseille will be able to finish in the runner-up position this season.

PSG's dominance in the League1 has actually made the league boring for long, people don't usually watch their games like they used to concentrate in the other top leagues just because they know that it is only PSG that will win the title. Even this season that PSG is playing without Mbappe, they are still dominating the League which simply means that other teams in League1 are not competent, they are only fighting the Champions League spot, and they don't usually do well.

I was expecting a different performance in the League1 this season because Monaco started the season very well, but as they lose form, they have dropped some points nd are now not too serious to compete for the title unless if they recover soon.

Saying PSG allowed other teams a chance to come up the table awhile did sounded funny (lol) this is because no team will literally do such consciously it would only be the usual football circumstances that usually does happen as it always rare for any team to win all of their games all through the season without having a drw or loss, it's usually possible to stay unbeaten but not without a draw, so PSG didn't give that chance literally but probably technically. And may not do it again like you stated and that will be if they don't get to faced by normal football circumstances that may cost them some games sometimes.

Supposedly, because PSG is still a team that dominates Ligue 1, it is time for PSG to maximize its performance in the Champion League. I personally might feel strange, because PSG should still be able to get good results when rotating players, because with the rotation of players carried out it might make PSG get good results also in the Champion League. But yes, the reality is that when PSG rotates for matches in Ligue 1, the reality is that PSG is still unable to win. Even worse, although PSG still plays its main squad in Ligue 1, but the fact is that PSG also quite often fails to get good results with clean sheets. Thus, basically PSG is still weak but unfortunately, the teams in Ligue 1 are not really successful in providing a threat or better competition in the race for the Ligue 1 trophy.

There is still a chance for other teams to catch up on the points difference because the remaining matches are still very long. Although it seems impossible, this is football that cannot be predicted whether PSG can experience consecutive defeats this season.
And if this season PSG again dominates the league 1 title, it certainly won't be interesting to see the competition in this competition.
Maybe we will only be interested in the competition for the position to get a UCL ticket and I think this time Marseille and Monaco will compete to get the runner up position.
