I think they could have won the first year they had Messi, Neymar and Mbappe, but it didn't happen. Later, those who gradually left the team became very weak. They seem to be weaker after Mbappe's departure, but you never know, this situation may suddenly be reversed with good transfers. They reached the semi-finals of the UCL last year, and maybe if they are lucky, they can become champions in a few years. I would be very surprised if this happens, but anything is possible in football.
Its not upto a season since mbappe left the team and they have not played a single game after his exit either because a new season is yet to set in after the exit of mbappe so I don't know how you got to measure the strength of the others who you have classified to be weak after mbappe's exit from the team, meanwhile I was thinking that the team is more focused on making up for the space created by the exit of mbappe before the new season dawn's upon them. When PSG had Messi, Neymar and mbappe, they didn't have a perfect team play rhythm and that denied them of the champions league trophy that season.

If PSG follows Manchester City's style, it is possible that PSG will become a tough team for its opponents in all competitions. I would start with Poche when he managed PSG, but they failed in the UCL. coach after that, apart from his first time managing a team as elite as Paris Saint-Germain, he experienced a difficult phase in becoming a respected figure in the dressing room. Simply put, if Galtier is able to become a respected figure and can settle the egos of his star players, of course we rarely hear news reporting that PSG players often clash.
on the other hand, I assume that previous coaches are rarely involved when PSG recruits newcomers. That's why this team has deficiencies in several lines, especially attacking midfielders and several defensive players. Likewise with Enrique at the start of his season with PSG, I don't know which player he really designated as a necessity for his squad. Well, in this summer's transfer window Enrique must be involved in bringing in the players he is targeting and at the same time what the team needs.
Talking about Monaco, last season they often underperformed even though they often won narrowly. Well, I doubt that AS Manaco can compete closely with Paris Saint-Germain. At least, for now it is not easy for PSG's competitor teams to compete closely and break their dominance. Honestly, I don't underestimate Monaco. Unfortunately, for me personally they do not yet meet the criteria for strong candidates in the Ligue 1 competition.

The condition of the league is always fluctuating, maybe for Europe UCl can be the standard of the team's ability. But PSG I think is quite good, they have reached the semi-finals. This condition is also not always true, Ligue 1 is the weakest league. The draw in the UCL is also unpredictable, so the team that is in the UCL is the best team in my opinion.
Talk about the other is the attraction of the league. After Mbappe officially leaves, maybe Ligue 1 will decline for the audience. Because this season and before Mbappe and Neymar are the magnets. For next season, it looks like they will have to rebuild to make the league more interesting to watch.

I think the same. The Ligue 1 is the most boring one to watch to me as well among top European leagues. I have been watching PSG's games for the sake of Mbappe but now he has also left so...
Some people say Mbappe's departure won't affect this league much but I don't agree with that. Mbappe has been like the face of this league. I bet there are so many people watching the league just to see him. Because normally teams in this league don't have many interesting players unlike the Premier League, Bundesliga or other top leagues.
The Ligue 1 can't find so many investors already and in this way it's just going to be less attracting.

What's worse, the other teams in Ligue 1 are unable to put up a strong fight against PSG in the race for the Ligue 1 trophy. Thus, even though PSG is the best team in Ligue 1, but in reality PSG is still veryweak if PSG are in difficult competition with teams that have another great level in the Champions League. So yes,it's not wrong if you say that Ligue 1 is the weakest league compared to other big leagues in Europe.
I agree with your opinion that Ligue 1 is one of the weakest leagues among the top European leagues. In fact, we can see how dominant PSG is in Ligue 1 and how other teams are unable to compete with them.

But I think PSG is not a weak team when compared to teams from other leagues. PSG dominates Ligue 1 because other teams are weaker than them, but I see PSG can also become one of the best teams in European competition. PSG made it to the semifinals in the UCL and that shows their level. It's just that they have never been among the favorites to win the UCL in my opinion.

For me, Monaco is very similar in its politics to Dortmund, France also has good teams and by the way, I don’t watch Bundesliga matches much more often than Ligue 1 matches.

Meanwhile, for the other teams who usually take turns representing Ligue 1, they are like mediocre teams, which means they are not favored at all, in fact I personally doubt whether they will be able to compete or not in the Champions League. Because for several seasons I have seen that the performance of this Ligue 1 team in the Champions League has been quite minimal compared to other teams from the English League, La Liga, Serie A, for example.
This is something that is no longer surprising, some people also say that Ligue 1 is a league that is not very interesting and this is confirmed by their performance in the Champions League.
July 10, 2024, 11:51:10 AM
PSG is an elite team, the quality of the squad they have always places them in the group of favorite teams to win the Champions League trophy. Their failure to win the Champions League was because the players did not have the mentality to win the competition. This was because the PSG players' mentality was not honed in the domestic league because every match they played there they were always able to win easily.
That is the reason why Ligue 1 is always dominated by PSG because their opponents are actually not that difficult, which makes the players not have a strong mentality because of the lack of resistance that is their experience. If PSG were in a domestic league like the EPL or in Laliga, they would probably have a strong mentality. to be able to win the UCL next season, but it's also true that unfortunately their mentality is not that strong because there is a lack of tough resistance in the domestic league which allows them to play more seriously.But I also don't want to underestimate Ligue 1 and the fact is that currently PSG always dominates it and then wins it, so it wouldn't be strange especially without Mbappe. I'm sure PSG can still dominate there, except for the UCL next season, they must immediately recruit new players as Mbappe's replacement because it is important to compete again in the UCL in the new season, no one knows what PSG's strength will be without Mbappe but Enrique must be able to make many better changes to achieve PSG's desired goal, namely the UCL trophy.
July 10, 2024, 10:50:35 AM
Now again they are working on few quality players to join them and having better results, but this is surely having not solid strategy for them to develop things we have reports they are working on few top players to join them for the next season, and they are able to stay at the top in this league and having good results in Champions League with all will be available in few days.
For me things are very good when it comes to asking for new players, PSG have a small problem, they have good players, but the transfers that can happen at the moment will generate what the team will be from now on, there are good players, but I don't know, sometimes the profiles that Luis Enrique wants are young but very Young and that are very good, and that is Difficult because the young People do not have much Experience and sometimes in these Ligue 1 games they need to have Experience , of course that is my way of Thinking.
PSG’s Luis Enrique to force Kolo Muani out to make room for Super Eagles striker
Quote
he coach of Ligue 1 Champions – Paris Saint-Germain, Luis Enrique, is looking to allow Randal Kolo Muani to leave the club to make space for Victor Osimhen, Soccernet.ng reports.
Osimhen wants to leave Napoli and has been heavily linked with Arsenal, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and some Saudi Arabian clubs, but the 25-year-old is keen on a move to the English Premier League.
Kolo Muani joined Le Parisien from Eintracht Frankfurt at the start of last season for a fee of around €95.00m but could only find the back of the net nine times in 40 games, while his striking partner, Gonçalo Ramos, scored 14 goals in 40 games.
With Kylian Mbappe moving to Real Madrid on a free transfer, Luis Enrique wants a striker that can be a sure source of goals. As per Corriere Dello Sport, Osimhen would be perfect in the ideas of Luis Enrique and the club’s Sports Director, Luis Campos, who has known him since his teenage years.
Luis Campos was a part of the team that facilitated Osimhen’s deal from FC Charleroi to LOSC Lille in 2019 and would be pivotal in bringing the Nigerian striker to Paris if the deal materializes.
“I went to Lagos to see the Under-17 World Championship. After seeing him in one game he had convinced me: I called my CEO every night to take him, I told him that within two years he would become one of the best in Europe, but the price was too high for a seventeen-year-old and finally went to Wolfsburg. In the last twenty meters, Osimhen is like a cat when you throw a ball at him, it’s incredible, he attacks them all,” the Portuguese said in 2019

There are things that France's politicians have done that make good players stay away from Ligue 1, for example a very recent case was this bad behavior by the mayor of Marseille
The mayor of Marseille has demanded that his city's football club do not sign Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood.
Marseille mayor Benoit Payan has said it would be "unacceptable" if Greenwood ends up joining.

the politician is trying to give orders at a club, he is trying to get involved in sport, these types of attitudes are not good, when neymar played for PSG there was also a mayor who constantly complained about the things that neymar did in the city, the french fans didn't either help, they were constantly criticizing messi and neymar and that made the players leave. France needs to separate politics from sport and French fans need to start being humble

In my opinion, the French League is one of the weakest leagues among the European leagues. The quality of football in this league is not very high, the players and teams are below the Champions League level.
For a few seasons PSG performed well, among the other teams there was no team that had a chance of winning the title, perhaps they have not been very successful in the last 20 years. The 3rd and 4th teams in the Champions League will be easy opponents for other teams

The French League is absolutely nothing compared to other standard league with fierce competitive race amongst themselves. Ligue One have only entertaining features but when it comes to the real deal, they snapped out of it because they're incompetent to face major clubs. For instance, in the UEFA Champions League, we all know what always happen to Paris Saint-Germain failed attempts in numerous times. They've tried and tried until they get no hope left. Perhaps it doesn't mean they will give up but continue to make attempts because winning is sure.
Apart from that, PSG is indeed an icon for this league, but overall they are not much different from other teams from the Portuguese or Turkish leagues who always suffer the same fate of being eliminated in the Champions League and not achieving anything they want. So Ligue One is nothing more than a decoration that is too forced.

For PSG to improve as a club, players are not enough. Your point about the Messi-Mbappe-Neymar trio failing is actually the reason why I said this. When a club had stars like Ramos, MNM trio, Donnarumma, Veratti and so on and so forth, and had to exit the UCL at the Round of 16, no player can join the team and fix it. The Paris Giants have a lot of problems structurally and in terms of mentality too. They need a rebuild and need to set clear expectations, without that nothing is going to change.
For one team to have all these players that have played with each other in some clubs before and have enough experience in Champions League and yet failed to win the Champions League, there is a question tag among the team management because I don't know who to blame because the team PSG had then, even without a coach they should perform and probably win all any team in the European top teams, but yet they failed; I don't think the coach is the problem because they have tried several coaches and no result yet; therefore, no player will join the team to help them win the Champions League unless if the management has changed somethings and maybe sign new players in the team.
I am thinking that if the players will play as a team for the next coming season without depending on single payer as they used to do during Mbappe's time, they can do better even in the Champions League, because the attention of the oppositions will be divided as they will not know who to target.
July 09, 2024, 03:07:42 PM
Osimhen has above average individual quality, last season his performance declined due to being affected by injuries, and the change of three Napoli managers made it difficult for Osimhen to find his best playing form. If PSG is serious about recruiting Osimhen, I think it is the right step as a replacement for Mabppe departure.
For PSG, high prices are actually not a big problem, as PSG has very stable financial strength, and their expenses will decrease drastically after Mbappe leaves. Enrique certainly admires Osimhen quality, and will probably ask management to immediately complete his move. Even though PSG can perform well without recruiting a replacement for Mbappe, that can only happen in Ligue 1, not in the Champions League.
So far, Osimhen transfer saga looks stagnant without any significant developments, clubs interested in him have not increased, perhaps this is due to the high price that Napoli wants. Despite all that, it is better for Osimhen to leave, for the sake of a brighter future career. With PSG, Osimhen can experience lifting trophies and playing in the Champions League every season.

In this case, not only Osimhen’s desire plays a role, perhaps De Laurentiis will play a decisive role, if he decides that he will not sell Osimhen for less than 130 million, then he will remain in the team. Napoli bought Osimhen for 70 million (possibly some other bonuses, I’m not sure), does De Laurentiis really think that his value has doubled during this time. By the way, Arsenal is ready to buy Osimhen now for exactly this price, that is, it is quite possible that Osimhen’s market value is as such. And by the way, if PSG are not ready to buy Osimhen at the price for which Napoli wants to sell him, then the price is still too high, because PSG have money and they could start bargaining if they wanted. I suspect he may stay at Napoli again for another season.
It's not confirmed yet if PSG is really interested in hiring Osimhen or not but I'm sure there are some offers for this player and since PSG lost Mbappe recently, Osimhen can be a good option for them to fill his place however these two players are not in the same level at all and Osimhen can't fill the place of Mbappe in PSG.
Napoli made a smart move when they extended the contract of Osimhen and as you said I think Napoli will not lose him easily.

The Paris Giants have a lot of problems structurally and in terms of mentality too. They need a rebuild and need to set clear expectations, without that nothing is going to change.
I feel like the reason why they sucked those times is not because of players but because they just bought names and did not care about how it would fit. Like if they needed some defender with passing skills, but had a good defender who was a famous player that is known by everyone, but was a no-nonsense style, they would get him instead, or if they needed some quick winger, they would get a player maker one, if they need a striker, they would get a false nine.They always ended up doing things that were not that great and this resulted with them having some sort of issues. They did not look at what they needed, they looked at who they can afford was the most famous player. If they stop getting the most famous they can, then they will do fine.

Paris Saint Germain is by far the best team in League 1. Their performance last year was not bad at all, but now the UCL championship is expected from them and the League 1 championship is out of the success line for them. Winning League 1 is the easy thing. There will be no Mbappe next year, let's see how the squad will be structured in PSG.
Everybody is expecting to see PSG's performance without Mbappe. The club has been preparing for his departure which was why Luis Enrique kept on the bench in some games to test the abilities of other players. Replacing him will be difficult but some quality players in the market can be impactful in the club's pursuit of Champions League glory. The French player is not the first superstar to leave PSG without winning the UCL. Top players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani, Ángel Di María, Neymar, and Lionel Messi failed to lead the French side to Champion League glory. Maybe they will have to search for another world-class player. Napoli cannot sell a player who will strengthen Napoli without a high profit. The transfer fee he will bring to them must be too high for them to allow Osimhen's transfer. Osimhen will be one of the important names for Conte next year. So he will be a player who will contribute if he stays in the team, but we heard last year that he wanted to go to the Premier League. I think he is less likely to go to Paris. If he goes, it will be the Premier league.
Victor Osimhen has already started pre-season with Napoli. He is one of the five players who have arrived at Castel Volturno for the season's preparations. He will be expected to undergo some medical tests and get ready for a new era under Antonio Conte. We all know the striker wants to leave but if there are no offers, remaining in Napoli will also not be a bad decision for both the player and the club.

A reasonable reason, because when talking about Ligue 1 in this era, then of course anyone will agree that PSG is the best. Although indeed, in the past Ligue 1 at least had Marseille which also managed to have a good history in the Champions League,because Marseille had won the Champions League trophy in the past. But in this era, even though PSG has made great efforts by buying great players, but PSG still failed in the Champions League.
What's worse, the other teams in Ligue 1 are unable to put up a strong fight against PSG in the race for the Ligue 1 trophy. Thus, even though PSG is the best team in Ligue 1, but in reality PSG is still veryweak if PSG are in difficult competition with teams that have another great level in the Champions League. So yes,it's not wrong if you say that Ligue 1 is the weakest league compared to other big leagues in Europe.
