Another win by Lyon, wow! Especially that win over Monaco was really surprising to me as their opponent wasn't playing with 10 players either. Now they have made their winning streak three games thanks to another win over Nantes home. Lyon played really impressively from the beginning to the end honestly. They were really effective with their goal attempts so they deserved it.

These consecutive wins have helped them get out of the relegation zone so far. But to maintain this they need to continue to work hard just like this. But while they are on fire I expect the players to perform really motivatedly to move on solidly.

At least, when Lyon always managed to score in some previous matches such as against Lens, Rennes and several other matches. Then ya, I think, at that time Lyon seemed to have good potential to recover even though indeed, after those matches the fact Lyon still lost big too like when playing against Marseille lost with a big score of 3-0 and also lost against Lille with a score of 2-0.

But even so, the fact is that Lyon still managed to recover even though slowly. But ya, ofcourse, with good results from these three consecutive matches, then Lyon managed to get out of the relegation zone in the first half of the season . Furthermore, it is clear that Lyon still needs to work hard to be able to completely stay away from the relegation zone in order to get a safer position of course.

It is kind of strange when you check the table and see a team that hardly scores any goals and yet they are close to PSG. But yes in this case it is the defense that won them their games and then they were also highly efficient with the chances they get. But this instantly equates to lost points when their defense is not on top of everything on a certain day. They sometimes score a few goals, but that is quite rare and they often score a single goal and that was it. If the defense is not perfect on that day, they lose points. That is why I think it would be important to work on their attack.
A strong defense will allow them to get at least 1 point, but for the competition 1 point is an unsatisfactory result, because if they want to compete they must get 3 points in each match. They can actually still be said to be lucky, because at the same time Paris Saint Germain is also not that strong to continue to get the victory, although it cannot be denied that they are the strongest club at the moment. They have tasted 4 draws and 1 defeat so the gap between Nice and Paris Saint Germain is 5 points. But 5 points is a distance that will be difficult to pursue here, especially if it puts Paris Saint Germain, I have said it many times.

That is the really absurd thing. If someone presented you with the stats but would not show you the whole table and would ask you what your guess is where that club is ranked, you would probably not think that they are 2nd and right behind PSG. And because this is not normal, it is also unlikely to work out for them until the end of the season. But as we can see even if they keep this average per game, it would still not be enough to win the title I think.

PSG is still the champion, they always have the strongest squad in this tournament. No opponent can compare with them in Ligue 1. Facing Real Sociedad is said to be "easy" in the 1/8 round of the Champions League, but PSG still appears cautious and highly appreciates the opponent. If they are eliminated in this round, they will spend more time in the domestic tournament, because I think this season they do not have enough strength to conquer the Champions League.
PSG currently leads Ligue 1 2023-2024 after the first leg. In the last eight times they did this, they were all champions. Luis Enrique and his team will have two weeks off before meeting Toulouse in the French Super Cup match.
PSG are Champs in the Ligue One but they can't comprehend the pressure in major tournaments due to their inconsistent performance in matches and this is incurred poor performance from the players and making Luis Enrique looks incompetent of managing the club. PSG have been underrated from day one in the UEFA Champions League competition because they failed to utilized their chance of winning the UCL trophy in the past season and now is definitely not theirs because there's presence of couple of elite clubs that have the UCl title in mind and wouldn't do anything to give up.
PSG had the most stars last season but even with the most world class stars they did not do well in the Champions League last season.  When PSG made one surprise in last season's transfer window, we football fans thought maybe PSG would win the champions trophy this season but they forgot to buy midfielders and quality defenders in their rush to buy so many strikers. The result was that while they did well in the strike positions, they did not perform well in the midfield and defense positions due to which they underperformed last season despite high expectations. PSG has less star players this season compared to last season but the team is doing well this season with the arrival of a new manager. The limits to PSG's improvement may remain limited to Ligue 1 this season.

Guys, you are too busy talking about PSG, Nice, Lens, or even Lyon that you forget that Brest at the end of this year has moved up to 4th place in the standings. If we look back, Brest is a mid-table team and has often finished at the bottom of the table in the past few seasons. However, this season they gave different results and continued to achieve consistent wins in every match. Brest are unbeaten in the last 6 matches and they have only lost 4 times so far. This is a very good record considering that they can now be in the top flight and have quite a big point difference over teams like Lille, Marseille and Lens.

I'm curious whether Brest will be able to finish in the top 4 this season or will they return to mid-table because the competition will be increasingly difficult in the remainder of this season and if they let their guard down then that could possibly happen in the future. Well, I actually expect something different every season, but if we talk about PSG they will still come out as champions.

PSG must not underestimate Real Sociedad. They were able to perform quite well in the Group by ranking first and not experiencing defeat. In La Liga they also performed quite well even though they were only able to be in the top 10. PSG is too dominant in Ligue 1 this season and no other team is able to compete with them. I just hope people don't get bored with Ligue 1 because there are no worthy opponents for PSG. I think NICE can be a contender this season but with 2 defeats in the last 5 matches I think NICE have to find a way for them to continue to be consistent in their game.

Ligue 1 was already to reach mid season but there was no good progress from Lorient although the league still have 17 matches remaining but i was highly doubt Lorient can able to bounce back and avoiding relegation zone and talking about Lorient upcoming opponent for next month they have tight schedule because they have to fight against tough team Lille and indeed for the first meet Lorient can win with big scores from Lille but with their current condition i was doubt Lorient will be able to repeat that result even most likely they will be lose from this match
The 3 teams currently in the relegation zone are not in good shape. Last season they managed to stay in Ligue 1 but this season they even found it difficult to compete with promoted teams.
but the point difference is still small and it can be caught. Of course, there must be improvements in the Lorient squad if they want to continue in Ligue 1 next season. this is a challenge for them. the situation may be difficult but it is not impossible that they can fight to stay in Ligue 1. They have to perform better in the remainder of this season.
This season Ligue 1 experienced another change regarding the number of clubs that had to drop from caste and be relegated to Ligue 2. Last season 4 clubs had to be relegated because Ligue 1 changed its format back to 18 contestants each season, automatically now 2 clubs will be relegated and another club must fighting through the play off route to stay in Ligue 1.

Le Havre and Metz seem to have good competitiveness to stay in Ligue 1, after promotion last season. Meanwhile, currently, Clermont, Lorient and Toulouse are in the red zone, due to only being able to achieve 2 wins in 17 matches. There is still a chance to recover, because we see that there is still a lot of match left, but I think they will have difficulty in their efforts.

Lyon consistently recovered by winning 3 consecutive wins, after previously being at the bottom of the standings. While the top standings still belong to PSG, I think Mbappe and colleagues will be champions again this season, no team can seriously pressure them in the hunt for the Ligue 1 trophy.

I still don't believe Lorient will continue to slump in the relegation zone and the previous heavy defeat against Brest continues to worsen their position. Lorient can only collect 12 points in 2023 and from 17 matches they have 2 wins, 6 draws and 9 defeats. This is in contrast to the quality of their performance last season, which managed to appear quite consistent and finish in the top 10 of the standings. I don't know whether they can survive this season or not. It is clear that competition will continue to increase to be free from the relegation zone. However, it is clear that Lorient must be able to recover and be able to emulate what Lyon has done by successfully getting out of the relegation zone since the start of this season.

I didn't expect Lorient to be in the relegation zone this season. We saw quite a good performance from Lorient in the previous season as well. But from the beginning of this season, their performance started to decline. Out of 17 matches, the team won only two matches. And yet their performance is very erratic. The poor performance of the defenders is the reason why Lorient is in such a bad situation. Lorient conceded 35 goals in 17 matches. But there is still a long journey ahead. Each team will play 19 matches and Lorient still has a chance to come out of the relegation zone. If Lorient can tighten up their defense then I think the team can get out of the relegation zone. Because their attack is not weak.
If we talking about Lorient this team was got promotion on season 2019-2020 and they can able to survive at Ligue 1 until now although almost for each season Lorient always be hard struggle to avoiding relegation zone but at least Lorient can able to survive in the last 3 season and indeed last season Lorient was reach one of their best achievement during participant at Ligue 1 because at that time Lorient can able to finish at 10th place with collect 55 points from 34 matches but this season i think it's very hard for them to achieve again top 10 position

Ligue 1 was already to reach mid season but there was no good progress from Lorient although the league still have 17 matches remaining but i was highly doubt Lorient can able to bounce back and avoiding relegation zone and talking about Lorient upcoming opponent for next month they have tight schedule because they have to fight against tough team Lille and indeed for the first meet Lorient can win with big scores from Lille but with their current condition i was doubt Lorient will be able to repeat that result even most likely they will be lose from this match

all PSG needs is experience in the UCL and even though they often get league 1 titles and lead at the top of the standings, it still won't affect their performance in the UCL because the situation is different. PSG has to fight popular teams that are stronger and as I said, they need a lot of experience in the UCL without having to replace the coach or retain the coach for several seasons gives time for the coach to find out how PSG can get the UCL title and I'm sure at least if PSG can be consistent without replacing players or coaches I'm very confident that getting to the final round is a little easier even though they end up losing but experience very valuable.

this season is not the season for PSG to win the UCL title and it is very impossible like the previous season even though it has star players but the coach is very influential and plays an important role while Enrique is currently still new at PSG and he needs some time to be able to contribute to the right strategy. to be able to take PSG to a higher level.

PSG this season seems to have no competitors to win the Ligue 1 title, they are too strong compared to other clubs. So, I think PSG this season will only focus on the UCL league rather than Ligue 1 because without any hard work they will get the Ligue 1 title this season.

Nice is indeed good this season, but that is not enough to be a competitor to PSG because as you said they are only strong in defense but in scoring goals they are having difficulty. This can be seen from the 17 matches that Nice has played they are only able to score 19 goals, this is small compared to PSG, Monaco, Brest and Lille.
PSG at the moment seem to be enjoying some monopoly in the Ligue 1 been the toughest and the top team at the moment but then it's not enough for them to become lax els they have the likes of Nice and others who will be ready to displace them at the top position almost immediately, they are five points apart which isn't much for nice to cover.

If Nice wwins their next three fixtures, it's very much possible the will be at the top of the table is PSG loose two or three games at a go.so there are still possiblity of other teams getting to the top tho it's slim but then PSG have got the UCL to face so I think when they resume the round of sixteen at the UCL they will be a bit distracted at the Ligue 1 a d that will definitely be an opportunity for others especially NICE who would want to cover up the gapto the top of the table.
It is not easy for other teams in League 1 to break PSG's dominance as long as PSG still has Mbappe and the strong squad PSG has still won the League 1 title. Nice is also a strong club but not as strong, although at first it was able to beat PSG, but Nice is not that consistent winning was different from PSG, which initially was not very stable at the beginning, but at the end it was able to provide strong resistance and now PSG has started to focus on achieving victory after victory to continue to widen the gap with Nice. Moreover, Nice is not that much of a pressure for PSG because PSG knows the club that started it performing well in League 1 did not last long to maintain its performance.

In the 3 matches that Nice will face it seem quite tough, Nice will face Rennes away, Metz at home and Brest away, we all know two of them like Rennes and Brest are quite tough matches because Nice is playing away so we don't can predict with certainty whether Nice can win in 3 consecutive matches, especially if PSG suffers a defeat, it seems that this will most likely not happen because PSG is already on the winning path.

Well, PSG worked hard to be top of the league; so i do not agree that they are enjoying some monopoly. Instead what has PSG done? they have gone from 4 points down the league table to going 5 points clear at the top of ligue 1.

They have taken maximum points when others slipped up and they have done this with a new manager and squad after loosing, Messi, and host of others. This is commendable and worthy of praise and should not be considered a form of monopoly!

The Nice team was able to continue their excellent performance for a long time. But I was sure they couldn't compete with PSG. The main reason for this is the weakness of Nice's attack. Nice team is still second in the table only because of their strong defense. In 17 matches, Nice's players managed to score only 19 goals.

For this year's Ligue 1 title, I consider PSG's main opponent to be Monaco. This group is quite strong. Even then, Monaco is 7 points behind PSG. It seems that PSG can easily win the title this season. PSG boys played well in every match. PSG had a great 3-0 win against Metz.
The defense line of Nice is indeed their fondation for their accomplishment so far. Their ability to maintain an excellent defensive record has been crucial in their winning games and their position in the table. Having a strong defense line gives confidence to the team play their game. However, the concern you raise about the weakness in Nice's attack, particularly the low goal-scoring rate in 17 matches, suggests that their offensive capabilities might be a limiting factor when competing against stronger teams.

However, Competing against PSG in Ligue 1 seems beyond their reach. PSG's strong squad, financial resources, and consistent performances make them a giant force. The 3-0 win against Metz shows their capabilities and underlines their potential to secure the Ligue 1 title. I agree that Monaco is the most potential contender. the seven-point gap between them and PSG suggests that PSG has a considerable advantage at this point in the season. Monaco would need to maintain consistent performance and possibly capitalize on any mistakes from PSG to narrow the gap and mount a serious challenge for the title.

It is kind of strange when you check the table and see a team that hardly scores any goals and yet they are close to PSG. But yes in this case it is the defense that won them their games and then they were also highly efficient with the chances they get. But this instantly equates to lost points when their defense is not on top of everything on a certain day. They sometimes score a few goals, but that is quite rare and they often score a single goal and that was it. If the defense is not perfect on that day, they lose points. That is why I think it would be important to work on their attack.

They took an important step in terms of continuing their performance this year by beating their serious rivals Lens 2-0 in the last match. Nice is currently the best defensive team in this league, but their offensive power is just as bad. They scored 19 goals. In other words, they have statistics as if they won every match 1-0.

This game was also full of implications for the next games. Maintaining the distance to Lens was an important goal for them. When you are among the first three after 17 games then I think it is at least legit to think about plans for the rest of the season.

It's true that it looks really as if they won every match 1-0 and they had 11 games in which they scored either 0 goals or 1 goal. This could become a problem for them, but that's nothing they can change in a snap of a finger.

Passing week 17, Paris Saint Germain can be at the top of the standings comfortably, being 5 points above Nice, the club closest to them. with a 5-point advantage in Ligue 1 it will be very difficult to catch up, especially those who have that advantage are Paris Saint Germain who are the strongest club in Ligue 1.
I think they will be able to continue to be comfortable there. Their focus is on the Champions League, because in the last few seasons the Champions League has been their main goal. But in Ligue 1 itself for them it is easy, because there is no club that can really rival them at this time.  Nice, who were good at the start of the season, have in fact declined and are now below them.
Nice is a contender for the Ligue One title but that doesn't portrayed any threat, they're just enlisted as any othe random mediocre club in Ligue One this season. It's almost the end of the year and there's strong probability of these clubs keeping to stellar performance. There's no club that can stand in the same ring to challenge Paris Saint Germain for the league title this season. It's really tough for these clubs to stand out to face energy with PSG who's on fire this season. Luis Enrique always makes sure he's team doesn't hold back when they face average clubs and they always make good use of their chance.
What they lack is an atacking line that can't score goals, I'm sure if they had a sharp attacking line then they would be above Paris Sant Germain, or at least not as far apart as they are now. They are very strong in defense, but that doesn't mean anything when they don't score goals. So far their defense is the most solid and they have only conceded 9 goals, which is a very good record. But when we look at their attack we will really find their weakness this season. When they lose or get a draw, the truth is that their game is not problematic, it's just that they can't create goals, that's all. They have to make improvements in the attacking line.
They took an important step in terms of continuing their performance this year by beating their serious rivals Lens 2-0 in the last match. Nice is currently the best defensive team in this league, but their offensive power is just as bad. They scored 19 goals. In other words, they have statistics as if they won every match 1-0.
