For several seasons we have seen PSG single-handedly dominate the French league. They remain at the top of the French league despite having the greatest attacking line-up in history and are currently leading the French league despite having a relatively weak side. The performance of this team in France league is great but outside of France league I know why this team cannot perform as expected. Nice is PSG's closest rival so far this season but the points gap between this team and PSG is huge so Nice cannot be considered as a tough opponent for this season. If Nice is to be more competitive with PSG, they need to improve their performance but they will be able to compete with PSG this season even though it is very difficult for Nice to close such a big points gap.

No matter how much teams improve, they can't improve as much as "I can spend 100+ million if I want to" type of PSG, that's just not possible. What PSG could do if they want to do, is not what other teams could even dream of and the difference is huge.

This is why I believe that we can't really expect other teams to do well. Even if they do well for a short burst, like how Lille won it once, I think it's clear that we are going to see them sell all their good players and that's going to end up hurting their situation a lot. I hope that we could make a change from it eventually but we will not and PSG will continue to end up with their winning streak, not just game, but also seasons as well, they will just keep winning.

I do not think so. This time was so different compared to a few years ago. It proves that how some new clubs were climbing up but they were not capable enough in competing against PSG. This makes me think that if PSG is having more than 90% chance to win the game.
Nice and monaco are showing good improvements but it was not enough to beat PSG. PSG is far stronger compared to the last season caused by it has got the best performance by building very good chemistry at this moment.

The title can be given to the PSG caused by it has no competitor who can compete against PSG. PSG was not able performing better last season, but it has been successful in building the performance even better than before.
PSG needs to be consistent to get french league trophy this season. Im sure that 99% PSG will be able to winning the competition caused by it was having the biggest valuation in french league.
PSG will be dominating at the end of season.

Also, if Nice want to really be a contender for the Ligue 1 title, at least Nice should also have a balance of having a high number of goals but only conceding a lower number. Because after all, that factor is also what happened to Lille and Monaco when they managed to get the Ligue 1 trophy competing strongly with PSG at that time . But ya, what is happening now about Nice is the fact that Nice does not have a good number of goals and of course, this factor does not make Nice strong to be able to compete with PSG in the title race. So yes, with results like that, PSG can still guarantee to still win the Ligue 1 trophy this season, because there are no teams that have better quality than PSG this season in Ligue 1.

In the French League, all other teams except for PSG have a close race and that's hard to say which team has more chance between Nice and Monaco because the facts about these two teams are about their players and the money they spend. We know Nice couldn't have a good performance recently and they were even about to lose their place I'm the send place in the French League.

In a football match anything can happen. But if you look at other teams I think there is very little chance of them beating PSG to win the League. One team that was able to beat them was Lille in the 2020-2021 season and if you look at the statistics it's not like PSG performed badly and then lost points. The competition was very competitive until the end of the season and Lille won the League by only 1 point. This means that to beat PSG you need another team that is also able to perform consistently. NICE has shown good performance some time ago but currently they are inconsistent with winning then losing then winning and then losing again.

No matter how long we try to talk about Paris Saint Germaine's dominance in the French league, the truth is that they'll continue to be at the top of the league and dominate the league as long as they want until other clubs in the league decides to step up their games and starts investing in their respective clubs like Paris Saint Germaine's management are currently doing.

You don't expect a club who spend so huge like Paris Saint Germaine on almost all the transfer windows to struggle to win the league with clubs that mostly rely on breeding young talents into becoming world class players. The financial strength of Paris Saint Germaine is undoubtedly stronger than any club in the French league and I'm very optimistic that they'll continue to dominate the league until another big investor takes over the ownership of another French club

Yes, money is one of the factors why the same thing happens in Ligue 1, Paris Saint Germain is very dominant there, this cannot be separated from the financial capabilities they have, while other clubs do not have the capabilities as big as Paris Saint Germain has. We'll see when they brought in 3 strikers labeled as stars at that time, only they were able to do that, not to mention the privileges given to one of the players who is currently a problem.
If only other clubs had the same abilities as Paris Saint Germain, I am very sure they would be able to keep up with Paris Saint Germain in the competition. In my opinion, that's what they have to fix first, how their income can increase to be able to make changes to the squad. Because it cannot be denied that differences in financial capabilities ultimately create distance between clubs.

Every season we see a repetition of the same thing. Several teams performed well at the start of the season. And they fight hard with PSG for the top spot in the table. But gradually the performance of each team started to become erratic, on the other hand the performance of PSG became stronger. At the end of the season we see PSG team as champions of Ligue 1.

PSG is a very rich club. And they spend a lot of money on player purchases and player wages. Other teams in Ligue 1 are not interested in spending so much money. So they cannot strengthen their squad much. Can't add any star players to the squad. So naturally every season we see the dominance of PSG.

Maybe what you say is true, that injuries to key players will result in teams like Nice and Monaco being inconsistent and therefore unable to compete with PSG. But in my opinion this is not a matter of player injuries, they are unable to compete but because PSG is too strong for them, especially in their squad of players.

PSG is the biggest team in the world, although currently PSG cannot match the records of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Munich, Man United, Liverpool and Juventus. but because they have a lot of money they can buy players easily, and in the end the French League is less attractive because no one can compete with PSG. So it is not surprising that if the domestic league in France increasingly dominates, the hatred from supporters of other clubs will become greater because other clubs will no longer have the opportunity to compete for the league title.

IMO, sooner or later, Nice will experience a decline in ranking and perhaps its position will be taken by AS Monaco, which is only 2 points behind, as well as Berst, whose ranking could be overtaken at any time by a team below it. Moreover, the difference in points from Nice to Lille is not that significant. At least, for me, AS Monaco has made more real progress than Nice, even with Berst. So, the problem is not how Nice competes with PSG in the race for the League trophy in this competition. however, how will the Nice squad maintain the position they currently occupy?.

Because AS Monaco and Lille at least have a chance to overtake the two teams who are ranked 2nd and 3rd. For me, PSG's chances are too difficult for teams below their ranking to beat. so ideally, how can Nice maintain its position in 2nd place in Lique 1 as much as possible. Not much different from Berst, in the end these teams will experience a decline in performance or the ranking they currently occupy. however, if Nice is able to maintain their position until the end of this season, this team deserves to be appreciated because their hard work has produced far more results than last season. Well, since this competition still has matches remaining until the season ends, we'll just follow developments. because every week, the positions at the top of second to fifth can change depending on the team's performance when they play their matches later.

This match has ended where PSG managed to secure victory with a score of 1-4, indeed sometimes we wonder why the coach doesn't withdraw their core players in a match that is less important for them but in this way it is certainly very prone to things that are not desirable for things to happen. For their star players. Yes, even though this doesn't have a bad impact if the player plays carefully, they still have to be careful when playing in matches that are not very important to them. However, we don't know what strategy Luis enrique implemented, but I think he really gave mbappe playing minutes full time in every match played by PSG this season.

Apart from that, in today match, it was clear that the opponents that PSG faced were really weak because they were unable to stop the attack that was built by PSG. So far, PSG has finished all the matches they have played by winning, which means they are very focused on winning trophies in every competition they participate in.
 I hope their concentration can continue on the Champions League because the champions league will be their target to win their first title.

Injuries to key players could very well result in the team being inconsistent in winning matches so that teams like Nice and Monaco are often easily left behind by PSG, who are still kings in Ligue1. But if this is caused by player fatigue, I think we need to look at the playing schedule of the two teams this season in whatever league they are in. Because if both of them only play in Ligue1, I don't think their players will get tired easily because other teams' players do too, including teams that have high consistency in Ligue1.

I understand why Luis Enrique didn't rest Mbappe in this Coupe De France match because apart from this it can continue to boost the player's performance and on the other hand, Mbappe definitely wants to continue scoring goals at the same time so he can become the top scorer in this competition. We know he never gets bored of scoring goals and in this match alone Mbappe scored a brace and led PSG to win with a score of 1-4.

I'm quite surprised to see Luis Enrique not subbing Kylian Mbappe off already. I mean the Orleans game going on in the Coupe de France right now. We are in the last minutes of the game but still he is on the pitch. He has contribution in every single game PSG have scored so far of course. But I think it is better to rest your best player as much as possible in a game like this.

It is risky as well because your player can get injured and miss more important games too. Anyway PSG are just moving on. They couldn't win this cup in the past two seasons. Maybe they would like to put an end to this bad streak. 

It's very true adding all the uncertainties that comes with football recently its very possible that PSG can act very poorly and other teams take advantage of them to getting to the top of the table that was how it happened few seasons back where PSG later struggled getting to win the league title as they lost it that season.

Football has gone beyond this bro. Don't be surprise if PSG now start struggling for top 10 within their league. AS Saint-Étienne has won the league title several times. I think is the second to PSG to have carry the league title around 10 times but see how they now struggle to win matches this days. Although I don't pray for such for PSG, but it can happen.

Injuries to key players could very well result in the team being inconsistent in winning matches so that teams like Nice and Monaco are often easily left behind by PSG, who are still kings in Ligue1. But if this is caused by player fatigue, I think we need to look at the playing schedule of the two teams this season in whatever league they are in. Because if both of them only play in Ligue1, I don't think their players will get tired easily because other teams' players do too, including teams that have high consistency in Ligue1.
