But Enrique will be facing the same problem as all the other coaches that were given a try to lead PSG to success. It is the Champions League title and nothing else. The Ligue 1 title is taken for granted by most people and I understand why. If there is one team being flushed with money and all the other teams are not, I think it is normal that nobody considers the Ligue 1 title as a big achievement. But I don't think that this PSG team under the lead of Enrique has higher chances to win the Champions League than other PSG teams from the last seasons. But Enrique knew this before he signed the contract.

PSG recruited Enrique by looking at his track record in the Champions League. Of course, if PSG can't win that trophy, then Enrique will face the same problems as other coaches at PSG. Because indeed, so far PSG has only been aiming for that trophy and they not got it yet, management has tried many methods but so far they have failed.
I think so too, the reason is PSG squad can't be said to be perfect now, their chemistry not really good. Also, they are still having difficulty against team from Premier League (Newcastle). So yeah the chance of getting the Champions League Trophy is not that big, but there is still time for Enrique if PSG can qualify tonight.

Luis Enrique had this team in the Champions League final against Juventus Turin in 2014/15:

Marc-André ter Stegen – Dani Alves, Gerard Piqué, Javier Mascherano, Jordi Alba – Ivan Rakitić (90.+1' Jérémy Mathieu), Sergio Busquets, Andrés Iniesta (78. Xavi) – Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez (90.+6' Pedro), Neymar

I think this is enough proof to know that Enrique was a lucky guy, a lucky coach in the right place at the right time. I won't say that Enrique is bad or is not experienced enough, but I think he lacks intensity as a coach to support his team when they have some weaker times. I prefer coaches like Klopp or Guardiola who can lift their team up with all their passion and intense coaching. Enrique isn't that way.

I suppose you might be wrong when you talk about Luis Enrique when he was working in Barcelona, we know Luis Enrique is a gear coach and he had good performance when he was working in Barcelona but this coach is now working in a different team than Barcelona in which Luis Enrique is having a different situation and we can't expect to see the same performance from Luis Enrique and PSG in the Champions League, in fact, everything is changed and predicting PSG for the this Champions League is not that easy.

I'm tipping PSG as well as my favorite in this game. PSG needs this game badly to secure a seat in the round 16 champions league. Even a draw may not favor them as no one knows the exact goal difference that will be between Newcastle and Milan especially if Newcastle eventually won the match. The issue I'm having here is that Borussia Dortmundis playing from away and checking their last 5 games, it favours the team playing at home. So this is where I'm concern, for history not to repeat itself.

But Dortmund is extremely prone to making simple mistakes and I think that PSG can be dangerous enough to punish those mistakes during the game. Mbappe is in good condition, Kolo Muani is ok and Dembele is a high speed striker who can also pose some threat to Dortmund's defense, which I think is not the strongest in the Champions League at all. They are not very fast and the whole attacking line of PSG is high speed. But still the game needs to be won first and of course playing in Dortmund is never easy as they have some of the best and most frenetic audiences in Europe. But given that Dortmund is qualified already and PSG is not, I think PSG will put in a bit more into this game than Dortmund.

Because Dortmund has confirmed that they will qualify, of course their motivation in this match is not as great as that of PSg and this could be an advantage for PSg to win the match.
If you look at PSG's performance so far, there has been positive development and this has made it possible for them to achieve victory in their last match in the UCL and apart from Dortmund's inconsistent performance, even though the Dortmund team also has a good performance, I still see that PSG can be better. than that.

PSG has big targets and ambitions in the UCL, with its performance continuing to develop in a positive direction, the PSG team is certainly very focused on the UCL match to achieve maximum results.

Let me add that I think Dortmund does still care because if they lose this game they also lose the first position, which gives them a harder time in the draw for the round of 16. Look, if they lose the first position, their next opponent in the next round could be Arsenal, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Atletico Madrid perhaps and of course the others, but finishing the group as the leader has a lot of advantages. That's why I believe they will fight as hard as possible, but I think PSG is still closer to winning the game.

I am not agreed with this argument because in last night game Bayern Munich was already confirmed at the top but still they have done impressive job and bring down Manchester United which is now out of event so here PSG needs to give their best if they want to go into next round but if they will be on this strategy then surely they can also face problems and have to face reality check which could be not idea for them.

But, we can still expect good from the PSG as Dortmund is having two defeats from their last few games at home which is surely good for them, but they need to be at their best for having same result like others with their comeback in Champions League is also good so things never been easy, but we can expect good match between these two quality teams in last group match of this season.

Nice are really doing a wonderful work despite being able to score only 16 goals in 15 matches. It isn't easy to collect 32 points with this low goal statistics. They are the least conceding team at the same time. They are amazing at defending but they had better improve their scoring side. Because having this many low-scoring matches might not be good for them in the long run.

It is really difficult for Nice to keep their claim for the title until the end of course. They need to be as consistent as Lens were last season.

But I guess their priority is to finish the season in top 3 to qualify for the Champions League directly rather than winning the title. While PSG are this good in the league it is already extra difficult for Nice to win the title. Sad

Basically, it will still be difficult for Lyon to maintain such good performance because yes, of course it will not be easy to recover perfectly in a short time. So ya, even though in the previous match Lyon managed get win big with a clean sheet but ya, I personally seem quite sure that Lyon will not be able to get consecutive wins at this moment because ya, that will be a difficult target but of course it is still a hope at least to get out of the relegation zone.

Even though ya, for the next match against Monaco it looks like it will still be difficult for Lyon to get points, but at least Lyon has good morale again atthis moment. That way, at least there is high hope for Lyon to succeed in getting more points when playing against other mediocre teams later . But yes, I hope Lyon can hold Monaco to a draw si if that happens, then Lyon will be ready to get out of the relegation zone before the season break.

After ten matches Lyon having first win of this season and now in last game they beat Toulouse which was their second win but still they at the bottom of the league table which is not ideal and now in next game they are having opponent Monaco which is also at their best and can give them another defeat with this all most chances they will end their first half at the bottom and then after this break they need more effort for coming out of the relegation jail.

French League is having mostly unpredictable matches which create good suspense as well but in this season we have worst ever performance from the few teams which were at their best in last season Lyon is also one of these which are worse and needs to give their best in next half otherwise things could be more problematic for them if they are not able to handle this all.

Lyon did a really good work by beating Toulouse on the previous week. I wasn't expecting them to be that much dominant honestly. Lacazette even made a hat-trick and put a great end to his goalless streak. Because he has also been playing really poorly just as the rest of the squad for a long while. But will this 3-0 win be some help for Lyon to continue winning?

I really don't know about that. Their job is going to be much more difficult next time as there is an away game against Monaco. I feel like this will also end up with another loss for Lyon. Monaco are having a really decent season and I don't think they would lose points to a problematic Lyon home.

They didn't play so we'll despite the win. Three goals that has nothing to do with creativity. Toulouse should lose tommorow after this horrible game they played. They did not keep too much of the ball but they was better and had confidence to attack Toulouse. Those three goals moved his goals to six and he goes above former teammate from Arsenal ( Per Emerick Aubameyang ) who also has five goals in league 1.

They still maintaining same position? I just noticed the position they occupy. The first half of the season has not gone well for them. I hope to see changes, they be too good to be down there. Aubameyang was my man of the week. He had a joint five goals and assist contribution for his club.. impressive.

It's not too bad because so far PSG have only suffered one defeat in Ligue 1 and twice in the Champions League, so saying that their performance at the start of the season with Luis Enrique's arrival was very bad is not true. Coaches need to adapt and perhaps the opposite is true with players so that Luis Enrique cannot produce maximum results at the start of the season. Currently, PSG's performance is much better when seen in the Ligue 1 competition because they only experienced their first defeat when they faced Nice as a team that is in second place in the standings.

Nice are one of the strong challengers and even though they are currently four points behind PSG. When compared with the other two teams, it can be said that Nice's performance was much more convincing. Getting to the Ligue 1 title is still quite easy for PSG, but we want to see how Luis Enrique can bring PSG to compete in the Champions League.

PSG were not bad, but we can say they were lazy but now as things adjusted they are at the top and having 4 points difference from the Nice which is currently second-best team in this league and Monaco is having third spot but Lille and now Marseille are also doing good recovery which will bring good entertaining competition in coming weeks after break right now we have just two matches before break and with this PSG will be stayed at the top even now tonight they are going to face Dortmund for the do-or-die match and then having another exciting match against Lille which is also impressive in last few games.

Nice is having good time with Monaco mostly unpredictable in second half, and we can expect Marseille will be joined them for the top spots and things will be challenging but PSG is surely having no problem as they are having enough quality and players which can keep things at their best in league matches.

Lyon is doing fine enough to stay so far, I think just one more win and the yare at relegation zone battle level and not at the very bottom. I know it is shocking to see Lyon at the very bottom and that's not a good thing for them, but they are getting there, if they can have a few more games in the next few weeks, they could be out and just feeling fine. After such a season, they will try to figure out what the reason was for them to be this bad, I get that they are not all that great right now but that's no excuse to not get any better.

I am sure that they will do all in their power to stay, and after staying during the summer they will do much better transfers and get better and reach to mid table levels, they do have enough fans to make that money and stay. Obviously, they won the game and showed that they are capable of winning, and against nearly anyone (ok maybe not psg) so they should be capable of winning again with the current new system they have.

The easiest scenario for PSG to qualify for the round of 16 at the moment is to beat Dortmund, besides that, there is quite a risk of failure. Enrique has certainly evaluated the shortcomings of his squad after the previous draw against Newcastle, and also he understands that this is the time to show the full strength of the resources he has, but if they lose later it means he has no luck at all, his managerial career is at stake. here. Dortmund will certainly not let PSG go smoothly, even though their position is safe and will not be touched in the round of 16.

On the other hand, the adaptation period for the players in the PSG squad is over, they have to contribute to the team by bringing out all the potential they have. Even though in Ligue 1 the position is not yet safe from Nice pursuit, but now we have to shift all focus to the life and death match against Dortmund, it looks like we will see the peak of PSG best performance this season on matchday 6.

Actually the easiest scenario for PSG qualifying to next round depend on their self if can defeat Dortmund on last match but if Newcastle vs Milan match draw have more advantage for PSG keep qualifying although loss from Dortmund. I think good scenario waiting for the other match result exactly three teams except Dortmund have the same opportunity will get one spot left for qualifying to 16 round.

So far, Luis Henrique not really impressive touched with PSG and how difficult to qualify 16 round, although get top standings in domestic league but not really quit well performance regarding how weakness compete between domestic league and champion league match. Bad scenario of Luis Henrique future with PSG if can't qualify to 16 round, I doubt he will be longer extend with PSG until his contract expiry if can't qualify PSG to 16 round and actually should bring PSG until quarter and final stage.

Even though they won, that doesn't change anything about Lyon's current position and to be honest, the win against Touluse is not a surprise because Touluse is also not a tough club. Touluse has also lost a lot of points and is not in good condition so this match is not that interesting for me considering the performance. Both teams are equally weak but I appreciate Lyon's success in this match.

The match against Monaco is a very tough match for Lyon. I think Lyon will definitely lose points again because Monaco's performance is stronger, while Lyon, on the other hand, this victory is not too surprising, but if they can beat Monaco then I will really be very surprised. Tongue

It was a great start for Lacazette after this season having barely seen him score and once he did he scored a hat trick. I'm curious that one of last season's top scorers will likely start to return this season if his performance is still the same as last time.

I'm not so sure this victory will bring Lyon to consistent wins and it looks like we will still see them suffer a defeat or even a draw. Talking about the next opponent is Monaco, I will be a little optimistic about Lyon even though in reality they will lose again but at least they have to try first and taking advantage of the momentum of the previous win will also improve their performance.

Tomorrow will be a deciding match for PSG to be able to determine whether this club can qualify, but unfortunately this match will be held at Dortmund's headquarters and if you look at the statistical data, PSG lost when they played away from home. I think if Dortmund doesn't play at full strength, PSG can beat them, but It looks like Dortmund will continue to show their best in front of their supporters even though they are already in a safe position to qualify.

The match will actually be very interesting because there both performance is equal and they are both leading on there champions League group table but however considering the performance of Borussia Dortmund I think PSG has more upper chance of wining the match because if we closely check on there previous matches performance you will realize that they have actually lose a lot of there matches they were supposed to win, so I believe PSG will win them because considering there last meeting on September PSG win them 2-0 so there is every chances of PSG wining them again today but however the only challenges PSG will have on that match is they are going to the home of Borussia Dortmund so even if PSG will win them but it will not be an easy match for them.

Mbappe did scored the most goals in that team this season that's true, he does look like he is playing one of his best seasons, already at 15 goals and that's a huge deal, he may end up with 30 goals this season, and that wouldn't be shocking if he can stay healthy and play all the games. However, look at his asset numbers, it's nowhere to be found, why? Is it because he is a bad passer, or because he doesn't like to pass and wants to score?

Well, maybe that has something to do with this, and yes he may look to score more often than passing that's true, however most of the reason is because the entire PSG team is built in a way that their strategy relies on getting Mbappe to score, everyone else is just trying to find him and pass to him for a goal. That's the main reason why he scored so much.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mbappe is the current top scorer in league 1 because he has always been PSG's mainstay, even other players always pass the ball to him to score throughout the match and if we talk about assists, yes, I admit that he is not a player who wants to pass. the ball to other players, even other players believe that Mbappe will score, whereas actually other PSG players could score, but for some reason it is always given to Mbappe and you may occasionally see Mbappe's playing style when he is on the field, he is always waiting for the ball from other PSG players. and very rarely wants to try to steal the ball from the opponent.
So I say this because I never miss a PSG match and always see Mbappe with that style of play.
But it doesn't cause problems for other players, but in the long term this makes other players worse because they depend on Mbappe's performance while this player immediately leaves PSG.
It is possible that Mbappe will score 30 scores this season as a final farewell to PSG before he leaves the club.

But still the game needs to be won first and of course playing in Dortmund is never easy as they have some of the best and most frenetic audiences in Europe.

If you look at PSG's performance so far, there has been positive development and this has made it possible for them to achieve victory in their last match in the UCL and apart from Dortmund's inconsistent performance, even though the Dortmund team also has a good performance, I still see that PSG can be better. than that.

PSG has big targets and ambitions in the UCL, with its performance continuing to develop in a positive direction, the PSG team is certainly very focused on the UCL match to achieve maximum results.

Mbappe is in good condition, Kolo Muani is ok and Dembele is a high speed striker who can also pose some threat to Dortmund's defense, which I think is not the strongest in the Champions League at all. They are not very fast and the whole attacking line of PSG is high speed. But still the game needs to be won first and of course playing in Dortmund is never easy as they have some of the best and most frenetic audiences in Europe. But given that Dortmund is qualified already and PSG is not, I think PSG will put in a bit more into this game than Dortmund.

Yeah actually you are right it will be very difficult for any club to compete with PSG because the performance of PGG can never be compared with any other club in this league because if you check the performance of PSG and there statistics this season you will see that PSG has make a quite performance this season than there performance few years ago when Lionel Messi and some other good quality players was still there, however in those days people were thinking that since Lionel Messi and some other quality players was on PSG it will be very difficult for any club to win them but on the contrary there performance became worst as such that they were not consistent in there performance and also in times of there wining but ever since they remove some of there players they were able to go back to there previous ways of performance and they are the best team on the league now.

Maybe it's because their new head coach this season, I mean Enrique. Him become the right coach at PSG, and now PSG performance is better than few years ago when PSG have Messi Neymar etc. But this season PSG still have Mbappe. Frankly, without Mbappe PSG might have difficulty. Also, although the performance in League has been quite good, but PSG performance in the UCL has not really impressive so far.

Tomorrow they will play against Dortmund, PSG must win whatever happens because they are must to qualify R016, that is their mission right now. The reason is points gap with Newcastle and Milan is very close,and PSG must play all out in tomorrow match, to continue that big competition.

Even so, there is no coach who can make PSG win the UCL title, most PSG coaches can only bring PSG to win the League 1 title and PSG always dominates the title in the domestic league, if Luis Enrique can bring PSG to the Champions League title then this coach can be called suitable for PSG club, it is not easy for PSG to win the Champions League title but if PSG can fight even harder and have players whose strengths are evenly distributed like big clubs like Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Manchester City I am sure PSG will win the title there and now The only thing I see in the PSG squad that is truly convincing is Mbappe. If Mbappe leaves, I doubt whether PSG will still be able to achieve good results.

Tomorrow will be a deciding match for PSG to be able to determine whether this club can qualify, but unfortunately this match will be held at Dortmund's headquarters and if you look at the statistical data, PSG lost when they played away from home. I think if Dortmund doesn't play at full strength, PSG can beat them, but It looks like Dortmund will continue to show their best in front of their supporters even though they are already in a safe position to qualify.
