PSG is not losing right now and also the league title as well. They are definitely not going to lose the League title this season as either. Because they are already at a big advantage in terms of points. The chance of them losing the league title is almost as the same as them winning the Champions League, which is almost zero. And I think we can simply say that there are not many teams/any team that will actually be able to give them a good competition for the league title. So it is something they do not have to worry about at all.

Even if Kylian Mbappe didn't score in this match that doesn't mean he was totally ineffective. He annoyed the defence line of Nantes, almost scored a goal in the beginning of the match, he was able to get a penalty disallowed by the VAR although there was a contact. The fact that he was playing in the match, makes the opponents stressed and focusing a little more on him.
In the other hand, it is good to see other players in PSG scoring since Mbappe will not remain with them for a long time.

PSG was able to win but it was definitely a little too close for comfort. I think it is not a crime to expect better performance from PSG. And about the player, I also agree that his performance should definitely be a lot better compared to what he is doing right now. And yes, value for money is something we cannot say about him. He should be doing a lot better. But yes there is still time. And probably he will get better with time. Maybe it is just something about him being able to get set with the team.

But I was a little disappointed because PSG only won by 1 goal different in this match, because if I compare it with their head to head results, at least PSG always wins by at least 2 goals different . Because after all, PSG is also playing at home in this match but still, it is still not easy for PSG to score more goals ths match. But yes, I realize that of course the most important thing for them is only about getting 3 points but at least, PSG must be able to improve their quality at least with wins that can be obtained with clean sheets too.

I do agree that he has to come to terms with what he wants to do and just do that, keep waiting on him to make a move but he is not doing that. If he wants to go to Real Madrid then he should go out and say that he will leave the club and go to Madrid at the end of the season, or if he wants to stay at PSG then just extend his contract and stay there as well, basically make up his own mind and just do something like that, it would be a lot easier for the people and should be considered as a good thing.

Life is not all that simple and we may end up with a situation that we would be considering him as decided and then judge him based on that. When he is at purgatory like this at all times, it's not easy to judge him for what he does because we do not know what he is thinking when he is doing something. I get that we may not end up with something that would be good to end up with, so it is going to be tough decision until he tells the world what he will do.

PSG still hopes that Mbappe will continue to stay in Paris after this season, but there is a lot of interest from the Premier League and Real Madrid. Kylian Mbappe's contract with PSG is only valid until June next year. That means that Real Madrid faces the opportunity to own Mbappe on a free transfer. What do you think? They have a hidden agreement. Real Madrid is leaving the number 9 shirt on this excellent striker. I highly doubt this.

However, Real Madrid does not want to continue being passive in this deal. If he still shows ambiguity, Real Madrid will immediately cut off contact. Instead, they will move on to pursue another striker.

You're right, I agree with you that he's not yet the player he should be, Kolo Muani at Frankfurt was like a goal machine, which prompted PSG to sign him as one of the replacement for their departed stars, however he's yet to deliver what they signed him for, a player that was bought for such a hefty figure should be able to score up to 20 or more goals in a season and I'm not quite sure he'll get up to that amount.

 Well I won't conclude yet, cause the season is still far and like you said, he'll get more time to score more goals, maybe this goal he score would boost his confidence level to score more in their upcoming matches, anyways i won't compare Kolo Muani to Harry Kane cause Kane is a more better and proven attacker, and he's worth the 100m Bayern Munich splashed on him.

No doubt with level and qualities of Kylian Mbappe and many teams are waiting for his signs exactly he will be free agent next season, due FIFA rule transfer for player left contract under five months left Mbappe has freedom to talk and acceptable contract discussion with other team if not reach agreement extend contract with PSG. For Mbappe future extend with PSG or not still can't speculative yet how his contract expiry before and linked will play for Real Madrid but finally he reach agreement deal extend his contract with PSG for several years later, will this speculation repeat again for Kylian Mbappe contract with PSG or in this time he will leave PSG and acceptable Real Madrid or Liverpool are both teams interested for signing him.

In a game which Mbappe was really ineffective PSG won against Nantes in Parc des Princes anyway. The first half was completely one-sided before anything else. Nantes did a good job in the second half by starting to have a balance in the game. That early equalizer was also enough to resurrect their hopes for getting a point as well.

But Kolo Muani had the last word in the last ten-minute period of the game by scoring the winning goal. He is performing impressively since he joined PSG. They spent a lot of money for his transfer fee and they must be really happy to do so now.

Randal Kolo Muani scored the 2-1 and they won, but he is not yet the player he should be. If you look at his 10 games in Ligue 1 this season and his 4 goals, thats not enough for a 100 million euro transfer. He hasnt been on the field for full 90 minutes every game, so the stats are okay, but I would expect more from him if he cost that much money. You cant compare him to Harry Kane, but Harry has scored 18 goals in 13 games, that are many levels of difference. But when Paris are on first place in the league and wins the championship, Kolo Muani will get more time to score more goals, thats what has to happen when Mbappe leaves.

I would be more impressed with Monaco's performance when they only competed with 10 players, they were still able to score additional points for victory, even though Rennes was able to score, it was just luck because Monaco only competed with 10 players and for me Rennes performed poorly as the host had the opportunity to score. more or holding a draw when Vanderson received a red card but unfortunately Rennes did not have the ability to withstand Monaco's attack.
My worry is that in the upcoming match, it seems that Vanderson will not be able to appear with Monaco, being suspended for committing a foul, even though this player is a reliable defender at Monaco.

Mbappe has good potential and his strength is always linked to that of Lionel Messi and Mbappe has always been a hot topic of conversation in football and a hot topic of conversation in the transfer market about big clubs who want to recruit the striker. But Mbappe has not given a clear explanation of where he will go continuing his career, but what is clear is that Mbappe really wants the UCL title. Which PSG has not been able to give him the title, knowing that PSG strength is not yet equivalent to big European clubs such as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich, which have a greater chance and ever won the Champions League title.

Rumors of Mbappe going to Real Madrid have been circulating since last season but there is no truth to this statement, Mbappe should provide certainty regarding the decision he will take so that PSG can think about options to find a replacement, if he still wants to stay at PSG, Mbappe should extend his contract instead of remaining silent and Haven't made a decision yet, but in my opinion it looks like the rumors of Mbappe going to a big club will soon come true because if Mbappe still wants to be at PSG, Mbappe should have signed a contract with PSG but Mbappe is reluctant to do so.

I think Rennes played quite well in that match. Both teams have equal statistics. It's just that we know that Monaco is too strong for Rennes. It was extraordinary that they were able to add a goal when they had to play with 10 players because Vanderson was sent off. Rennes are only 5 points away from the relegation brink and several lower ranked teams still have a game in hand.

3 additional points for Monaco after they managed to bring home a victory from Rennes headquarters. Monaco managed to win with a score of 1-2 even though they had to play with 10 people after they got one player to receive a red card in the 74th minute. But instead of Rennes being able to equalize at that time, Monaco could double the lead in the 85th minute. Rennes managed to create a goal from the spot in the 90th minute, but 1 goal was not enough to make them win at least a draw in this match.
With this defeat, Rennes had to accept another defeat, in total they have now suffered 6 defeats.

Now, we are in 15th round with after win against Nantes at home now PSG having 6 points lead from the second spotted Monaco but if today Nice won against Reims then lead could be 4 from the possible second spotted Nice, and we have 23 rounds more left in this season mean any prediction is not possible even PSG is superior in domestic league from their opponents, but things can take any change, and we can watch changes in positions as well which can hurt any team.

Win against Nantes is surely having good positive impact on PSG as now they are heading to Germany for the another big clash against Dortmund for the spot in round of 16 in Champions League, hopefully they will do better and secure their spot which will bring good booster for them in coming matches from both leagues.

Kylian Mbappe is a good striker that any team will want to sign in their squad, his achievement for PSG can attest to that and should he leave PSG, the club will really find it difficult for a replacement that will equal his quality of play and moreover, PSG's over dependency on Kylian Mbappe is too much because it just seems as if the club may not really do well in his absence but whichever club he chooses to play for he's gonna give in his best because he's a player that's always focused in the pitch of play so definitely he's gonna do a great job to any club he finds himself.

After an unstable initial period, PSG began to win an impressive series of victories. It's no surprise that PSG owns the No. 1 attack in Ligue 1. Luis Enrique's army has continued to be unbeaten in this arena. PSG had a hard-fought victory over Nantes in round 15 of Ligue 1 to firmly secure the top spot in the table.
The goal was only materialized near the end of the first half when young talent Bradley Barcola scored his first goal for the team. That was also the most notable opportunity to end the first half. But Nantes suddenly equalized. But it was in the 83rd minute, originating from a free kick situation. Lucas Hernandez jumped high and headed the ball high, making it impossible for the opposing goalkeeper to catch the ball and opening up the opportunity for star substitute Randal Kolo Muani to score. Thereby helping PSG extend their winning streak in the domestic tournament.

Though we saw a lot of surprising results from big clubs across the top five European leagues this weekend but Paris Saint Germaine made sure they didn't fall in to the category of big teams that were beaten by smaller teams. Kolo Muani's 83rd minute goal ensured the French champions comfortably defeated their visitors Nantes and further extend their lead at the top of the table to five points.

Luis Enrique's Paris Saint Germaine have been very consistent in the league and considering the quality of players in their possession as well as how good they've been Al season, it's very obvious that they're gonna retain the league title at the end of the season

Of course PSG will easily become champions again this season because by the 15th match of this season PSG has been able to widen the points gap to 6 points with the teams below it. so it is very likely that they will close the first half of the season with a large points gap with the second place team.
Apart from that, Monaco and Nice are not too strong to be able to break PSG dominance in Ligue 1 because PSG strength is getting stronger by winning in every match.

Mbappe seems to be starting to provide good space for other players to continue scoring goals and he is not too ambitious anymore judging from the way he plays. However, he is one of the keys to PSG revival this season and of course Luis Enrique is not too worried about the final result if Mbappe plays from the start. On the other hand, Kolo Muani performed well in this match because he played as a substitute but was able to make a big contribution in this match by scoring a goal and sealing PSG victory in today's match.

The match is according to what I predicted, if Paris Saint-Germain will score at least 2 goals in this match. and yeah, Bradley Barcola scored his first goal in this match, and that was quite good as an early goal. while PSG's second goal was scored from the chaos that occurred in the opposing team's goalkeeper's defense area. Fortunately, Kolo Muani was able to take advantage of this opportunity.
As a result, PSG continues its positive trend in this competition with the last 8 matches winning. Thus, PSG was able to maintain a distance of 6 points from Manaco who also won their match against Stade Rennais. Unfortunately, the PSG goalkeeper should have been able to block Mostafa Mohamed's header if he had been more alert. because, its position coincides with the direction the ball is coming from. Maybe, because Mostafa Mohamed's header had quite high speed, Arnau Tenas couldn't block it. PSG should have won this match with a clean sheet. Even so, PSG still got full points in this match.

Now, we are just waiting for the PSG match against Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park.
Regarding Mbappe going to Real Madrid, so far there are no rumors or definite news. So, what is certain is that Mbappe will still be in the PSG uniform at least until this season. Regarding next summer, that still has quite a long gap. So, let's just follow every match that Ligue 1 presents, even though it doesn't really offer exciting matches.
