It's a shame that Lens failed to win at home in the match against Lille last night and made them only draw 1-1. In fact, Lens have a full chance of winning, especially since they are the hosts and their previous victory against Arsenal in the Champions League or the previous week when they beat Strasbourg is expected to increase their confidence in being able to win again.

But unfortunately it didn't go quite smoothly because after all the opponent was Lille and from the start this was a match that was quite balanced in terms of squad depth. Even so, at least Lens can still secure one point to continue advancing to a better position and for Lille they have to be thrown to 7th place in the standings after only managing to get one point in this match.
After win against Strasbourg with narrow scored last week i thought Lens will be able to bounce back and beat Lille but unfortunately Lens still unable to playing consistent and yesterday they have to satisfied with only collect 1 points and actually Lens performance yesterday was more better than Lille and since first half Lens even has starting this match with slightly dominate the game but Lens biggest weaknesses during the match is their players were wasted the opportunities to scores and i have seen since the beginning of match Lens at least gets 3 good chances to scored from their striker Wesley Saïd and other player Abdul Samed but unfortunately these players were failed to utilized those chances to scores goals

There are still a number of things that Enrique must do, especially providing training and motivation in finishing because seeing from what happened in the last few matches PSG has always been lacking in finishing but for this week's match with 3 strikers they applied it was much better than expecting a 4-2-3-1 scheme like when facing Newcastle United in the Champions League.

In terms of scheme and possession of the ball they are not lacking because PSG still always dominates in every match they do, it's just that the final solution still cannot be said to be good. They still need to maintain the chemistry of the players for this because sometimes poor finishing occurs because their attack line is not yet integrated.
No coach can provide instant results for a club and they definitely have to adapt to find chemistry with each other, both between players and with the coach. Luis Enrique must try to build the confidence of his players that they are at the same level as other teams competing in the Champions League and if they do not have great motivation to achieve success then the players they have will not have any impact. Apart from that, strategy is something that is needed and coaches must be able to see adjustments in each match because not all strategies can be applied in the same way.

Previously they had a trio of world-class attackers in the team but nothing changed when they played in the Champions League and talking about the mentality they didn't have collectively. PSG managed to beat Rennes with a quite promising score in the away game but Mbappe still hasn't been able to score a goal and it's been four games since Mbappe hasn't scored a goal in all competitions.

What's wrong with Lyon?

A lot of things are wrong with Lyon this season. Laurent Blanc's time has run out and Fabio Grosso has been brought in his place. However there is no improvement at all after 3 games being left behind. They got 2 losses and a draw in these games. If they can't get themselves out of the relegation area and get away from it for a long time then Grosso's time might not be long either.

This game against Lorient was like the one in which they were the most productive in terms of goals. However they couldn't maintain a 3-1 lead and got a 3-3 draw at the end. The defense is still in horrible shape. They need to figure a way out for that area on one hand.

We can't expect to see good performance in Lyon when they have an unstable situation and they don't have a good financial situation to buy the players they want, in fact when you don't have enough money you can't buy the players you need, or the coach who can help you get good results. However, Lyon is a team that usually had the hope of racing at the top of the table and even won the French League before but currently, this team is not in the good form.

There was already a 3-1 score in the first half which made me confident that Lyon would get their first win in Ligue. Uh, it turns out the score application installed on my smartphone sends a notification if the final score is 3-3.

PSG is struggling to reclaim the top of the standings. AS Monaco is maintaining 1st position in the standings from Nice, PSG and Brest.
Marseille is trying to get into the top four of the standings. Meanwhile, Lyon is doing its best to escape from the relegation zone.

What's wrong with Lyon?
Unbelievable with Lyon performance this season in Ligue 1, have chance for first three points last match but failed after Lorient success with brilliant comeback ever behind left 3-1 until 54th minutes game play. New manager, Fabio Grosso can't give more contribution for Lyon actually he failed for first winning after becoming Lyon manager for several matches but get difficult for first winning match. In Ligue 1, Lyon and Clermont Foot are two teams still can't winning one match yet and they are on bottom standings position. Lyon have loss 5 of 8 matches and get three 3 points from three matches draw. How possibilities with Lyon get relegation in this season although still have many matches left in Ligue 1 but inconsistency performance as main problem for Lyon.

Paris Saint-Germain bounced back after their defeat against Newcastle with a solid win over Rennes. Achraf Hakimi showed great form in this match. However, I still have doubts about psg's consistency; they seem to be struggling to stabilize their performance.
Monaco is holding the top position in the league after their impressive 1-3 victory against Reims. Nice follows in second place. psg needs to maintain a consistent performance to secure a top position in the league.
PSG performance are lower than the previous season which was better the season before which was better the season before that and so on.
I don't expect much from them in Champions League and I hesitate to support them this season for the Ligue 1 title except that I am sure their rivals aren't that good to maintain their top ranks. I mean if PSG get the title then it is thanks to the failure of their opponents and not because they are excellent.
What's wrong with Lyon?
Lyon is willing to visit Ligue 2 and won something after they failed to do it in Ligue 1. I don't have any other explanation about their catastrophic form. Not a single victory after 8 rounds? They received 16 goals! 2 goals in every match approximately? That's incredible!
They lost players like Messi and Neymar in this season while each one of these players could perform well and help the team, we can't expect to see the same performance from PSG after losing many players in this season because they also got a new coach and this team also needs some time to get in the good form.

PSG's attack is weak, and the attack performance is completely dependent on Mbappe. We have to accept this. And PSG's overall performance has been poor due to their reliance on just one player. PSG have talented players like Ramos and Asensio in attack. But they are not as experienced as Messi and Neymar. So the void of Messi and Neymar in the squad is still not filled. At the same time I will say that while PSG's defense is strong, the performance of their defenders is quite erratic. Enrique should work more on PSG's defence. PSG desperately need to strengthen their defence.

I read the news in the local media that PSG were given a punishment by Ligue 1. This is because some of those players sing Antigay songs. According to the news there are 4 players who were punished. They are Dembele, Hakimi, Randal Kolo Muani, and Layvin Kurzawa. Of course it's a loss for PSG, they don't have many of the best players. They have also not consistently started the league this season. Mbappe did not appear wholehearted.
Not only did these four players receive punishment, fans also received punishment in the form of not being able to directly enjoy one PSG match in the future, because the League 1 disciplinary committee (LFP) also imposed sanctions on the club. This means that PSG will face Strasbourg without direct support from fans. This sanction has an impact on two sides, firstly the absence of key players can result in a decline in performance, secondly PSG must replace or bear the loss of tickets sold for a home match versus Strasbourg.

Regarding Mbappe, who plays half-heartedly, the management should take a stand, let him leave the club and recruit new players. Because even though it was promised it would be in vain, PSG only had to bear large expenses without getting its maximum contribution.

I agree that PSG is the one to beat and they are doing a great job without a doubt. I think it should be important to realize that it is going to be something that will take a while for people to realize that even though they had some bad results, that doesn't make them bad this season.

Because of how the team changed this summer, and the results weren't all that great, and then that terrible loss to Newcastle, everyone started to think that PSG wasn't doing that great, but we need to realize that it is not going that badly and we should be considering it changing at all times. I personally believe that the best thing to do in this case would be making sure that PSG is still good and we still bet on them to win.

I do not see them losing many points at all times and their odds are getting better as well so betting on them to win will be more profitable this season than it was last season or before. This is why I keep betting on them to win and get good returns.

Even so, at least Lens can still secure one point to continue advancing to a better position and for Lille they have to be thrown to 7th place in the standings after only managing to get one point in this match.

Lens hasn't found their perfect rhythm yet. They have had this amazing game in the Champions League, but they are still in the midst of some issues to get back their consistency from last season. I like the team because they are the typical underdog that can surprise the big teams, which is something I like a lot in sports. I thought when they had their victory over Arsenal that this could be the beginning of a great phase for this season, but it didn't last very long. It's often surprising how much volatility there can be for a team when one week they can beat Arsenal and the next week everything is different again.
It's like Lens has lost its soul and is still unable to stabilize in Ligue 1, but I think they will still try not to be relegated this season. From the start, Lens was an underdog team and perhaps since last season their name has been worth considering because they have succeeded in becoming PSG's competitors in the top flight. But they cannot maintain these results again this season and the results can be as we see now, they are having a hard time winning and most of the time at the start of the season they have suffered too many defeats. This makes their position unsafe and even so it doesn't change the fact that they are still a strong team this season but they do need more time this time to recover.

That sounds very drastic to be honest. I don't think they lost their soul as that would mean other teams who are struggling at the beginning of a season also immediately lost their soul. It would surprise me if Lens has to fight against the relegation zone. I expect them to stabilize with their performances and more importantly with their results and then at least find their position in the midfield of the table. They also have the Champions League to play and instead of being a burden, I think it will help them raise their game to the next level and also raise their level in Ligue 1 accordingly. The bad start doesn't mean this season has to end in a catastrophe for them, but changes should happen rather sooner than later of course.

I don't feel remorse for Kylian Mbappe and Paris Saint-Germain because they deserve every worse events happening to them presently. PSG president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi have absolutely nothing to offer to the club after been incharge close to decades, PSG is stagnant in performance, declined over the past seasons. Their humiliation against an average EPL side, Newcastle was probably not a good results for the team. Concerns Mbappe, he would have exited the club long ago but he stood back because of the heavy salaries promised and placing as the most valuable player in the team have made him to reject relevant bids from Real Madrid.

Honestly I wish PSG not to be able to make it to the Ligue 1 title this season. This performance doesn't deserve to win anything. Mbappe has been out-of-form recently as well which makes them even more inconsistent.

But of course they can't rely on only him. Sometimes we see a good team play but mostly we don't. Luis Enrique needs to do everything he can to improve this side of the team. When Mbappe leaves the team I don't know what they will do. Of course they can technically play strongly as long as they make a good improvement in team play. But can they do this? I don't know if this is related to Luis Enrique or the management of the team as a whole.

When a team experiences bad results and usually, they will also blame or criticize the coach. But I was also quite surprised, that when PSG got bad results, in reality, there didn't seem to be much criticism of Luis Enrique and instead they criticized Mbappe and/or still associated with Messi and Neymar who left. So yes, at this moment I personally conclude that Luis Enrique does not have good abilities and/or does not have the right plan to recover PSG quickly this season. If that happens, then of course PSG will find it difficult to win any titles and trophies this season.

@emrecemsan

I personally do not like how the authority is managing PSG. I also do not like the authority of the country France, as well, but that's another story.

Anyway, the PSG authority thought that they could do anything with money. But obviously, that is not true. I don't know what they deserve to be honest. But one thing I will say that they are definitely did not deserve to do well with the squad where Mbappé had authority over other players. They have made a lot of mistakes. But bringing in the new coach was a step in the right direction. Now let's see if the coach Luis Enrique can actually make things better. But it will definitely take a lot of time. Patience is something that PSG does not have which they should.

Monaco and Nice are continuing from where they left on one hand. Especially Monaco had a tough game on paper. The odds were also proving that. Reims have had a really good run so far. Since the day Will Still started to manage this team there is a huge improvement. They are continuing on this way this season too.

However Monaco finished the job early in the second half already unlike my expectations. They got 3-0 ahead I mean and Reims couldn't answer properly. Balogun also scored against his old team. He was doing really amazing with Reims previously so I'm curious what he will do for Monaco this season.

In fact, Lens has been able to perform consistently for several seasons. and the peak was probably last season because they almost beat PSG in the race for the trophy.
what happened this season seems to have really changed Lens' game and performance. The impact on the team is very bad, and all they can do is stay in Ligue 1 next season. because competing at the top of the standings will be very difficult for Lens this season. they need determination and a lot of improvement to rise.
