can understand that in fact PSG is always the holder of the league 1 title but not every season because you know that every season there will be changes in players and this has a big influence on a team performance, even just imagine how Mbappe will leave PSG and who are the PSG players? can replace his position while none of the PSG players have talent like Mbappe. previously, it was reported that Gancalo Ramos had been borrowed from another team to ensure whether his performance could be on par with Mbappe, if indeed he could be Mbappe replacement. PSG would let go of their flagship player and fill in with Gancalo Ramos. but since Gancalo arrival at PSG I see that he has not contributed much to provide a score equal to Mbappe, but yesterday when he hosted Marseille at PSG home ground, Gancalo managed to show his talent to get 2 scores at once and Mbappe not provide any score here.

I conclude that PSG will probably still be the holders of the League 1 title this season but PSG will lose Mbappe in the next season. I think Enrique must be ready in this situation.

Nice to see PSG having a good performance. The dominant performance that we expect to see from them. This was a match which did look like PSG having their authority maintained throughout the whole match.

A lot of people are talking about Mbappé. But I think now PSG should start thinking about life without him. PSG is not going to go very far if they still think that Mbappé is going to stay after this season. Actually, I think he might leave before the season ends. Because Real Madrid is in trouble and looking for a striker right now. Mbappé is probably the first thing Real Madrid is going to do after the transfer window opens.

PSG started to play a pretty good and impressive game, even Marseille had difficulty controlling the ball. Statistically, Paris Saint-Germain controlled 77% of ball possession, 15 shots, 5 shots on target, 2 big opportunities, 4 goals were scored, 1 of which was through a counter-attack. In this match, the system that Enrique implemented worked very well. Usually, this Spanish coach always applies a 4-3-3 pattern. However, in this match, he applied a different system to 3-4-3. PSG's midfield players, synergize with their squad's front line players.
Hakimi's opening goal was the start of other goals. 1 goal was scored by Kolo Muani, 2 goals by Goncalo Ramos. Unfortunately, this victory came at a heavy price due to Mbappe's injury. Several rumors that cannot be claimed to be true say that Mbappe will be absent from the match against Newcastle. However, according to Enrique, Mbappe's injury was not serious.

Apart from all that, Marseille played a bad match. they experienced their first defeat in Lique 1 by being slaughtered by PSG. Next, Jacques Abardonado has a tough job to bring his team back to its best performance, especially raising the team's mentality first. By the way, if Mbappe has to miss some of his matches. Enrique must maximize his team's squad without him. If so, Enrique could play Goncalo Ramos on the wing rather than as a center forward. At least, in yesterday's match the rotation and combination between Goncalo and Randal Kolo Muani went quite well.

PSG still crushed Marseille without Kylian Mbappe. He left the field early due to injury in the 32nd minute. The other PSG players are still strong enough to overwhelm Marseille. Goncalo Ramos, Mbappe's replacement, filled the void perfectly. As for Marseille, interim coach Jacques Abardonado, after 4 days of appointment. This was a shock to him.
This victory helped PSG climb to 3rd place on the Ligue 1 rankings. However, it wasn't a perfect night for the home team as their star striker, Kylian Mbappe, limped off the field with an ankle injury. I'm afraid he's showing the same signs as Neymar before. The season is preparing to climax if Mbappé's damage continues. It's a loss for PSG and his career.

Yes, for us from the outside it all looks like a random event, but for the French fans it is a gift. I remember how in those days when I actively went to the local stadium to watch the games of a football club from my city, there was a season when this club took 6th place (and got into the Eurocups) although usually they were at the bottom or even in the second league. After the first half of the season they were in 3rd place. It was incredible - there was a big stir in the city and everyone was talking about it. Eh, I wonder if I remember these times because they were really good or because it was my youth 

Paris Saint-Germain FC's new signings have fully adapted to the team. Ousmane Dembélé and Kolo Mouani were very effective in this match. Achraf Hakimi was very good as usual. He scored a free-kick goal but also gave a lot of support to the attackers. Everything was positive for Paris Saint-Germain FC in this match. They only had one problem. Mbappe got injured in this match. I hope he doesn't have a serious injury. Gonçalo Ramos, who came off the bench to replace him, scored two goals, but no one can replace Mbappe. He is a very important player for Paris Saint-Germain FC.

You will never know the potential of a player until he is given the platform to perform. The injury of Mbappe allowed Ramos to feature and make a mark in the game. We don't know how long the injury will last but this brace by Ramos will give the 22-year-old striker to prove his worth in the absence of Mbappe. But the Frenchman will be missed based on the fact that he is a special player.  I wish him a speedy recovery.

What I saw yesterday was a perfect attacking team even after the removal of Mbappe. Ousmane Dembele was very active and controlled the midfield while the strength and speed of Kolo Muani paved the way for the fourth goal.  This win will be a motivation to PSG who won only two of their first five games in the French League. Achraf Hakimi won the player of the match and it is obvious he deserves it. He scored a wonderful free kick and was solid throughout the games. This win and their last win in the Champions League against Dortmund might be the boost they need to defend the league title.

It so sad Mbappe couldn't continue the game to assist his teammates to score more goals and enjoy the victory maybe they would had scored  more goals if he were still present in his team, what Enrique did was a very good gesture it shows he's got love and support for his players, especially Mbappe who's their key player and i just hope the injury isn't very severe and he'll be fit to feature in their next Champions league match against Newcastle.

 Cleremont Foot is a very small team, I think the weakest so far this season therefore it would be very easy for PSG to beat them even without Mbappe's presence atleast it would give Mbappe time rest and be fit against Newcastle, that's if the injury he sustained is not very severe, because it would be bad for the team as Mbappe has an important role to play in PSG this season.

It wouldn't be wrong if I was surprised by Lyon's achievements this season because their achievements were beyond the expectations of many football fans. Maybe in the past people knew Lyon not because they often watched Ligue 1 but because people knew Lyon because of their performance when facing other elite European teams in the biggest tournaments like the UCL which was able to make things difficult every time they faced them, but now Lyon has been absent for several seasons in the UCL.

Other names such as Lens, Lorient may even sound like unfamiliar names to fans and me because there are only four familiar Ligue 1 teams, namely Lyon, PSG, Marseille and AS Monaco. Lyon's performance is now really in a bad condition that needs to be saved.

This was just the performance I was hoping to see from PSG in the Ligue 1.    I mean they have been weak as for team play in league matches until this one. It looks like the Champions League match against Dortmund ignited the fire for the team. Mbappe didn't make any contribution to the goals against Marseille although the final score was 4-0. But the good team play was enough to destroy their opponent. This is just the thing PSG need to maintain from now on.

Ramos (2 goals) and Kolo Muani (1 goal, 1 assist) were both great here. This is crucial news for PSG considering the expectations from these players.

Reading the news too and what Enrique did to protect Mbappe who already looked in pain, I think it was the right decision for him to have time to recover because in about 10 days there will be a match that is no less important in the Champions League.
Luckily, the fact that Mbappe had to be replaced did not have a bad impact on PSG's game, because a few minutes after Mbappe was replaced, PSG managed to score the next goal to put them ahead more, with this result PSG returned to a good trend to defend their title again.
A few days before playing in the Champions League, PSG will only face Cleremont who are at the bottom so they will still continue this winning trend and can focus a little more on the match against Newcastle.

Monaco will continue to be more consistent and try to maintain their performance until the end of the season, because in Ligue1 there are only three places for the UCL zone and I think Monaco will be aiming for one of them this season even though PSG, Nice and Brest still look quite consistent in six matches at the start of this season.

It won't be easy to make the front line better when the season is going on like now and everyone can see how Lens are still struggling at the bottom of the rankings. So Haise has quite a tough task this season and will try to keep his team from being relegated at the end of this season, because that is something the players and coaches need to fight for this season.

4-0 is decent scores for PSG considering their performance were quite impressive yesterday and a bit surprised because without Mbappe PSG has able to win with big scores and indeed Goncalo Ramos who played as the replacement of Mbappe can able to performing well and after spend 7 matches without scores goals finally Ramos can make his goals for PSG and help PSG to collect 3 points
Lens finally has able to ended their poor results yesterday that playing at home Lens was pressing Toulouse defensive lines since the beginning of first half and i can see they were very dominate the match with gets 27 total of shots and actually the scores could be more than 2-1 but luckily Toulouse has Guillaume Restes as their goalkeeper because during the match i can see he did at least 3 fantastic safe

So far I have not heard anything new about Mbappe either, that is a big shock. Kolo Muani will have to play much better if he has to compensate him. That Paris will win, many bet on it and it happened just the same. In the game Brest vs Lyon I thought Lyon could finally win a game and get a better place in the league... that was wrong. Shortly before the end Brest has made the 1:0. They are now 2 points ahead of Paris, which is not much. The next matchday will be interesting, Brest (1) will play against Nice (2) and Paris (3) will play against Clermont Foot (18).

I think it's still very early to ascertain the how long clubs like Brest and Nice will continue to remain at the top of the league table. There's every possiblity that either of them might become a strong contender for the French Ligue 1 title this season.
Paris Saint Germaine of a truth possess a squad that's just too good in terms of quality when compared to the rest of the clubs in the league but that doesn't mean that they're automatic candidates to retain the league. They will have to consistently win their matches to take up the first position in the league table.

On the other hand, PSG achieved an extraordinary victory, but we are still waiting to see whether Mbappe injury will be long enough or not. Considering the risks in the future will be quite detrimental. PSG's schedule in League 1 and UCL needs to be balanced, against Clermont Foot there is no problem if they use other players, but in preparations against Newcastle Mbappe contribution is really needed.

Hopefully Mbappe can really recover and the decision Enrique took to replace Mbappe was the right one and not leave him on the field in a worrying condition. In my opinion, in that match Marseille did not have many choices in launching attacks, Marseille only fired 6 shots without anyone threatening the goalkeeper's defense. It could be said that Marseille was very disappointed with this result.

Indeed, PSG big win over Marseille had to be paid dearly due to the injury to star striker Kylian Mbappe. Although there is no further information about how serious Mbappe injury is, it seems that Mbappe injury is not too dangerous because after the match, coach Luis Enrique said that Mbappe's substitution was just to ensure he didn't suffer a serious injury.

The home match was quite good for PSG and they should have won because if they lose in this match then in the pursuit of points to move up the rankings it will be even more difficult to catch up and so far PSG progress is starting to be seen little by little but we I don't know whether developments like this will continue until the season is over or in the future they will experience a decline in performance.

In the next match PSG will host Clermont which is the bottom team so PSG might have a bigger chance of winning and for Clermont itself if they don't recover they will definitely experience relegation this season.

In the Champions League PSG will meet Newcastle in the 2nd group phase match which will take place early next month.
If PSG can still play as well as before when they beat Dortmund then PSG can also win in this match.
However the problem is that Mbappe is injured and we don't know whether he can play against Newcastle or not.

Enrique commented on the substitute of Mbappe, he said that he injured his ankle, nothing serious, he will quickly return to the game, but Mbappe was in pain so it was reasonable to replace him.

The match with Marseille was played very well, there was a good game in attack and an excellent game in defense, Marseille could not even hit the PSG goal once, and the percentage of ball possession was also impressive. I'm not a very big fan of PSG, but I really like Enrique, and it seems to me that he is gradually starting to improve the game of the team.
