Some people say the same thing that PSG should focus on League 1 instead of the Champions League, but I still hope for a record-breaking surprise like last season when Manchester City won the Champions League trophy.
but I don't know where the problem is, even when the 3 football superstars were at PSG at that time, they continued to fail to reach the top of the UCL. Maybe because at that time there were 3 stars, their focus was even more divided and they were not good at it. Sometimes, solidity in the club when competing is also very decisive. Moreover, the tactics they implemented at that time were not able to defeat their opponents well. And this season, it looks like it will still be difficult for PSG to set a record like Man City. Man City was clear about its strength last season, even this season. Not only do they have the monster Haalland, but they also have many talented and potential players who are solid in every match. They also played very consistently and strongly in all their lines. However, PSG was different. Moreover, if Mbappe leaves PSG, this will greatly reduce the strength of their front line, of course.

It is thought that a change of coach will make Lyon rise from the bottom of the standings, after Laurent Blanc failed to start this season well. The news that Lyon change of coach looks like it will happen soon, Fabrizio Romano reported that the agreement has almost been completed. However, it makes me a little curious, why Lyon didn't choose Gattuso and appoint Fabio Grosso as the new coach.
Maybe Lyon had a special reason for their own choice as to why they didn't choose Gattuso and instead chose Fabio Grosso to serve as Lyon coach this season. I also hope that Lyon can get a revival after this change of coach because Lyon really needs that in order to recover from the downturn at the start of this season.Quote
Indeed, statistically and in terms of coaching experience, Fabio Grosso is better than Gattuso. Even though previously the rumors regarding Gattuso were quite hot, Lyon preferred Fabio Grosso, who is also from Italy.
It could be that because of the coaching experience that Fabio Grosso has, Lyon prefers Fabio Grosso as their coach for this season and thinks that Fabio Grosso is able to provide something very good for the Lyon team this season. So I just hope that Lyon can get a revival for their efforts so that nothing will be in vain for Lyon. September 14, 2023, 03:59:43 PM
sorry about this, I haven't even heard about extending Mbappe contract until 2025 and if this is true it means that PSG doesn't want to lose out on Mbappe departure in the future so they have extended the contract by a year so that Mbappe not be a free agent. and it seems like the very strong PSG management always has a way of creating drama and in the end the team that wants to buy Mbappe will have to spend more money next season. It looks like Real Madrid will have to prepare a large amount of money because I am sure Mbappe will let go if the offer is high.
Real Madrid have made Kylian Mbappe their ultimate priority every summer, Florentino Perez just keen on bringing the outstanding player over to Santiago Bernabeu. PSG President, Nasser Al-Khelaifi have explored the necessary options for these players, but some turned out to be flops while some still consistent and recording brilliant performance. There's absolutely no statement that I've witnessed about the instance where Kylian Mbappe extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman made it clear to the public that he won't renew his contract and he keeps delivering in crucial times for the club.

PSG team signs new contract with Mbappe ? I think its not.what I know from several rumors at the beginning of the opening of the last transfer market, PSG leader Nasser Al Khelafi was told that in the past he did not immediately sign an extension contract with Mbappe, there would be no other choice but to release Mbappe for free in the next season because what I know Currently, Mbappe contract only lasts until next season.
and this is a golden opportunity for Madrid to pressure PSG to release Mbappe and I also keep hearing rumors that Real madrid has a way to get Real Madrid but not sure if it will work for sure it fails to get this PSG star Madrid has other equal options with Mbappe.
The most rumors about Mbappe's club change are about Real Madrid. Many see the possibility of Mbappe signing with Real Madrid. If Mbappe's deal with Real Madrid goes through I think it will be the best transfer of the transfer window.
I think you guys don’t know that Mbappé has already extended his contract with PSG. He will have a contract with them until 2025. And this was done by PSG to make sure that they do not have to let him go for free. But they have also said that he can go to another club in the first transfer market after the contract has been signed as well. So he definitely does not have to stay. It is just that he will not be a free agent to leave for any club. Those who had expectations of him, becoming a free agent, will now have to pay a lot of money if they want to get him.
I think we have been hearing that he will go to Real Madrid since 2017. It does seem like he really does like Money a lot.

After the first 4 rounds in Ligue 1, Lyon only had 1 draw and lost 3 matches, temporarily ranked bottom of the table. Although he is considered a legend of French football, having led Les Bleus and achieved much success in Ligue 1, coach Laurent Blanc could not stay in Lyon even though the season had just begun. Lyon's management lost patience and fired him.
Many reports say that Fabio Grosso will be the new coach of Lyon. The agreements have been completed, Lyon is only waiting for the paperwork to be completed.

Lyon had a bad start to the season this season and this only happens this season, that is the reason the Lyon board of directors fired Laurent Blanc after Lyon failed again on matchday 4 of Ligue 1, then the recruitment of Fabio Grosso to replace Laurent Blanc has been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano from the tweet he made.
Fabio Grosso had a pretty good achievement by making Frosinone successful promotion to Serie A last season, that's probably what the board expected, to work wonders too at Lyon.

PSG offered Mbappe a contract extension but Mbappe rejected the offer I heard such news. If Mbappe has extended his contract with PSG until 2025, why is he fighting with PSG? When Mbappe decided to leave the club as a free agent next season at the start of the transfer market, PSG offered him either to leave PSG before the end of the contract or to extend his contract, but he did neither, he told the club. Given that he will only leave the club as a free agent member. Extending the contract until 2025 means the club will now have to pay a fixed transfer fee to whichever club he moves to. If Mbappe really wanted to leave the club, he should have left the club earlier this season.
Kylian Mbappe have final dedicate not extend contract with PSG will over next season, actually PSG have tried to sell him for Saudi Pro League teams but Mbappe rejected with that offer and want to stay until his contract over. I don't get rumor with Mbappe agree for extending contract until 2025 with PSG, next season will be free agent but PSG have last opportunity in January transfer window for accepting any offer from top European teams want to sign Mbappe, if can't reach deal agreement on next January transfer window actually Mbappe will be free agent next season and easily for joining which one team he wants. Summer window transfer have closed and not chance yet for selling Mbappe in this time except waiting on January window transfer will open again, but difficult for PSG selling Mbappe with expensive transfer fee because his contract left few months later.

Of course the Champions League title is the ultimate goal for PSG. It was the same for Manchester City as well and they finally made it. But their team performance really deserved to win that title. However we haven't been able to watch a good level of team performance by PSG consistently. This is why they are even having big issues to getting close to the finale.
This season PSG are even more unpredictable. They will be much more dependent on Mbappe after Messi and Neymar have left. If we don't see them cutting this dependance as much as possible and focus on team play instead then I won't be expecting them to achieve anything in the Champions League.

PSG couldn't achieve anything in the Champions League when they had Mbappe, Messi and Neymar... I don't think they'll have a chance this season... Probably the main thing for them will be to concentrate on Ligue 1 to become champions again... But now they are already in second place, having won only two games out of four...
I will not blame anyone for PSG's situation at that time but what I see now is that PSG still has a chance to get the champions league trophy but the chance is very small because this club is not yet completely strong in the champions league which only relies on Mbappe and imagine what if PSG lost this player isn't it getting worse?

Hopefully, with the arrival of Fabio Grosso into the Lyon squad, he can bring quite significant changes to the Lyon team this season and enable Lyon to recover from their current very bad position. It is indeed very sad to see that Lyon is in a very bad ranking in the Ligue1 standings now because previously Lyon always provided quite good competition in Ligue1 so that its achievements in Ligue1 were also worthy of being said to be great in the previous season.Many reports say that Fabio Grosso will be the new coach of Lyon. The agreements have been completed, Lyon is only waiting for the paperwork to be completed.
But Fabio Grosso also does not have a great history as a head coach, because so far Fabio Grosso has also never been a head coach in a big team. But indeed, maybe this factor also does not have a bad impact on Fabio Grosso coaching later at Lyon. Because it is possible, Fabio Grosso will be able to make a big change for Lyon performance at this moment, because at least Lyon should also be able to recover quickly because of its currently very low position on the standings. But regarding Lyon performance from season to season, basically Lyon also no longer has good results throughout the season, and in this season Lyon is having worse results.
He had been on frosinone last season. Grosso played a vital role in helping Frosinone achieve promotion into Serie A, and his efforts were greatly appreciated. Frosinone was winning serie b under him. I think that this is the main reason why lyon was taking him as a new coach.
There have been many bad comments regarding him but we must think it even wiser by giving him a chance first before try to judge his performance.
he has not yet coached lyon and how can we judge his performance with lyon at this moment? Grosso is far better than gattuso. I did not like the previous rumor if lyon linked to the gattuso.
It's nice to see grosso becomes a new appointment in this club. Lyon needs to get full points soon.

you are right Despite PSG's squad having plenty of star players, their performances were poor. This is because there was not a good relationship between the players. Mbappe's relationship with Messi and Neymar was not good. Also Mbappe played selfishly. Because of these reasons, the coach failed to bring stability to PSG's performance. But now Luis Enrique is not interested in spending too much money. He first wants to create a good match strategy, and strengthen the bond between the players. Luis Enrique will then look to improve his squad's capabilities as the players bond. Will strengthen the squad by adding star players to the squad.
I would not say that Mbappe - Messi - Neymar performance was poor as they had combined 90 scorer points in Ligue 1. I guess it will be hard to find another attacking trio with 90 scorer points in a season in the league only. That's without Coup de France and without the Champions League. But they have still lost too many games and I think conceded too many goals as a top team.
In the game against Bayern Munich in the Champions League round of 16 PSG almost didn't have a chance despite all the star players. The difference in their performances was unexpected and must have also been disappointing for everyone who was looking forward to PSG delivering some nice games. I guess this season won't be any different.
No offense with League 1 achievements, before the arrival of the names Messi, Neymar and Mbappe Psg as a side has been unstoppable during league games and league cups. They had the finest game understanding and relationship but ego and misunderstanding came all up which we should blame on poor management.
Most places where Psg fans needed the show of talent was during the champions league but they didn't get it with Neymar, Mbappe and finally when Messi came in.
Psg with the trio's lacked a good coach to guide the player's, they had a good fanbase but no creative midfied energy.

It's caused by blanc has been making lyon stay at the bottom of the table. The director is now willing to gamble with it. The club was trying to take action as soon as possible toward blanc. Sacked him has become one of the best choice taken by Lyon. The new coach is also having a chance to bring the club to be better but the thing saddened me if lyon was hiring non professional coach to handle the club.
The new coach is still lack of experience in managing the big club. I thought that if lyon could hire someone who has capability in managing the club.
Many reports say that Fabio Grosso will be the new coach of Lyon. The agreements have been completed, Lyon is only waiting for the paperwork to be completed.
Lyon will be announces him as soon as possible. You may able to see him to be posted by lyon's twitter account in upcoming days. The director is hoping him to bring lyon to the top again.

There is a big difference between City and PSG in the stability of the team, City have kept the squard stable all these years, only making small changes, they had one coach and one strategy. But in PSG everything is constantly changing, every year everything is new, every year a new coach, every year a new strategy, new players, it seems to me that in this case it is simply impossible to win the Champions League.This season PSG are even more unpredictable. They will be much more dependent on Mbappe after Messi and Neymar have left. If we don't see them cutting this dependance as much as possible and focus on team play instead then I won't be expecting them to achieve anything in the Champions League.
I believe that we are going to see something like that for PSG as well, they are getting some new players, this year was a big heavy summer transfer period for them and they did made some changes. I am sensing that it is going to be sort of like that in the end. I know that it takes some time to adjust to that, but the difference is not the squad. The difference is that they have tried many managers and none of them worked so far, whereas City trusted Pep so far and did awesome.

The beginning of the season is indeed one of the times that takes a lot of victims of coaches who have to be fired. The reason is quite basic, when they perform poorly in at least the first 5 matches or even fewer than 5 matches. If we look at the standings, Lyon is the club that has created the fewest goals with only 3 goals they can create, and they are also one of the 2 clubs that have conceded the most up to this week with 10 goals conceded, the same number experienced by Lens. Even if the management is not patient enough, it's only natural because I don't see any improvement in the game.Many reports say that Fabio Grosso will be the new coach of Lyon. The agreements have been completed, Lyon is only waiting for the paperwork to be completed.
Lens is a club that has also not been able to achieve positive results so far, this is a result that is very contrary to what they could record last season. If this continues, then I am worried about their performance in the Champions League, just imagine a club that will play in the biggest competition in Europe is in a situation like we see today. This is a doubt in itself, especially since clubs from Ligue 1 find it difficult to compete in that competition.

Finally, Lyon has found a new coach to replace Laurent Blanc and he is Fabio Grosso. An agreement has been reached between the two parties since last night and now all that remains is to take care of several important documents to complete it. John Textor as one of Lyon's shareholders played an important role in bringing in Fabio Grosso and I think it was quite the right decision for Lyon to choose him.
Currently, Fabio Grosso is managing the Serie A promotion team, namely Frosinone, and perhaps with this consideration, Lyon is very confident in choosing him as the new coach for this season. Fabio Grosso's professional football career is also very good, previously he also played for Inter, Juventus, and now he has returned to Lyon as a coach because in 2007 he also played for Lyon. We hope that the arrival of Fabio Grosso can provide good results for Lyon and can return to a better position in the standings.
Yesterday, Lyon wanted to recruit Genarro Gattuso to be their coach, but after a thorough agreement, Lyon's chose Fabio Grosso's to be their coach.
It seems that Lyon's chose Fabio Grosso's because he has better qualities than Gattuso's , Fabio himself was a players at his club in 2007-2009. Fabio's currently has a tough task and his arrival will probably strengthen Lyon's to avoid the relegations zone. Hopefully Lyon's, with the arrival of a new coach, will change their playing strategy and improve their performance so they can face the league this seasons well

The main problem for PSG to not getting good results in the past was mostly because of the unbalanced team they had, PSG had the best forwards however there was a negative atmosphere in the teams but they had the best forwards and they didn't get good results because in the other positions, and especially in the defensive line they didn't have good player, I think this teams still don't have good defender and you can see this problem when they are going to play in the Champions League against strongest teams.
