The news between mbappe and liverpool have become trending topic again. Marco Kirdemir already revealed that if liverpool able to buy mbappe for €300m which is a crazy amount of money. I hope that this news was not true.
Liverpool must think for hundreds of times before trying to buy mbappe with such price. Im still waiting for further confirmation regarding this news but it seems like for me if this news was actually fake.
Nunez has become the most expensive transfer by liverpool so far. Will liverpool do something crazy like arsenal?  Cheesy
This rumor is very interesting to be discussed.
I don't think the problem is the price but whether Mbappe is willing to play in the Europa League next season? If Mbappe is willing to go down a level then I don't think price is an issue as long as they or Liverpool are able and willing to spend that kind of money. So yes, even though it is a true rumor but still, I personally don't believe Mbappe will accept Liverpool's offer. Because at this moment it seems that Mbappe is not prioritizing money, because at PSG Mbappe also has a large income. So yes, at this moment Mbappe should have chosen a team that has a big chance to dominate the domestic league and also the Champions League.

No man. 300 million is genuinely too much for one player. And of course, there is always an underlying fear that he might not be able to perform as well as his shirt when he actually does come into the team. And why get him for 300 million when in the next season he is going to be a free transfer? Just give him a huge amount of money as a salary then.

But honestly, I don’t think this is actually real news. I don’t think any club is actually going to pay 300 million for him, especially when he's going to be a free agent in the next season.  But if Liverpool is offering that type of money, which is very unlikely, because I don’t think I have seen Liverpool offering that type of money for any player in recent times, I think PSG should sell him and also Mbappé should join Liverpool.


Does it mean that Liverpool's problem all lies in the attacking arms of the team? Don't you think Darwin Nunez was doing exceptionally great before h was brought at a high amount,  what is happening now?  Liverpool doesn't have to bring in Mbappe before solving their problem of goal-scoring instability. With one Central attacker, They only need more creative central midfielders that can actively support the available wingers which did brilliantly well last season. Spending such an amount to bring in mbape to me is a waste of resources. halve of That money can solve Liverpool's problem without Mbape

It has been discuss before and why PSG doesn't choose Mourinho as new manager because they know Mourinho pattern is the manager with defensive style and his tactic was so bored and not entertain many people so that's why although probably Mourinho will considering the offers from PSG if they choose them but PSG owner doesn't want to see this team will play with parked bus for each matches

There was no more name for PSG manager unless Luis Enrique this because PSG have made a choice for this coach and they only want Enrique and reported PSG will announce him to the public in the near future but Enrique will faced the challenge whether Enrique can able to control Mbappe or not but Neymar has been cooperate with Enrique before while at Barcelona and maybe under him Neymar can able to find his shape again
I agree that his tactic could be a bit boring but it also shows that he brings in the success with him almost everywhere he goes as well. Remember this guy went as high as Real Madrid and won like 2-3 ucl titles too if I am not mistaken overall as well. So all in all, I would highly suggest him as the next PSG manager since he would maybe make them play a boring system and it would not be fun to watch, but when you win games and get titles then the boring part doesn't matter.

Right now, PSG tries to play too much forward because they know Mbappe can be trusted to score, but that allows them to be not that great when it comes down to creating chances. With a park the bus system they could just take the other team on at their own half and then when they get the ball just kick it ahead to Mbappe for a counter attack chance, which he can score easily.
In other conditions, I saw some news, even if it had been quite a long time, actually saying that Mou was not too interested in joining PSG either.
As you said, the conditions of the scheme that Mou does will not really suit Madrid because we know he is one of the coaches with the most eccentric schemes ever, although sometimes it is also profitable for his club but for PSG at the moment it seems that the adjustments are too much if he currently resonates.
Mourinho is also actually one of the good coaches, it's just that it can be said to be an old story because as time goes by of course we know he has decreased a little for now.

As for PSG, who do play too much in attack, I think this is one of their ways to show dominance, especially with the big names they have in attack, even though sometimes this backfires for them. But by changing the scheme sporadically with full offensive to full defensive according to Mourinho's scheme if he goes to PSG this can also make them a little shaky.

Some people will argue that Mourinho is a better option but I will not want Mourinho in my team at this point in his career. Actually, at no point in Mourinho's career would I have loved him at my club.
He's too defensive. I know he's sticking to what works for him and that is cool, but I just do not enjoy that pattern of football. PSG were lucky they did not sign him because they wouldn't have loved it later on.
I hope Enrique can replicate his Barcelona performance at PSG and be a success for PSG.

Mourinho, one of the coaches I don't like. I don't mean personally, but the system he employs and his tactics. he always uses monotonous football tactics, that's why I don't like the system he applies. as football lovers, we want an interesting show, especially in the modern era of football. however, several times I have seen, Jose Mourinho also uses a formation pattern with an offensive system. unfortunately when in crucial matches, he always uses his flagship system, namely the bus parking formation. maybe that's why, if Mourinho failed to become head coach at PSG. after all, some of the newspapers I read, Jose Mourinho is very comfortable with AS Roma.

On the other hand, PSG has appointed a coach from Spain Luis Enrique. but it seems that Luis Enrique's arrival as PSG manager has been delayed. L'Equipe report that Enrique's arrival in the dugout at Paris Saint-Germain will not be made official until July. the delay is allegedly because Galtier has not officially left PSG. but if we talk about Luis Enrique. at least he has the requirements that fulfill PSG's desire to bring his new team as targeted, namely, the Champions League Trophy. so, let's see if Enrique can bring PSG much better. or,...
well let's see what Enrique will do with his new team.

That's probably PSG's biggest problem. They spend huge amounts of money on top players. They probably have the best squad of any other European club. But they can't compete well in European cups. Ligue 1 is not a good league like England, Italy or Spain. But even this season PSG have hardly managed to take the top spot. I don't even know what could help them.
I think what can help PSG and improve their mentality to be stronger in European cups is the strategy of their own coach. Because it will be very detrimental if PSG are not able to perform well in European cups with the many star players they have, even though PSG are still able to win Ligue 1 which is not on par with the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A. So what PSG needs now is a coach. reliable besides the young players who are great in their respective lines.
Despite PSG having enough good players, they have not had any significant success in the Champions League. They have only played in the Champions League final once but in that final they lost against Bayern Munich. But then they got several world famous players in their team only to win a Champions League trophy but only due to lack of a competent manager they could not do well in the Champions League last season. If PSG had the kind of players they had last season with a skilled manager like Pep Guardiola, PSG's dream would have been fulfilled by now, that is, they could have won the Champions League trophy. But many stars have left PSG during this period and more stars are likely to leave now even if a good quality manager is appointed it is still difficult to achieve success.

Since being left by Sergio Ramos at the end of last season, the PSG center back position has become vacant and therefore PSG is expected to be able to find a replacement for next season's competition. Today it is reported that PSG have reached an agreement with Lucas Hernandez from Bayern Munich and this has been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano. I think Lucas Fernandez is a tough defender and there is no doubt about his quality. For a transfer fee around 50 million euros and I think that price is still quite affordable for PSG. Now it's just a matter of waiting for the official announcement from PSG and I think this time PSG will try to start building a new squad for the coming season by bringing in a few more players.

I don’t know what lineup they will play in, but even now it’s clear that they have almost completely changed the entire midfield. If they manage to get rid of Neymar, then the process will be almost complete and then only point reinforcements will be needed. I'm surprised, but it looks like PSG are making reasonable changes, rejuvenating the squad, have they abandoned their previous strategy and now they will "play for the long haul"?

I understand that Ramos left after a huge pay and excited season at PSG, But i do not think Lucas Hernandez is a replacement for Ramos. To my understanding, Lucas Hernandez is a left back, if we factor in his role in France world cup win and also in his debut appearances in Bayern Munich before losing his place to that Canadian LB. Am i right or wrong ?

A new squad will less valuation. PSG is now focusing in efficiency of its squad rather than being crazy wasting so much money for nothing. The two years from PSG was total flops. All of superstars bought by PSG was not able giving huge impact to the club.
Mbappe gonna leave next season and it's now the time for PSG to find his replacement. Enrique has become a new coach for the club and he was trying to make sure if club will not be wasting a lot of money in summer.
Even though PSG owned by the rich owner but it doesn't mean if the club can waste money anytime. The club wil be also dealing with FFP rules but it seems like the recent negotiation from PSG has been releasing the club from sanction caused by violating FFP rules.
I think that if it's now the time for PSG to do better things by signing low valuation players.

Is it possible, Mourinho implemented a defensive strategy because Mourinho realized the club he was currently coaching was a weak team, so Mourinho implemented a defensive strategy. Then, because PSG is a strong team, maybe there is still a chance for Mourinho to change his strategy to be more attacking and more aggressive. If it can be done and the reason is like that, then I think it doesn't hurt to try it even though it is, of course, very risky.
Jose Mourinho is a coach who doesn't care about what people say, whether in the strategy implemented or other things related to him, he only looks at one point ahead, namely victory, no matter how they play. It's quite boring, yes it's boring if a coach only applies strategies that tend to be monotonous, because we also need entertainment when we watch matches, for us it's one of the pleasures and sometimes we don't think about the final result. But it's different from coaches, they will definitely be required to get points in every game, no matter how they do it and sometimes it's not to our liking as football connoisseurs.

It seems PSG is also losing Verratti and their Italian player is the next target for Al Hilal while he is still under contract with PSG and has three years left before his contract to get expired but Verratti is going to play for the Saudi team if they pay enough money to PSG. Al Hilal sent some of the agents to Paris to have negotiate with PSG. While I think Verratti is happy to leave PSG and play in the Arabian teams to earn more.
Verratti has been at PSG for a long time and is finally leaving PSG. Most of the players who played for PSG in the last season will not be seen again in the next season. Because there have already been several changes in PSG and some more changes are coming. Verratti's next club is initially thought to be Al Hilal as a committee of Al Hilal have held talks with PSG.

Luis Enrique is on Paris to finalise the contract with PSG so Mourinho page is turned over this season at least. Regardless of the way Mourinho manage his team and the tactics used, he proved in the past that he could lift trophies whenever he has good and well organised players. These years, he gets consumed and his way of playing football are well studied by his opponents, that's why he gets difficulties to win, besides he doesn't get what he asks for from the team, especially new recruitment.
For Luis Enrique, he has to pick new players to replace the empty spots left by Messi, Ramos... The other teams started their chasing earlier.

but there are rumors that many PSG fans don't like Lucas Hernandez. wouldn't that be bad for Lucas Hernandez's career at PSG in the future. we can see how PSG fans are not nice to Messi when he failed to bring PSG in the Champions League. whatever the reason, hopefully Lucas Hernandez and PSG fans can reconcile soon. however playing with intimidation from the fans themselves will not feel comfortable.

Lens had a really impressive season and finished way ahead of Marseille in the second place. It has been a long time since they joined the Champions League group stage as well. The last time was in the 2002/2003 season. They can't be seen as completely experienced in there but after this long break it is still hard to expect anything from them.

Besides Lens are likely to lose some of their important players recently. Seko Fofana might leave the team as far as I have heard. He was one of the players who played a serious role in Lens' success in the league this season. Lens need to keep the squad quality as decent as possible if they want to finish the group as the third the worst case scenario.
where did you hear this rumour? because as far as I know there are no rumors regarding Seko Fofana leaving Lens.
on the one hand Seko Fofana is the best player Lens has and has talent that coach Lens can rely on for several seasons and I think Lens will not let Seko Fofana leave this team. with his young age Seko Fofana still has a very good chance at Lens and Franck Haise I think Seko Fofana still needs to strengthen in the summer. because in the summer there will be a lot of breakdowns for almost all teams so there is a possibility of an increase in the performance of each team, that's for sure so that Lens will retain Seko Fofana.

Luis Enrique is expected to be announced as the new PSG coach in a short time. Mourinho's name was also among the serious candidates but it looks like they didn't make an offer to him. He was actually open to an offer from PSG as he was looking positive about a move there. But staying at Roma mustn't also be feeling bad for Mourinho as he has been ready to continue working for them. It is difficult to say which one of these coaches would be the best choice for PSG yet.

Both of them have really decent careers so I hope Enrique can be really beneficial for PSG especially in the Champions League. Because PSG want a title winner there to manage the team to achieve the same success. There are just differences in game plan but I assume PSG would work this out at the end of the day.
Yes, we can't compare these coaches as both are having own negatives and positives as well with the best thing both have good achievements and Mourinho is doing good job at AS Roma with now Luis Enrique is good choice for the PSG specially after they are now offloading many superstars and trying to have changes in team as well which will helps new coach for having players of his own choice which will also increase quality and performance which will help them for competing into Ligue 1 after few years things will be completely change, and we will be able to have good fight between top clubs.

But if PSG lost Mbappé and few more top players then surely they can face troubling time as well because this is never been good to lose all top players quickly mostly this creates good mess-up in teams, and they can face problems with this all as well.

Marco Verratti is one of the best midfielders in PSG with very long association which helps them for having good achievements even he still can spend three more years due to his contract, but huge offers can create problems for the PSG with he is already in negotiations and wants to go Saudi Arab for few years which can bring good salary and other bonuses for him Al-Hilal which was looking for the Messi and then Neymar now having third target in PSG and now their agents are in talk hopefully he will also leave this club and have his new journey in next season with things can be more troubling because they need to have some good replacements after losing their first choice many players specially now having trouble time with their main player as well.
