Ligue 1

more Nermans

Forbid shit country who cant train youngsters to steal ours like england

>>77449218
Honestly though, for a player like Neymar who is well known everywhere in the world, he just went to a league that barely anyone watches. We need to make this league far more interesting

>>77449195

You can't. It will always be shit

>>77449195
>Ligue 1 Conforama
APOLOGIZE

>>77449257
It wasn't always shit though, it used to have former world-class clubs like Marseille and Lyon. Idk wtf happened to those though, they're p shit now. Now there's Nice too.

>>77449242
Nobody watched Ligue 1 Conforama because there wasn't enough Nermans.
My post looks ironic but in reality, Ligue 1 Conforama wasn't really attractive because it lacked a world star player.
Nerman is a world star player, but also a genius. I truly think PSG can bring home the UCL this season, and thus increase the prestige of Ligue 1 Conforama.
Speaking about the quality of the league, if Mbappé stays, it will be really, really interesting.

>>77449297
Do you believe that one world-class player like him will actually make the whole league more popular? I kinda hope that Ligue 1 would become more known, since it has some good teams and some teams that have been good at some point.

>>77449297
Bringing Nerman is a (good) Qatari move
the other 19 clubs can't even hold on to their best french player, so that's the major problem tbqh

>>77449290
Lyon are good now, absolute Pleb

>>77449338
I guess


BUT IT COULD BE BETTER

some more arabian money i guess

>>77449338
These few years are going be pretty hard tho, they are kinda rebuilding

>>77449195
do nothing, it's getting better. sugar daddies are investing a lot now

>>77449363
I dunno why, but I've always wanted to see Marseille come back to the top. I guess it's not very likely, I would really want to see it happen.

>>77449363
They have a good crop of youth players

>>77449376
they can do somethin this season, at least finishin 3rd is not impossible

>>77449385
Good to hear, maybe I'll actually be watching some of their games.

>>77449377
For sure, it's the best football academy in France.
It just might take some time after they sold Lacaz, Tolisso and long time C, Gonalon

>>77449376
As for Marseille, I have mixed feelings for now tbqh, not sure what their future plan is, because for now they signed lots of "old" players

>>77449321
Yes I truly think it's good for the whole Ligue. For example now Caen will be full vs. PSG, people will come for other games, etc.
And it will encourage people to watch the Ligue, its TV rights will go up, trickling down on small clubs. That's why the La Liga Santander has money, because of Messi and Ronaldo
>>77449327
If Nerman delivers, wins an UCL, it will bring money for all the clubs. Amiens has 20m € budget but when TV rights are more expensive they could double that.

>>77449410
Yeah like Evra and Payet, they're not gonna be very good for very long. Maybe just a couple of seasons now, if that.

>>77449410
hmmm old players are essential, there must be every generations in a team to be good

>>77449424
Oh yeah true, fans from other towns will be happy to see a superstar like Neymar play against their clubs.

I know I'll be watching the league more now for sure.

>>77449425
Upfront, they are pretty stacked (Germain 10/10 imo)
Defense is kinda old (+Rami), slow so hope they improve this area soon

>>77449438
Yeah when PSG plays away most of the stadium are full unlike less popular games

>>77449338
>Lyon with Pep Genesio
>Good

>>77449434
I have nothing against "old" players, on the contrary, but not too much

>>77449438
but i will unironically go to see my local team get destroy by nerman and i want this to happen

>I truly think PSG can bring home the UCL this season.

>>77449474
Bow the fuck down to the NERMANATOR burger

>>77449195

All the teams look the same, filled with Africans that you can't tell the difference between.

>>77449474
They would have gone through if not for they're shitty Full Backs last year

I'm looking at you Kurzawa

>>77449468
Old players are good, but they're not around for long. I think the old players Marseille have now are good for them.

>>77449474
Maybe not this season, but I'm 100% sure PSG starts to deliver soon in Europe too. They are going to win the French league for sure, no way Monaco will win it this season, since most of their players have been bought.

>>77449493
Why do you keep buying them though?

for me, it's Dijon FCO

>>77449290
>wtf happened to those though

I'll tell you what happened :
All the leagues bought our best players because the taxes are insane in France. Only PSG can afford with the same economical model like English and Spanish club.
Also, Spanish league built their league with Credits and debts. In France it's forbidden.

>>77449513
That's a bit shitty desu, I hope some of the french clubs can manage to become bigger somehow and compete

>>77449513
This

>>77449472
psg unironically made you into cuckoldry

>>77449498
>most

The only important one who left is Silva. Mendy and Bakayoko are overrated and replaceable, only Bonglish clubs are mad enough to spend 100 fucking millions to buy them.
They kept MBarp, Lemar, Falcao, Glick, they'll be strong again this season.

>>77449550
i'm just realistic.

>>77449558
i can be ok for Bakayoko but not Mendy

>>77449550
kek

french people will be watching psg play their team

>yes mister nerman destroy my club

>>77449558
I hope so, Monaco was a really fun team to watch last season in CL. They played very nice football.

>>77449570
you should watch Nice too.

>>77449558
Bakayoko, definitely. The other two ? Hard to replace desu

>>77449327
Ligue 1 (and France) has good players in its own, but the problem is that they go in England, Italy or Spain when they get great (Benzema, Pogba, Lloris, Mendy, Giroud, Lacazette, they all did this).

With PSG (and Monaco) moves bringing players from outside, It becomes more balanced and we have talents here. Even if they come for a year and go a year after. And sometimes, a player is bought in France, but for big amounts of money reinvested

The main mistake Lyon did in the 2000 was to buy almost all their players from Ligue 1 for low prices. No concurrency so no money and no level, even with one of the best teams of the last decade.

>>77449558
Mbappé and Lemar will leave next week m8.

>>77449584
Oh yeah the fact that they have Balotelli is a reason enough for me to watch them

>>77449602
Lmao, please dont tell me Lemar is going to Arsenal, after they were rejected about a thousand times

If Mbappe leaves though, it's a shame. I think he should stay in Monaco for at least one or two more seasons.

>>77449513
>All the leagues bought our best players because the taxes are insane in France.


Keep telling yourself that.

The main reason isnt the money, not everyone is a gold digger. They leave because : the other leagues are better (the improved paycheck is just a bonus), and we have that weird mentality where if you dont leave L1 at some point, you will always be an underachiever.

And yeah, its better to play in Southampton or whatever on a great pitch with a full stadium than in Lyon in an empty brand new arena.

>>77449595
Agreed. Only a few clubs can make significant investment.
I do hope more moves are made to to make the smaller club profit (like the Monaco-Rennes deal for Diakhaby?)

>>77449570
It's more like "I come to watch what can my team do against an ogre" with the hope that the ogre becomes Goliath.

>>77449624
I agree, Mbappé must learn and gain more experience. He's only 18, he can't wrestle with guys like Aguero, Di Maria or Benzema.

The boy is smart, he knows all that. And the next year he will be worth 200M€ if he does the same season.

More like Mbappé will have a pay raise next week. There is no reason yet to quit. He's comfy at his club, will play against Nerman, can easily prove himself against small teams and score plenty, will play the UCL, while at Madrid he knows he's likely to be perma-benched.
And it's a season before a WC, that means he can't take too much risks

>>77449677
>emptyhad
>emptyrates

>>77449670
>>77449698

These. If he moves to fuckin Real Madrid this transfer window, he will be benched for sure. Because of that, he might end up in the bench in the World Cup aswell. If he stays in Monaco and keeps doing what he is doing, he will could make it in the starting 11 in the world cup. Or that's what I believe, it might sound like too much.

>>77449712
afaik Real Madrid almost never gives their chances to very young players. It could be Mbappé or whoever with insane skill, they always prefer experienced and proven 25+ years old players.
Mbappé obviously knows this, that's why he probably will stay at least this season.

reminder that Olympique Marseille (the club from one of the shittiest cities in the EU) is STILL to this day the only French club to have ever won the Champions League

explain yourselves, Frenchies

>>77449779
Marseille is truly the greatest team

>>77449779
France has less money to invest in football and higher taxes, so all our great youngster leave championship to help the ones from spain italy england and germany, there were more french players last years in CL team squads than any other country.

>>77449792
with Macron you now finally have a pro-business president, so maybe he will bring down your tax rates to a civilized level

>>77449801
Oh you must feel good about that one Hans, good fucking one

i don't think it was ironic or intended to be funny

I'm serious

pls don't tell me you fell for the socialist Hollande or Le Pen meme

>>77449815
i think your league needs a nerman too


so does ours desu

>>77449822
>>77449818
I don't buy the R banker either

>>77449815
O N E T E A M

>>77449779
bernard tapie was their president, he's known to bribe everybody.

>>77450222
Marseille has a new owner now though, I think. Some American guy who wasn't very liked idk

>>77450482
Frank McCourt, the guy who managed to bankrupt the Dodgers. In MLB, the second highest revenue sports league in the world.
Yeah, he's that bad.

>>77450482
LA Dodgers owner, not a good record.
I think the more important thing now is the management. They went really bad under Labrune. He sold so many good players for basically nothing

Marseille has always been unmanageable. This club and city are mafia-ridden permashitstorms.

The only one who ever successed at managing them did so because he was himself a master-crook.

So yeah, every now and then they can have a good year, but it never lasts as everything is built on sand.

>>77450669
This.
Mafia influence is indeed huge
