LIGUE 1
Entretaining and unpredictable have the words to
describe Ligue 1, a league that was expected to be dominated by PSG again, but
Emery has been struggling and seeing teams like Monaco and Nice taking
advantage of that and fighting for the top spot. PSG has work to do to confirm
their status but it seems it will be tough for them.
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN
.
It hasn’t been a great start for Unay Emery in France. The Spanish inherited a
team that needed strong motivation for the league, after the easy wins from
last season, but without Ibra that seems to be a harder task and PSG sits only
in third spot. They were defeated again, at Toulouse, but took advantage of
their slip to get back in the podium, but PSG is still very away from their
potential. Di María and the defensive problems have been a big issue and if
things don’t get better soon Emery might face some backlash.
AS MONACO
Thomas Lemar and Bernardo Silva. Two young prospects that have been
the highlight of the good start of season that Monaco has been having. Jardim
is known to give his young players all the freedom, and this two are ones to
making the most of the chance. Falcao will never get back properly to fitness,
you feel, but when is on the pitch he attracts the attention and has allowed
Monaco to prosper, with a big blip at Nice that took the lead of the league
from them.
NICE
Did Mario Balotelli finally found his
home? Inspired by Ibrahimovic, a league where he can do his football and a club
that maybe will put up with some of his antics if he produces on the pitch,
like he knows. So far, the return is five goals in three games and only good
news coming from this relation. The win against Monaco, a team known for their
defensive consistency, showed that Nice will try and fight for Champions League
football. And with PSG lacking consistency, maybe more.
