Ligue 1 2018/19

Payet is probably my favourite player in the world after Cazorla. Sure it was against Toulouse, but he was just magical once again. I wish he stayed longer in the EPL so his name would've been able to spread more in the public media.

Clement Grenier with a very nice goal in his Rennes debut.
Too bad injuries have derailed his promising career.
Hopefully he is injury-free this season. The talent is there.

To think Montreal almost got him, but instead he opted to give himself a shot at Guingamp. Always a fun player to watch when healthy.

That Angers/Nimes match looked insane.

 

[Evilo]

Yeah I watched Lille Rennes tonight, but the scoreline was crazy in that Angers Nimes game.
Nimes down a man at the 70th, they're down 3-2, get back to 3-3 at the 84th and score another at the 86th.
Crazy.

PSG playing 3 kids from the academy tonight.
Nkunku with the assist for Neymar's opening goal.

Boring game.

 

[Savi]

Is the kid at LB now part of the first team or just an emergency callup? I really liked him in the Supercup

 

[Evilo]

As of now, he's first team. but PSG has been rumored to buy a LB but also selling Kurzawa.
I frankly have no idea right now.

Watched Monaco/Nantes and this is going to be a pretty awful year for Ligue 1. It was a grudge match that resembled more rugby than football.

Then Monaco put on Falcao and Monaco scored three straight goals, lol. I always though that Lopes was a solid player, but holy **** he must've had a starting role in The Hobbit trilogy (looks so short out there even though he's 1.74m).

 

[Evilo]

Tim Weah and Moussa Diaby on the pitch now ! And they combine with a nice play and Weah hits the post !

 

[Evilo]

PSG now has 6 players from the academy on the pitch, including 5 born 97 or after.

 

[Live in the Now]

WEAH GOAL!

 

[ecemleafs]

weah just scored by winning a challenge off the keeper and having it go straight into the goal lol

 

[Evilo]

Weah scores on an awful mistake, but he'll take it.

Nice to see George's son scoring at Parc des Princes !

 

[Live in the Now]

Tuchel seems to really love youngsters. That they're American makes it even better.

 

[Evilo]

One of them

 

[ecemleafs]

i like that weah is playing as a number 9. i think hes got more potential there than in a wide forward role.

[Power Man]

Atal is going to be good

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

One of them

I think he was referring to Pulisic from Tuchel's time at Dortmund.

 

[Milos Krasic]

Two horrific errors from Caen’s keeper.

 

[Evilo]

Yeah hopefully Caen's starter comes back soon.

So Kurzawa is leaving for sure? Weird to see him fallen so low, considering how good he was offensively barely a year ago. I can understand Nsoki after the preseason games, but picking that another youngster before Kurzawa is telling. Kind of sad if PSG buys another big name offensive midfielder and Nkunku isn't given a full season's run in the team.

They also played with two CB's, so with Kheler arriving, not sure if they can keep all of them happy. Although last season the 3 CB's not given enough rest did hurt PSG in the CL

 

[gary69]

Nice didn't look good, though they've had a lot of personnel changes since their top season and CL run.

I know he lost his place in the starting lineup in the last season, but Malang Sarr did look good in the youth Euros this summer. And based on this match, I'd rather have him in the line-up than either Dante or that other guy. If he's not going to start for Nice, he needs to go (on loan) to some team where will start regularly.
