From now on one of the things I'm curious about the most is what Lens will do next season. I mean especially in the Champions League.  Smiley  Because Lens appeared in the Champions League only twice in their history - one was in 1990s and the other one was in 2000s. It has been a long time so we can call them inexperienced there.

They need to keep their most valuable players in the team above all else. Fofana and Openda are the names who are really important to the team now. Openda's 21-goal contribution was a big factor helping them reach the Champions League group stage. Moreover they had better reinforce the weakest areas with the right transfers to be ready.

Then maybe they can do something worth watching there and they can even keep being consistent in the Ligue 1 also.
During this season, even though Lens failed to win Ligue 1, Lens managed to become Runner up and the only club in Ligue 1 that competed with PSG. If you look at their last 5 matches, Lens managed to clean sweeps with successive wins without defeat and that indicates that their club is worthy. get into the UCL next season plus they also have the potential to challenge PSG again next season if they keep all the current players and also the coaching manager.

I admit betting for Lens so far I often get wins as well as profits so it doesn't disappoint me while betting in Ligue 1 because so far Lens has performed very well with their best players.
Indeed, Lens is rarely glanced at this season and I was really surprised that their performance was able to beat Marseille and Monaco this season. Lens were promoted to ligue 1 in the 20/21 season and they only needed two seasons to be able to compete at the top of the standings with PSG. Lens' achievements are indeed extraordinary and I think they will surprise Ligue 1 again next season and could even shift PSG from the throne for many seasons. But of all that, it is consistency that will be the key to success and I totally agree with what you said as long as they can maintain their squad then Lens can have a chance to become the next Ligue 1 champion.
