This season, Ligue 1 is interesting. It is more competitive, because the point gap among the teams is quite small. And PSG seems not too strong anymore, it is struggling in the top 3. Luis Enrique won't be easy to compete for the title, PSG is no longer in their best shape. Meanwhile other top teams in Ligue 1 is stronger to join the race of the champion.
Verratti already left PSG to Al Arabi. Abdou Diallo also joined Al Arabi. They move to the same team.
We can understand that they leave PSG because Luis Enrique didn't want them in PSG squad. I'm not surprised Verratti left PSG, but I'm confused why he didn't join a big team.
PSG started the season with unsatisfactory results but they slowly recovered to get back on the right track, PSG's dominance is still quite strong in Ligue 1 even though they are currently in third place in the standings. Most recently they also suffered a quite embarrassing defeat to Newcastle in the Champions League and Mbappe couldn't do anything in that match. In fact, if you look at the quality of PSG players, they are far superior because they have experience playing in the Champions League. But Eddie Howe's team was able to send PSG home with a fairly painful defeat where they lost 4-1.
Maybe it was because Verratti didn't get suitable offers from big teams so he decided to go to that league. Not being named on the list of players needed by Luis Enrique made him decide to leave and in my opinion that was the right decision compared to staying at PSG but not getting playing minutes.
PSG had a poor performance in the early few matches of the season which saw them drop far down the points table but in the last few matches they have managed to get themselves back up the points table with good performances. After winning the last match in League One, PSG moved to the third position in the points table. If they can be consistent in League One from now on, it is not impossible for them to move to the top of the table. The French club has no choice but to plan with all the players PSG has now. They have only completed 8 matches so far so they still have plenty of time to turn around. If they can perform consistently from this time to the end of the season, they will have the league title in their home this season as well.
