Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)
PSG could have closed the season with even 5 trophies but they failed in the FIFA Club World Cup. In the end this tournament was kind of a part of the previous season. Who could have thought Chelsea would be the one to stop them? 
I see some weakness in them against Premier League teams. Eliminating Liverpool and Aston Villa both were also not an easy work for them in the Champions League you know. I wonder whether Luis Enrique will find a solution for those teams too next season...

The Premier League teams play a bit differently. They attack very quickly. We saw in yesterday's match that Chelsea's first two goals were on long passes. Chelsea attacked very suddenly. They conceded goals before PSG's defenders were ready. PSG players could not even recognize Chelsea's attacks well. This is definitely one of their weaknesses. On the other hand, Maresca was able to identify the weaknesses of Luis Enrique's strategy well. I would say this is a great achievement for Maresca. Teams like Liverpool, Arsenal, Madrid, City and Munich have lost to PSG this season. But Chelsea dominated yesterday's match. Chelsea secured a big victory by a margin of 3-0.
