Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

bad news fro PSG, Ousmane Dembélé got injured, and he will be probably off arond 6 weeks. PSG must be cautious about this.

Not only Dembele but also Doue. It is 4 weeks for Doue by the way. Both of them are about to miss many games including even the Champions League ones.

Gonçalo Ramos and Barcola will be their replacements. Barcola can actually fill Doue's place nicely considering he is also very talented. But I have big doubts about Ramos. Tongue

Maybe there wouldn't be a problem in the league but can't say the same for the Champions League...

I think so too. Luis Enrique probably won't be too concerned about the Ligue 1 competition, but things will get more complicated when they play in the Champions League. Losing Dembele and Desire Due is a huge blow for PSG, and Luis Enrique will certainly hope both players recover faster than expected. Meanwhile, this is an opportunity for Goncalo Ramos, Kang-in Lee, and Barcola to showcase their talents, and Luis Enrique will certainly be relying on them for the next few games.

This is clearly a major blow for PSG as they are aiming to defend their title in all competitions this season, but the loss of several key players will undoubtedly hamper their progress.

Many blame Deschamps for injuries, as it was reported last week that Dembele might not be fit for yesterday's match. However, he still fielded the player that led to Dembele's injury. With the injuries it's safe to say PSG are already exhausted as Dembele and Doué are likely to miss the first two UCL matches. This is a major loss for PSG. Furthermore Dembele is one of the squad's difference makers and is difficult to contain due to his individual prowess.
