Tons of goals, all stadiums completely full. The league 1 should only last a day. I'm pleased Marseille won and Nancy lost, Marseille need to play the champions league. It's weird that for the last 15 years, Marseille and P.S.G never really compete against each other. One year, Marseille is disappointing and another year it's P.S.G.
The league 1 would be better if Lyon, Marseille, P.S.G, Monaco and Bordeaux all compete against each other. The problem is that Monaco and P.S.G, with the players they have are likely to compete for the relegation spot.
When you look at the teams they had during the 90's (Bernard Lama, Alain Roche, Ricardo Gomes, Valdo, David Ginola, George Weah, Raí and Youri Djorkaeff for P.S.G) and now it's a pure joke..
As for Monaco, if they had kept there most important players the team would look like that GK-Evra, Thuram, Riise , Sagnol, Maicon, Guily, Yaya Touré, Rothen, Trezeguet, Henry, Adebayor.
The new owner Pastor is not investing at all, therefore they are so mediocre. During the good times, the prince of Monaco, the prince Albert used the cash generated from the casinos to offer super interesting contract, tax free. Hence, players like Weah, Anderson, Djorkael, Bierhof, Petit, Klinsman, Scifo to name a few, played there.
