Rennes coach Habib Beye was at a press conference. When asked about Paris Saint-Germain’s ultra-domination, he assured us that the Parisian club was far superior to all the other teams, but took aim at the other Ligue 1 clubs who hadn’t done the job and shouldn’t be so many points behind PSG.
Beye “They’re hyper consistent, surely superior to all the Ligue 1″ teams.
“I’m going to be more pragmatic. Today when you’re a team chasing Paris, you only play them twice in the year. So the delta could be six points. If the delta is thirty points, it’s because you’ve dropped some during your run against the other teams.
They’re hyper-consistent, certainly superior to all the teams in Ligue 1, but on the other hand, the point differential (…) can’t depend on Paris Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain will be champions, they deserve it, and we must wish them the best of luck for the rest of their European campaign.”
Finally, some clear and exact statements about the scenario. The discrepancy isn’t because of overwhelming dominance from Paris Saint-Germain. Instead, it stems from an overall lack of performance among Ligue 1 teams, which should theoretically have more parity with PSG. Actually, every club in Ligue 1 faces PSG just twice per season, amounting to a possible six points between them all.
It's far from ordinary for Paris to be crowned champions with six matches remaining, while Monaco, Marseille, Lyon, Lille, and Rennes have underperformed. Instead of lamenting over the success of the Parisian team, we wish individuals would take notice of this situation. One must address their issues first before pointing fingers at others. Regarding this viewpoint, Beye expressed himself precisely as needed.
