Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembélé on Monday was named the Ligue 1 player of the year for the second year running. Paris Saint-Germain and RC Lens shared the main trophies.

Dembélé winning back-to-back player of the year is impressive, but PSG really needs to show up in the Champions League. Individual awards mean little without European success.
Not surprised Dembélé got it again, but Lens sharing the main trophies shows they’re a real force. Their defense deserved more credit this season.
Weather conditions can be a great equaliser between disparate teams.
Two years in a row for Dembélé? He’s been consistent, but I still think his injury record should’ve been a factor. The league must be lacking top talent.
Great for Dembélé, but the real story is how Lens competed with PSG’s budget. They deserved at least one of those shared trophies.
Goalkeepers often don’t get the credit they deserve until they make a mistake.
The standard of officiating needs improvement across pretty much every sport.
The off-season is always too short for players and too long for supporters.
International tournaments bring a different kind of energy that club football lacks.
Penalty shootouts are a cruel way to decide knockout matches.
The level of athleticism these days is genuinely extraordinary.
