PSG lost against Lyon tonight which ended their league record streak. Zlatan didn't have many chances and PSG struggled overall. Read Zlatan's thoughts after the game.
Tonight PSG's winning streak ended as you lost 2-1 to Lyon. Tell us what you think of the match and your performance.
In Ligue 1 we are used to seeing PSG as the dominating team, a team that takes its opponents apart with great passing, a team that is superior in most aspects. What was it that made it possible for Lyon to disturb the mighty PSG?
Despite the loss you are ahead in the league by more than 20 points and are still unmatched league leaders. But how does the loss affect your preparations before the second Chelsea match as well as other key matches?

Tomorrow, the league continues as PSG faces Lyon away on Parc Olympique Lyonnais. What do you think of the match?
For the first time since Christmas you have had a break for more than a week. What have you been doing and how has it affected you?
We have talked about this before. Ezequiel Lavezzi has left PSG without the club replacing him. How does this affect the breadth of your squad?
Tomorrow, you have the opportunity to break another record, 28 straight league matches in one season without losing. Compared to previous teams you have represented, is this year's version of PSG the best team you ever played in?

Without both Zlatan and Thiago Silva (rested for Chelsea), PSG played 0-0 against Lille on Parc des Princes today. In a game which had a remarkable sense of non-importance PSG didn't score but they didn't conceide a goal either. It was PSG's 35th straight league game without losing and they are of course still league leaders by a million points.
Edinson Cavani, Angel di Maria and Jean-Kevin Augustin started up front and Lucas was taken on in the second half.
Marco Verratti replaced Javier Pastore in a 'substitution of comebacks' at halftime. Verratti looked fit and will hopefully be ready to start against Chelsea.

Another game - another win. PSG extended their record to 34 league games without losing by beating Marseille 1-2 away in tonight's Le Classique, Zlatan scored on goal and had one assist. Read his thoughts after the game.
As expected tonight's Le Classique was a tight and exciting match – and it ended in a 2-1 win for PSG. What do you think of the big match?
With one goal and one assist you were very much involved in the win. What do you think of your own performance?

The evening resulted in three points after a strong performance by the whole team, but which single PSG player would you say was most important to tonight's win?

Even though Marseille are nowhere near PSG in the league table, they were still able to challenge PSG in tonight's Le Classique.
But PSG have Zlatan and were too strong in the end.
Ibra scored the opener in the second minute and served Di Maria to the gamewinning goal in the second half.
Time for Le Classique! Even though Marseille hasn't been their true self this season and are placed nine, the crowd at Stade Vélodrome will most definitely create an intense atmosphere when mighty PSG visit. Read Zlatan's thoughts before the game.
Tomorrow night it's time for the classic meeting PSG vs. Marseille. How is the atmosphere on the team before the big match?
Le Classique this Sunday will be broadcast by 43 TV stations and is discussed a lot in countless media around the world. Does it feel like there is a difference between the buzz around you before a match like this compared to an “ordinary match” in League 1
French football is hotter than it's been in a long time, and the big star in League 1 is called Zlatan Ibrahimovic. How does it feel to be such a big contributor to this step up for the French league and Paris Saint-Germain?
