“It’s the best season of my career,” judge Luis Enrique

Luis Enrique, the coach of Paris Saint-Germain, estimated on Saturday that this season “was the best” of his career “statistically”while asserting that he had “the same relationship with all the players” of his team.

“Statistically, this is my best as a coach. Even if you (editor's note: the media) criticize, that there are lies invented, it is my best in terms of figures, on the chances generated by us, by the opponents, it is the best.affirmed the PSG coach, at the top of the Ligue 1 standings (five points behind OM) but in 25th place in the Champions League standings and temporarily eliminated.

“I look at everything the team does, the players, and we don't depend on any particular player, just the team. And I see that the level of training is rising, that the players are getting better every day.he commented.

Asked about his current relationship – described as more tense by a source close to the club – with Ousmane Dembélé, he assured that he had “the same relationship with all the players. I'm a coach. I am not their father, brother or bro. I decide, I have to make decisions, I have no problem making them, those that I consider to be the best for my team”he explained, while the French winger has played very little since his expulsion against Bayern Munich (1-0 defeat).
