Luis Enrique defends Barcola and Kolo Muani
During this press conference, Luis Enrique also defended Bradley Barcola, scorer against OM but less visible lately. “SIf Barcola ever goes three days without scoring you will criticize him, he said.
It's a marathon, there will be ups and downs and if he doesn't score, other players will score. There is no additional burden, the pressure should not be placed more on one player. Everyone has to score goals. »
The former Barça coach also mentioned the case of Randal Kolo Muani, who is having a difficult time at PSG. “ I count on all my players without exception, he assured. I trust what I see in matches and in training. A player who doesn't play can turn things around in training. I can give or take away playing time based on what I see and what I consider best for the team. »
