PSG is totally ineffective in the Champions League, and Luis Enrique was faced with his choices. Randal Kolo-Muani took a scud in passing.
So often taken back when they ask questions that do not please, the journalists following PSG raised their voice after the defeat against Atlético de Madrid. Seeing Paris being so harmless despite such domination obviously raises questions. And in particular to try to understand why Luis Enrique does not field a real center forward, when he has a French international on the bench in this position in the person of Randal Kolo-Muani. Certainly, Gonçalo Ramos is injured, but the Spanish coach insists with his false 9, whether it is Lee or Asensio. Without success, both players do not score, do not weigh, and are never in the finishing zone. It was still glaring this Wednesday against Atlético de Madrid, who apart from Clément Lenglet’s gift on the opener, did not have too many players to watch in their own penalty area.
Now Luis Enrique asks for a center forward
Thus, Luis Enrique was asked, whether by Canal+ or at a press conference, why he did not put a real center forward. And for the former FC Barcelona coach, the observation is terrible since he simply doesn’t have any. “ Is the lack of a top striker the source of your efficiency problems? Bring it to me if you have it. Where did I get this attacker from? It’s the Champions League. I am true to my ideas. The day I completely fail in football, I will do it with my ideas, not those of a journalist, another coach, or anyone else », Delivered the PSG coach, who simply believes that he does not have a top striker of Champions League level in his squad.
Humiliating for Randal Kolo-Muani, especially since the former Nantes player was not the least interesting of PSG’s offensive players when he came into play. And confusing to complain about for a coach who has never stopped emphasizing that he was at the origin of the club’s decision not to recruit a major player up front, and was therefore very satisfied with his squad this season.
