It's a habit, even if we are on the eve of a Ligue 1 match, very often after a setback in the Champions League, Luis Enrique's press conferences focus on the European Cup.
“Our ranking is not deserved” in the Champions League, Paris SG coach Luis Enrique said on Friday, saying he “super confident” despite the new defeat Tuesday in Munich (1-0). “I feel super confident, regarding qualification for the Champions League we should have nine points at least, our ranking is not deserved”declared the Spaniard at a press conference at the PSG Campus in Poissy (Yvelines).
“I liked what I saw in Munich!”
With only four points after five matches, PSG is 25th out of 36 in the league phase, and therefore finds itself threatened with elimination before the last three matches. On the other hand, Paris is first in Ligue 1 with six points ahead of Monaco , before facing Nantes on Saturday (9:00 p.m.) for the 13th day. “I liked what I saw in Munich! Yes we can improve, but I am very, very optimistic”assured Luis Enrique. Criticism and poor results among players “repercussions for sure, but not on me who doesn't read the press. We are in a similar situation to last year (where PSG came close to elimination in the first round of C1 before reaching the semi-finals), In the end we were one of the four best teams in Europe. Who can say if we will be able to qualify?observed the coach.
Before returning to the Champions League with a trip to Salzburg, PSG will have to play two Ligue 1 matches against Auxerre and this Saturday evening against Nantes.
