Starting this Sunday during PSG’s victory against Saint-Etienne (2-1), Bradley Barcola continued his drought in front of goal. Luis Enrique wanted to defend his attacker.
Sparkling at the start of the season, Bradley Barcola
has been at the bottom of the wave for several weeks. Even if he tries things on the field, he can no longer get rid of his direct opponents and struggles to finish. He has in fact no longer been decisive with a goal or an assist in ten meetings with the PSG. Despite this, the French international has not lost the confidence of his coach, Luis Enriqueas he explained at a press conference, in comments relayed by The Parisian. In front of journalists, the coach of
PSG also wanted to congratulate the Stéphanois, authors of a great performance. He also mentioned the first tenure of Lucas Hernandez…
Ousmane Dembélé’s performance
« I would like to congratulate the opponent because I really liked the way they entered the match, with high pressure, courageous, without being afraid. We were a little lost for 15 minutes and Saint-Étienne made our task more difficult. We created a lot of chances. We were inspired but we could have scored more goals. You insist on those who score but I detach the whole team. At the moment it is Ousmanebefore it was Bradley. Everyone must be involved in the goal celebration. »
A possible departure of Kolo Muani to Juventus?
« I don’t know. The transfer window is more, for me, the market for vegetables, fruits, bread. »

How to restore confidence in Bradley Barcola?
« It’s confidence, more than technique. This is what I try to convey to him. He is sensational, exceptional and the fact that he does not score does not make him any less strong. He has less confidence, it’s true. But he brings to the team what we want in an attacking player. He gives goals, works defensively for the team. He is consistent with the player we went for a year and a half ago. But it’s true that he’s not having his best moment. He will return to his level because he is a great player. »
Lucas
Hernandez
« He’s a guarantee, a competitive player. He has a smile every day in training because he is coming back from a serious, very long injury. He is a high level player. There is no side match for him. »
Gonçalo Ramos’ performance
« It’s a match that we have to win more than 2-1. We weren’t very careful when it came to making it happen. This is our characteristic: we have a lot of chances but we don’t convert them enough. It was pretty good this Sunday. »
Did the players stop playing at 2-0?
« I don’t see it that way. We had to be very attentive, I didn’t like our start to the match. No player from PSG only plays at 40%. If so, I’ll take it out. My responsibility is to advance a very high level group. »
A game that has been evolving for a month?
« I don’t agree. It’s the same PSG than last season, with an evolution to avoid being predictable. I like what I see. Competition allows you to grow. I hope our team will continue on this path. »
