Luis Enrique had predicted that Paris Saint-Germain would evolve into a more collective team after Kylian Mbappé’s departure. On the eve of the clash against Monaco, the Spanish coach reaffirmed this vision, highlighting PSG’s strong form since the start of January.
He emphasized the challenge of facing Monaco, a well-structured team, and stressed the importance of squad management amid a packed schedule. “It’s like a game of Tetris,” he explained, pointing out that injuries and suspensions require constant adjustments.
“I Was Very Brave”
When asked about life after Mbappé, Luis Enrique stated: “I was very brave last season when I said we would have a better team in attack and defense. I still believe we are stronger in both areas, and the numbers back it up.” He believes the squad has adapted well, with goals now being shared among multiple players, reinforcing the team’s collective strength.
He also praised Ousmane Dembélé’s growing leadership role and emphasized the need for patience with Kvaratskhelia as he continues to integrate into the squad.
