We no longer know where to turn with Luis Enrique. And it’s the same in Spain. Do you want proof? Here are two totally different bell sounds read in Marca And Mundo Deportivo this Thursday morning, the day after PSG’s victory against Real Sociedad in the Champions League (2-0). For Marca, “Luis Enrique has not changed PSG either: Mbappé and nothing else”. For Mundo Deportivo, “Luis Enrique silences the French press”.
And it’s like yesterday’s meeting, marked by two completely opposite halves. The first highlighted the funny starting choices of Luis Enrique, and in particular the tenure of Lucas Beraldo to the detriment of Lucas Hernandez. The second highlighted the changes made during the break, between a speech which shook the players and the exchange of positions between Fabian Ruiz and Vitinha to better control ball releases. So, should we point out the bad initial choices or applaud the maneuvering during the meeting?
Spain is also torn apart over the impact of Luis Enrique at PSG
For Mundo Deportivoa Catalan newspaper which therefore wants to celebrate the former member of the house, Luis Enrique, gave a good lesson to his detractors. “The French press constantly and unfairly attacks Luis Enrique. But what will they say today? There is an urgent need in Paris to find a new messiah given the more than imminent departure of Kylian Mbappé and if no star comes, they can now turn to the bench. Because what is clear is that the Spaniard is one of the best coaches in the world. » Just that.
For Marcaon the contrary, the savior is called Mbappé, and the collective does not follow. “The years pass, the coaches pass, and the feeling that PSG does not behave like a team remains. Against Real, he neither suggested nor offered continuity in his game. He held on, defended and passed balls to Mbappé and Dembélé to see what happened. It finds its only virtue in speed. With Luis Enrique, PSG has not improved either ». Luis Enrique therefore does not convince everyone in his country. At least he remains convinced of what he is proposing, like his post-match press conference.
