PSG have had a perfect start to the season, with four wins in four games. The team is firing on all cylinders and some are starting to wonder if this Paris is not performing better than the one they did last season when they had Kylian Mbappé in their squad.
The question was posed this Wednesday to Eric Di Méco, a former French footballer who now works as a consultant. For him, it is still too early in the season to decide on this subject. “I can’t say,” he began by answering on RMC Sport. “They’ll have to be champions, they’ll have to reach the semi-final of the Champions League, they’ll have to have a scorer with 30/40 goals including tax. I have my doubts.” An opinion similar to that shared by journalist Bertrand Latour the day before on Canal+.
“This PSG squad suits Luis Enrique”
Where the 1993 European champion is adamant is that Luis Enrique has the squad he needs to progress.. “I have the impression that Luis Enrique prefers this year’s squad with young, malleable players that he will shape for his team and his idea of play. It’s still better to have given him a squad that suits him, unlike last season.”he confided.
An opinion shared by the former French international, Louisa Necib. “The collective seems much more balanced and stronger than last year, especially in the defensive organization. Today, everyone runs and everyone defends.”
