This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain has an appointment with Arsenal in its lair of the Parc des Princes for a semi-final return from the long-awaited Champions League. After a first leg victory (1-0) at the Emirates last Tuesday, the question arises as to how the champions of France will approach this second round.
According to the former Gunners coach, Arsène Wenger, PSG has the choice between two states of mind to start the meeting. The men of Luis Enrique can either keep a resolutely offensive posture to try to accentuate their gap in the score, or opt for a more cautious approach.
Wenger's vision
“The mental problem of PSG is to know if they play to win this match, or if they play to protect their advantage and take them in counterattack”, analyzed the Alsatian on beIN SPORTS.
“Knowing this, you must be very clear in your message to the team and also knowing that all players will not necessarily agree with you. Because if they decide to protect their advantage, it is a bit contrary to the DNA of the team. Luis Enrique has already come to tell us that they had another match to win, and I believe that with the final in mind, knowing that you play at home, it will be very difficult to have a passive attitude ”said Wenger.
