Indeed, the Rogue and Blue are in second place behind Olympique de Marseille (1 point difference). A medium-speed start to the season which can be explained by the absences of several executives since the start of the financial year.
Luis Enrique has still not fielded his typical team since the resumption of competitions and does not hesitate to rotate and propel young people onto the pitch. For RMC Sport consultant and former OM defender Éric Di Meco, the Spanish technician will favor the C1 over Ligue 1 this season.
“In Luis Enrique’s mind, winning Ligue 1 is normal. This is not considered performance. If he has to favor a match it will always be that of C1. He wants to do the double, which in addition to being very rare would be an achievement and a first in France,” he said in the show
Rothen Ignites this Monday.
“Ligue 1 is secondary”
Luis Enrique had announced the color on the eve of the first Champions League meeting against Atalanta: the club wants to retain its C1 title and go back-to-back. A more than difficult mission but one that excites and galvanizes Parisians.
For the editorialist RMC Daniel Riolo, the C1 is the main objective of PSG this season and the championship is secondary. “We went from 'C1 is not our objective' to 'our only objective is back to back. Ligue 1 is completely secondary, for business and sporting reasons. Everyone knows that PSG can win the championship with their eyes closed if everyone plays. But not everyone can play with injuries. I think it doesn't matter if they didn't become French champions. I think the club doesn't care at all. »
