At a press conference before the trip to Strasbourg in the championship, Luis Enrique was asked about the pressure exerted by Lens, recent winner of Le Havre (1-0) and provisional leader of the championship. The PSG coach recognized that the Lensois club represents a serious competitor this season, while affirming his own ability to manage pressure in the title race, picking up the thread of Pierre Sage’s reaction after the Lens victory.
“Is Lens our main competitor for the title? It’s clear ! There is Lens and there is us. What has changed compared to last season is Lens. They are different. The rest is as usual. I like pressure. If they want to put pressure, I like that. We are used to having this type of pressure. We have to show tomorrow that we like this pressure”. A way for the Parisian coach to remind us that PSG knows how to respond to competition and expectations, even in a championship that is tighter than the previous season.
