Always complicated, the front match. Even more when the title of champion is already acquired. However, PSG will have to play it well, this match against Nice on Friday evening, while the Champions League semi-final against Arsenal is in all heads. Luis Enrique recognized him at a press conference. “We live a fairly strange championship moment, because we are already champions and part of the motivation has disappeared. We have this obsession with the Champions League. We are in a good shape and I am sure that we will see a large version of PSG in the Champions League, and tomorrow is a new step in the L1 to demonstrate it ”he explained.

Obviously, Luis Enrique is very proud of his team, and even his current level despite some more neutral performances in recent weeks in the league. Clearly, despite the possible record of invincibility to seek, the Spanish coach favors European competition. “If someone guarantees me access to the Champions League final in exchange for a l1 defeat, I agree to lose against Nice. If I am assured that by losing against Nice we go to the final, I undoubtedly sign. But as no one can assure it and we are an ambitious team, so it is important to arrive against Arsenal by playing 100% ”he launched.

Luis Enrique is not going to work on the kicks stopped

More than ever, Luis Enrique addresses this Ligue 1 match as a preparation for the Champions League, while ensuring keeping his mantra. “We never calculate. This is something I have decided since the first day. I am totally convinced that we can win the trophies by attacking, with an attacking game. This is what I have always felt and that is what I will do as a coach until the end of my career. You should never calculate. “ However, he will have to think about his team composition for the match against Nice, between the desire to preserve certain holders and desire for dress rehearsal.

In any case, he will not change his approach to Arsenal. ” No. Because I have already known Arsenal perfectly, for a very long time. We have already faced them this season. The qualities and the faults that have led us so far are the same ”he answered a question about the management of stopped kicks, a strong point of the Gunners. “We want to win all the trophies by playing as we play, defend as we do. There is no team from the perfect world and we won't be either. »» Win or lose, but without denying your philosophy.
