As a great connoisseur, Thierry Henry praised the work of Luis Enrique at the head of PSG.

Thierry Henry analyzed the work of Luis Enrique to manage the pressure of his players since the start of the season at PSG, and in particular in the Champions League, before the victory against Real Sociedad (2-0) in the round of 16 first leg at the Parc des Princes.

Manhandled in the first half, the home team suffered the anger of their coach while resting in the locker room during half-time and corrected the situation thanks to Kylian Mbappé and Bradley Barcola in the second act.

Henry analyzes the Luis Enrique method

“From the start, the managers and supporters have all liked the way he makes his team play by building from the back and putting a lot of pressure,” explained the Bleuets coach during his consulting activity for the CBS Sports channel. “We called him back, he didn’t start very well and if he wasn’t a great coach he would have been in danger. But not him. »

“At times he can find himself in difficulty because of what he says in press conferences because he is rather direct in his answers. But apart from that I like seeing him come in and say to everyone: ‘relax about the Champions League’. He said it from the start that if the club won it so much the better but that it should not be an obsession“, Henry continued.

Which is a bit hard because that will always be the case at Paris Saint-Germain. No matter what happens externally, a coach generally tries not to have an impact on his team internally. That’s what he’s trying to do. “, adds the former Gunner.
