Enrique: “Paris’ path to the Champions League could be short”
Luis Enrique claimed that Paris was ready to give everything to win before the game against Newcastle, but at the same time stated that his team had not yet reached the desired level.
Luis Enrique took charge of Paris Saint-Germain last July and has recorded eleven wins, three draws and as many defeats in 17 games on the Paris bench.
In the league, Paris is at the top and +1 ahead of Nice, while in the Champions League group it is in 2nd place behind Dortmund (-1).
On Tuesday (28/11) the French champions host Newcastle for Matchday 5, with Enrique claiming this was the case at the press conference His team is still not at the desired level and could still be eliminated from the groups.
“The course in Champions League It could be very short, there are only a few games left in a very complicated group with very tight places in the table.
The game against Newcastle could be decisive. I am convinced that my team is capable of playing and competing.
I hope we see the best version of our world, especially when the enemy can cause us problems. We need a stadium and a more passionate crowd than usual. We’ll play like it’s a final.
The team is still not what I want, but we are in a research process to be able to help the players more. We are far from what I want for Paris.”
