Luis Enrique hits back at criticism of PSG

Coach Luis Enrique was once again at the center of a tense episode this Friday, ahead of PSG’s match against Auxerre. Irritated by criticism following defeats to Paris FC and Sporting, the coach lashed out at analysts’ lack of foundation.

“It’s mind-blowing! The nerve you have… you speak without having the information. If it works, it’s right; if not, nothing happens. That’s what journalism lives on,” the Spaniard said ironically, speaking in French.

Football with no memory

In his defense, the coach compared the current performance with the season of the historic treble. Luis Enrique pointed out that the team has scored four more goals than last year and that second place is Lens’ merit. “You always want to find solutions, but never do. You don’t even have 50% of the information I have,” the coach criticized, reaffirming that PSG remains a feared opponent by everyone in France.

The hostile atmosphere comes just days after the coach described football as a “s*** sport” due to results he considered unfair. He emphasized that, although the scoreline is disappointing, he trusts what he sees on the pitch: “It was a shame because I only saw one team throughout the whole game. We were much superior. Losing like this is frustrating, but I’m already used to it,” he vented, maintaining his stance that tactical performance is more relevant than the randomness of the score.

Despite the barbs, the coach took responsibility for the recent setbacks. “When there are problems, don’t worry: it’s my fault,” he said sarcastically.

Under pressure not to let Lens pull away in the Ligue 1 table, PSG takes the field needing to turn their coach’s irritation into goals and stability at the Parc des Princes.
