😳 Manager raises the alarm: top Champions League club in mental crisis | OneFootball

Crisis mood in France! Paris St. Germain completely botched their dress rehearsal ahead of the start of the Champions League round of 16 against Chelsea. The French champions suffered a 1-3 defeat at home against Monaco. This means the Parisians have already lost as many games as they did in the entire previous season. 

After their second league defeat in the last four games, coach Luis Enrique was very clear in the subsequent press conference:

"At the moment, things are not right mentally. You can't buy self-confidence at the supermarket. We are clearly in trouble." He then went on to lament another problem with his team: "It's unusual for us to concede so many goals."

Mental issues and a faltering defense – not good conditions ahead of the decisive weeks in the Champions League. Just last season, an outstanding PSG lifted the trophy in the final against Inter Milan (5-0).

Right now, the Parisians seem to be miles away from that.
