The former star consultant of Canal +, Pierre Ménès was not kind to the new PSG coach, Luis Enrique.
After a disappointing draw against Clermont last weekend, Ligue 1 (0-0), Paris Saint-Germain sank on Wednesday evening against Newcastle (4-1), on the 2nd day of the phase of the Champions League groups. Parisians who have not been spared from criticism since this debacle, starting with Luis Enrique, whose tactics put in place against the Magpies raise questions.
Pour Pierrot the FootballPierre Ménès returned to PSG’s heavy defeat, pointing out the tactical choices of the Spanish coach. “We had a catastrophic match from PSG. Newcastle won with enthusiasm, commitment and self-sacrifice. How can we talk about this match without coming back to this absolutely aberrant team composition of Luis Enrique, who in his little brain thinks that something that did not work in Clermont will work against Newcastle? »lamented the former Canal+ consultant.
“The Champions League is not a video game”
And to add another layer: “The Champions League is not a video game, you don’t play with two midfielders and four attackers, it doesn’t exist, it’s unjustifiable, it’s a terrible professional mistake, because obviously we’re going to say, don’t exonerate the players, because they were rubbish, but the players are lost! Ugarte or Zaire-Emery can’t do everything together, when you have a five-man midfielder opposite! Especially since out of the four in front, there was only one who came down, it was Dembélé, the other three watched the balls pass. »
“Luis Enrique must stop with this system of four attackers which worked in a very particular context against Marseille, but which cannot work against a well-organized team and especially a team which has shown so much physical vigor and impact. What Luis Enrique has been doing since he has been at the head of PSG does not please me, does not convince me, and that worries me”concluded Pierre Ménès.
