Luis Enrique has not changed his good old habits. Like every week, the PSG coach once again went there with his “bonneteau” and once again took, with a few exceptions, everyone by surprise when unveiling the starting lineup which was going to face Brest this Sunday 28 January at the Parc des Princes.

From the height of his 21 years and his status as a kid in the making, the winger recruited this summer for 50 million euros from Olympique Lyonnais – excluding the Coupe de France – started his eighth match in a row this Sunday evening with PSG.

And it’s a safe bet that this will hardly change if the native of Lyon continues to spark as he did during the draw (2-2) conceded by his team against Stade Brestois.
