PSG management spent a lot of money. But they cannot make a perfect squad. Despite having many star players in the PSG squad, this team could not be called strong. Because their performance was mediocre. PSG management thought that adding star players to the squad would make them stronger. They forgot the role of the coach behind a squad. Every season we have seen PSG's erratic performances due to the lack of an experienced coach. If PSG could hire an experienced coach in addition to buying star players, then maybe we would have seen a better performance from PSG.

Yes, we are following the rumors regarding a potential replacement for Galtier.  it's just that, in recent weeks PSG have not formalized Luis Enrique as their official coach. the problem was, at that time Galtier's position was still with PSG. now, Enrique has officially become a coach at the Parc des Princess. as I said before, Luis Enrique is a coach who has a track record that need not be doubted, he is one of the coaches who ever won a treble winner. on the other hand, PSG is a French giant club that always targets the Champions League trophy. whoever the coach is, they will be fired if in the end they fail to bring PSG to the top of the most prestigious event.

But now the situation is different, PSG has lost several important players. Messi left, and now Mbappe's status is still a hot issue in recent weeks. In fact, we don't hear many rumors about Neymar. with the current situation, as I said, that it will be very difficult for Enrique to lead PSG to win the Champions League trophy in the first season.
Ideally, Enrique will first fix the PSG squad according to what he wants. if the system is running as it should, Galtier only needs to add newcomers to deepen the depth of his squad. that's why I said it would be very difficult for Enrique to win the Champions League trophy, as the club has always wanted.
IMO, PSG can emulate the steps taken by City when they brought in Pep Guardiola, he was given the freedom to build his squad.  and give time to the coach, to build his army according to the desired level.

Thus, maybe PSG will be much better after being handled by Enrique.

If the club owners want to dominate the coach, the result is never good. As we saw at the PSG club, the players were given more importance than the coach. The coach's decision is not evaluated. PSG does not allow the coach to work independently. This was one of the reasons for PSG's poor performance. If Luis Enrique can't work independently, PSG's situation won't change. But if PSG management gives Enrique complete freedom in his squad formation then Enrique will be able to strengthen the PSG team. Luis Enrique has this ability. He is very experienced.

I'm not sure that a change of coach will have any effect on PSG. Every year they top the domestic league and that's understandable because they have no serious competition and have a stellar squad of players. But in the Champions League they constantly fail. I can't speculate what might be wrong with the club, but it seems to me that the coach doesn't play a major role in this situation.

Wow, of course I am very happy to get info about PSG that PSG finally recruited a great coach like Luis Enrique. With the appointment of Luis Enrique as PSG's head coach for the next three seasons, I hope Luis Enrique can provide a stable and consistent performance for PSG both in Ligue 1 and the Champions League.

So yes, because Luis Enrique has become PSG's head coach, it seems that this will have an impact on Mbappe, whether Mbappe will really leave or choose to stay at PSG. Because anyway, if Luis Enrique manages to provide the best results and performance for PSG, then I think there is a possibility that Mbappe will stay at PSG, who knows

He is an experienced coach, but we'll have to see what team he will build. What he has achieved, especially with FC Barcelona, proves that he is capable of leading this team. Now, what will be a question is whether he will have full authority, and I hope above all that he will not let himself be undermined by his superiors, as he would lose all credibility like his predecessors. And at the slightest interference from anyone other than himself in the sporting domain, he will make the decision either to assert his authority forcefully or, in the worst-case scenario, if his decisions are not respected, to leave the club at the earliest opportunity.

I agree that Messi-Neymar-Mbappe trio didn't had compatible talents and that hurt them a bit more, not because they were not great players individually, they were all great individually but their playstyle clashed a lot and they didn't really ended up playing as perfect as they could.

I believe that Mbappe would be fine with Neymar, but instead of Messi they needed someone who would think about passing a bit more, and scoring when passed, but when they are carrying the ball to the offense, looking to pass to Mbappe, he is already their best player so someone that helps him would be much better for them. In the end we are not going to see them make a huge 100+ million type of transfer before all this Mbappe deal is figured out at least.

The clubs have to let go of certain players and replace them with players with hunger, particularly when it comes to competing in European matches. I can already witness the positive changes happening. PSG has made a wise decision by choosing Enrique, who has a legacy, experience, and strong leadership qualities. However, it is necessary for the PSG boss to keep patience and avoid making quick decisions. Lets say if Enrique fails to win the Champions League next season, it would be better to exhibit patience and give him more time to achieve success. Congratulations to the man full of football experience, and wish him good-luck.

I'm not sure that a change of coach will have any effect on PSG. Every year they top the domestic league and that's understandable because they have no serious competition and have a stellar squad of players. But in the Champions League they constantly fail. I can't speculate what might be wrong with the club, but it seems to me that the coach doesn't play a major role in this situation.

The only problem for PSG and Enrique is solved now and it seems PSG accepted Enrique's request about choosing his assistant coaches because they asked Enrique to keep working with two of Christophe Galtier's assistants and  Enrique didn't accept this because he wanted to have his own team in Paris.
Unzué and two other people are going to join PSG for the next season and help Enrique as he requested.

Wow, of course I am very happy to get info about PSG that PSG finally recruited a great coach like Luis Enrique. With the appointment of Luis Enrique as PSG's head coach for the next three seasons, I hope Luis Enrique can provide a stable and consistent performance for PSG both in Ligue 1 and the Champions League.

Because anyway, if Luis Enrique manages to provide the best results and performance for PSG, then I think there is a possibility that Mbappe will stay at PSG, who knows.

Even the news about this happened several times and not only this season but also last season there was also the same news saying Zidane wanted PSG but because there were several things he could not become a coach for PSG.
Now PSG has Enrique and of course this can be something that can actually lift because when compared to Poche and Galtier before, Enrique has more experience when coaching at big clubs.
On the other hand, PSG's current condition and the strength of the players they have can also be an advantage for Enrique where he can adapt the results he met at Barcelona because he saw the way they attacked and with the strength of these players it can still be but indeed in this case there must be more proof from Enrique. Hopefully this will go well and PSG does not always change its coach after the season ends.

As far as I know Zidane had received an offer to coach PSG but yes, Zidane turned it down so with this refusal it seems that PSG also did not make continuous efforts to get Zidane. But yes, I think the target of being able to recruit Zidane may have been forgotten at this moment because after all, PSG has also succeeded in recruiting Luis Enrique, of course Luis Enrique also has good qualities in building a team with a star squad.

I am not sure if he is really waiting for France because that is still at least three years from now and if the right club had asked him for an engagement I think he would have decided to go for it, but PSG is not one of the clubs that he likes very much. He can do whatever he wants of course, but to me it is more likely that it wasn't the right circumstances and probably not the right offer. But I think it would be good if he returns soon as his presence is good for the soccer world in general. He is one of those characters that contribute to soccer in many different ways.

Interestingly, they have spent only 120-130 million, and got a whole set of new players and manager and going to be awesome this season thanks to that. Ugarte is amazing, hernandes is quite great too, Asensio may not be amazing but getting him for free? That's amazing. I think they are going to be huge this year as well.

Only thing that matters now is to see if Mbappe stays or not, if he stays he will give at least one more season of victory for them, but if he leaves I do not know what they are going to do. He is not a player you can replace, there is no player they can get, maybe Haaland but we all know they are not getting him. So this is going to be very weird and I am not sure if it is going to work or not, it is going to be quite difficult.

I believe that no negotiation with Zidane at all as he does not want to manage another club while still waiting for his chance with France. He got opportunities to manage PSG but never shown that he wants to take it.

Today PSG announced their two new recruits namely Milan Skriniar and Marco Asensio with free agent status. It is hoped that these two players will become reinforcements for the PSG squad and for sure they will immediately get a place in the starters. The duration of the contract given by PSG is also quite long and it looks like both of them will be ready to help PSG become a better team starting next season.

Milan Skriniar will replace Sergio Ramos who left PSG at the end of the season and Marco Asensio will replace Lionel Messi who also left for Inter Miami after his contract ended this season. If you look at the current condition of PSG's players, of course they won't have any problems and it's just a matter of how coach Luis Enrique can maximize the existing squad later.
