We are not a little bothered at the time of publishing these lines since, on the eve of the C1 match against Leipzig, Mauricio Pochettino’s press conference focused exclusively on the big subject that we are preparing for you for Wednesday morning: the absence of style of play at PSG since the start of the season. Just know that if the entire planet is tearing its hair out to understand the ideas that the Argentine coach wants to put in place, he does not have this problem.
“The project, we have it, the ideas, we have them, we know how to develop them. The process of building a team goes through stages. I do not want to develop here how we construct these stages. We are in a phase where we prioritize certain aspects of the project but the identity is clear, the philosophy is clear, ”assured the Cover from the Red Bull Arena on Tuesday evening.
PSG could play with a three-way defense
Asked about the system in 3-5-2 (or 3-4-3) seen at the end of the match against Leipzig and Lille at the Parc des Princes, which each time allowed the team to find a little consistency after more than an hour of mush in 4-2-3-1, the former Spurs manager did not rule out starting this Wednesday.
“Systems are starting points, they are drawings. I prefer to talk about entertainment. This flexibility takes understanding and we hope that this understanding of the game will come quickly. But playing with three is always an option, ”he said. To be sure, go to our site tomorrow to follow the Parisians match live from 8 p.m. on the Leipzig lawn.
