Lens-PSG: Luis Enrique’s cash outing on his workforce management

Marco Asensio, Randal Kolo Muani and even Gonçalo Ramos… These are, perhaps, the big losers of this evening in Lens. If Paris Saint-Germain logically won (2-0), thus taking a further step in the defense of its Ligue 1 title, this shock also provided some interesting clues about the project desired by Luis Enrique. With this in mind, Kylian Mbappé, surrounded by Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola, once again started at the forefront, despite the presence of two real number 9s on the bench: Kolo Muani and Ramos.

Substitutes at kick-off, the Frenchman and the Portuguese have never set foot on the Bollaert pitch, in the same way as Asensio. A strong choice which did not escape the observers of the evening but for which the former coach of La Roja justified himself. “I didn’t change more players because I really liked what I saw. If it were up to me, I wouldn’t have made any changes. But Soler had received a yellow card and if there had been another problem, we could have finished with ten men too. Otherwise I wouldn’t have changed anyone.”, admitted the Parisian technician at a press conference. To the great happiness of the holders, to the great misfortune of others…
