Solid leader of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain took a further step in the defense of its title by winning (2-0) last Sunday at RC Lens. A victory acquired thanks to a very great Bradley Barcola and a new achievement signed Kylian Mbappé. A shock at the top which, however, was played out without Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos, left on the bench throughout the match by Luis Enrique. Present at a press conference before traveling to Orléans for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France, the Parisian technician wanted to make things clear regarding this choice which raises questions.
Facing journalists, the former La Roja coach first took stock of the state of form of Gonçalo Ramos (22), who has been missing in recent weeks. While Record revealed a major health problem (a viral infection which would have caused him to lose 6kg) affecting the performances of the former Benfica striker, Luis Enrique confirmed this information. “The reality is that he lost weight, it’s true, I don’t know how much, but you could clearly see it with the risks that it entails.

Despite 150 million euros invested during the last summer transfer window, the new strong man of PSG today positions Kylian Mbappé in a number 9 role. The latter is regularly surrounded by Bradley Barcola and Ousmane Dembélé. A choice which has not failed to make observers react in recent weeks, but which the Ile-de-France coach defends himself.
Relaunched on the subject of his two scorers, Luis Enrique finally opted for a much lighter tone. “I already answered this question. If you want to make it funny, there are only 11 players who can play. Do you have a team to give me where all the players play at the same time? No, it’s mathematics.”, launched the Parisian architect. An analysis, certainly, factual, but which should not calm the many questions surrounding the two Parisian attackers, criticized since their arrival in Paris. New element of response, this Saturday (8:45 p.m.), in Orléans where the state of the pitch seems, in the meantime, to be a much more worrying subject for Luis Enrique than that of his holder at the forefront…
