Still between the languages of Shakespeare, Cervantes and, a little, Molière, Mauricio Pochettino presented himself at a press conference this Tuesday on the eve of the Champions Trophy against OM.
The Argentinian has not issued any clues as to his team composition, simply indicating his desire to "win this match".
Is Neymar fit to play?
Do you feel revenge on the first leg?
MAURICIO POCHETTINO.
Neymar is available.
He will be with the group.
We will decide tomorrow (
Wednesday
) if it starts.
For the second question, it's a match in which I was not involved.
I can't talk much about it.
I saw pictures.
The situation is over, I cannot comment on it too much.
Is Mbappé ready to chain a third match in a row?
Kylian is in perfect condition.
We are evaluating the best options for tomorrow and winning.
We will see which team is the best to win this match.
How do you judge the work of Keylor Navas?
We know him well.
He's one of the best goalies in the world.
It is clear that he is a great professional, with a lot of sporting and human qualities.
We get to know each other, we take advantage of this great guardian who is Keylor.

What memories do you have of the clasicos disputed as a player?
I remember these meetings perfectly.
All the games were very special.
For the players, the fans, the club.
Football is a sport of emotions.
We realize with the health situation how much we miss the fans.
The importance of this match, I had already felt it in my time.

You have the opportunity to quickly win a title with PSG, which would be your first in your career.
Is this the main motivation?
My main motivation is to win this game.
We are playing against a great rival that is OM.
Pride is important, much more than titles.
We will do everything to win this match.
If we win, we know it will bring a trophy.
But the most important thing is pride.
You know that you will be judged on your ability to manage the stars, to choose who goes on the sidelines.
What's your approach?
Tomorrow we will be here for eleven days.
The most important thing is to have common sense.
There are things you can't change like playing eleven.
The players know that.
There are choices to be made depending on the settings.
We will always try to find the best teams.
The states of shape of each will have a significant impact on the choices.
In September during the lost clasico, the players seemed very nervous.
Have you worked on emotion management with them?
In so few days, we have already had to prepare two games, this is the clasico now.
We had to focus on different priorities, different aspects.
We have to talk about controlling emotions in football, it's a key element.
Are you afraid of the rumors from Spain about Kylian Mbappé?
What do you think of the future of Moise Kean, on loan from Everton?
When you are in Paris the rumors are incredible with so many names.
It was the same at Tottenham, Southampton or Espanyol.
We talk a lot with the club, with Leonardo on these issues.
When the time comes, the club will communicate.
Compared to Moise Kean, it is an internal decision, private discussions.
Today our focus is on tomorrow's game.
