Differences in his work between Tottenham and PSG
: “In Tottenham, we arrived on May 27 (2015), we had a month to prepare for the preseason which started in early July, to lay the foundations for the work we were going to do during the season.
Here, in two and a half months, we have already made 16 official matches, in different competitions.
So changes must be made little by little and the process is necessarily longer to obtain improvements, you have to adapt to the situation.
We put our methodology into practice.
(…) It's not because we changed countries or players, but when we arrived at the club, we had to do an analysis of the players' fitness level in order to establish a plan to optimize each sector.
We arrived on January 3, there is no excuse to put forward, but today, we must try to find the best of each in a logic of optimization and to be better every day. "
Neymar Jr
: “We talked about a possibility (that he plays) against Barcelona.
There was no relapse.
He did part of the training with the squad this Saturday.
We hope that will continue to find him with us as soon as possible. ”

Nantes
: “It's a very important match for us.
I wouldn't talk about a trap match, because we are aware of the situation.
It is always important to master a match that comes after a very great joy in the European Cup.
We know it will be a difficult match against an athletic team.
You have to be fresh to win.
(...) Against Monaco, just after going against Barça, it had been difficult.
I hope that we have learned from that and that we will perform at the level we expect.
We need to win this match to win the title. ”

The opportunities conceded against Barça
: "We are not 100% happy with the first period of the return match, but why focus only on these 45 minutes, when this confrontation lasted 180 minutes in total between the two matches, that we won in aggregate 5-2 and eliminated Barcelona?
The magic of the Champions League is that there are special moments or matches.
We also know that there are matches where we are good but after which there are things to improve, and others where we were not good but there were always things to improve.
But in general, the performance was very good, to advance to the quarterfinals, even though we know that there is always room for improvement. ”

Kurzawa, Paredes, Florenzi failing against Barça, the hierarchy in question
: “The performance is always collective.
If there is a responsible, it is the one who is in front of you and who speaks to you.
Afterwards, football is a team sport and you must always see performance through the prism of the collective.
If we talk about this first period, it was collective.
Keylor made some great saves, but it was mostly collective. ”
The expressions of affection from Mbappé and Navas towards Sergio Rico

Obviously, you can't do anything that will change reality.
But feeling the support is important. ”
