Neymar Jr
: “He will be in the group.
It's a huge joy for everyone, him and us.
Holder or replacement in Lyon?
We like to apply common sense.
He has not played for more than a month, during the Caen match (on February 10 in the Coupe de France, editor's note).
It will be complicated to see it start.
But it's already good that he's here. ”

OL-PSG
: “It's a very important match.
A final ?
I don't know if it's a final, but it will be like a final, let's say.
We do not know if (the winner will have a definitive advantage) but there are in any case three important points to take in view of the classification. "
The choices in attack and the Mapped positioning
: “We adapt to the circumstances.
Mauro (Icardi) will not be in Lyon on Sunday.
We have to see if Moise Kean can do a second game in a row (the Italian international started Wednesday against Lille in the Cup, editor's note).
But beyond that, Neymar and (Kylian) Mbappé are able to evolve in different registers, different positions.
These are things that will be refined over time, with training.
Ditto for finding the best animation, the one that will allow them to express all their talent. "
His working methods, tactics
: “We've been at the club for two and a half months.
We didn't have a lot of time to work.
We have a squad of 25-30 players.
And it is important that they are all able to know what to do in the field.
This is why we do simple things because anything can happen and they must all be able to provide services and therefore know what to do.
We (the technical staff) like flexibility, we like being able to develop the game in different ways.
But today, we chose a way of playing that everyone can know, but also to improve things in different aspects, cognitive, physical or tactical, to bring the team as far as possible. "

The title of champion of France

This year, there are really difficult circumstances, but I am convinced that it can be done. ”
The government waiver for non-EU internationals
: “I am surprised to have received this information this Saturday.
It could have been done with more anticipation and the organization would have been different.
It is not easy for the club or for the players in terms of the organization and preparation of matches.
In this type of situation, those who suffer the greatest harm are the players and the clubs, who cannot do anything in terms of strategy for this game, football. ”
The middle battle against OL
: “The circumstances are different compared to the first leg (won 1-0 by Lyon at the Parc des Princes).
We can take this match as a reference, but the context is different.
Lyon is a great team with quality players.
We will have to be at a very good level, we will have to be the protagonist and not give them time to play or think to get a good result. "
