The Parisian coach answered questions from the media on the eve of the reception of Brest during the 7th day of Ligue 1.


His look at Donnarumma, criticized after Juventus

“Will there be turnover in this position?

As for me, I'm not that kind of coach to make changes to the goalkeeper position.

We often forget that "Gigio" is a young goalkeeper (23 years old), even if he has been playing for a long time.

We also forget his two decisive stops (against Juventus) and there he was very present.

I talked about it with him, obviously, I want a goalkeeper with presence in the air, he has the physique, the "jump" and I don't want this error to slow him down on what I want to see from him. .

To answer precisely, there will be no turnover (with Navas against Brest).

His upcoming changes against Brest

"Obviously you need freshness and there will be some because I have a quality workforce even if some elements like Fabian Ruiz and Carlos Soler lack benchmarks who arrived 4 days from a Champions League match. (against Juventus last Tuesday, 2-1 victory).

We had few sessions to work on a tactical plan.

Against Brest (Saturday, 5 p.m.), it will not be the same eleven as against Juventus.

You have to inject some freshness to keep everyone involved.

The Neymar-Mbappé agreement

“The relationship between Ney and Kylian is very good.

I'm not jarring you.

They are associated in exos, exchange together … There was this match situation (in the second half, Mbappé preferred the individual option on a counter when Neymar seemed in a better position to score the 3rd Parisian goal), and for having spoken with Kylian, who I think spoke about it with Ney, two times ago in this action.

He can give the ball away at the start and then Kylian doesn't see Ney.

Obviously when you see the images everything seems simple but there are 2 seconds to make a decision.

I am convinced that Kylian will assist Ney as the opposite.

I didn't feel anything negative about this game action (between the two players).

His view on rookies Ruiz and Soler

“They are happy to be here, had wanted to join us for some time.

Carlos (Soler) has rhythm, has made a normal preparation, 10 days ago he played with Valencia.

He must discover his partners and what I expect of him on the pitch.

It will quickly do as he is an intelligent player.

Fabian (Ruiz), had a frustrated preparation because he did not play in Serie A and trained alone for almost 20 days.

He works harder than the others to find a more sustained and high pace.

They are ready to start the match against Brest.

If Messi-Neymar-Mbappé will be substitutes this weekend

“(firm) No (it's not possible).

I try to be as clear as possible (laughs).

(Relaunched on one of the three on the bench) It's possible.

His management of substitutes during the season

“I don't use the term substitute, I say the entrants, it's more positive.

First of all, there are the discussions when you build a squad and you are in contact with the players to tell them clearly the situation, namely the very high competition at PSG.

They already know that when they arrive, it will take time if they want to impose themselves.

Then there is the reality of the very compact schedule, they know they are going to play matches.

There it is up to me, with the staff and the medical, who must know when we can integrate 4 or 5 players on a kick-off.

At OM he (Igor Tudor) succeeded in Auxerre with 7 players, which seems like a lot to me.

We have to give hope and that the players are involved in our adventure.

There are exchanges,

the players speak more easily with the staff, the information goes up.

There is frustration, not anger, and it needs to be vented through dialogue and action.

A player is happy when he is on the field.

If he is already thinking about the winter transfer window

“You (the journalists) are already projected on the hibernal transfer window, me not at all.

Our leaders must already discuss and anticipate, I don't.

What has been done has been done quite well.

It is important that the players I was not counting on have been able to find a club and playing time. Many are on loan and will return next season.

Mauro (Icardi, loaned to Galatasaray), it happened in the last hours, I hope he will be happy there and find some playing time.
