PSG: "If I weren't worried, it would be serious", blows Galtier, calling for "sacred union"

2023-02-11T19:45:50.515Z


The PSG coach did not hide his concern after the severe defeat suffered by his team in Monaco (3-1) in L1, three days behind Bayern in C1.


Does the problem come from the state of mind of your players or is it more serious?


Christophe Galtier

 : We are not in the same context as in Marseille (2-1 defeat Wednesday in the Coupe de France, editor's note).

Due to the absence of certain players, it was complicated.

It was necessary to compose and recompose the team several times in relation to the state of health of certain players.

Automatically, the team that was lined up had a totally different face to what I usually do.

The organization also had to be changed.

We had a disastrous start to the match.

By modifying the organization during the match, we thought we would come back and we can be angry about the way we take the 3rd goal, which is very stupid and comes at a very bad time.

In the second half, nothing happened.

It's not a question of state of mind or lack of intensity, it's the

current workforce status.

I'm not going to hide behind that but the current state of the squad is this.

It's weird to say that when talking about PSG but it's the reality.

To discover

  • Calendar and results Ligue 1

  • League 1 standings

Are you worried?


Yes.

If I weren't worried, it would be serious.

We have a very busy schedule and a very affected and weakened workforce but we are worried.

I understand the anger of the supporters, it is legitimate.

But in these difficult times, we need sacred union.

We have to talk less and work a lot to get a great game against Bayern.

Christophe Galtier

Do you have any doubts about Paris' ability to put up a good showing against Bayern Munich on Tuesday?


There is no room for doubt, there is an observation on the circumstances, which must not be concealed.

We must prepare well for the Bayern match, hoping for the return of certain players.

It will be a very important match against a team that is recovering.

We obviously have to talk less and work a lot to get a great match against Bayern.

Is there a chance of seeing Kylian Mbappé on the pitch on Tuesday?


I do not think so.

He follows his rehabilitation protocol.

He suffered a muscle injury.

We will take zero, zero, zero risk with Kylian, hoping to recover Marco (Verratti, editor's note) and Leo (Messi, editor's note) and those who were on the bench today.
