“I saw the players enjoy themselves, and that’s very important. I had to think about how our fantastic three frontmen could express themselves as best possible, and that the system could be very important. It’s very pleasant to train them, to see them play every day. For a coach, it’s paradise. There are a lot of games, we have to manage them, and you have to decide who to put behind them to play the ball forward precisely,” explained the PSG boss. “The 4-3-3 system meant the front three could be a little higher up the pitch, and they had a little more freedom in their movements thanks to the work of the midfield. It’s a privilege to have those players and to see them play like that, for each other.”
