“I am happy to be back at home here in Paris, and to get back to work. We know that it’s always difficult after an international break, but we have worked well and will be ready to face Lens. We look to approach each match calmly. We aren’t worried about the matches that are coming, we purely on the next one and in this case, Lens. But above all, we are happy to be back with our supporters.”
“We need to be careful and not get distracted. Lens are a good team, with a new coach since the start of the season, and he is a very good coach. We know that they play good football, but it’s always a source of motivation to play against a team like Lens.”
“I think about things as a collective. We have some injuries and I need to find a solution based on our strengths. We also know how to adapt depending on the opposition. Every time we have an injury, we can be worried. But that’s football. And I need to remain focused on the most important thing, which is the health of the players.”
“I love Presko. He has been injured quite a lot these last two seasons. And it’s a shame because he is a very good player. It was a difficult choice to not play him, because I couldn’t give him enough playing time. But he was, and will be an important player for us, and I wish him the best because he deserves it.”
“At the moment, we need to manage the players’ recovery. Everyone is in a different situation, in terms of game time, their physical condition… You really have to manage that, it’s the job of the coaching staff to find answers to ensure that the squad is ready for the challenges ahead.”
“I am very happy to have him with us. He is a very young goalkeeper, but with lots of qualities. He is the type of goalkeeper that we like, because he can be involved in creating things. He is physical, he is technically good. I like his personality and he works hard in training.”
