Paris coach Enrique attended the pre-Ligue 1 press conference and talked about his goals for the new season, he said he would defend his Champions League.
Talking about winning the European Super Cup
"This is a good way to start the new season of Ligue 1, and it is one of our goals. What is our goal now? After last season, our goal is very simple. We want to win everything and hope to win all the trophys. When I first came to Paris, my goal was to make history, and we are working hard to achieve it, and we are looking to win a second Champions League. But it can be seen that a team is very difficult to win two Champions League titles, but we are full of motivation, it depends on ourselves."
Talking about the new season of Ligue 1
"We were last season It is not 'normal' in the league. I can't predict what will happen in the new season. But we are eager to win this championship, the competition will be very fierce, last season was not easy for us, and now we are very happy to start over. "
Talking about the risk of injury after a long season
" Football is a contact sport, and injury is normal. We must realize that this is a situation that everyone will encounter, and the key is how to deal with it. Our approach is to respond actively, and we want to do the same thing, calmly analyze all the match time, training, travel and so on. We work hard to plan and make flexible adjustments. We have experience in this area. Physical condition is important, but mental condition is more critical. "
Talking about the physical condition of players
"The beginning of each season is always challenging, we are trying to get back that feeling, and as training progresses, we will gradually find the state. I have seen the progress the team has made after a week of training, which are issues we must get used to and overcome. I like the fighting spirit that the team has shown in the absence of adequate training, which was our DNA last season : Keep fighting to the end. Now is the time to praise the players. Of course, we have not reached the best yet, which is normal. "
Talking about the challenges faced
"The hardest thing is to continue to maintain unpredictability, and for this, we have to make some changes. The pursuit of innovation is our DNA, and we have a lot of discussions within the team, and we want to continue working on this. Many people only understand this when we win. But you have to try to improve yourself and get out of your comfort zone... This is what I often tell the players."
Does Ashraf support the competition for the golden ball?
"I know you reporters like to create controversy, it's a good attempt (laughs). But all the players in Paris focus on the most important thing, that is the club, and our fans know that. Winning trophy as a team is our main goal, we have to always focus on it."
Talking about potential signings in the transfer window "Our transfer strategy reflects the current situation of the team, we don't need too many players, we did most of the work a year or two ago. Of course, we have to be open to the transfer market, which is a must. But we have no problems at the moment, we need to be calm and calm . Our players are versatile, which allows us to have enough security in all positions, and I am very satisfied with the players who have joined. "
Outlook for the new season
"When you make a plan, but after the season begins, everything is likely to change. Sign a player, or plan the season in some way...it depends on the injury situation and many factors that we cannot control. We have to adjust the changes based on actual conditions, and if the team can win the game and let the plan go smoothly, that is of course the ideal situation, but we must be ready to deal with the various situations that may arise."
