Luis Enrique, PSG's coach, spoke about the decisive moment this season, immediately after qualifying in the Champions League final. France's champion eliminated Arsenal In the penultimate act, with 1-0 in the tour and 2-1 for return.
After the first 5 stages of the single group of Champions League, PSG had only 4 points, and the qualification in the eliminatory phases was uncertain. Luis Enrique had a discussion with the players, then everything started to go.
But it was not the only discussion with the books on the table between Enrique and the footballers of the France champion. In the summer, the Spanish coach threatened to leave if they do not train more seriously than they did last season.

Luis Enrique: “I told them that if they do not have a different mentality at workouts every day, I will leave”
“I do not remember the exact moment, but I had a discussion with my players when the results of the Champions League were catastrophic and unfair.
I had a meeting with the players and the staff to say that I was one of the best teams in Europe. The effectiveness was not there, but I said “Don't worry, we go ahead.” The players were sensational. It's a wonderful moment for fans ”
In the first year, I did a very good job, but it wasn't enough. I told them that if they didn't have a different mentality at workouts every day, I will leave.
This year, all the workouts were at a high level, and the players were exceptional. There is another last step, “said Luis Enrique, according to RMC Sport.
