PSG manager Luis Enrique is sure that the team needs to get past its “obsession” with winning the Champions League.

Date:

Before their group stage debut, Luis Enrique, the manager of Paris Saint-Germain, has calmed concerns about their Champions League success.

When Paris hosts Dortmund at Parc des Princes, their European campaign will get underway. And Luis Enrique acknowledged that his team will need to manage expectations going into the game.

When a club is obsessed with something, it is never a good sign. You have to have ambition but obsession doesn’t work, that’s the same in all walks of life. We want to play, to give our supporters a lot of joy, but there is no obsession,” Luis Enrique said in a pre-match press conference.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: PSG have become synonymous with failure in the Champions League in recent years, suffering a series of embarrassing exits despite high expectations. But with Lionel Messi and Neymar both departing this summer, Luis Enrique’s squad looks radically different from those who routinely crashed out of the competition.
