AI summary
Luis Enrique is deliberately keeping his PSG squad under pressure in his fourth season at the club, a marked shift from last year when the same players featured in both Champions League finals. After Sunday's 1-0 win at Brest, the manager expressed frustration with the performance, signalling he expects more from his players despite the victory.
The arrival of five new recruits, including several attacking options, has unsettled the established order. Kvaratskhelia and Dembélé have been withdrawn at half-time, while Doué has been limited to substitute appearances despite his previous status as a regular starter. Enrique is using competition to maintain intensity as PSG pursue a historic treble in European football.
