"Is that a good situation, coach of PSG?" The question wasn't quite that, but it sounded very much like it. And she launched Mauricio Pochettino in the footsteps of the immense Edouard Baer in Asterix, with an improbable monologue of 7-8 minutes, this Monday afternoon, during the press conference before the Champions League match against Bruges. Heckled in recent weeks, between insipid performances by his team and the desire reported by some media to escape to Manchester United, the PSG coach apparently had things to say. We had to listen twice to understand everything, but that's what it gave in full. Magneto, Serge:

“I feel good, calm. I can feel the support of my players and of the club, which knows what we are putting in place. We are embarked on a process, with two different aspects. One is visible on the pitch, it concerns our style of play, the relationship between the players. The other is played internally, in communication, understanding, the links between the players in the locker room. It is important to have understanding on the ground. It all takes time. These two aspects must progress, being careful to keep a good balance. We are looking for a dynamic, for the group to come together, for the players to become one, with the same objectives, for everyone to have the feeling of belonging to this group for the benefit of all.

We are in this process, with ups and downs, and therefore ups and downs also on the pitch.

We need to further develop our ideas, to gain flexibility to respond to the different oppositions that we may encounter.

This is what we are in the process of putting in place.

I am aware that PSG is a club that shines very strongly, with a lot of noise around.

But we are qualified in the Champions League, we are 11 points ahead in the league ... There are always things that can be better, on which we must improve, but all this noise outside, that's what you waits when you are at a club like this.

The staff and the players, we know where we want to go.

We have clear ideas.

We respect what is said outside, but we continue on our way.

This process is not going to change because of all the light there is on this club.

There are split times to be observed, and they are correct.

We are first in the championship, second in C1 behind a very strong team, which has been building for many years.

We are on the right track, there is no doubt about it.

There are storms, but we take out our umbrellas and we know that afterwards the sun will come.

And when the sun is out, we will be able to benefit from the work accomplished, and share with our supporters.

Because of course, we want to play football, score goals.

This is our goal, but before that there is a lot of work.

We will continue in this direction, despite what we can say outside.

"

So much for the development, in line with its latest releases in front of the press.

The Argentinian has continued to highlight this shadow work since he arrived on the bench of PSG, almost a year ago.

The fireworks expected by everyone in view of the workforce would in fact be at the end of the road, over there, not so far.

May be.

In any case, for the moment, we are still looking for even the beginning of the preparations.
