PSG bottoms out and Pochettino explodes: "It's inadmissible, it was a shame"

The coach of Paris Saint Germain,

, did not shy away from responsibility in the severe setback conceded by his team in Monaco where he acknowledged having offered an "inadmissible" image.

The Argentine acknowledged having felt ashamed.

"Yes, it is inadmissible to start like this. Afterwards, there is sporting shame. But now it's time to move on, overcome the frustration of the Champions League and think about giving your best. You have to have a competitive spirit", acknowledged the coach.

"This is unacceptable. The first half we did was unacceptable. We had no fighting spirit against a team that was in a bad moment. The way we played is not acceptable," he insisted.

Pochettino hoped to turn the situation around and get his players to react.

"This cannot happen. This cannot happen. We can have bad performances but not with this attitude. It is unacceptable to start the game in this way. Respect for the club and our fans is essential," he added after the Monaco clash.

The Argentine coach did not want to individualize.

"We always judge the collective performance, the collective state of mind, I don't want to focus on individual performances. We don't look for excuses. The most important thing is to find solutions, we have to stop looking for excuses, looking for pretexts".

The Paris Saint Germain coach took responsibility for the situation.

"You have to be responsible. Each one must take on the situation individually, thinking of the collective, of the team," he concluded.

Pochettino tried to turn the situation around and brought out the Argentine Mauro Icardi and Idrissa Gueye instead of Georgino Wijnaldum and Leandro Paredes.

Everything got worse.
