…TIAGO SANTOS

I think he still needs to continue to progress because a match lasts 90 minutes and we have to see him for over 90 minutes. Offensively he is strong, but defensively he still needs to improve a lot. During the first part of the season, Tiago Santos had great difficulty understanding that the match was different depending on the different areas of the pitch. I'm not completely satisfied with Tiago. He must continue to progress because he still has a lot of areas to improve,” he confided to the media present in front of him.

…NABIL BENTALEB

He is a very young player. We must give him the time and the chance to express himself, which he has at the moment. Like everyone, everyone has their moments and we will need everyone at the end of the season. Tiago is a very good player and I hope he will help us until the end.

…PSG’S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE RACE

The first thing I want to say is good luck to PSG in the Champions League. Collectively, they are stronger, they all press together. They can do something this year.

…ABOUT MATCH

I think that playing Lille away is one of the most difficult matches of the season and the statistics prove it. It's difficult to prepare for the match. They master their subject better and better. Just from a tactical point of view, it's a very difficult but also interesting match for us, both for the staff and for the players. We talked about it this morning. You have to try to understand what they are trying to do and try to counter them, which really won't be easy.

…LILLE

For the moment I have the impression that this year, in their stadium, there are relatively few teams who have managed to find the fault and put them at fault. It's interesting for us. We are going to try to prepare for a huge match, both in terms of effort and in terms of the game plan. It is a very big challenge. They are probably, if not the best team in terms of structure and coaching this season, certainly in the Top 3.

…TO AVOID LOOSE

It’s the only team that dominated us from the fifteenth minute until the last second of the match. What we want to experience is clearly not the same thing. We want to try to find the alternative in our approach to the match, in the positioning that will allow us to experience a slightly different match. There will be delays, difficulties and rescues to be made, but we will try to give the keys to our players so that they can approach this meeting better and feel less uncertain. And then give yourself the chance to make them doubt.
