PSG – Lens: Luis Enrique shocks with a completely unexpected team composition

A few hours before kick-off against RC Lens, Paris Saint-Germain once again hit the headlines. The Spanish coachLuis Enriqueunveiled a composition that took everyone short. With no less thanSix changesCompared to the last match, the technician surprised not only supporters, but also French football experts, who struggle to understand the logic behind his choices.

As soon as the match sheet was announced, social networks ignited. Many fans have expressed their perplexity: why upset a workforce that finally seemed to find a certain balance? Some see it as a desire to experiment in Ligue 1, others fear a risky poker stroke against a tough opponent like Lens.

Despite these declarations, many observers remain skeptical. The former French international Jérôme Rothen said in particular on RMC:

The RC Lens, for its part, did not fail to follow this announcement carefully. The Lensois coach has already suggested that his men had to take advantage of this Parisian instability to try to create surprise.

Anyway, this PSG “experimental” version will be scrutinized very closely.
