When some managers get a new job, they prioritise changing the goalkeeper or the away form or the set-piece record. Luis Enrique is not most managers, admittedly. He is more ambitious; more awkward, perhaps. As he reflected back to his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain, he said he wanted to change the DNA.
Which he has. Not by winning Ligue 1, which has tended to be a given. Or, yet, by claiming the Champions League that has eluded them in an era of high spending and European underachievement. But that may only be four results away; PSG may only require two wins, plus a third in the Coupe de France, from a treble. “It is our goal to try and win all the trophies,” said the Spaniard. A 3-1 triumph over Aston Villa took him a step closer.
