Read this post and the replies, you will know that fans don't understand or care about the process.
PSG were bad as a team in Enrique's first year, and many players were playing at their level as a result. PSG backed Enrique and sold Mbappe, Ugarte, and others to rebuild again. Everything changed.
But for the fans, he should have been sacked before rebuilding the squad. It took him three windows, not one.
🚨| NEW: Ousmane Dembélé’s relationship with Luis Enrique is increasingly tense and strained. Luis Enrique remains extremely furious about Dembélé getting a red card vs. Bayern and his attitude.
Luis Enrique is now fed up with what he views as actions worthy of an inexperienced player from Dembélé. Meanwhile, Dembélé still hasn’t understood why he was dropped from the squad against Arsenal. He doesn’t understand why he was the only one punished while other players who have been late this season faced no punishments. This perceived double standard has not sat well with Dembélé.
Privately, in recent months, Dembélé has also expressed confusion about Luis Enrique’s tactical approach. He feels the team’s style of play is overly rigid and predictable. A well-informed source from the locker room says: “I think Luis Enrique has lost Dembélé.”
Furthermore, Randal Kolo Muani not playing at all has raised further questions within the locker room. @Tanziloic
Some people think that Enrique came in and lit up PSG. He had a poor first year and faced calls for his sacking from PSG fans.
But alas, if you know what you want and the club has your back to keep making adjustments, you will succeed as a coach.
Like I always say, the most important thing is trust in the manager, his ideas, and the project.
Gusto is like Fofana. On his day, he's top but he lacks consistency. There is lack of concentration at times and can also be careless with his decisions.
The problem with this is that TAA wasn't even that good under Alonso at Real Madrid.
So, I don't think Alonso will be moved even if he's made available by Real Madrid.
Glen Johnson tells Chelsea to go and sign Trent Alexander Arnold from Real Madrid:
🗣 "I think he should be a target for Chelsea in January. I think they could get him on loan, and it would be perfect for both parties.
Chelsea needs a right back at the moment, and Trent needs minutes under his belt."

Every winger with good shooting and dribbling technique on both feet is a very dangerous customer for any FB.
This boy is heading to the top.
Not really; you can build a technically gifted team that can maintain 70–75% possession every game, but it is tiring to defend against.
The problem for such teams, however, is being out of possession. When they lose the ball against a counter-attacking team, do they have the legs to stop those runners and recover the ball?
That is why PSG still dominates transition and possession-based teams, because they are one of the hardest-running teams in Europe, despite being a possession-based side.
If you build a team that can handle both style, then it works every game against anyone.
Mauricio Pochettino on why he left Chelsea:
🗣 "I didn’t want to continue. That was my decision. I spoke with Chelsea, but my staff and I were clear about our position. We felt we didn’t belong to the club’s way of doing things. We helped stabilise Chelsea, but had no interest in staying."

Gus Poyet explains why Chelsea lost to Sunderland:
🗣 “Sunderland went to the game with that old-fashioned mentality. Pressure from the fans, noise, tackling, (an) ‘I’m gonna run over you’ (attitude).
Chelsea went on to try to play. There was quite a big difference in that aggression. We see teams that are looking so much for an identity that they forget the process to win games.”
