Actually, I really understand the situation that Enrique is currently experiencing because he is under pressure from the PSG owner to immediately improve PSG's performance to win the title in the Champions League and League 1, whereas currently only Kylian Mbappe is still very reliable but it is very difficult to combine Enrique's strategy with Mbappe and of course I also still appreciate the coach's efforts because it is not easy to bring PSG to a higher level, whereas in the past Galtier, who had 3 star players, also failed to bring PSG to a higher level.
For now, it seems that Enrique needs to better understand what makes it difficult for the club to reach competitions other than League 1 and related to the Champions League, indeed PSG condition is also very difficult to maintain because their performance is a little bad in contrast to last season.

Perhaps at this point, we have a slight difference in viewpoint regarding PSG. according to my understanding and point of view, now PSG is no longer continuing the mega project with big star players like when it was filled by MNM. IMO, PSG's current philosophy has changed, although not completely. IMO, this time the PSG president is not targeting to win the Champions League trophy. There are several factors that I have taken into consideration in my personal analysis, but it is clear that what I am about to say does not justify the truth.
We can see that currently PSG is changing its philosophy and prioritizing young players who will make good progress in the future. and maybe that's why Enrique is willing to become the new coach of the French League giants. If the Club's target is the Champions League, as an experienced coach Enrique is very aware of the available players and only relies on Mbappe as his only pillar. he will find it difficult to make it happen, moreover, most of the players available are not players of his personal choice. I see it from another point of view, this time PSG is trying to build a foundation first like City did at first. Because of that, Enrique is motivated to build PSG in his style into a stronger team.

Just imagine, just relying on Gancalo Ramos, Kolo Muani, as well as several less well-known players, how big a chance PSG has as a candidate to win the Champions League. What is worth noting and remembering is that the two current PSG strikers are not players who are ready to be used as goal scoring machines. they will need time, at least to reach their level of play. So, their current goal is more at the stage of establishing PSG for the next few years. It seems like they are trying to follow in the footsteps of Manchester City. Unfortunately, clubs always buy players without involving the coach beforehand. Ideally, PSG should replace staff such as sports directors or technical directors with people who are experts in their fields. thus, the trainer's task is a little lighter. as I said in the previous post, gradually PSG will find its rhythm and return to being at the top of the standings. btw, what I said is completely personal assumption.
