I also see this in PSG now, PSG is better without star players because in the last few matches PSG has always won big. It can be said that PSG without Mbappe plays more freely, more collectively, so their game is compact. In the squad if there is a player who is too favored and has a very high salary with other players, it will not be good for team cohesion and Enrique is aware of that. Enrique is indeed the type of coach who prefers team cohesion rather than relying on individuals, very different from previous coaches, this was also seen when Mbappe was still at PSG, he did not rely too much on one player.
Enrique is indeed known to be extraordinary in building cohesion within a team and this has been seen again in PSG now so it is also very natural that PSG wins a lot without the influence of any individual because all players try to play as well as possible in every match there is. I also want PSG to be much stronger than last season so that there will be tougher competition in the Champions League later because in Ligue 1 PSG only face ordinary teams where PSG can win a lot without pressing with deadly attacks.
Frankly speaking I didn't know that PSG can perform this better without Mbappe, until he left we were able to see the potentiality in the players like they are all good in their respective positions. Enrique has really made huge improvements for the club and we can all vividly see that no player is too important in the club as the unavailability or absent of any player cannot stop the team from being better. I also have same sentiment that they gonna become more better this season since they don't have any player as being very outstanding like the way they monopolized Kylian Mbappe until he left the club so they will make huge improvements in the Champions League this season and it will really feel so good if they make it to the champions league finals this season and possibly win it.
