Luis Enrique's current squad is excellent, but he must also consider other factors, such as recruiting reserve players.
No matter how good a club's performance, it will eventually face injury problems, and Enrique must be aware of this.
At least, this season, PSG's reputation has been truly impressive. Their strength is full of spirit, and their winning mentality is very strong. This is when they truly become so solid. From being initially doubted due to the departure of several top star players, Luis Enrique has finally managed to lead PSG to such great success this season.

And Luis Enrique is also very confident in their strength, but, still, they must be extra sure and careful when facing Chelsea in the final match of the FUFA Club World Cup. Don't let their confidence destroy what lies ahead.

At the start of the season, everyone was predicting a “post-Mbappé collapse”. People acted like PSG was going to turn into a mid-table meme just because the superstar payroll was gone. Fast forward, and Luis Enrique has taken that “crisis” energy and built an absolute machine. The data does not lie: 26 wins, only 2 losses in Ligue 1, and every single trophy in sight, including smashing Real Madrid 4-0 in a Club World Cup semi. Even more telling, they have got 18 different players scoring. You cannot buy that kind of collective mentality with one superstar

But, you nailed it: Chelsea is not a walkover. PSG's biggest risk right now is not the opponent. It has always been themselves. They have already dropped points against “smaller” teams (Reims, Auxerre, etc.) when they thought they would walk it. Now you throw in suspensions to Pacho and Hernandez in defense, and suddenly Chelsea's attack actually has a target. If Enrique lets the dressing room buy into their own hype, it is textbook football hubris. He needs to keep them in siege mode, not parade mode, or that storybook season will have a nasty twist ending
