“All my players are scared of him, no one has agreed to mark his yet…We’re finished”: PSG coach Luis Enrique names ONE Arsenal’s player all his players are scared to mark ahead of their Champions League semi-final clash

Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain are set for a high-stakes UEFA Champions League semifinal clash, with just 180 minutes separating them from a spot in the final.

Although the two sides met earlier in the group stage, one pundit says that chapter is best left in the past.

The Gunners punched their ticket to the semifinals with a confident 2-1 win over Real Madrid in the second leg, capping off a dominant 5-1 aggregate victory.

Luis Enrique comments on defending Arsenal’s set pieces

Ahead of the match next week, PSG manager Luis Enrique spoke with the media on Monday and he was asked about defending set pieces against the Gunners as Declan Rice scored two incredible goals in the first leg against Real Madrid.

Here’s what Enrique had to say about this concerning issue that the Ligue 1 club need to prepare for (h/t Canal Supporters):

“We’re going to prepare for it the same way we did against Liverpool. It’s a team with at least as much potential as Arsenal. We won’t prepare our team specifically based on that aspect of the game. We use direct or short corners depending on what we feel is most effective and dangerous for the opponent. I believe we’re operating at a very high level.”
