Surprisingly, the team seems to function better without those superstars, highlighting Enrique’s tactical influence.’We are better without Mbappe’Despite domestic success, PSG has struggled in the Champions League this season and will face surprise package Brest in the knockout playoff round. A failure in that matchup could reignite questions about the 54-year-old strategist ability to lead the club to European glory.
