“I was very brave last season when I said we would have a better attack and a better defense. I continue to say this, and the numbers confirm it. Everyone wanted Mbappé, but the team is responding positively, at a spectacular level,” said the coach.
Last season, while Mbappé was still in the squad, Luis Enrique stated that the team would perform better after his departure. On several occasions, he mentioned that the Frenchman’s mind was already set on Real Madrid, which he believed led to a below-par performance. The Spaniard also said that he prefers a squad where several players can score 12 goals rather than just one scoring 40.
