What They're Saying
Lille manager Rene Girard (via Ligue 1): "There's a lot of disappointment [following a 1-0 loss to Bordeaux]. We regret what happened today [Week 15] because in the situation in which we find ourselves, everything is going against us. We tried to play. We had just got back from a long journey. We perhaps didn't have the juice, but when you see how the match went, we have to be disappointed."
PSG manager Laurent Blanc: "It is true that our play is distinctly average, but in terms of points, what we are doing is not bad. We could hide behind the fact that we are winning games, but we would also like to play good football. We would like to be better. We are working on it and it will come. The best is yet to come."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: PSG's Lucas Moura has been instrumental in the club's early season success in 14 league appearances, the 22-year-old has six goals and an average of 3.4 take-ons.
