The Paris Saint-Germain coach has said that his team will compete with strength in every competition this season and also spoke about the form of the Argentine international and the dependency on Ibrahimovic
With his customary smile and relaxed posture, Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain coach, Carlo Ancelotti responded to all the questions thrown at him during a press conference ahead of the Clasico against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127 at the Parc des Princes.
Although the game against their eternal rivals is a Coupe de la Ligue tie, the Italian tactician says that all players who will be playing the game would be aiming for nothing less than a win.
Les Parisiens are unbeaten in the league and have lost just once this season (Champions League group game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186) and Ancelotti says that he might once again field Zlatan Ibrahimovic in his starting XI.
“He showed no signs of fatigue. We will take the best decision for the team and himself. He wants to play. We bought him for the better of the team. The team also works great for him. There is no problem with being dependent on Ibrahimovic.”
With Ballon D’Or the most discussed topic in football these days, Carlo Ancelotti feels that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029 is very likely to win the much revered trophy next year even though he wants to see his player win it this time around.
“He may be more likely next year as he has not won titles this year. I think it will be Messi or Ronaldo for 2012. But as Mourinho voted for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734, I will say Ibra.”
Another player that Ancelotti wants to be more decisive is the eternal enigma in the shape of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Pastore-c18082. Despite having so much potential, the playmaker is still struggling to live up to his billing. And, the Italian tactician says that Pastore is still
an important player of the team and has the whole support of the squad with him.
“He did not play well against Marseille. I want to give him confidence. Everyone thinks that he can do better. He has improved, but he can still be better. I think PSG’s game will improve if Pastore improves.”
