“The best football school in the world!”: Luis Enrique explains Dembele’s Barca edge

Luis Enrique believes Ousmane Dembele needs very little time to make a decisive impact, after the Ballon d’Or winner came off the bench to inspire Paris Saint-Germain’s 3-1 comeback victory over Strasbourg.PSG were trailing 1-0 when Dembele entered the action, but the French forward helped turn the game around in roughly 20 minutes, delivering the kind of influence that left his manager full of praise.##LINKED_NEWS_69915##Speaking to French newspaper L’Equipe, Enrique revealed the message he gave his star before sending him on.”I told him: if you play 25 minutes, provide a decisive assist and score a goal, then you don’t need anything more than that.

Its structure is unstable; it creaks, screws keep falling out, and so much is missing, but one of the most questionable teams in the history of the former European champions is slowly getting back on its feet. For starters, they have at least begun stringing together wins in the domestic league, recording their second in a row, this time against Angers (5–2).

The club from western France has long been a regular customer for the Velodrome giants. Over the previous ten years, the two clubs had met 20 times, with Angers winning just once. Even this Marseille side, full of holes and flaws, beat them comfortably. Marseille produced one of their best performances since the start of the season, putting f..
