Luis Enrique: 'No doubt' PSG will improve in UCL

Paris Saint-Germain are top of Ligue 1 and have qualified for the round of 16 of the Champions League but there is much more to come from the team, manager Luis Enrique said on Saturday.

A 1-1 draw at Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday secured a place in the Champions League knockout stage and they have a four-point lead in Ligue 1 with the coach expecting further progress.

“I don’t have any doubts that we will be better. All my teams have improved as the months have passed,” Luis Enrique told a news conference.

“In February I have no doubt that we will have players back from big injuries, we are open to the transfer window and the chance of bringing in players. So why would I be negative or play the victim? I am an optimist, that is my nature.”

PSG finished second in Group F behind Dortmund but the Spanish coach is pleased with how they came through a tough group, which also included AC Milan and Newcastle United.
