PSA coach Unai Emery is confident that after he received the right to a decisive vote in the staffing of the team, the Parisians began to get better.
Coach of Vice-Champion of France Unai Emery is sure that he knows how to very soon outperform Real Madrid and Barcelona.
"There was a time when I put an ultimatum to the president: either to my opinion on key issues in the team listen, or we will have to part," quotes Emery Marca. - The president made his choice and soon changed Patrick Kluivert, with whom we could not find any mutual understanding, on the new sports director Enrique Antero. But with him we quickly found a common language ".
"But I was interested not only in the change of the sports director, but also in the principles of the work of his department. When I only headed PSG, I was even glad that others make decisions on personnel matters, because I still did not know my wards well. But these times have already passed. PSG won many internal titles before me, but my task was to make the move that separates dominance in the national arena from battles on an equal footing with European grandees ".
"I'm not saying that we are now able to shift Real Madrid and Barcelona from the leading positions in Europe. Now we are in the positions on which Real and Barcelona are 10-15 years ago, but I assure that we will go our way much faster than the Spanish grandees did ".
Together with PSG for the year, Emery won the country's Cup, two French Super Cups and the League Cup. However, lost the championship of France in Monaco, and in the Champions League was shamefully defeated by Barcelona in the second leg of the 1/8 finals - 1: 6, despite the fact that he won the first fight with a score of 4: 0.
