Luis Enrique was asked about the level of English clubs and whether they are currently a step ahead of the rest of Europe:
“Obviously, the English teams have a very high level. But this is a competition [Champions League] that still has a long way to go. We’ll see in February-March which teams are currently struggling and can recover, or which teams are doing well but wonβt be at that level anymore.
“Itβs clear that thereβs a team like Arsenal, who are currently first in both competitions, and who practically concede no goals and is at a very high level, but the Champions League involves different situations and weβll have to wait.” π

Be careful with that guy, because he will hit the opposing players when his team is losing ππ
Arsenal again being talked about when not even being involved in the match
I liked Luis Enrique but recently the success has gone through his head and he's become very arrogant. It doesn't suit him to talk like this and mention Arsenal when we have no business together so far.
Hope we meet him with a fully fit squad this time.

As an Arsenal fan, this is a good answer.
Arsenal is causing earthquakes around the world.
It's true…… As Enrique said in future anything can happen. Like last season we lost to PSG due to injuries to key players. The same thing can happen this season also. So there is no point in gaslighting certain clubs just because they secured more points. Knock out phase is entirely different.
The CL really starts from the quaterfinals. This is when you usually see the best 8 go at it. Arsenal, Bayern, PSG and Inter Milan will all be there
Looks like whole world is trembling because Arsenal is dominating football.
Arsenal now is scary to every teamπππππ
Still salty Chelsea manhandled his dogs for 100m and the inaugural CWC trophy
He spot on as years gone by showed us come February been our accolades heel but this team is strong enough.
no worry till arsenal jam psg again
this time gooners will smoke ya ass
Class person class coach! β€
"Wait until feb/march when we're 40points ahead in our farmers league and the english teams are still competing until april" psg are a fraud of a club πππ
You'll all recall that PSG looked a very average team when we beat them at home in the group stage last season. Then roll forward to the knockout stages and it's like they were a different team. Let's enjoy the moment as Arsenal fans but not get too far ahead of ourselves. Nothing is won at this stage of the season.
Here we go again Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal. Does every football video need to be about Arsenal. If they win the CL at the end of the season and I think they can, then let's talk but for now let's just talk about the teams playing. They are probably the best team right now but I don't want to keep hearing about it over and over.
Why does no one talk about my team Madrid, we won 15 CL and no one talks about us.
What heβs trying to say is βthe premier league is very tough. By February and march those teams have gone through wars and are battered. I play in a cupcake league so my team will be fresh. In that situation I favor us in the knockout stagesβ
Just 1/3 of the season gone so far.
Wait till atleast 1/2 the season and we'll see where we (Arsenal) are.
Chelsea, Brentford, Villa in 6 days is going to take a toll.
Liar
Perfect answer
Heβs right. Thatβs why they won last year. The only team that rest their xi every bloody week.
Ahh yes, in March and April when all the farmer leagues will be wrapped up and PSGβs squad will be well rested we will find out
as arsenal fan i dont know why all top manager talk about arsenal,,, your club good as well,,,
Absolute common sense. Unlike certain players he's not buying into the media hype.
At this point I'm watching saudi Arabia league press conferences, they might be taking about arsenal too
The PL is clearly levels above any other league
You can't really ask him this because last season and the game the other day Vs spurs they have successfully got rid of England's finest the competition had to offer from who qualified
Did the answer have to involve Arsenal?
The best of other leagues are as good as PLs best. But bottom 10-12 teams of other leagues are nowhere near bottom 10-12 of PL.
It doesn't matter how well a team is doing at the moment, on paper or have been doing all season. What matters is whether they show up during matchday, especially in a knockout competition.
Liverpool were in the same position as Arsenal last season, top in both the Premier League and the Champions League. PSG barely made it in the league phase, but eventually beat Liverpool, Arsenal and went on to win the competition.
Why is everyone obsessed with Arsenal?? Ask questions related to PSG.. We know all about Bundesliga and French ligue are farmers league
This is infact a very brilliant answer ππ½
There's no journalism anymore, there's propaganda
Exactly nothing is won right now. The key is being in peak form for the end of the season with key players fit.
Let's remember that PSG swept away ALL Premier League teams last season on their way to glory… STAY HUMBLE cos we've won F all so far! π€·ββοΈ
One thing is funny about the comment section. There are many Arsenal fans. COYG
Right answer
They should replace the word premier ligue with Arsenal league because it's Arsenal that is scary there
Too much respect for this man. Arsenal are just doing their best there is too much noise from rivals and the media
