“Paris Saint-Germain is undoubtedly one of the top teams in Europe at the moment. We need to set that aside and focus on our own game. We have a great opportunity to bounce back from our slip-up against Sochaux. We need to replicate the performance we showed against AS Saint-Etienne two weeks ago, securing a 1-0 victory. We must display a different mentality on Friday night to satisfy our fans. Motivation for such matches will naturally be high,” explained Monnet-Paquet on the club’s official website.
The French striker of Rwandan descent draws motivation from Lorient’s unbeaten record at home against teams in the top five. Nonetheless, Lorient has not defeated Paris at home in five years. “PSG boasts a formidable team, including a highly efficient midfield and internationally renowned players. Since this season, they have developed their own style of play, characterized by strong ball possession, enabling them to control matches from start to finish. In my view, PSG has no equal in France in terms of technical ability. They prove it time and again,” added the former Lens player.
