Liverpool manager Arne Slot said that Paris St-Germain is “the most complete team that we have faced so far” before his draw of the second-rank Champions League.
PSG was superb last week and forced Alisson to a high-level career performance before Harvey Elliott’s late goal gave the Reds a narrow 1-0 victory.
Slot has promised that his team will be more proactive in Anfield Tuesday evening And he does not intend to sit on their advantage.
“Is there a difference (leader 1-0)? No. We are trying to play every game to try to win, “he said.
“This is also what we tried to do last week, it was not our intention to be so weak (deeply) all the time.
“Tomorrow, we want to play a different game, the intention is always the same – we are not going to go for a draw.
“In Manchester City, it was not the situation, at PSG, it was not the situation. But we gain confidence in our home match against City where we had the ball much more and it was much more an equal game. »»
When asked if it would require their best performance under him so far, Slot has added: “Yes. I think so. This is the most complete team that we have encountered so far.
“We have faced Arsenal and City and these are not big margins, but the intensity they (PSG) play quality – and they are one of the richest clubs – and a great manager with which it is not easy to play.”
Slot was stimulated by the return of striker Cody Gakpo after an injury. The winners of the tie will face the club Brugge or Aston Villa in the quarter -final.
PSG boss Luis Enrique said his team could not wait for the legendary European atmosphere in Anfield.
“No team player will not want to play here. It is a legendary stadium in the history of football in Europe, ”said Enrique.
“It’s a huge motivation for players and as a team. We want to show that we are able to play a good game in the Liverpool stadium. “”
