Trying to improve my defense

He's incredibly entertaining to watch, I hope he gets more playtime next season to be fully prepared to replace Neuer

Despite all the frustration lately, this team is moving in a very promising direction under Kompany. With a few smart signings next summer in key positions and better squad depth, we can dominate Europe in the coming years and I see us winning the champions league next year. They deserve support till the end of the job.

Wouldn't harm to have a second goalkeeper on the field like the one PSG had yesterday

“It’s obviously tough to take, we lost narrowly. We matched PSG, these games are decided by small details. Our first half was good, I felt that we were the better team and often got into the areas where we’re dangerous, but PSG defended the crosses very well. They were very active. Although we got into dangerous situation, they made sure we didn’t get the final shot off. The basis is always the energy, which the team showed again. Sadly we’re not the final. We have to acknowledge that we played against great opponents. The Champions League is over for us for now, but there’ll be more moments, more opportunities and that’s also great motivation for me. The level of both teams was very, very high. PSG have so much quality, they’ve probably been the best team in Europe in the last two years. We’ve played against them five times now – we’ve won twice, lost twice and drawn once. We tried everything, I have to say. Congratulations to PSG, but we’ll try again.”

On preparation:

"Total calmness, focusing on routine and preparation. I’m always looking for that extra 1% for the team."

On playing style:

"We won’t change our style. We play to win at home. In the end, what matters is winning, no matter the score."

On the match:

"If neither team drops back, there won’t be many moments. We want calmness, to build on what we’ve done and not waste it."

Fitness:

"Aside from Serge Gnabry, everyone is ready. That’s a big difference from last season."

On the fans:

"There’s a strong connection between the team and the fans. Together, we want to create an unforgettable night."

Penalties:

"We’ve been preparing for them for months, everything is planned."

Playing philosophy:

"It doesn’t matter if it’s attacking or defending, what matters is scoring more and winning."

Tactics:

"No major changes, just small details that can make the difference."

Mentality:

"Don’t play the match before it starts, everything in its time."

Facing PSG stars:

"This is the highest level, sometimes the defender wins, sometimes the attacker. You need full focus for 90 minutes."

On Luis Enrique:

"I don’t like comparisons, but PSG are among Europe’s strongest teams recently. They have quality, experience, and a good age balance."

On the full-backs (Davies / Laimer / Stanisic):

"All are important, but with different qualities."

On Laimer:

"Aggression, speed, and good decision-making."

On the match (again):

"I don’t feel pressure, I’ll sleep normally. It’s a big game, but it doesn’t change how I work."

On player freedom:

"Football is a players’ game, not the coach’s. I support them in making decisions on the pitch."

On Mikel Arteta’s comments:

"It’s about the match schedule, not criticism of England. The pressure is higher, something Jurgen Klopp has talked about often."
