Luis Enrique

PSG's net spend over last 5 years is 580m. And they've really only spent big in summer 2023 when they started this rebuild.

For comparision Arsenal (556m) and Spurs (571m) have similar net spend over same period. United's is 690m and then ofc Chelsea 935m way ahead.

So while they've spend a lot they've also spend smart/on the right players (ofc also some flops but they've hit with most signings).

They have finally started to put the team ahead of individual stars. Nasser has let football people (Luis Campos and Lucho) do their jobs. (Something that Sheikh Mansour did in City from the beggining. Txiki and then Pep when he joined had sporting decisions in their hands.)

They were putting no pressure on Lucho like you have to win the CL this year or you're gone as they've done with coaches in the past. It was actually Lucho (knowing he's a winner that's not surprising) who expected that from himself. He never cared about Ligue 1. When they've won it last season he didn't celebrate and took no pictures with a trophy. He went there to win the CL and now he delivered. He would not touch that team if they would still have Messi, Ney and Mbappe. He was also relieved when Mbappe left while sheiks and fans were crying.

So that's what most people (including me) give them credit for. On a sporting level they are now finally runned like a professional football club.

What's behind it's another story.

Chatgpt.com disagrees with you. See below:
Estimated Net Transfer Spend (2018–2023)

While precise annual figures are not publicly disclosed, available data suggests that PSG's net transfer spend during this period is approximately €792 million. This figure represents the difference between the club's expenditure on player acquisitions and the income from player sales over these five years.

Yes, this is why he is the best Barca coach since Pep, no doubt about that.

Nah, Enrique's achievements are a bit better than Flick's who is also amazing.

Enrique's 14-15 Barca team is statistically the greatest club team and season in football history.

175 goals scored, only 37 conceded in 60 games

50 wins in 60 games (all time record)

12 W in 15 games vs. RM, AM, Bayern, PSG, Juventus, Man City

Best version of Messi alongside 2011 Messi. Messi that season put up 90 G+A. 90!
