You know, the Premier League is not what it used to be, especially for Ligue 1 clubs.
So it would have been better to try to get the weekend off between the two Bayern games, which I think are far more difficult to deal with than the two Chelsea games or the two Liverpool games, you know?
Yeah, and I think it was even worse to some extent for Lens because this would have been the league final, really, when it was supposed to have been played.
Whereas by the time this game is played now, for all we know, the gap might be a bit too big even for that game to matter, which is completely wrong.

The last PSG game was really different.
