FacebookTwitterFacebook MessengerPinterestEmail Paris Saint-Germain coach Thomas Tuchel is unconcerned by striker Edinson Cavani's shaky form in front of goal. The French champions thumped Amiens 5-0 on Saturday to make it 10 consecutive wins since the start of the Championnat season but the Uruguay international looked out of sorts and missed two good chances, while Marquinhos, Adrien Rabiot, Julian Draxler, Kylian Mbappe and Moussa Diaby all scored. "Yes, Edinson is going through a difficult moment," said Tuchel post-match.

In these situations, patience is needed -- the goals will come back. "I am sure that Edi will get chances to score against Napoli." Tuchel also confirmed that Marco Verratti and Angel Di Maria were substituted as a precaution and that captain Thiago Silva also did not feature because he needs them all fit to face Napoli in the Champions League next week. "Marco and Angel came off because they had muscle complaints," the German tactician said.

"I still have many friends in Munich. I do not want to react to his comments." Defender Thilo Kehrer admitted that he and his teammates are looking forward to playing both Napoli and Marseille next week but stressed that one is not more important than the other. "Le Classique is very important but the next match is always the most important," said the Germany international. "If we play well in the next game, we will then prepare for OM." Marquinhos, who was captain for the Amiens match and scored the opening goal, revealed that both first half goals coming from corners was no surprise - they were training routines. "It was a perfect evening," the Brazilian said.
