Laurent Blanc pleased with PSG effort in win

Blanc pleased with PSG effort in win

Paris Saint-Germain manager Laurent Blanc has said that he was most pleased with his side's effort in winning the ball back but refused to get carried away as his team swept aside Toulouse on Saturday.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored twice as PSG won 5-0 at Parc des Princes to temporarily move 13 points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 table.

Blanc admitted that his team are playing "very well" but insisted that he was more pleased with the grit and determination shown by his side rather than the attacking flair on show.

"In the first half, I was most pleased by everyone working hard to win back possession," he told reporters.

"We needed to focus and show the right attitude, to always want the ball. I told the players that they would be coming on and they showed their worth off the bench.

"35 points from a possible 39? It is a good thing. My team is playing very well at the moment."

PSG next face a trip to Lorient in a fortnight's time after the international break.
