Laurent Blanc "surprised" by Paris Saint-Germain attack

Blanc "surprised" by PSG attack

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has admitted that he was surprised by the amount of chances his side created at the weekend.

The Ligue 1 champions enjoyed a 2-0 win over Toulouse at Parc des Princes on Saturday, thanks to goals from Marquinhos and Edinson Cavani.

The Parisians had several opportunities to add to the scoreline in what Blanc felt was a fully-warranted victory.

"Compared to our win in Valenciennes, this one was much better," Blanc told reporters. "It was a deserved win. That's six points from two matches, and 18 points from eight.

"Still, we can do better in terms of our cutting edge; I've been surprised at the number of chances we've been creating, especially at home, but we're not putting enough of them away. If we can lift our conversion rate, we'll see some spectacular games."

PSG host Benfica in the Champions League on Wednesday.
