Welcome into the edition of ESPNFC. I'm Tom Assuron in the studio today by

0:08.4

Ali Moreno. We did a nice public service for you today. We watched the nation's

0:13.6

league final, so you didn't have to. We'll be talking about that later on in the show.

0:17.6

But first let's welcome in, shall we? Franklin Pufis with us as Lewis Garcia,

0:22.3

Julie and Laurent as with us as well. As it looks like, PSG have got their new

0:27.5

manager, Charles Lewis and Rike. Is this right?

0:33.4

Yeah, he's almost done now. Final detail is to be sorted out. We knew that he was on the

0:37.6

shortlist and he was really the first one that they spoke a length with and then

0:42.1

knew your Nygrisman seemed to have over two came and Nygrisman was in the driving seat

1:16.5

other clubs looking for managers. I think when he saw the Chelsea job going to Pochettino,

1:21.3

already that was a bit of a blow to him. So then I think he thought that P.H.E. was probably the

1:27.4

best that he could get this summer and that he could be a really good job, interesting job.

1:31.6

And for P.H.G. there's a lot of things that they like about him, the personality,

1:35.2

even if he's not always easy to work with, but they like the strong personality,

1:39.2

they like the very clear identity and style of football. And the fight is a winner.

1:44.8

We mentioned the other days, 2015 Barcelona team as the base in the treble history.
