Lacombe impressed by PSG

24 September 2012 18:29

Former coach Guy Lacombe has expressed his admiration and high expectations for PSG, a team he already sees as one of Europe's elite.

The former Rennes boss believes that the side will almost certainly win Ligue 1 this season as they are far better than anyone else in the league.

"PSG are already so superior to the other (French teams)," the 57-year-old told Le Parisien.

"Paris (Saint-Germain) are built to win the championship, but are also built for the Champions League, where I already see them as a top-eight or top-four team."

The former French striker praised current PSG coach Carlo Ancelotti for his work at the capital club.

"Ancelotti has a vision and it fits perfectly. The game starts and PSG operates like an Italian team - strong and offensive," he said.

Paris Saint-Germain face Sochaux in their next Ligue 1 match before facing Porto in a Champions League group stage match.
