Tuchel: 'Focus on our own game'

Paris Saint-Germain coach Thomas Tuchel spoke to the media at the traditional pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday's BKT Coupe de a Ligue quarter-final against Guingamp at 21:05 at the Parc des Princes:

SQUAD
"All the players are available except Kimpembe, who has a groin strain. We won't take any chance with him and prefer to wait a few days. Cavani, Marquinhos, Verratti and Di Maria are all ready, but we have to be careful, so it's not sure that they will play on Wednesday. Who will be on goal? I haven't decided yet. I have to speak with Gianluigi (Buffon), Alphonse (Areola) and Spino (Gianluca Spinelli), the goalkeeping coach."

GUINGAMP
"Guingamp have changed a few things in recent weeks, starting with their coach. They have won their last three matches and have some confidence back, and defensively they have improved. We are expecting a tough game against a very organised side. Our challenge is to be patient and attack with pace. We need to focus on our own game. Guingamp have a lot of good, fast players and are good in one-on-ones. It will be important to maintain our structure. We need to play with confidence to get the win."

FIXTURES
"We have a lot of matches coming up and we want to win them all, irrespective of the competition. We not just preparing for the matches against Manchester. It doesn't work like that. Every match is important and we need to find solutions for each and every match. You have to deserve to play here. Paris Saint-Germain has a great squad and big objectives. I will choose the players that show in training that they are ready to play. The week in Doha will be very important to train to be ready for the next 17 matches, playing every three or four days. We have the two extra matches, against Montpellier and Dijon. It's not easy to accept, but that's the way it is. We need to be ready, to train hard and be professional because I've never had to play 17 matches in a row like this. But when you play for Paris Saint-Germain, you're not allowed to take your foot off the gas. It's a big challenge and we have to accept it, even if it will be hard."

NEYMAR JR
"I think he's very happy. He is very professional and makes the difference in every match he plays. He has a great attitude and is happy on and off the pitch. He is very disciplined as well at training. I think he wants to show that he's capable of being a leader for Paris Saint-Germain. He is in great form, but not yet 100%. He will be in top form in a few days or weeks. He's important because he's a key player, capable of making the difference."
