Cisse: For PSG Tuchel a step up from Emery

Former PSG midfielder Edouard Cisse believes Thomas Tuchel is a step up from his predecessor Unai Emery.

Tuchel replaced the Spaniard, now in charge of Arsenal, as new PSG coach this summer.

Cisse said, "Have I seen Tuchel? Yes, and congratulations to him. I like his posture as a coach. I watched him closely during the drink breaks (in the Super Cup).

"His attitude, very serene and quiet, contrasts with that of his predecessor (Unai Emery).

"He gesticulates less, he discusses more. He communicates and exchanges. He does not give orders. His type of management pleases me and appeals to me. It is suitable for Parisians. They can flourish. They feel really comfortable."
