Paris Saint Germain defender David Luiz is in buoyant mood ahead of his team’s Champions League quarter-final tie against Manchester City this week. The Brazilian identified Sergio Aguero as City’s main threat and Luiz knows he will have his hands full marking the Argentine.

 

“’City have had a tough season but they are still a big club with amazing players. We know Sergio Aguero is amazing. We need to pay attention because he can decide a game and he’s a match-winner.

 

“It will be a great game, a classic maybe and everybody is buzzing to take part in it. It is really important that we are at home first. OK, it is two games, 180 minutes but we have to start well and get ourselves into a good position.”

 

But Luiz thinks that training with Zlatan Ibrahimovic every day will stand him in good stead, ‘You know, this guy is brilliant,’ David Luiz told the Daily Mail, “He’s an amazing player but he’s intelligent and clever with it too. He is getting better with experience, I think. He knows the positions to pick up, how to conserve energy, how to exploit defences and win games.

 

“’How do I cope in training? I kill him!’ Luiz joked. ‘But no, we are doing an amazing season here, we are not conceding many goals, we have had a lot of clean sheets. I’m happy with my game and with my team-mates.”
