Paris Saint-Germain's new coach Unai Emery on Friday (26th August) talked about the Champions League draw and their Ligue 1 trip to Monaco

SOUNDBITE: (French) Marco Verratti, PSG midfielder:

(on PSG's group in the Champions League)

"I would not say it's a good draw because these two teams (Arsenal and Basel) are the strongest in their countries. We can't look too far forward in this competition - we have to get through the first round, it's always difficult, it's going to be complicated, but our goal is to finish first in the group"

SOUNDBITE: (French) Unai Emery, PSG coach:

(on the game against Monaco on Sunday)

"They are a really good team, motivated by their qualification for the Champions League. For us it's the third match of the Championship. It's a very difficult trip."

SOUNDBITE: (French) Unai Emery, PSG coach:

(on his vision for the team, his management):

"I want a very competitive team, with a lot of competition for places. Who's the best (player)? He is the best? He could play. If he's injured then another will play."

SOUNDBITE: (French) Unai Emery, PSG coach:

(about his strategy this season and for the Champions League):

"I think it's better to think match by match, step by step. Thinking that winning in Monaco on Sunday is the best way to prepare for the game against Saint Etienne (10th September). And after the first game of the Champion's League against Arsenal, the goal is clear, we want to finish first in the group."
