According to a report by the Spanish daily 『Marca" on the 2nd (local time), Enrique preached the 'Law of Minimal Information" theory while coaching Barcelona and Spain's national teams. The theory is that rather than providing too much information to players, it only delivers the least possible information.
In past interviews, Enrique said "We are trying to provide the players with as little information as possible. Sometimes the leader says too much."
"It must provide indispensable, essential information, and above all, information that will be satisfied. Players must be able to meet the information on the field. If players don't understand, what's the point of coming up with five ideas for the five aspects of the game?," he added.
Then there's a good saying, "'If I had time, I would have written a shorter letter'. This is a part of our reflection with the players. We've been thinking about what message to send to the players for months. It's to make sure the players understand it enough when I deliver the message."

Based on this 'Law of Minimum Information', Enrique gave the first treble in PSG club history. PSG swept the French Ligue 1 championship, Coupe de France, and the European Champions League. On the 1st, he lifted the big year with a 5-0 victory in the Champions League final against Inter Milan with an overwhelming performance. Enrique achieved his second treble in his personal career in 10 years after Barcelona in 2015.
Although Lee Kang-in did not make the Champions League final stage, he stood tall as a confident member of the treble with six goals and six assists in a total of 45 games. It is the first time in 17 years that a Korean player has lifted a big year since Park Ji-sung (at the time Manchester United) in 2008. Lee Kang-in is the first Asian player to win the treble.
