Former Rangers boss Le Guen took over from Guy Lacombe on Monday, after the Parisians slipped to just one place above the relegation zone at the weekend.

Le Guen's first match in charge will be the midweek game at home and his players are hoping to see some of the skills that lead Lyon to three consecutive French league titles from 2003.

"He's someone who achieved things with Lyon, who has experience of the French first division. We're hoping to benefit from that experience," said PSG striker Bonaventure Kalou.

"But it's not just down to the coach. We all have to roll up our sleeves, listen to him and get down to business."

Injury-plagued midfielder Jerome Rothen added: "We're in a dangerous situation. The important thing is to concentrate on Wednesday's match which we desperately need to win.

"It's tough today but the situation is very real, we're in a fight against relegation. He (Lacombe) made mistakes but so did we. We're also to blame for this situation."
