Blanc expects ´much better´ from Ibrahimovic

Paris Saint-Germain star Zlatan Ibrahimovic can do much better , according to coach Laurent Blanc.

Ibrahimovic has started to return to form after a slow, and injury-interrupted, start to the season.

The Sweden international has scored in back-to-back Ligue 1 matches ahead of Sunday s clash at home to Marseille.

But Blanc believes the 34-year-old, who is just a goal behind PSG s all-time leading goalscorer Pauleta, can do more than he has recently.

I want to give Ibra more time on the pitch, as I gave more time to all the players who were back with the team, Blanc said.

I think Ibra can do much better, but I think make him play more can help him to get back on a top level.

For the rest of the next matches if the group remains with such good quality players, it will have competition between them. And I will preserve some players as Ibra.

With 108 goals, Ibrahimovic is just one behind Pauleta – who netted 109 times for PSG from 2003 to 2008.
