Laurent Blanc plays down Edinson Cavani frustration following substitution

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc insists that Edinson Cavani's frustration at being substituted against Troyes merely shows that he is serious about competing.

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has played down the extent of Edinson Cavani's frustrations after the striker was substituted in the club's victory over Troyes.

Cavani opened the scoring for the Parisians in the 4-0 win, but was replaced with 10 minutes to play for youngster Jean-Kevin Augustin, leaving the frontman to visibly vent his anger as he left the pitch.

"Cavani wasn't very happy - I can confirm that," Blanc told reporters after the game.

"But [players] are never happy [to be taken off] and I can understand that.

"If established players have no motivation, we will play young people. They will be happy to play, but I think the established players that I have are currently serious."

The victory has given PSG a 15-point lead over second-placed Lyon in the Ligue 1 standings.
