By playing three defenders who hadn't been there between 40 and 70 days, I think it wasn't so bad. When we find more elements, there is more quality in training.” Next week heshould recover Tom (Louchet), Moïse (Bombito), Ali (Abdi) as well as Jo Clauss, back from suspension.»
“An unworthy lawn”

He also liked “the energy put into finishing the match“, as he appreciated Evann Guessand's match “by sequences». «He can do morehe continued. I will be even more demanding. When you want to go to the very high level, you need more. But he touches on some things that are important.»
Jorge Sampaoli, he deplored “unforced errors“, Who “caused the team to lose». «The 3-1 in the first half seems harsh to me and we could have reached the break with a draw, he said. Then we tried to attack. He lacked a little creativity when Nice fell back a little.» Sampaoli, who believes that Seko Fofana «is not yet 100%”, also recognized that “Steve's (Mandanda) situation is complicated due to rumors that affect him as a human being and despite his experience.»
