Despite a double degree in Spanish/Communication, I decided to take my dreams into my own hands by moving towards journalism. With a master’s degree in sports journalism, I cover sports and football news with as much admiration as ever for the transfer window, when a club has to make crucial choices for next season.
This summer, ASSE had to compose its summer transfer window by taking into account its rise to Ligue 1 as well as its rather tight budget. Speaking to Rothen S’enflamme, world champion Christophe Dugarry violently criticized the management of the Saint-Etienne club, whose results are clearly not up to par.
The start of the season of ASSE is scary. After a rise in the elite which of course delighted the supporters, the club of Drill is experiencing major difficulties. With only one victory in five matches, for one goal scored and fifteen conceded, the team ofOlivier Dall’Oglio begins to sink, as demonstrated by the terrible setback suffered at Nice last Friday (8-0). A performance that left its mark on the Saint-Etienne locker room.
“So with a club bought, this is the squad they have there?”
The training center of the Etrat has been vandalized, the players insulted, in short, nothing is going well Saint-Etienne. Present at the microphone of the show Rothen Ignites, Christophe Dugarry spoke out vehemently about the current situation of ASSE : “The club was bought, right? So with a bought club, this is the squad they have there? I looked at the squad, the team composition, it’s catastrophic! They took the guy from Bordeaux? Do you realize that he was a starter, Davitashvili or I don’t know what! At Bordeaux, he didn’t have his place. He was already a substitute in Ligue 2.”said the former striker.
“When you concede eight goals, the damage is deep. The team is not up to standard and will struggle all season.”
“The evil is deep”continues the 1998 world champion. “When you concede eight goals, the damage is deep. The team is not up to par and will struggle all season. The team is not up to par. I don’t understand how a club is bought and there is no budget to strengthen. Because you don’t have to recruit, you have to strengthen.”concludes Dugarry.
