After a defeat against a direct competitor for remaining in Ligue 1 (Angers, 4-2), it is now time for ASSE to welcome an attractive RC Strasbourg-Alsace at the start of the season. Under the orders of Liam Rosénior, striker Diego Moreira spoke about his team at the microphone of RMC.
“We have the means to reach the top of the Ligue 1 rankings”
Third in attack in Ligue 1, but more in difficulty in defense, Strasbourg this season revealed a forward-looking playing identity. Diego Moreira thus looks back on the atmosphere that reigns within the locker room before facing ASSE.
“We have a very united group, almost like a family. We often talk about it among ourselves, we motivate each other during each training session. I believe that we have the means to reach the top of the Ligue 1 ranking. perhaps it is still too early to know if we will succeed, but I am convinced that by maintaining this determination, it can take us very far.
With the coach, we have not set ourselves any limits: there is no precise ranking objective, but it is a dream for all of us.”
The new Guardiola at RCSA?
Arriving in Strasbourg this summer, Liam Rosénior is already attracting Ligue 1 observers. The one who relies on data and video was still unknown in France before the start of the adventure. The former Hull City coach, admirer of Pep Guardiola, advocates the beautiful game. Diego Moreira explains.
“Liam Rosenior is a very tactical person, with a remarkable sense of management. Whether with young players or the most experienced. He is a person who has a clear vision and a well-defined idea of the game , and I doubt anyone can change his mind.
He knows exactly what he wants, and every day, he transmits his ambitions and his playing philosophy to us. We all adhere to his way of seeing things, and that pushes us in the same direction, which is really positive for the team.”
