[Anciens] Dall'Oglio: “When I left, we were 11th. Today, they would all be happy to be in this place. »

Coach for almost a season and a half between 2021 and 2022, Olivier Dall'Oglio, before his reunion with the MHSC on Saturday evening, spoke in the columns of Free Midday on his passage in Hérault:

“It was brief, a little short. We didn't have much time. I think it was a team that was in transition. When we arrive, we lose Hilton, Laborde and Delort. The team performed quite well, but was losing these valuable executives.

We had to rebuild and, when we rebuild, there is always a period of fragility. I would have liked to stay a little longer to rebuild. That was the main idea since I had signed three players. We moved a little closer to the training center with work with young people which had begun. »

Former coach Pailladin returns very quickly to the executives, probably too absent as very often lately unfortunately:

“The general balance was there but we had to find the right frameworks. We see it here in Saint-Étienne, we lack executives. When there isn't one, it takes a little longer to work. That's a bit of the regret I have at the MHSC, they didn't give me a lot of time, even though we weren't in danger either. When I left, we were 11th. I think today they would all be happy to be in this place. »

The regional daily argues in his favor by highlighting the changes of coaches which never stopped after his departure: “You can change coaches twelve times… The difficulties were there. There is a transition that had to take place. Afterwards, there were some errors in recruitment. You must not make a mistake. If you take senior players, they must be present. Otherwise, it quickly becomes shaky. It's a shame. »
