The winter break was not enough to fade the momentum of LOSC, which still captivates Elton Mokolo. The columnist, on the radio waves RMCrecently highlighted the work carried out by Bruno Genesio.
“We need to talk about Bruno Genesio”launched Walid Acherchour, columnist at RMCconsultant at
DAZN. This is how a Lille debate on the airwaves turned towards the LOSC technician. At the dawn of the reception of FC Nantes, while the winter break has just ended, the Mastiffs are challenged and will have to repeat their past exploits in order to achieve a successful second part of the season. In the meantime, it was still time to take stock in the show
Generation Football and the good results bagged by the Lille team over the last six months have put Bruno Genesio in the spotlight.
“Bruno Genesio is not afraid”
“I'm not always enthusiastic about his teams, but
the feedback I have, particularly on his management, is unanimously positive,
recognized Walid Acherchour this Thursday, on the radio waves
RMC. He's a great guy, a great coach, a great manager, everything is going very well, he's not selling us dreams… We have often had debates about the necessary rotation between Ligue 1 and the Champions League, and there too it is a big tip of the hat. »
In addition to the pure management, the tactical choices were also praised: “What he also does against Olympique de Marseille, the fact of going very high, there are ideas and ambition. He is a coach who is not afraid, in his management and in his choices. I am thinking of the match against PSG, for which he sanctioned Jonathan David, Rémy Cabella and Thomas Meunier and is ready to go to war with Mohamed Bayo. I'm thinking of Ousmane Touré starting against Atlético. This rotation sometimes did not pay off in the moment, but over time, he reaped the rewards. Hat “he concludes for his part.
No relapse in sight
Unlike his friend, who ended his analysis with a rather pessimistic touch, Elton Mokolo does not see the Lille dynamic declining. The columnist believes that the challenges ahead are too important for there to be devolution: “Today, for me, the LOSC results are the merit of Bruno Genesio. We saw him in Rennes and Lille, he is today a project coach. When he has a roadmap, you have a certain continuity.
What is very good is that you have a month of January which is very demanding and that should avoid decompression. There is Marseille in the Coupe de France, the trip to Liverpool, the reception of Feyenoord. There will be no period of euphoria, in the sense that the schedule is very demanding and this can only involve everyone in achieving all of the objectives.starting with Ligue 1, then the Top 8 in the Champions League”he said, with a big smile. Fingers crossed.
