Bruno Genesio revealed this Friday, at a press conference, that he was quietly sharpening a new blade for LOSC. This is symbolized by Matias Fernandez-Pardo and Jonathan David.
A good technician does not hesitate to be secretive to the press, and Bruno Genesio had carefully kept a secret for six months. This is none other than an unprecedented association between Jonathan David (24 years old) and Matias Fernandez-Pardo (19 years old) at the forefront of the LOSC attack: “I have already asked myself the question of associate him with Jonathan (David) to have a slightly more offensive animation in certain matchesreveals the Lille technician this Friday. The striker position is what he likes and where he likes to play.
Today, we use it more on the side, but it is part of our different possibilities. It offers versatilitylike Mitch' (Bakker), Aïssa (Mandi)… That's why I'm fully satisfied with my squad. Seeing Matias (Fernandez-Pardo) in this attacking role is a possibility »he assures.
These statements follow those recently made by Matias Fernandez-Pardo in the columns of MarkSpanish media: “My best job? In the axis, in false ninehe said from the other side of the Pyrenees. I can play on the wing, but I feel better as a false nine. I started playing more on the wing in Belgium, but I know that's not where I will play best.”confided the young protégé of Bruno Genesio.
The preferred performance
Let's go even further. Could Matias Fernandez-Pardo replace Jonathan David, who will undoubtedly sometimes need to take a breather during the second part of the season and only has a six-month contract left with the Mastiffs? This is a possibility, but it is not really current:
“Today, I am thinking above all about making the team as efficient as possibleretorts the LOSC technician. That's what I try to do in every match and Jona' is a very important player in the teambecause he scores goals, but also because of everything he brings to the game, in the development of our game, and in the spirit he exudes. I have rarely seen a center forward make so much defensive effort without the ball. He runs a dozen kilometers per match, and is indisputable. But there are so many matches that sometimes you might have to let him breathe. Momo' (Bayo) is there, Matias can also play in this position. I have also already thought about combining one and the other, because it could be a possibility of playing between two attackers, even seeing Jona reposition himself in ten. We know he can do it. Being able to modify associations is the wealth of my workforce”he concluded.
