According to Patrick Guillou, changes are coming to ASSE, and not just during the Mercato…
In his post-match column at Progrès, Patrick Guillou highlighted Nicolas Pallois' big game during the draw between ASSE and FC Nantes (1-1) last Sunday. “Very grouped together, the Nantes residents almost achieved a clean sheet, despite 73% of ball possession largely in favor of Saint-Étienne. Faced with the heroic Pallois, the spectacular turnaround did not take place. This green team still displays its reservations. The recent past of disappointments is knocking at the door. Even if it’s no longer “open bar”. A match which will remain marked by the seal of offensive impotence. »
“In the large caulked bed of those responsible, there is still room for six”
And the former defender added… “For the moment, the Larso gang is captivated by the song of the “little mermaid” of Norway. According to its leaders, the planets are aligning. The common base is being put in place. In the meantime, coach Eirik embodies and reinterprets the return of the green myth. It turns upside down before entering another dimension. » With this in mind, Guillou expects changes, whether on the management side or in the workforce. “In the large caulked bed of those responsible, there is still room for six. As with transfers, it’s not time for a big facelift.”
