“Montpellier last? Sometimes football is surprising”

While the Greens host Montpellier this Saturday evening (7 p.m.) at Geoffroy-Guichard, Louis Mouton spoke at a pre-match press conference on the challenges of this meeting between two poorly ranked clubs.

Louis Mouton: “Il There is this match against Montpellier coming up, we know that the MHSC is in our championship, that they are fighting with us in the race to maintain it. It will be very important, we must maintain our good momentum at home, we will have to perform well. During the break, we worked a lot on video, we studied our positive points and our weak points after the match against Lyon. If the internationals were able to join their selections, the others, we worked on our side to make people forget the failure of Lyon, against Montpellier.

They are last and yet there are some great individuals in Montpellier, which shows that football is sometimes surprising. They have very good players but individuals are not everything. As a team they had a little more difficulty even if they won their last match (editor's note, victory against Brest). On the other hand, we know that when their players are at their level, they can turn a match around. If I sent messages to the former Greens (Khazri, Sacko, Nordin)? No, there's no need, I'll stay in my corner, we'll meet on the pitch.

After the complicated start to the season defensively, the coach wanted us to find a certain solidity. This is being resolved, everything is not perfect yet but we have made progress. Now we will have to tackle the task of attacking him in order to create more opportunities for our attackers who don't have much to get their teeth into. We need to give them more cartridges so they can make us like it.”
