Quite annoyed by the entry into play of one of his players this Saturday in Lens, the coach of FC Nantes, Antoine Kombouaré, did not hesitate to bring him out immediately or almost. He justified this choice at a press conference.
The crisis is starting to rear its head at FC Nantes. Without a victory for nine games and a success in Montpellier (1-3) on August 31, the Canaries let slip three points which were outstretched to them this Saturday evening in Lens. Antoine Kombouaré's group conceded two goals and finally lost to Bollaert (3-2). If the results are clearly on a downward slope, the attitude of certain players did not please Kanak at all, who justified the exit of Sorba Thomas, although he came on at the end of the match (in the 80th minute), after only ten minutes spent on the pitch. The Welshman, although performing well since the start of the season, did not have the behavior that was necessary according to the former coach of PSG and Dijon for Nantes to maintain a result which was up to the goal of equalizing the Sang et Or one of the great operations of the weekend.
Kombouaré criticizes the entry into play of Sorba Thomas in Lens
The 60-year-old was asked after the meeting about the choice to release Sorba Thomas, which looked like a sanction: “When we see his comeback, that’s not how we can take at least one point. He can take it as a sanction but I make choices. There are attitudes and behaviors that we should not have but he is not the only one”he said on the sidelines of this defeat in the final seconds. The 25-year-old, who scored one goal in eleven league games this season, committed several turnovers in dangerous areas of the pitch and was replaced in added time by Jean-Philippe Gbamin. The truce will do good for the people of Nantes, who continue to fall in the rankings. Now fourteenth, the residents of Beaujoire will have to get their minds back in place before hosting Le Havre on the next day in an already very important match between two poorly ranked elite teams.
