Christophe Pelissier, AJA coach: “We are in continuity”
“I told my players, during the preparation for the match during the week, that if we were as concentrated and solid defensively, both in our collective and individual organization, I was convinced that there would be shots to play to recover the ball because of the spaces which could be freed up quite easily at home. We had worked on it When we see the second goal, in terms of speed, transmission, desire to go from there. before, it shows the quality of this group and that the staff works very Well, there will be other weekends where it won't work as well, that's the reality of a match, but we're in continuity, we're progressing well in our defensive performance and I think we're better. more effective on our offensive animation, both on our transitions and our placed attacks We have this desire to move forward. This is what I ask of them, to be numerous in the area. , it is a style of play which is energy-consuming. But that's what I tell them: we must never show that we are a quality team but rather a quality group. Everyone will be concerned and tonight, it makes me happy that boys like 'Lasso' Sinayoko and Ado (Mrs.)who were not lined up at the start of the match, returned and allowed the score to be finalized by scoring the third and fourth goals.”
Gaëtan Perrin, AJA attacking midfielder and author of a double: “We see that confidence pays off”
“Everything went very well: 4-0, at home… We continue to move forward after a very good result last week away. I am really very satisfied with the content of the match, collectively, that was very, very solid. Now we have to continue working because there is a big match awaiting us on Friday. (in Marseille). But we go there with a lot of serenity and confidence in ourselves. There was a change in tactical setup, some adjustments were needed, which is totally normal, for everyone to go in the same direction. This is what is happening little by little. We see that it is bearing fruit. We had three good matches but the season is long. We have to stay in this state of mind and continue to do the job together. That's the key word: being all together in the same game idea, we see that it works very well. We see that trust pays off, it’s demonstrated on the ground.”
Hamed Junior Traoré, AJA attacking midfielder: “It’s the right formula”
“Perfect evening, we're happy. We tried to play as a team, and we've been doing it for a few matches now. We're working on it in training with the coach. We see that it's working well, we have to continue. It's the right formula for our system. We talk to each other a lot, there's a lot of communication, it's clear that all the players are on the same wavelength. We, the offensive players, put in a lot of effort. , it is due to the system, to our identity, that we knew how to adapt. We see that when we make the effort, we defend well and attack better. For several matches, we have been good at transitions, we play them well and we work a lot on that. training. As long as it pays off, you have to continue, it's a lot of effort, a lot of sacrifices. Each coach has their own playing system: 4-3-3, 3-5-2… Everyone has their own philosophy. . We talk quite a bit with the coach, who tells us listen too. We discuss how to put the players in good conditions. And I think we've found the formula.”
