The return of Will Still to Champagne left the Rémois with headaches.
This Friday, RC Lens opened the thirteenth day of Ligue 1 nicely in taking over an authoritarian success in Reims (0-2), while Will Still returned to familiar territory. With only one victory in the last six matches, the Rémois are going through a difficult period, and Luka Elsner ended up letting his anger speak after the match, in front of the press.
« This is one of the most difficult analyzes of my career. My team was devoid of any substance, both physically, technically and tactically. I include myself in the observation, because I failed to motivate my troops. I have the impression that we were waiting for something to revive us. But this does not exist in football. We must create the conditions to revolt. Even the entrants got into the negative mood of the evening. It is unacceptable to miss this point. I am extremely sorry for our supporters, who made the effort to come in the cold », blurted the Slovenian technician. The start of the crisis in Reims? In any case, Elsner does not seem to rule it out: “If we don't say things to each other and pretend, we won't get very far. A real questioning must be carried out. »
The message got through.
Will Still makes a successful return to Reims
