We imagine that you are not satisfied after this new setback away…
That's the least we can say. We cannot be satisfied with this kind of match, content, commitment. There were maybe one or two players who played their part, but there were too many players who were really below their level. Collectively, you clearly go down a notch when, individually, the players are too weak compared to what we wanted to put in place.
Do you have a feeling of déjà vu?
We have the impression of not learning the lessons from the matches we lost, like in Montpellier or Auxerre. What's terrible is that once again, the first time they enter the box, they score. We don't make things easy. In addition, I didn't even find a reaction, when we sometimes had a semblance of one in certain away matches. This evening, I found that indeed, the team was really too weak compared to what it is capable of producing. It's disappointing, because I think it was certainly the most important match of the month, which allowed us to reposition ourselves in this championship where we want to exist.
Is this worrying?
Playing like that, we will have to fight until the end to maintain ourselves. You have to be aware of that. There's no point in worrying, but you just have to be aware that at this level, it won't be enough. We will have to improve.
We still had away matches this year where we were quite good, perhaps not in the same competition. When we won in Reims, we still had a good match. It doesn't make me angry, but it disappoints me. I sincerely think that we must do much better. I want to say that all the matches that I mentioned before, that we lost, we often shot ourselves in the foot. Me, I accept being beaten for a stronger team. We experienced that this season, against PSG, against Barcelona. Teams where you have to recognize that it's a step above. What I don't like is when we are beaten because we are not at the level we should be. It’s funny because the first sentence of my talk was: “Tonight, we want to maintain the dynamic. I only ask you one thing, and that is to be at our level. » And we largely weren't.
