If the AXIS is bad, Paris FC is not much better. Captain Cyril Mandouki presented himself to the press this Friday afternoon. The opportunity to get back on the bad form of his team and to discuss tomorrow’s match at Geoffroy-Guichard.
Cyril Mandouki : “After this start of the season, I try to have a cold vision. We are not where we wanted to be. We are clearly in trouble. You must have your head straight. There we have the feeling that we have a few more problems at home. If we take only the external budget, we are not disgusting.
It is at home that we fail to get the points, we work hard, we find ourselves where the problem lies. Only the results will make us better. In content, we’re not even on the road. We know we have quality players. The mayonnaise hasn’t made it home yet. Outside, I repeat to them that the record is respectable.
We have problems in the opponent’s zone and in ours. When we watch the match against Valenciennes we don’t suck, we only concede one goal, we lose 1-0. Even at 10, we weren’t ridiculous. We don’t score enough. We take too many goals on the few chances we suffer.
We will try to be more rigorous on these two surfaces. We feel that it is precisely on this that we must emphasize. The squad has changed a lot, but the squad is what it is. There are good players. There are young players. They all have the level. It is up to us to question it. We are the problem, we are on the pitch. We have to work even harder. This is how it will work.
I’m not even talking about a climb. Make people happy and be more consistent at home. Otherwise, it’s not worth it. I don’t have much to say outside. It’s at home that hurts your head, and at the accounting level.
Paris FC have DNA which means that when you score you don’t get any. And even if we don’t score, it’s complicated to score. In fact, at this start of the season we don’t take too much. The mentality is still there. We know that in the head it will be necessary to be strong. In Ligue 2 we always have opportunities to score, so we don’t concede any goals. The mood must be better, but we haven’t lost it.
Some players have left, I’m not one to feel sorry for myself. They are gone, they have been replaced by quality players, we have to move forward. There are no black sheep in this group. I do not care. You just have to raise your head.
Last year we weren’t better on the pitch, we scored a goal from a corner kick. And sometimes without being very good we have won. Victories bring confidence. Here, if you lose 10 likes against Valenciennes, you enter a spiral … At the end of the game, we are no less good than last year. We are simply lacking in efficiency.
Coach Laurent fits the group he has. His goal is always to win. And that we are at the highest point as he repeated yesterday, we are all in the same boat. If we play maintenance tomorrow, he’ll be served as badly as we are. he didn’t let go. We are together.
It is a match against Saint-Étienne, which does not require motivation. Outside, at home, they find their audience in a full stadium. So it’s going to be a great match played at 3pm. We have to make up for the misstep against Valenciennes. You can’t do two bad performances in a row. “
