Nantes has turned the page Christian Gourcuff. After a last setback against Strasbourg (0-4) on December 6, the Breton coach was dismissed the next day. His assistant Patrick Collot has been in charge since the interim, with a first draw against Dijon this Sunday (1-1). Facing Reims this Wednesday (7 p.m.), another in bad shape, the Nantes people will try to find the way to victory that has eluded them since November 8.
“We were ass between two chairs”
At a press conference on Tuesday, Jean-Charles Castelletto spoke of the changes since the takeover of Collot, without citing Gourcuff, even if the technician seemed well targeted by the words of the defender. “We have to tell each other things. Sometimes we have to go in a hurry, other times we have to adapt a lower block when we are having difficulty. These are the things that we did not have during the 14 first games of the season, said the Franco-Cameroonian defender. We did not really know whether to press or retreat because we had to do the round back. We are relearning these things to have a block that can knowing what to do at the right time. That’s the best solution. “
If he participated in 7 meetings with Nantes this season, Jean-Charles Castelletto was not necessarily satisfied with the tactics of Christian Gourcuff. “We were with our ass between two chairs. Our block was stretched out, we are in the process of settling all that, said Castelletto. We know what to do, we learn it on video, it’s up to us to apply it during the games.”
The situation is tense in recent days in Nantes between the departure of Gourcuff and 14th place in Ligue 1. A hundred supporters expressed their dissatisfaction on Sunday, notably demanding the resignation of Waldemar Kita.
