Zapping But! Football Club RC Lens: The question of the week
“Dolphin of PSG two days ago, RC Lens has come to a halt. Very marked stop in Brest (0-4) and that the Sang et Or did not know how to turn into a mishap against Angers last Friday at Bollaert (2-2). Afterwards, we must also put things into perspective. Racing keeps a comfortable mattress. For Lens, it is a question of confirming the good season 2020-21. Despite his last hiccups, Franck Haise’s proteges remain at the top of the table in the fight with the teams with European objectives.
I really don’t care about the RC Lens. The players are mature and responsible enough to get back into it. We could not have made Franck Haise one of the very best coaches in Ligue 1 to start criticizing him after two less good games. It would be worrying if Lens no longer played its game but, in the last matches, Racing has kept its philosophy well marked … Even if there is a little less success and mistakes that did not exist. In a season, we can experience slack. Lens is in a small negative spiral, in an air hole. What I remember is that Lens remains a pleasant team to see evolve. A loss and a draw in two games is not very alarming either.
“No reason to worry so far”
At the moment, some executives like Seko Fofana, Jonathan Clauss or Kévin Danso are a little worse off. Obviously, when the best performing players on the team are less successful, the team is less good. But it makes sense: players can’t stay in a high state all the time either. With the possible exception of Kylian Mbappé at PSG, who can boast of being efficient from the 1st to the 38th day? It’s almost impossible, even for very great players like Neymar or Lionel Messi … It can happen to anyone to be average at some point. There, it happens to three to four frames of RC Lens at the same time but there is no reason to worry so far.
Racing is almost guaranteed to evolve in Ligue 1 next season, still has chances of securing a European Cup, can also shine in the Coupe de France … Lens still has something to look forward to. We have to go through this period a little more complicated but it can come back very quickly and why not from the next match Wednesday in Clermont? “
The RC Lens column by Denis Balbir
For Denis Balbir, there is really no need to worry about RC Lens and this even if Franck Haise’s team is going through a small period less well after his defeat in Brest (0-4) and his draw against SCO Angers (2-2).
