The pace has slowed down this week. Cardiac and on the ground. After the crazy Olympic week, which was like a roller coaster for the Gym, the Rouge et Noir were able to recover physically and work tactically so as not to miss the reception of Angers on Sunday. “I told the players that it’s up to them what story they want to give to the game. Either we play like against Clermont and we face great disappointment, or we play like Lyon did against us.“It would be better to choose the second option to avoid falling from the podium, while Strasbourg can pass the Aiglons this weekend before receiving them in 8 days at La Meinau.
“Our team is not consistent.”
The schedule will accelerate by mid-April with clashes almost every weekend against direct competitors for Europe. Le Gym would therefore be inspired not to lose any new points on Sunday against these Angevins, who are also in the tough spot after three losses in a row. “We have no pressure in relation to this match but an obligation. We have lost too many points. We have to grow. At all levels. The players, the staff, the club as a whole. We have to ask ourselves what what we want to do with this ambitious project. Our team is not constant, whereas that is the hallmark of great teams.”
Gouiri should be there
To move forward in Ligue 1, the Gym hopes to be able to count on its top scorer. Hit in the thigh in Lyon, Amine Gouiri (10 goals) trained away from the group this week, but should be in the group on Sunday if we decipher the coach’s words this Friday. “Amine preferred to go out to Lyon as a precaution. He felt a point of contracture. Tomorrow (Saturday) he should train normally with usThe only certain absentees are therefore still Jordan Amavi and Youcef Atal.
