The week has been eventful in Bordeaux with the departure of coach Vladimir Petkovic, and the interim provided by Jaroslav Plasil until Monday. But which team will field Bordeaux against Lens?
Jaroslav Plasil at the controls
It will be the first time that the former player of the Girondins de Bordeaux will be alone at the controls on the bench of the first team.
Nevertheless, he dodged his personal case at a press conference. Indeed, he specifies that the decisions will be taken jointly with the other members of the staff: “There is no number 1 or 2, we are together. I am not important, what is important is the club. I don’t want to talk about me. I do not count. We are here for a match and to do the maximum”.
However, the staff will have to speak with one voice and be clear to the players, before, during and after the match. This voice should be that of Jaroslav Plasil and not that of André Monteiro, the performance manager who arrived from Mouscron at the start of the season. They will have to agree.
Upheavals to be expected in the starting 11 ?
Will the assistant coach carry out a revolution within the workforce for this meeting in Lens? If relations and communication were not good between Plasil and Monteiro on one side and Vladimir Petkovic on the other, it is unlikely that the team will be upset in its organization on the ground.
First of all, Yacine Adli should be captain again according to Plasil, “There is already a captain, and a hierarchy. We will stick to what has been put in place” said the Czech.
In central defense, the Brazilian Marcelo will start alongside Ahmedhodzic in central defense. He is “ready” hammered the Brazilian yesterday in front of the media.
In front of them, Josuha Guilavogui will be in sentry position. If in attack the trio Oudin, Hwang and Elis were to be renewed except injury, the choice is different to occupy the sides and the position in the axis with Guilavogui. Onana, whose state of form must be analyzed after his return from the CAN, and Lacoux are contenders for 11.
In addition, Kwateng had to make his return on the right in place of Pembele who was too messy, individualistic and not efficient enough defensively. The same tactical organization is to be considered.
The communication of the group this Saturday evening should give an element of answer.
So we could have this team:
