premium Clermont Foot: a second wind to quickly find
However, the current accounting reality of the men of Kovacs, current 13th in Ligue 1, is less glorious since the ASM is only rich with two victories, acquired in front of Troyes and Saint-Etienne, this Wednesday, two poorly classified. A bad record that Pascal Gastien also tempers: In terms of points, I have seen practically all their games, I think they have many more points than those they have collected since the start of the season. They played very good games, they weren’t successful but they hadn’t lost their game. They are in what they can do and what they can do is very good, in my opinion. “

And on what the players of the Rock offer, precisely, the Clermont technician is just as dithyrambic: “They have chosen something in French football. Last year, it was one of the best teams. That I love to see. playing because it’s a balanced but attacking team, a team that is smart, that reflects on the game. Honestly, what they practice is everything I love about football. “
Praises are also addressed to the players themselves: “Their players of the formation are all international hopefuls and afterwards, they only have international A’s. So there is a great quality. I found players that I ‘ve seen at the hope center in Châteauroux, like Diop, Badiashile… When I was in Châteauroux, I saw them very young, they grew up well, they worked well, well advanced. Volland, Ben Yedder, Tchouameni… Another one times, it’s a big team, there is no doubt. And me, it also makes me happy that this team can come to Montpied so that people see what the very high level is. “
