The defeat in Monaco a misstep in the dynamics of the Girondins?
20 goals in 9 games is the worst result since the 1959/1960 season! Period when the Girondins regularly follow the lift between the first and the second division. And Sunday’s match was not really reassured with his three goals conceded in the principality. Even more worrying, the lack of reactions to which the Marines and Whites had accustomed us since the start of the season. It’s the feeling of Romain from Girondins4ever.com which has the impression of looking back on the last season. Benoît Costil warned at a pre-match press conference that the team was still fragile. It has been confirmed. What is most worrying about the last performances for Romain is that we did not see the same fighting spirit, the same values that the team had demonstrated. So that is a bit of a downside.
Failing to act, the Girondins used to react.
And just before a truce where we have many players called up in their respective selection, it is never easy to start off on a good basis. We stop on a defeat before a match which is extremely important against Nantes since not only is it a derby, in addition it is the birthday of the club. The Girondins will indeed celebrate their 140 years on October 17 against the Nantes. This sentiment is shared by Yon Ecenaro at the head of the @nandochachalana twitter account. For him, the state of mind was not there on Sunday, because since the start of the season, failing to act, the Girondins have given us the habit of reacting. And there was a flat encephalogram. There was no general reaction and it is a bit problematic. It means that this time, the coach did not find the words, the solution at half-time.
Onana: only one being you miss and everything is depopulated
For Yon Ecenaro, this is explained by the absence of important players, finally a player in particular. A player who was a little the renewal of the team, who brought this grinta in the middle, it was Onana who, in two games, brought us this punch, the ability to project forward. For the influencer with 41,000 subscribers, even if he has only played two games with us, we already feel that he is a spearhead of this organization, of this team block. Another look, that of Nelson Dias, General Manager of FC Mérignac Arlac, For whom we have this year a game that is more towards the offensive, with full-backs who also take the corridor much more than in previous seasons. So, inevitably, it also creates spaces in the back, and we saw it in particular on the second but of Monaco, where it already starts from their half of the field and they play behind our defense. These are the situations today that will pose a problem for us.
A problem in the axis with the Fransergio / Otavio association
Vladimir Petkovic must find a collective balance, that everyone is concerned because the first defender is the attacker recalls Nelson Dias. For his part, Romain from the girondins4ever.com supporter site believes that the problem is above all the axis, with Fransegio and Ottavio, it is a tone below. And what is worrying for Romain is that we cannot speak of acclimatization, since the two players are Brazilian and therefore speak the same language. The integration of Fransergio arrived this summer from Braga should be facilitated by Otavio present at the Girondins de Bordeaux since 2017. of season (by snatching the draw against Rennes in particular), but who in a match always commits one or two balls.
The next series of 4 matches brings us to the third of the championship!
Sometimes they are rectified and there is no goal. We are always a little on the edge, observes Romain and all that makes it extremely fragile. And we will have to settle that, but with a lot of absentees during the truce and an acclimatization that is not yet 100%, it will be complicated to conclude Romain. The next meeting for the boys is therefore on Sunday, October 17 against Nantes for the 10th day of league 1. Before the next truce for qualifying for the World Cup (November 13 and 16), Bordeaux will receive 3 times Nantes, Reims and PSG for a trip to Lorient. We will be a third of the championship and the first truths will undoubtedly be there.
