Grenoble – Vincent Hognon: “Toulouse is a bit like the PSG of Ligue 2”
After a defeat in Nîmes (1-3), Grenoble is still under threat from the relegation zone. And the mission will be difficult this Monday evening (8:45 p.m.) at the end of the 26th day of League 2 with the reception of the leader Toulouse at the Stade des Alpes. Before this shock, the coach Vincent Hognon spoke at a press conference. And he simply compares the Violets to PSG, leader of the elite, to measure the magnitude of the task that awaits the GF38, even if he also specifies that the TFC is not unplayable.

VH: “If we start the match against Toulouse like in Nîmes, we won’t go far. The TFC is a bit like the PSG of the L2. But Toulouse have also lost games against mid and late-table formations so they are not unbeatable. »

” The Nîmes match was a real disappointment. When we watched the video we saw that we could do much better but our start to the match was very disappointing. Especially 4 days after our first success for a long time against Niort. If we start the match against Toulouse like in Nîmes we will not go far. The TFC is a bit like the PSG of the L2. But Toulouse have also lost games against mid and late-table formations so they are not unbeatable. The key to our maintenance will be at home. It’s our pitch, our stadium, our supporters. We saw against Niort that even if there were few people at the stadium, we were pushed by the public on the strong moments and the weak moments. If we manage to treat all our matches with unfailing determination, the quality of our squad will recover and we will take points. But, each time, you have to use the right ingredients. And in order. »
