Clément expects even more, Baticle projects on Bordeaux
Zapping World Eleven TOP 10: The most beautiful Ligue 1 2021/2022 jerseys
Victorious this Sunday, against Angers at Louis-II (2-0), Monaco has just scored a seventh victory in a row in Ligue 1 and remains more than ever in the process of qualifying for the Champions League. Aware that there are still three games to play in this 2021-2022 season, Philippe Clément still wants to be demanding with his troops.
“We are a group built to go and win games. We stayed within our structure. The team remained calm and combative to score goals, not just to defend the result. It’s very important. t is that despite the absence of three important players lately (Tchouaméni, Vanderson and Disasi, editor’s note), their replacements have shown that they are capable of doing well (…) This team has not reached its limits. There are mistakes and potential to grow” declared the Monegasque coach, according to comments relayed by The Team.
“We are the SCO, we play the maintenance”
The speech was different for his Angevin counterpart, Gerald Baticle, who has just conceded a 10th defeat in 2022, but who refuses to panic. “We are disappointed. We had put ourselves in a position to do a feat, we came with humility. We put things in place to do this feat. We didn’t succeed. It’s a failure. Now , we must concentrate on Bordeaux It is a direct competitor. We must do at home what we have not been able to do here (…) We are the SCO, we play the maintenance (…) We went through a difficult period, which attacked our capital of confidence. Now, we find ourselves at the heart of the fight to maintain it. We must not give in to fear, to panic, to what does not help with serenity On the other hand, a team that plays maintenance must contain additional aggressiveness. You need more mental strength, individual and collective determination” explained the former OL assistant coach.
Next Sunday at the Raymond-Kopa stadium, Angers could take a huge step towards maintaining it in the event of a victory against Bordeaux, still 19th after their defeat against Nice (0-1).
