Clément shows his confidence, “I am sure that physically we are better” – Sport.fr
During a press conference, Philippe Clément was categorical: AS Monaco is preferred tomorrow against PSV Eindhoven.
“Favorites? That’s an interesting word for the newspapers… (He smiles) For me, mentally, we are the favourites. Because I am sure that physically we are better. But we have to prove on the field. And they have the advantage of playing at home, in front of their supporters. But it’s not that important. The two teams are very close, each with their own qualities. We want to show that we were the better team in both games. We were on the first as shown by all our opportunities. We will try to be again. »
The Monegasque coach also takes the opportunity to take stock of absentees and returns. “Caio (Henrique) is in the group (he was positive for Covid last week). Benoît (Badiashile) and Myron (Boadu) are not there. It was borderline, but it wasn’t enough to be in the group. They did however train: Benoît did all of today’s (Monday) session with the group and Myron a part. But we need 100% players, not 98% or something like that. »
