A cruel figure for the Violets!
While the TFC had executed its season well, Philippe Montanier’s men have been on the downhill track for 3 days. The fault of a frightening statistic confirming the problems of realism posed against Toulouse.
Toulouse FC can’t do it anymore. After three conclusive first days with a victory against Troyes and two draws against Nice and Lorient, Philippe Montagnier’s men had accelerated their season rather well. Since then, the Violets have been on a downward track. The latter remain on 3 consecutive defeats, respectively against Nantes (3-1), Paris (0-3) and Clermont (2-0). But it’s not really the defeats that challenge. Rather the lack of realism. While the Toulousains had scored 7 goals in 4 days, they have remained silent for two games and a frightening statistic confirms the lack of offensive efficiency which affects the workforce of the Tefece. Of the last 36 attempted strikes, Brecht Dejaegere’s teammates have scored no goals. A rather incredible figure which, if it continues to grow, could be an important factor in the race for maintenance. The rest of the calendar is rather lenient for the residents of the Stadium who will be keen to regain their rhythm as well as points to take off in the general classification (15th) before the international break and move away from the red zone. This requires a good meeting outside on the lawn of the Stade de Reims on Sunday.

Despite the lack of realism, it is also a lack of success that strikes the club on the banks of the Garonne. Since the start of the season, the TFC has hit the uprights 4 times. Thijs Dallinga is the unluckiest player with 2 attempts repelled by the bar and the opposing post. A bad pass that will have to be overcome for the Dutch center-forward who arrived in Toulouse during the summer transfer window, in order to regain confidence and find the way to the nets which he has already shaken twice since the start of the financial year 2022/2023.
