Clermont Foot: Pascal Gastien announces several absentees
the Foot of Clermont is having a rather satisfactory start to the season in Ligue 1. Indeed, the men of Pascal Gastien, who plan to maintain, are currently in 8th place in the championship at 8 points already, from 17th, first relegated at the end some exercice. A place that allows the CF63 to be more serene before its matches. Good, because this weekend, on the lawn of AS Monaco, the Auvergnats will have to perform despite several important absentees for Pascal Gastien.
If the youth team has strengthened today, the A team of Foot of Clermont got poorer during the week. Indeed, as Pascal Gastien explained in a pre-match press conference, several absentees are to be declared to CF63. Indeed, Johan Gastien, Mehdi Zeffane, Jérémie Bela and Brandon Baiye will not be traveling this weekend, while Neto Borges and Yohann Magnin are uncertain for the match against AS Monaco.
Pascal Gastien is considering a system change for the CF63
These numerous absences, if they have been confirmed, could push Pascal Gastien to change the system. As he conceded in a press conference, “this is also a possibility. I have a day to find solutions. I need to see the doctor and think about it“. With these many absentees, the defense at 3 of the Foot of Clermont hardly conceivable.
Pascal Gastien could therefore choose to go back to four behind. Even if this composition is not the one most often worked on in training by the Foot of Clermont, this would allow the CF63 to have more individual quality in each position and avoid using players in a position that is not theirs. For the moment in any case, Pascal Gastien does not seem to have decided.
