We cannot be unhappy when we are Clermont, when we are in the first division, when we have the smallest budget and when the players do their best. Everyone can estimate that compared to last season we are below. Yes. But it is not a problem of will. I think we are all doing the maximum. No player wants to be in Ligue 2 next year.
It was a long time. I don't remember such a nightmare for over a half, except perhaps in Rennes two years ago. Lille were very good. We must first pay tribute to what they did. But we helped them a lot. We were scattered, always late... We reacted more than we acted, once again. The gap between the two teams is logical. It's part of moments in a season and here we are in a particularly complicated moment. We wanted to put pressure on them so as not to let them play . But we were late all the time, so they were able to combine between our lines and did it well.

Manager on Brest…DOUMBIA
I had no problem playing Kamory Doumbia in Paris. He had rested a little, and then it's the best way for him to get rid of the disappointment of the last match. He will have a role to play in our return group.
…ABOUT MATCH
We keep a lot of humility before going to Clermont. We know that a year ago we were in their situation. We will have a battle to fight. I think we will spare certain players and give some time to others. We saw the 4-4-2 in…
