We certainly had three results which were less good or less positive than in the first part of the season. There are a lot of reasons that could explain this, a bunch of things that could be behind it. I'm not going to make excuses, we weren't good, we weren't good. I think every team in Ligue 1 UberEats has had matches like this. Unfortunately for us they were chained together.
It's up to us to find the keys to being as fresh and energetic as possible, something we haven't necessarily been in recent matches, and to find a unit and a collective balance that will allow us to win matches.
It’s a really good team. There is a collective that is European today. But beyond that, I believe there is no good or bad match to play. We know it’s a very good team, we know what we have to do to be good too. These are things that we simply didn't know how to do or didn't know how to put in place in the last match.

Franck Haise
Manager on Lens…INJURY REPORT
Machado is still unavailable. Long-term injured Jimmy Cabot no longer shows any negative effects when his knee is subjected to stress.
…OUR PERFORMANCE
We had a series of 3 matches in eight days, here we will have 5 matches in two weeks. We are very attentive, with strength tests on D+2, D+3... I have an idea of what I am going to do to bring freshness, bring competition. The group is homogeneous. There is obviously a need to change some players each time. There will be a little more than 14 or 15 days to share the game time.
…REIMS
Our video analysis work for Reims is coupled with our analysis of our last match. This is very condensed, we will analyse Reims later, with a look back at our Friborg match, and a second part on Reims tomorrow morning.
