…INJURIES

Kevin is out. He started to return to individual training. Stijn is under contract with Lens and will not be able to play this weekend. Mikkel has good feelings in training, he hasn't played in a while and we hope he will be in the squad.

...TEAM MENTALITY

After a defeat, it’s always negative, you’re never happy to lose matches. We especially didn't want to lose this cup match and be eliminated so early. Now the most important thing is to learn from this and know what to do. You have to live the moments 100%, be concentrated at every moment of the match. Otherwise, you pay cash.

…FUTURE

We knew that January would be a complicated month, with the CAN, the various injuries, the absences, the transfer window... Now, we are focused on the future, because we are closer and closer to having the complete group. This week, the feelings were rather positive during training. I hope that we will restart a positive dynamic, even if we remain on a victory in Ligue 1 in Metz.

…TRANSFERS

On the arrivals side, it’s much calmer! “We think in the short term but also in the long term in order to strengthen the team and consolidate it but on one player. We cannot stack players in the squad. There is also financial data and a budget to manage. There are things we can't do.

…MASSADIO LEAVE

I never wanted Massadio to leave. In any case, even less so if no one arrives. He has been there for a long time, he is a pillar of the team and the reconstruction of the club. He is important in the locker room and I don’t want him to leave.
