AS Saint-Etienne : ASSE: Moulin or Ruffier, Saint-Etienne hits hard and fast | ASSE News

The AS Saint-Etienne goalkeeper was in difficulty on Sunday against Nice. And inevitably, Ruffier being in the stands, Moulin knows that the critics will not miss him.

Undisputed holder in Saint-Etienne goals since the start of the year, Jessy Moulin has not been to his advantage against Nice, the ASSE goalkeeper being involved in two of the three Riviera goals, even if his defenders do not. clearly have not helped. And Moulin knows it, given the violent controversies that there were between the leaders of Saint-Etienne and Stéphane Ruffier, his performance against the Gym was quickly going to be a subject of conversation and especially controversy, some being quick to point out that Ruffier was still a goalkeeper for the Greens and that he could quickly return to his post. But AS Saint-Etienne’s number 1 goalkeeper didn’t have too much to gamble after that dirty Sunday. Because Claude Puel was keen to put an end to any speculation about this position.

The ASSE coach, whose relationship had become apocalyptic with Stéphane Ruffier, has no doubts about Jessy Moulin. And the game against Nice will not change his mind. ” Why is its responsibility engaged? I absolutely do not agree. On the first goal, he is used to throwing things up and going back to the axis, where Yvan Neyou has an easier time. On the second goal, he shouts: “Leave!” and unfortunately Sow stops and touches the ball with his foot which deviates the trajectory. A gag goal on which Jessy had nothing to do with it. He makes a double front parade which shows his qualities », Remarked Claude Puel, who trusts his porter and refuses to revive the debates on the position of number 1.
