Tuesday afternoon, Claude Puel spoke of the Greens’ trip to Bordeaux scheduled for Wednesday evening at 9 p.m. (17th day of Ligue 1). The ASSE general manager fears this meeting in Gironde, marked by his reunion with Hatem Ben Arfa, which he relaunched in Nice.
What squad do you have at your disposal for this match in Bordeaux?
“(Panos) Retsos and (Gabriel) Silva cannot be called upon. “
Greek media have reported an end of loan for Retsos. What is it?
“I don’t comment on nonsense coming from abroad. We’re trying to cure Panos for an inflamed pubic area. He was injured in Game 3 after having played five and a half games in a short period with the national team (under-21) and us. Which he hadn’t done for a long time. “
What match do you expect in Bordeaux, a team that takes few goals at home (2) while yours is struggling to score?
“It’s going to be very difficult. It’s the best defense at home. They are very compact, defend very low. They take advantage of Hatem (Ben Arfa), who is able to be forgotten and string together very hard individual raids. This team is dangerous and solid on its foundations. “
