AS Saint-Etienne : Puel’s backpedaling! | ASSE News

The coach of AS Saint-Etienne will again rely on his experienced men for the reception of Angers, this Friday (9 p.m.). A situation that was still unimaginable a few weeks ago.

It is in a turbulent climate that AS Saint-Etienne will try to trigger a dynamic of success against Angers, this Friday evening (9 pm), in a match counting for the 15th day of Ligue 1. The Greens have found some colors, stopping the bleeding of defeats by making a consistent copy against Dijon, last weekend, despite a disappointing score (0-0). One observation calls out: Claude Puel once again relies on experienced players.

Puel puts its trust in its executives again!

While Stéphane Ruffier should be fired, several seasoned elements had been sidelined in the recent past by the technician, such as Wahbi Khazri or Ryad Boudebouz. But the ASSE coach has shifted his focus, aware of the limits of his young guard in a downward spiral. Boudebouz replayed, Debuchy and Kahzri started a week ago.

This should still be the case against the SCO. The Tunisian international is expected on the attack front, supported by Romain Hamouma. Bouanga and Nordin are expected on the flanks, with a midfielder associating Camara and Neyou. Finally, behind, the Stéphanoise defense in front of Moulin should still be articulated around the Moukoudi-Kolodziejczak hinge, with Debuchy and Trauco on the sides in this classic 4-4-2.

The probable line-up of Saint-Etienne against Angers : Moulin – Debuchy, Moukoudi, Kolodziejczak, Trauco – Nordin, Camara, Neyou, Bouanga – Khazri, Hamouma.
