AS Saint-Etienne : It’s not a sphinx who wants it, is it not Claude Puel? | ASSE News

Zapping Goal! Football club ASSE: Top 10 salaries for the 2020/2021 season

“My dear coach, even though, like everyone else, I am freaking out about the future of our dear club, I would like you to hear this letter, which you will read as much as the previous ones , takes very little account of the current results of our dear club.

Like Kipling, I know how to receive victory and defeat like the liars they are, on the same front. And then I know no matter what, the season is going to end with you and in all likelihood the next season is going to start the same way. But if I had welcomed your arrival and the beginning of our common adventure with a certain interest and the conviction that it was your moment, without being disillusioned, I admit that I now see you only as the need not to systematically undo what little has been done. It’s neither very romantic nor very romantic, but I do not believe that apart from the fact that your departure would hurt our finances, it would have no immediate effect on the development of the team. So, since we have to live together for some time to come, there are things I would like to tell you so that, if I don’t get excited, I can at least tell myself that I am living in some security.

“When you are asked a question, you start with a pfff whose duration is as long as a period that elapses this season between two goals from Bouanga”

The other day, I was saying on the ornithological social network, that I was pitying the journalists for having to slack off the same press conference for 18 months. What happens inside you so that you go from bubbling over when you give your instructions on your bench to totally asleep when you arrive in a mixed zone? When you are asked a question, you start with a “pfff” that is as long as a period that elapses this season between two goals from Bouanga. Then, the answers that follow immediately make us regret the “pfff” which has the merit of being more expressive. Your tongue of wood would repopulate the Canadian forest 4 times. But why ? Perhaps it is the succession of games behind closed doors that makes you forget it, but Saint-Etienne is not Monaco. We need to get excited and, failing to do it by results, it could be achieved by prospects. But there, what do we hear, “we must strengthen the physical density”, we must get up after the slaps “, I saw interesting things”, “the team does not have the results that it deserves ”. Yes and ? You know, my dear coach, it’s not a sphinx who wants to. I’m not saying this because I think you compare yourself to him, I know your lucidity.

“Please, a little more spirit, a little more pedagogy, a little more sincerity”

I am talking about the sphinx because he was the only one who was passed over to be unfazed on his bench regardless of the outcome. We were like, Roby knows what he’s doing and if the facts don’t prove him right today, it will be tomorrow. You, we see your compositions and your coaching, often we do not understand anything, and, even though the results are not there, you serve us a trickle of lukewarm water. My dear coach, the episode of January 30, in that it was peaceful but suddenly, should have made you understand that, behind the journalists to whom you are responding, there are the supporters who need to be reassured. Not thanks to fairy tales but thanks to someone who develops their project for them every week and tells them why and how to continue to believe in it. I do not mind that you are neither Galtier nor Gasset and that communication is not your strong point.

But hear that your way of expressing yourself pushes the supporters most able to analyze on the side of the spinal cord who call for your departure on the air of the lanterns. As Father Jules would say, I haven’t changed and I still want stability for my club, which is why I don’t want you to leave now. But, please, a little more spirits, a little more pedagogy, a little more sincerity. I know you have the means to keep us going, thank you for telling us a little more often.

Your very devoted.
