AS Saint-Etienne : “We have the opportunity to compete against LOSC” | ASSE News

Which group will you have for the trip to Lille?

Jessy Moulin has resumed racing this week. Harold Moukoudi suffers from a small hamstring injury and will be unavailable until the end of the season. We have some uncertainties, especially around Pape Cissé. We will take stock tomorrow (Saturday). Yvann Maçon continues to progress with the reserve. “

Have you set a goal for your players in the last two games, knowing that the top 10 is not far away?

“I prefer my team to focus on an opportunity to play Lille, which contend for the title and are three points ahead of PSG. She has shown a lot of consistency throughout the season. We have the opportunity to compete with her. After that, of course it’s important to finish as high as possible in the standings. But I want to always refer to the principles of the game and the competitive spirit that has to go with it. Even if we’re saved, it’s interesting to play this kind of game. “

Is this your biggest adversity challenge since the start of the season?

“When you see where we’ve been throughout the season, I don’t know if we can graduate from the challenges. We have suffered seven defeats in a row, faced the pandemic sometimes with a decimated squad… We have faced so many things that we cannot say that Lille is our biggest challenge of the season. “
