Annoyed by the dismissals of several Ligue 1 counterparts, Nantes coach Antoine Kombouaré stepped up to the plate.
Peter Bosz (Lyon), Michel Der Zakarian (Brest), Jean-Marc Furlan (Auxerre), Oscar Garcia (Reims) and Olivier Dall’Oglio (Montpellier) have all been dismissed since the start of the season. A slaughter recalling how precarious the position of coach is in the world of professional football. For Antoine Kombouaré, this situation is untenable. The FC Nantes coach ranted against the presidents of the elite, who place the coaches on an ejection seat a little too easily for his taste.
Kombouaré defends his colleagues: “it’s really unfair”
“It’s hard to explain, you have to ask the leaders instead.. But the feeling I have is that they are panicking, thundered Antoine Kombouaré at a press conference. They are all panicking. They stress, the presidents. After they have their reasons, it belongs to them, and I respect it. But speaking for all my colleagues, I think it’s really unfair. That’s the word … I find that the presidents are in total panic”, concluded the coach of the Canaries, reassembled. The message got through.
