The rest of the blood and gold group is fit for the trip to Auxerre, this Wednesday evening (6:15 p.m.).
Five matches in a fortnight: Guingamp on January 28 (0-1), Metz on January 31 (1-1), Sochaux last Friday (1-2), Auxerre on Wednesday and against Nîmes on Saturday. It is a rich program that is currently offered to Ruthenians. And physically, you have to keep up. Which is more the case for Didier Santini’s men, even if the defensive sector remains in difficulty on the eve of going to challenge the 19th in Ligue 1 – exactly like them, one floor above.
Thus, Serge-Philippe Raux-Yao, the control tower (1.97 m) of the hinge at three, will be “too fair“, suffering from hamstrings, we slip at the club. This Monday, the player trained at… Auxerre did not even take part in the training session at Vabre, he who had been withdrawn at the last minute on Friday at the time to face the Cubs. Session in which his back sidekick Éric Vandenabeele, also unfit on Friday morning, only partially participated. Spared as he was because of adductors causing him some concern. Nevertheless, his participation in the meeting was not called into question with certainty today, a test to be carried out tomorrow, during the final training session.
Santini raises the tone (again)
As a reminder, in Metz, Rodez had lost another usually titular central defender, Loris Mouyokolo, victim of a ruptured Achilles tendon. The Tunisian international Aymen Abdennour, Joris Chougrani or even Kévin Boma who had this start to the week recovered well after suffering from cramps on Friday against FCSM therefore remain suitable as a professional central defender. A match which had also seen Bradley Danger, the defensive midfielder, help out on the left of the defense at three.
In Auxerre, the right piston Marvin Senaya will not be there because suspended for accumulation of yellow cards. Finally, it should be noted that celuni’s training at midday, after a morning video session, was marked by a flowery shouting from coach Santini; annoyed to see his men raise their hands to ask for an offside during an exercise in situation, as he had already said publicly after the setback against Guingamp.
