From Guingamp to Guingamp, from depression to the dream of recovery. Just five months ago, Saint-Étienne, after a fifth defeat in a row, this time at home against the Bretons, plunged to 8th place in Ligue 2, eight points from second place, synonymous with a direct rise. This Saturday at 7 p.m., the Greens find Guingamp, but this time in the costume of a second. How did ASSE carry out this recovery which now brings more than 35,000 people to each match at Geoffroy-Guichard?
Everything was decided even before the end of the match against Guingamp. Roland Romeyer, the club’s boss, decides to part ways with coach Laurent Battles. Beyond the defeats, he simply can’t stand it anymore. Blaming him in particular for an attitude that was too dull on the sidelines. Or to inhibit one of his favorites, defender Michael Nadé, by raising his arms to the sky as soon as he makes a pass.
