The coach of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Bruno Irlesspoke on Forever about the two-week break that awaits his team.
“We are happy to have this break of course, which will perhaps give certain opponents the opportunity to pass us, but we will be very good hunters behind. We’re going to prepare for that. There, the players will cut three or four days, except Royce (Openda) who cuts a little more (one week). And then, we will focus on the reception at Châteaubriant.”
This month of February will be important with two out of three home matches, against teams said to be within the reach of the Club au Scapulaire… Châteaubriant, Saumur, Saint-Malo. But that doesn’t mean anything because against the red lantern, Granville, Bordeaux won in the last moments, with a score of 2-3.
“Yes, normally eh… Granville also normally, they haven’t won since August 30… But there you go… There is no easy match for us”.
In any case, for this 16th day, there were favorable results for once, with the defeat of Angoulême at home against Montlouis, and Herbiers against Saumur.
“Yes, but you saw it this evening, we weren’t far away… It’s the first return match, we’re very far away, and these teams… La Roche, against whom we won at home, could be ahead of us if they win their match late… There’s Les Herbiers, Angoulême, Bayonne, Saint-Malo… You really have enthusiasm… We don’t know where we’re going in this group. For the followers, it’s even more pleasant than having a team in front. It will play out… There will be meetings which will be very interesting to follow in the coming days […] What if I plan on the La Roche match on March 21? I always plan for a month yes, no more no. We will have other more important matches, and we will see where we are. Over the month, I already know which player is going to join my squad, how we can integrate him or them.”
