Zapping But! Football Club AS Saint-Etienne: Why should Green be installed over time?
After having carried out all the preparation in 3-4-3 before returning to a four-man defense from the second day of the championship, following the initial setback in Dijon (1-2), ASSE should once once more change its system of game on Saturday in Valenciennes. This is what emerges from the press conference of Laurent Batlles. “It is possible that I will change, confided the former Trojan. We have to impose something. We will still work tactically during the last sessions. »
Towards a five-man defense
Batlles having slipped that one of Valenciennes’ strengths was his play on the sides, it is unlikely that he will return to his 3-4-3, especially since Mathieu Cafaro will be suspended. The tendency is rather for him to switch to a five-man defense, with Sergi Palencia and probably Yvann Maçon in the corridors since Gabriel Silva, spared, is uncertain. Young Benjamin Bouchouari should start in the middle with Victor Lobry and probably Dylan Chambost, who has received the green light from the medical staff to return to competition. Lenny Pintor might support Jean-Philippe Krasso in attack … except that the former Lyonnais did not train with the group this Thursday.
