Ligue 1 will resume its rights this Saturday, November 24 for the En Avant de Guingamp. On the costarmorican bench, Jocelyn Gourvennec will lead his first match since his return to the head of the team, replacing Antoine Kombouaré. During the press briefing before EAG's move to Reims, the Brestois gave himself over the work done since taking office and the changes made.
This Saturday, November 24, the En Avant of
Guingamp moves to Reims for the 15th day of Ligue 1. This will be the first match on the bench of Jocelyn Gourvennec, enthroned at the head of the team on November 12th. For ten days, the one who has already coached the club between 2010 and 2016 has set up his methods.
"We had to do a lot and spend time together at the training center. It worked like an internship, except that the players returned home at night. And this until the beginning of this week of match, in Reims. Until Wednesday, November 21, we have been able to work consistently. We do not revolutionize a team in 15 days. "
However, the tactician Guingampais will have to find solutions to solve the offensive and defensive problems of his team. Currently worse defense of Ligue 1 (28 goals conceded) and second worst attack (9 registered).
"Everything is perfect. IF that was not the case I would not be at Guingamp. There are things to perfect because the team does not arrive on time to perform, it is only on ends of matches. So you have to work on the defensive aspect to feel stronger and defend better to have a better attack game. If you do not defend together, you can not attack together. "
To regain the momentum, Jocelyn Gourvennec should abandon this Saturday against Reims the system with five defenders, set up by his predecessor, preferring more stability in the midfield.
"This system has five defenders with interesting sides, but that's not what I favor, because it takes a player a little higher up the field. These are options, but it's not my favorite. I do not close the door however, you could see it at some point. It happened to me in the past to use it in Guingamp or Bordeaux. "
