The days seem numbered for Claude Puel. After the heavy defeat of Saint-Etienne on the lawn of Strasbourg last weekend, supporters demanded the departure on the field of the coach of the first team with a rather threatening banner. "Puel, we leave you 24 hours to resign ..." The management hesitates for its part to separate from the technician, even if the divorce seems close because the club is simply dead last in Ligue 1.

Puel reacted to him in a press conference and does not intend to be impressed. “I'm not used to putting myself forward. I want to give my all with my staff for the team. There is an environment with a lot of fake news about me, but I don't care. (...) I'm not going to spread out. My action, I have been leading it for two years. And I am on a mission. (...) I think the supporters will be behind their team, and this is the most important. We are at home and put pressure on our opponent, and not create a harmful atmosphere for our team. ” The atmosphere may be heavy in Geoffroy-Guichard for the reception in Angers this Friday.
