Blues coach Fabien Galthié is aiming for the top 3 in the world within two years

Fabien Galthié, spoke Sunday October 31 from the National Rugby Center in Marcoussis, where the XV of France is currently training, six days before the first meeting of the tour autumn versus Argentina.

For the former scrum-half, who is halfway through his term as manager, it is also an opportunity to draw an ambitious roadmap and draw the first conclusions.

TO two years of the World Cup in France, the coach of the Blues sees things in a big way with the objective of appearing in the world top 3 within two years. It is already showing a promising track record. Since taking office, the Habs have won 54% in 17 games played.

But Fabien Galthié wants to do more. In his viewfinder: the last quarter of an hour, which tends to be lacking in the Blues. With five out of six losses lost at the last minute, it is urgent to deal with finishers: “The experience, the collective experience, have changed. Of the six defeats, five are played on the last actions. It is a line of work. We have to build a team capable of managing this end of the match, to have finishers” .

For this, he will be able to rely on his new captain, Antoine Dupont, a choice “natural” in the absence of Charles Ollivon, seriously injured in the knee.
