Girondins de Bordeaux coach David Guion will be the guest of 100% Girondins this Tuesday. A David Guion who found his place at the club, eight months after his arrival on the banks of the Garonne. He finally seems comfortable in the costume. It must be said that he abandoned that of firefighter on duty which did not really succeed last season.
He had not been able to straighten the bar of a completely adrift boat with only 2 wins in 14 games. We didn’t give much of our skin in the off-season with relegation to Ligue 2, but David Guion was able to convince his leaders to keep him and not start from scratch again with another coach. He notably handed over his trainer’s costume to this young team. He also knows this Ligue 2 by heart. A championship that he already tamed a few years ago to allow the Stade de Reims to return to the elite of French football.
Today, his team is much more like him than last season. David Guion is above all a coach renowned for his rigour, the solidity of his teams and it is therefore no coincidence that the Girondins have the best defense in Ligue 2 since the resumption. As throughout his career, he was not afraid to throw young players into the deep end and above all he prepared them perfectly. His calm and serenity on the bench also reflects on his team. For example, it has hardly ever lost its footing during a meeting this season, unlike some of its opponents. If many have the impression of discovering a new David Guion this season at the Girondins, we have especially found the coach he was at Stade Reims and the results that go with it for the moment.
