It is a very special season that European football clubs are experiencing this year with this World Cup in the middle of winter. Schedules were turned upside down and teams had to play a record number of games before the break. An all the more special start to the season for Paris Saint-Germain, which has just changed coach with the arrival of Christophe Galtier. If the supporters hoped to see Zinedine Zidane arrive, it is therefore another native of Marseille who leads the Parisian club and so far, things seem to be going rather well.
PSG are currently first in the French championship and qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League. Results that allow Christophe Galtier to say he is satisfied with the start of the season for his team, but for Daniel Riolo, the matter is a little more complex than that. The 52-year-old journalist has analyzed the work of the Parisian coach and he is not going with tweezers. “What he’s been doing since the start of the season is both clever and ridiculous”he said on his show After FootballTuesday 15 November in the evening on RMC. While he explains that Jordan’s father managed to manage his three stars, Messi, Mbappé and Neymar well, there are several aspects that nevertheless pose problems. “Ridiculous, because he serves us a hackneyed communication that we have seen with other coaches already”despairs the companion of Géraldine Maillet.
He doesn’t have to add a layer to take us for idiots
After this first frontal attack, Daniel Riolo is more virulent against the 56-year-old coach. “Basically he tells us that he is having a better start to the season than Bayern, than Real, than Manchester City… No, stop taking us for idiots, it’s not the same thing at all (. ..) What you’re talking about is bananas“, launches the journalist. Before sending a last salvo in the direction of Christophe Galtier: “It’s grotesque, because you don’t play in the same leagues. Invincibility does not mean the same thing. So he doesn’t have to add a layer to take us for idiots, because no one is stupid.“
For the time being, Christophe Galtier has not reacted to the words of Daniel Riolo, who has shown once again that he did not have his tongue in his pocket!
