After eleven league days, Stade Lavallois is 17th in Ligue 2. The Tango have won only one of their last eight matches. A situation that worries the Laval captain, Jimmy Roye: “yes, the situation is not normal. So little victory in the last matches, it’s not normal. It’s not our level and it’s not the quality of the group compared to what you live on a daily basis. You shouldn’t see everything black either because there are certain contents that are good. But yes, we must be a little alarmed all the same. This team is too irregular.“
“He’s someone I love very much”
With such results, the atmosphere in the locker room may suffer. “Nope” says captain Tango who also supports coach Olivier Frapolli: “the coach is in place and I hope he will remain there as long as possible. He’s someone I really like personally and I think a lot of players like him. The coach makes his choices, it’s never easy to make choices. We know very well that in football, we see it with Lyon, it is the coach who will jump if the results are not there. That’s the problem with football, you can’t fire 25 players but you can fire a coach. Except that the coach, he does the work during the week with the staff and they do it very, very well. It is us on Saturday in the field who do not answer present.“
Stade Lavallois welcomes Stade Malherbe de Caen this Saturday, October 15 at La Basser.
