In great difficulty in the final sprint, AS Monaco took pressure from their supporters. The Monegasque Ultras denounce excessive alcohol consumption among some players. As a result, coach Philippe Clement sanctioned Ismail Jakobs.
Yes, AS Monaco supporters know how to speak out. Monegasque fans are not necessarily the loudest at the Stade Louis-II. But they have nothing to envy to their press level counterparts. The proof this week with the scathing text which is mainly addressed to the men of Philippe Clement. ” We denounce the unacceptable attitude and the abusive lack of professionalism of a large part of the players of our first team “, denounced the Ultras Monaco 1994, before dropping a small bomb.

“ (…) How can the players afford, every week, to drink excessively in the bars of the Principality until 5 a.m. when they have training at 10:30 a.m.? (…) Some complain that they don’t have enough playing time when we know they spend more time at the bar than we do “, we learned in this text entitled “Mouse the shirt or break yourselves! “. One could obviously doubt these accusations. At least until the decision taken by Philippe Clement.
Jakobs sidelined
Before the reception of Toulouse on Saturday, during the last day of Ligue 1, the coach of AS Monaco decided to put Ismail Jakobs aside. The winger or left side took advantage of the festivities on the sidelines of the Monaco Grand Prix in Formula 1 last weekend a little too much. ” “Iso” had a sanction for something that will remain internal. It was clearly not good. He understood it. He will therefore not be in the group. Then the case will be settled. (…) When there are things that are not professional, we know it, we have always sanctioned “commented the Belgian coach, far from preparing the match in the best conditions as his team fights for a European place.
