While going through a difficult patch, Randal Kolo Muani saw Djibril Cissé step up to support him.
Randal Kolo Muani had a complicated start to the season. The former Nantes player, who pushed hard to sign at the last minute in Paris, has lost his splendor and has been putting on a series of poor performances for several weeks. A situation that Dibril Cissé understands perfectly.
“ It’s the game. Of course when you are the striker of a big European club and you arrive in the selection the expectations are no longer the same as when you wear the colors of Auxerre or Frankfurt. I experienced it after my transfer to Liverpool (in 2004). You wear a different costume, so people are less tolerant, you have less right to mess up,” he explained in the columns of L’Equipe.
The former Auxerre player also revealed that he had discussed the subject with him via social networks. “I like this player, his mentality. I wanted to tell him that he had to overcome these moments.” he said, adding that he was convinced that his missed opportunity against Emiliano Martinez still weighed on his mind: “I see a guy who is trying, who is not hiding, but who is still affected by this opportunity. It’s something that stands out. As long as he has not exorcised that, for example by scoring in a very big match, this moment will handicap him mentally. So, yes, he may be forcing things a little. »
