One of the captains of Stade Rennais expressed his disagreement on Sunday evening with the comments made by the team coach.
Annoyed by the erratic results of his training, Bruno Genésio raised his voice this week. The experienced technician made it known that he was “not in Rennes to play the 10e place “. Strong words that would not go down very well internally.
Bourigeaud contradicts Genesio
Sunday evening, and after yet another misstep in the championship conceded against Lyon (0-1), Benjamin Bourigeaud indicated that the players were also tired. And that their coach did not need to call them to order. “We are not at Stade Rennes to play the 10th either.e place, he thundered on Canal+ Foot. We are competitors too. There are objectives that are set at the start of the season. I’ve been in Rennes for 7 years, and I’ve had the chance to qualify for Europe at the end of each season for 6 years.”
Rennes occupies a rank unworthy of its status, but Bourigeaud also insists on the need to not see oneself too handsome and to find a certain humility. “Today, we must above all take the steps one after the other, and start from our basics. And don’t pollute your head with having to finish in the top 3 straight away. There is a lot of work to do.”
Finally, the Rennes striker recalled everyone’s duty to take refuge in work rather than lamenting in public. “We too are tired of these kinds of matches. We make efforts and sacrifices, but we are missing something to be able to obtain results. I have nothing else to say. We can only keep our mouths shut today and continue working.”
