A very lively debate took place this week on the After Foot show on RMC.
An unmissable event in the French audiovisual landscape, After Foot is a program renowned for its strong opinions and fierce debates. RMC’s flagship program did not deviate from its usual ways this Monday, when Daniel Riolo and Florent Gautreau stuck to the theme of the Paris Saint-Germain season.
Very critical of Luis Enrique, that he “ does not appreciate humanly“, Daniel Riolo was reframed by his colleague. “ The different changes he makes, Géo-trouvetou as you say, are they useless? said Florent Gautreau. He demonstrated to you in the return match against Barça, and even at half-time of the first match and in this match against Lyon, that precisely this turnover, this habit he has of making players play with several places and to bring them in and involve them in the rotation, it was going to be effective and it was. You saw it, and you were wrong, because you said it was no good, and it was good for something“.
“Do you come here every day?” »: the tone rises between Gautreau and Riolo
A remark that made Daniel Riolo come off his hinges. “ Excuse me, did you become a police commissioner?“, then launched the journalist. “ Do you come here every day? You come once a week and you act as police commissioner! Don’t play cop with me“, continued Riolo.
The latter also maintained his position regarding the young Bradley Barcola, whom he does not consider as a reference. “ Barcola is not a crack in my eyes! I think so, basta. For me the cracks, top right, top left over the last few years, I made a small list: Foden is in, Mbappé is one, Mahrez was one, Sadio Mane was one, Salah, Rashford, Bernardo Silva when he played in this position was one, Vinicius was in it, Yamal is one currently. In my eyes, this is very much what he (Barcola ; Editor’s note) is doing, yesterday it’s good (facing theOL ; Editor’s note), now he needs a favorable context, and I repeat, in my eyes, he is not a crack » .
