The time will be celebrating in the coming weeks at FC Nantes. Because if the troops of Antoine Kombouaré are reduced, this year again, to fight for the maintenance, there will be a lot of question of the thirty years of the title of champion of France won by the Canaries in the spring 95. A corporation remained in all memories, as much for the record of invincibility of 32 matches-that PSG hopes to beat-that for the beautiful game practiced Suaudeau.
Thirty years later, Japiet N'Doram, the former Canaries' playmaker, recently said to be ” Especially proud of the content that has attracted all French football. Records are made to be broken. But people talk more about our game than the record. »» An opinion shared by his friend of the Nicolas Ouédec attack. “” It is a title which, by its form, its dynamism, its quality, its youth marked Nantes supporters and football enthusiasts in general. I think it is at the top of the titles of champion of France of the last 30 or 40 years ”said the old center center in the columns of Ouest-France.
And for the former tricolor international, the merit essentially amounts to their coach Jean-Claude Suaudeau.
“Having Raynald Denoueix at the training center and finishing with Coco Suaudeau en Pro, we have two of the best educators on a national scale. These are people who print in your head that if we follow training, training, our luggage will be full for the rest of our career and our life. It's not just football, ” he said.
“There have also been yawns with Jean-Claude Suaudeau”
“I remember training where he put a diagram in place, a first exercise and all of a sudden, Bim!” He changed everything. Sometimes he said to you: “It's good, come back to the locker room, I saw what I had to see”, it lasted 20 minutes. Conversely, training could also last 2 and a half hours because we didn't understand anything he wanted, he said again, adding: “Coco never said to me:” Nico, you are prohibited from dribbler. »» He knew I was not going to do it but I knew I had the right to do it. He didn't prohibit anything. He could not prevent Reynald Pedros, Claude Makelele or Japiet N’Doram from dribble two or three players because Coco knew they were able to do so. »»
However, the relationship between Breton and Nantes coach has not always been easy. “Coco was an attacking player, it was a n ° 10. He loved dribble, he needed fantasy. The too school players barbed him. He needed to be challenged by his players. There have also been shouting. How many times have I left training by swinging my chasuble, how many times have I gone to his office where we yell down …,, he explained. But now when we see each other, we kiss! That means everything. »»
