This does not prevent Franck Haise from staying ambitious.
“We start by dreaming, like all the players and coaches who face PSG. It is important to dream in life. Then we confront reality. We have to be in what we do better. We also know very well that even if we are 100 % of our capacities, when we play PSG, it is not necessarily sufficient. »»
A reworked defense for Nice
Nice will therefore appear with a reworked defense, in which Bard could be placed in the axis alongside Bombito, who returns, and Ndayishimiye. “” It will bring me to make some choices on the starting eleven. We know that we will have to run a lot, without the ball, even more than usual. You will also have to be able to play under pressure, with players capable of projecting themselves, to hold the ball. I take it all into account “Said Franck Haise.
Clauss and Abdi are expected on the sides in piston roles, while Boudaoui and Rosario could be associated in the midfield. Finally, in front, the top scorer of Nice Guessand should be supported by Laborde and Boga.
