Not really flawless yet last night against Strasbourg (3-3), Lucas Chevalier is starting to raise some questions outside. On RMCit was the 1998 world champion, Lionel Charbonnier, who pointed out the Frenchman's performance. “He’s not doing enough”he first observed, before continuing.

He didn't do the job. On the first goal, I thought at first it was a complicated header and after analyzing it, it's going backwards. He must not go backwards, he must move forward. He is on a rear support, so he dives backwards and it is prohibitive. On the second goal, he tries to straighten his leg, his crampons get caught in the carpet. For me, for the moment, the outfit is too big for Chevalier. (…) You put it with his performances that he did in Lille, he does not concede the two goals. He's very small. When you look at it, you have the impression that the goal is immense. (…) He doesn’t have the charisma at the moment. But it will gain momentum, we have to give it time.»
