Starting in an advanced position behind the striker, Seko Fofana delivered a mixed match. The Ivory Coast international was much more comfortable after returning from the locker room in a more natural position in a number 6 role.
After the meeting, he did not hesitate to point it out by sending a strong message to his trainer Jorge Sampaoli. “ The coach has tactics, ideas, things that must be respected. I take my responsibilities too, but it's true that when I moved to 6, things were better, I felt freer. I was able to bring the balls up, I had the game in front of me, I was able to find passes, that led us to have a lot of situations and I have more references as a 6. That allows me to arrive launched, and for the teams to control me less,” he said in the mixed zone in comments reported by the newspaper the Team.
Before continuing and talking about his physical condition: “ Before arriving, I was on vacation, I had two training sessions before Nice (2-3, January 3)I was not physically on the street. In this positioning, it makes things easier for me and I feel very good. We will find solutions so that the team regains confidence, because I have confidence, I fight every day, I like this type of event because I am convinced that we will turn things around. It's never easy when we feel like we have things against us. That being said, we had concrete situations to score, we didn't have success but we have to know how to keep things positive. I'm not at all worried about what I experienced this evening. »
