Christophe Dugarry has raised the tone. After the frustrating draw of Rennes against Lens (0-0), while the Bretons evolved against ten during almost the whole game, the 98 world champion did not spare Habib Beye. On RMC, the former striker delivered an uncompromising analysis of the Rennes coach who is dividing more and more.
Dugarry merciless for Habib Beye
“I am a pro-habib beye, I like his character and his way of seeing the game”starts Dugarry before letting go of his truths.
“But there is the reality on the ground and in L1, it must go faster. I expect a lot of him. He has an important ego, he insisted to be in the main bath, so the pressure on him is increased tenfold, because he is a character who puts himself a lot forward. »»
This phrase hits the bull's eye. Dugarry directly points to the media attitude of Beye, a former CANAL+ CONSERVIT CONSERVIT COVER, who never hesitates to expose themselves publicly. The world champion continues with a heavy sentence : “I hope I am not mistaken, but for the moment, I must admit that it is insufficient at all points. »»
Decisions that divide
These criticisms intervene in a tense context. Beye had recently forbidden his players to express himself after draw against Lens, causing controversy with the UJSF and the media. This authoritarian management, coupled with sawtooth results (8th position after six days), questions its ability to manage a Ligue 1 club.
Appointed in January 2025, Beye nevertheless posted a correct assessment with 1.63 points per match on 19 games. But its vertical communication methods and its lack of experience at the highest level feed doubts. Dugarry's words summarize a shared feeling: the former player has potential, but the transition to high -level coach is more complicated than expected.
