Awaiting the next exceedingly perilous away game against a Lyon giant that consistently plays at the top of the table, Frรฉdรฉric Antonetti’s men gathered for a training session full of joy and the satisfaction of a job well done.
9 points on the scoreboard after 4 games, 5 goals scored for 2 conceded, the red and black house can indeed be satisfied with this thunderous start to the season from a team that even the most passionate fans doubted after some key players’ departures had raised concerns of a noticeable decline in the level of play. Even if Lloris, Konรฉ, or Balmont have not been completely forgotten, Loรฏc Remy quickly found his place in the playing scheme of the Corsican coach as well as in the hearts of Nice supporters.
A moment to fully savor then for the teammates of Lionel Letizi, who proves to be an excellent last barrier behind a defense that has only been surprised twice in the last four games. True, we are still awaiting Bamogo’s major breakout, and perhaps his goal against Valenciennes will give him the confidence needed to effectively support the new menace of the Gym, a certain Rรฉmy who just earned his selection in the hopes thanks to a goal.
In the news, Joseph-Dรฉsirรฉ Job has just been transferred to the Qatari club AL KHARAITIYAT SPORT CLUB. The striker, who arrived in Nice in August 2007, was no longer part of Frรฉdรฉric Antonetti’s plans. On the medical front, Mahamane Traorรฉ is recovering from a muscle injury in his right thigh while Jรฉrรฉmie Moreau is treating his abdominal wall injury.
So the news is all good at the headquarters in the plain of the Var. And as they say, let’s hope it lasts!!!
