Jean-Louis Gasset: "Work hard and give everything"

Two days before the reception of Amiens (Sunday at 3pm), the Stéphanois coach says that he’s wary of the Picards and insists on the state of mind that his team must show in order to hope to impose themselves.

Reunion with the Chauldron

“The match against Amiens is very important. First of all because it’s taking place in our stadium and because we know that if we manage to surpass ourselves, we’ll be pushed forward by our fans. I remember the match that we played against Lille, it was fantastic. You become a professional player to experience atmospheres like that, which gives you the drive to push your limits.”


Amiens, a solid adversary

“Last season, Amiens was already relying on a very good defense. This summer, the club made atypical but high-quality recruitments while keeping Konaté on board, the team’s ringer, despite their greed. We’ll have to really pay attention to him, even if he’s not the only one that can score. Amiens is a team that’s to be taken very seriously. The proof is that they crushed Reims (4-1), a team that imposed itself against Lyon this past week. They’ll be a difficult team to outmanoeuvre but we’ll have to do the maximum in order to offset the two games we tied as an away team.”


Associate Drive with Talent

“Every match is difficult. Reims beat Lyon and Nîmes beat Marseille. These results show that it’s above all a story of state of mind. We have a talented team, but talent is not enough, you have to add the desire and the drive to push your limits. We have to gwork hard and give everything. Our team is great on paper but our players have to be hungry to win and that’s my job to instil that in the players because with an equal measure of motivation, we’ll win.”


The End of the Mercato

“The managers are doing the maximum in order to finalize the arrival of a player on this last day of the Mercato but in these cases there are always three parties who must be heard. If there is no agreement, we’re not certain of anything. What is certain is that Robert Beric is staying with us, he has claimed a place with the group that will face Amiens. I know what brought Robert to AS Saint-Etienne. I’m the one that made him come back in January. The bet was to score ten goals, he scored seven that had a huge impact. Having a striker capable of scoring a dozen goals throughout half a championship, that’s not trivial.


The Integration of the Youths

“Arnaud Nordin is one of the players that I count on. He impressed me during the team’s preparation and the friendly matches. He’s a young player who works and who will continue to progress. He’s stepped onto the field twice since the beginning of the season. William Saliba, Mahdi Camara and Makhtar Gueye have also made their mark. I will integrate other deserving players as soon as we have the possibility to do so because the National 2 youths, who I will go to see tomorrow, progress incredibly quickly when working with the professionals.
