FC Nantes coach for more than two years after the dismissal of Raymond Domenech, Antoine Kombouaré is having a great epic with the Nantes club. At the end of the 2020-2021 season, he saved Nantes from relegation before winning the Coupe de France last season. And in 2023, he will have the opportunity to do the double since the final of the Coupe de France will be played on Saturday and his team will be opposed to Toulouse FC. And then Kombouaré had recently let loose on his group, he went back on his words.
Following a loss to AJ Auxerre, Nantes was getting dangerously close to the red zone. At the microphone of Prime Videoafter the meeting, Antoine Kombouaré let his anger burst out on April 17: “ The Auxerre players say we have a great team, but no, we have a shitty team. When you are not able to win in 8 games, it means that you are bad. Not that you have a great team. Me, I warn, I discuss, but it does not fit. I hope that at some point there will be a reaction. Every day, we talk to them about the final, we ask them for tickets, so of course… I’m angry, but I have confidence in my group. But here, I am talking to a wall, for the moment. We are not maintained, it does not fit. If we are 17th or 18th, maybe they will move. »
“Obviously, with such rotten performances, you had to name things”
In an interview given to Parisian, Antoine Kombouare returned to this statement: I stay myself, but I’m still cash if I think I have to be. Holding me back to be politically correct would be a pain. That would be lying to myself. Recently, after our defeat at Auxerre, I said that we had a shitty team and that I was a shitty coach. We came out of a series of eight games with three draws and five defeats. Inevitably, with such rotten performances, it was necessary to name things. »
