"Fighting must help us get out of the doubt spirale"

  • Lilian Rossi

Before the reception of Valence-Romans at the Stade des Alpes, Lilian Rossi deciphers the state of mind of FCG players

Do you have the pressure before the derby?

"We have to win this game so it's going to be important to do everything we have to do, with a lot of application. On the scrum, it's already been the best for Perpignan. We're going to put even more importance on this sector. On the sidelines, the same. On the mauls. So it's going to be a big fight.  That's what we're going to do, that's what we said. That's what Clement Ancely told us. We're going to have to put a lot of involvement and a lot of aggressiveness into this game. "

How to get out of the spiral of doubt?

"We told ourselves that, in any case, it is the fight that will allow us to get out of this spiral. To put ideas in place, we must move forward, we must keep the balloons. We have to set up the system, which will be important. Because that's what we're going to be able to put our heads back in the right place. Our system is not yet fully in place. There's a little bit of trouble on some phases of the game. But afterwards, it will be put in place quickly if we get our head out of the water, if we get into some nice aggressive phases. It's going to recover properly and that's a certainty. "

Thirteenth in Pro D2, that's not the place for the FCG.

"No, it's not our place, that's for sure. We have to win, that's going to be the most important thing. We're not necessarily going to think about the ranking. We're going to think about the games, game by game. We will have to make a good block. There is already a defeat against Perpignan. We're going to have to win absolutely tomorrow. Then after, we will see the next two games of the block how it goes. And, at the end of this boulder, what is our place in the ranking. We prefer to watch the games one after the other. And really think about that game. Think about what we have to do. And to be all focused on this game against Valencia. "
