There is a very high individual level in what the coaches offer. »

Ligue 1 is doing better than La Liga

“You will think that I say this because it looks good, but no, I find that it is a very competitive league, with a lot of talent, young players who then go to other championships. There is a high level among the coaches too. I can speak from experience”added the coach of the Rouge et Bleu, who has not named those he likes among his counterparts.
