Always threatened for his future, Claude Puel receives a strong message for his future from Jean-François Soucasse, executive president of ASSE.

Although ASSE snatched his first victory of the season against Clermont (3-2) this weekend, the situation remains precarious since the Greens are still 19th in Ligue 1 . Consequently, Claude Puel is still in the hot seat as for several weeks. Saint-Etienne supporters are demanding his departure, which seems very complicated given the club's finances. Executive President of ASSE , Jean-François Soucasse discusses this issue and clearly puts pressure on Claude Puel .

“Sports results are the only justice of the peace”

“Some supporters want the departure of Claude Puel? I tell them that as in any sports club, the criteria and the evaluation grid are based on results. Only sporting results will keep the club in Ligue 1. I am not in a situation of denial, I am not a follower of the Coué method. We cannot congratulate ourselves on having the best audience in France – that's a reality – and be surprised that this audience is expressing itself and expressing its dissatisfaction. I take my part in its responsibilities, I am there to assume them. Others will have to. Sports results are the only justice of the peace. I am not Claude Puel's lawyer. The situation of Claude Puel must not exonerate the players, the management, ”he confides at the microphone of France Bleu.
