Resume Ligue 1 a little later, but do it with the supporters. This is the will of Christian Gourcuff. The coach of FC Nantes spoke in an interview with Ouest-France of the need to end the football season, while considering it preferable not to sink into haste. "If football resumes, I just hope that the matches will not be played behind closed doors, because for me, behind closed doors is an aberration. Unfortunately, we will no doubt be heading for that, because football is above all governed by money, ”said Gourcuff.
"For years, football has lived on credit"
Money and its drifts, the Nantes technician has long returned to it. For him, the coronavirus pandemic and the ensuing crisis highlight the excesses of the football market and more generally of capitalism.
“The coronavirus crisis does not only affect football, but more globally globalization, the generalized search for profit, the capitalist economy which leads us into the wall. Football is part of this headlong rush, with, among other things, a permanent escalation of TV rights. For years he has lived on credit. […] Those who will get by will be those who have a realistic and non-speculative management. Even if it means cutting expenses in the world of football by half. "It won't be a problem. Just because a player will win less money does not mean that he will play less well. "
