Loïc Rémy scored twice on Saturday against Toulouse - Michel Spingler / AP / SIPA

We would have liked to give you his feeling, his reaction, his joy after his good match and his double against Toulouse (3-0) Saturday evening. But Loïc Rémy snubbed the press in the mixed zone where he does his job less well than on the ground, like most of his teammates elsewhere. Fortunately, the 32-year-old slams goals. This season, the Losc striker has already entered thirteen in all competitions, including six in Ligue 1.

Statistics in clear progression since this season after a complicated previous year often spent on the sidelines. But since early January, Rémy has been shining. Aligned in the lead in a 4-4-2 alongside Victor Osimhen, the former French international is one of the explanations for the revival of Losc (3rd) which has won four of its last five Ligue 1 games.

"He has a sense of play, he has a sense of purpose"

"I know him very well. There is an evolution in the game and in the team. He has a sense of play, a sense of goal and it also allows others to give balls with more presence in the penalty area. The long-term absence of Thimothy Weah often prevented me from associating Victor and Loïc at the start of the season. But there, I find that our attacking sector is more effective with the presence of Loïc, “says Christophe Galtier, the coach of Losc.

More efficient with the feet than with his tongue, Loïc Rémy has now become an indisputable incumbent in the Lille workforce. A small revenge for a thirty-something that many had probably buried a little too quickly.
