The Girondins remain 20th in Ligue 1 after their draw against ASM (1-1) during the 25th day of Ligue 1.
Arrived last Tuesday to save the Navy and White from relegation, David Guion has already put his paw on his new team.
He has set three priority areas for progress: showing more personality, having better physical condition and increasing the technical level.
A beautiful construction site.
So yes this morning on waking Rémi Oudin will still see "everywhere" that the Girondins are dead last in Ligue 1. But the Bordeaux midfielder may have at least found some hope when swallowing his cereal.
This same hope that he surely no longer had after the spanking received two weeks ago near Reims.
Yes, his team could not do better than a draw this Sunday against AS Monaco (1-1) despite an hour of numerical superiority, but ultimately isn't that the point of hope for the striker? of the day and his teammates?
In any case, Rémi Oudin will not spit on it in this race for maintenance.
Of course the Girondins could have done even better for David Guion's first on the Bordeaux bench but in the current slump do "sixty good minutes", as underlined by the one who scored a magnificent volley, against a candidate for the League of champions is already a first step forward.
If the Marine et Blanc patient still has a lot of "symptoms", the newcomer has already put on his doctor's coat, or rather that of an emergency surgeon, to find some remedies for a team that has been in very bad shape for several weeks.
He has already put his paw on the defensive plan
Already, it has taken only one goal after conceding seventeen in the last four games.
A sort of feat for the worst defense in the five major European championships, even if we are still waiting for the first clean sheet after the 25th day of Ligue 1. But hey, you have to know how to be satisfied with little: "I think we have a good first half with defensive coordination and good blocking.
We were there in terms of state of mind and organization.
There is already better, ”explains the former Stade de Reims coach.
In a few days, he tried to put in place "simple things with very clear principles" on the defensive level.
In practice,
0/25 - Bordeaux are the 3rd team not to achieve a clean sheet in their first 25 matches of a Ligue 1 season after Toulon and Stade Français in 1959/60 and the 1st being unpromoted.
Gruyere.

For Rémi Oudin, “taking this single unlucky goal shows that the team has worked well this week and that it paid off today.
He also saw "good things in the game, in recovery":
“We had a weak point, it was the second balls, there we almost all won them.
I think we regained our confidence with this draw.
This bodes well for the future!
»
This optimistic speech obviously requires confirmation during the next two games against two direct competitors in the race to maintain, Clermont and Troyes.
And there we will have to play full matches from the first to the last minute.
Head, legs, feet...
For this, David Guion has targeted three areas of progress.
The first is to continue to heal the heads.
“We have gone too far back, he regretted.
We can see that we are lacking in confidence.
We are not immune.
You have to show a lot more personality on the pitch.
To help him in his mission, he notably appointed Josuha Guilavogui as captain.
An example for others to follow.
The second is the one that has been the most controversial for several months at the Girondins, it concerns the physical condition of this team.
Facing ASM, she still experienced a terrible "air pocket" according to the new Bordeaux coach.
Suddenly from the 55th minute of play, there was no more intensity, no more aggressiveness on the ball carrier with players sometimes carbo 'over the minutes like Rémi Oudin or Junior Onana.
A finding that challenges since it is not the first time.
Unlike his predecessor Vladimir Petkovic, David Guion admitted, “we will have to work physically because it is very disparate” according to the players.
A little worrying when you know that it's February and the final sprint is approaching.
The third axis is linked to the previous one, it is about the technical quality of this team.
For David Guion, it is imperative that the Girondins "be able to keep the ball better" especially when they are leading.
Here too, he relies heavily on his leaders to get there.
In the second half against Monaco, no one was able to put their foot on the ball, to get a free kick to bring the block up.
In this area, the opposing waves very quickly become incessant.
But hey, at least today the observation is very clear and there finally seems to be a captain at the helm of the Bordeaux ship with David Guion.
It's a first step.
Now it's up to Rémi Oudin and his little friends to "disregard the rankings, play like today and inevitably, we'll go up".
