Strasbourg’s Liam Rosenior Details Battle Plan to Tame Nantes’ Attack
-As Strasbourg prepares to face Nantes in a crucial Ligue 1 match at Stade de la Meinau this Sunday, manager Liam Rosenior is focusing on containing the threats posed by the opposition, with Super Eagles winger Moses Simon being the standout player to watch.
Rosenior recognizes Simon’s exceptional skillset, which has resulted in two goals and three assists this season, making him a vital component of Nantes’ attacking strategy. The manager believes it is crucial to closely mark Simon to minimize their attacking prowess.
Rosenior admires Simon’s abilities and stated, “Nantes possess talented players, including Moses Simon, whom I’m familiar with. He’s a significant part of their attacking narrative.” His team will need to devise tactics to counter Simon’s impact effectively.
Rosenior is acutely aware of the opposition’s buildup play, often facilitated by players like Chirivela, whom he describes as highly skilled. He plans to employ strategies to disrupt their build-up from deep positions, focusing on their weaknesses while exploiting their strengths.
Rosenior concludes, “We need to focus on our team’s strengths while limiting theirs. It’s an exciting match ahead, with both sides eager for victory on Sunday.” The league match is scheduled to kick off at 5 p.m., with Nantes sitting 10th and Strasbourg 11th in the league table, each with 8 and 10 points, respectively, from their opening 10 and 8 games.
