Philippe Clement, who was appointed coach of FC Monaco on Monday, will begin his adventure on the bench of the club Prince, on Sunday in the garden of FC Nantes with a presentation of the 20th day of the French League (5 pm). Realizing the need to adapt to his workforce, the former Brugge boss nonetheless reiterated his ambition to beat the team coached by Antoine Compoire – who still has 3 successes in a row at L1. “I have a lot of respect for Niko Kovac’s work, even if each coach has his own ideas. Personally, I want to play in a dominant way, with an attacking game. I am here for a project, to win matches but also to develop the team and the young players.” In four days, no coach can make big changes, otherwise it will be very difficult for the players. You have to go step by step.”Clement retreated.

“We can do great things in the next few months”
Inspired by Pep Guardiola, “I have followed and analyzed many of his matches in Manchester City, Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona,” Clement indicated his fundamental desire for his team to take a leading role during the meetings. “I want to play dominance and attack. We’ve made small changes but the foundations are good. We can do a lot of things in the next few months, but we have to improve the offensive game. It is clear to me, commented the 47-year-old, who still holds 3 consecutive championship titles in Belgium (2019, 2020, 2021).
