Courbis, expressing his concerns about Montpellier’s current position in the league, states, “I have a diagnosis, but I can’t change the timeline. I would be 38 days from the end; I would still be a little more reassured. Today, I don’t know when the decline will stop. I think I know how to go about getting there. But that doesn’t mean I’m sure.”
Dismissing the notion of relying on psychological shock, Courbis emphasizes that being an entertainer is not the key to winning matches. He believes in clear leadership and direction. He acknowledges the challenges Montpellier faces, being in the 17th position with 10 away matches to play.
Courbis sees upcoming matches as crucial, stating, “We are going to have matches with six points… Contrary to what many people think, there are not only four teams which are affected by the descent. There are six or seven of them.”
Expressing his competitive spirit, Courbis adds a warning to Monaco: “I hope Monaco has an anti-Montpellier plan planned; otherwise, they will lose.” Montpellier currently sits in 17th place, three points ahead of the first relegation, while Monaco is in second place, three points behind PSG.
