[QUOTE="FrenchFan, post: 836308, member: 70871"] Noves has done his best to keep a settled side since November and he's clearly moved away from the musical chair selection of his predecessors. But there's a lot of injuries to first starters Ben Arous Poirot Fofana Ollivon Trinh Duc + David, Chavancy, Lakafia, Chat so he's lost some of the balance he had. The issues are still lack of leaders and lack of balance in squad due to injuries. If we lose on Sunday. Laporte will start turning the screws on Noves. And if we don't finish in the top half the knives will be out. The politics is never far away. I don't believe Noves will stay if the union put him under pressure due to a lack of results. The press doesn't see the political issues at stake. Remember Laporte didn't chose Noves. And unless Laporte stays at his place until Japan I can see clashes ahead. Laporte can be overbearing. Another defeat will not bring these 2 closer... [/QUOTE]
