After carrying OL at the start of the season, Lucas Paqueta alternated between the good and the bad. The Brazilian, who is courted by Newcastle, has been the target of much criticism. His trainer Peter Bosz was invited to speak on his case this Thursday at a press conference.
“We did a lot of sprints. We did 116 km, it’s huge. The players want, they all try. It’s not easy because Brest was two days after Bordeaux, who were two days after West Ham. Lucas the same, he runs a lot, sometimes too much. He takes the ball from behind, he wants to make the decisive pass, he does the pressing. He may be too much and in front of goal he may not be fresh enough. The Auriverde international must therefore calm down so that OL can make the most of it.
