OL: Pierre Sage pas déçu de son absence aux trophées UNFP mais...

Une absence remarquée dans les nommés pour les trophées UNFP, dévoilés mardi dernier. Promu au poste d’entraîneur de l’OL fin novembre puis conservé jusqu’à la fin de saison, Pierre Sage ne figure pas dans la liste des cinq noms pour le meilleur technicien de l’année.

Pierre SAGE

“On m’a dit que c’était relatif au fait que je n’étais pas là au début de saison et que je n’avais pas le diplôme”

“Est-ce que je m’attendais à être nommé ? Pas du tout”, a réagi ce samedi Pierre Sage en conférence de presse, interrogé sur son absence dans la catégorie du meilleur entraîneur. “Vous savez, j’ai une relation très particulière avec les statistiques individuelles et les classements individuels. C’est quelque chose qui ne m’interpelle pas du tout au final.”

Après avoir repris l’OL dans la zone rouge, Pierre Sage a redressé la barre pour mener son équipe en finale de Coupe de France et à la lutte pour les places européennes en Ligue 1. “Ça a fait un peu de bruit, on m’a dit que c’était relatif au fait que je n’étais pas là au début de saison et que je n’avais pas le diplôme”, a encore commenté Sage sur le sujet.

“On va élire quelqu’un sans l’avoir su exercer”

Luka Elsner (Le Havre), Luis Enrique (PSG), Paulo Fonseca (Lille), Franck Haise (Lens) et Eric Roy (Brest) se disputeront donc cette récompense individuelle. “Je félicite les coachs retenus”, a sobrement lancé Pierre Sage, lui qui était en début de saison à la tête du centre de formation de l’OL.

Huitième de Ligue 1 avant les trois dernières journées, l’OL s’attend à vivre une fin de saison excitante. “Mais il faudra m’expliquer ce que c’est d’être le meilleur entraîneur”, a tout de même conclu Pierre Sage. “Quand on élit le meilleur entraîneur sans avoir assisté à une de ses séances alors que le métier d’entraîneur dit qu’il faut entraîner, ça me questionne. On va élire quelqu’un sans l’avoir vu exercer.”

Le dernier titre de l’OL remonte à 2012 avec le Trophée des Champions, remporté dans la foulée de la Coupe de France. Mettre fin à la disette de son club serait sans doute bien plus significatif pour Pierre Sage.
