OM-Rennes (4-2): Coach's reaction

You're a happy man...

I'm very tired. It's been a tough season. At press conferences, you provoke me, I respond in kind. I don't feel the pressure of the press conferences. I'm in this game. Yesterday, I was calm and relaxed. For next season, I'll talk to the club, see what worked and what didn't. I came here without Champions League football. I have a contract, but that means nothing to me. We'll talk about where we want to go and see where we stand.

Luis Henrique announced as starter then substitute

As for his departure, you'll have to ask the president or sporting director. Harit deserved it for one reason and Maupay for another.

His future

You always ask trick questions... I'll tell you something I told the players. When I was 14, I was at the AC Milan training centre and a coach told me to follow OM because of Chris Waddle. The desire to stay is there, 100%. It's been a difficult season. I have to discuss the season objectively, without causing controversy. I'm grateful to the club's management for bringing me here. I don't want to leave. We have to look at where we started and where we want to go. I'm speaking frankly. I'm not talking to any other clubs. We're second in the league, we've qualified for the Champions League, and we have to see what we want to do.

The transfer window

It's part of the discussion, it's not a question of players I want or money to invest. We need to talk. We pushed to get into the Champions League. We need to analyse the situation, the mistakes made, what we can change. I have values that I don't want to compromise on. We need to see how to manage the three competitions.

The presence of Frank McCourt

We're very happy to have seen him here. He spoke with the team, as he always does when he comes. It's good that he talks to the players. It's positive that he's happy, that the owner who's investing money is satisfied.

His greatest satisfaction

The best thing about this team is its pride. We've always been able to get back up after falling hard. Pride is what this team is all about. The credit goes to the players. Pressure makes us react, and that's good for the team.

How are you ending the season?

I'm tired. I know that in five days, I'll miss football. Football is stressful, but in five days, I'll miss it.
