Stade Rennais F.C.

of

you know playing Rennes playing Lyon playing Marseille playing Monaco right and so the fact that they're still top of the pile after playing the big hitters of Ligue 1 maybe is a little bit worrying if we want to see a kind of Ligue 1 title race this season and What about you, Jomi? What do you make of PSG's start of the season so far?

I think last year I thought it was quite interesting that coming off the back of the Club World Cup, obviously they'd won the Champions League.

I think that probably takes its toll sort of mentally and physically on a lot of the players.

And what we're seeing is two points a game.

And that's Champions League spot form, basically.

And the thing with Rennes has always been There's the right structure in place.

The academy is there.

But...

If we can get the win there, we complete a perfect October, a nine-game win streak, and then that momentum carries us to next week against Rennes.

Europa League, a tough team.

It'll be the toughest test that we've had so far.

He's super grounded.

And last week or the week before, I interviewed the current Stade Rennes under-19 coach who coached Jacquet for 18 months playing for the B team before he was sent out on loan to Clermont.

where he kind of really started getting some first-team experiences, first of all in Ligue 1 and then in Ligue 2.

I feel

like Dave needs to read that whole sentence out there with none of the French pronunciation.

Clermont, Stade Rennes.

And the coach, his name's William Stagner, and he said that after...

Jacquet made his debut for France in the international break he called him up and says oh you know just wanted to say congratulations Jeremy very impressive you know all very good and Jacquet kind of just replied to him said oh no I missed two passes I'm not happy with myself so like there's the sense that I don't think he's letting it go to his head I think he's really grounded coming through that system at Rennes where they've brought through so many of like the top players in the game at the moment have either come directly through that system, Kamavinga, you've got Desiree Due, you've got Ousmane Dembele, Doku spent time there, Rafinha spent time there, you've got Truffaut, who's excelling at Bournemouth.

Juventus, of course, losing to Genoa over the weekend, 2-0.

They did beat Lecce 2-0, but had a 2-2 before that in the Europa League with Rennes, conceded 3-0 to Lazio in their Serie A match before that, and played a 2-1 with Celta de Vigo two weeks back in the Europa League.

So seeing goals and Juve are conceding them, I think Napoli...

At plus 210 to score twice is worth one of my units.

It was like 40 million euro transfers.

An expensive one from Rennes.

And it looks like it paid off, bro.

It looks like it paid off.

Damn, that's crazy.

Yeah, man.

Esteban Le Paul, seven goals in nine games for Rennes, 26-year-old Frenchman.

There you go.
