Player ratings18 Oct 2027

Thomas Guyot runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 36. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match16 Oct 2027

10 matches without a win for Tours

The run now stands at 10, and the questions being asked around Tours are no longer polite ones.

Market18 Oct 2027

Hervé Vasseur hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Tours can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings18 Oct 2027

Philippe Nguyen, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.62

A mark of 7.62 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad18 Oct 2027

Théodore Lefèvre in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tours this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match16 Oct 2027

No clean sheets in sight for Tours

4 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Match16 Oct 2027

Tours share the spoils with Sochaux

A 2‑2 draw with Sochaux leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Squad18 Oct 2027

The manager makes an example of Karl Madianga

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad18 Oct 2027

Lenny Lankoso falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match2 Oct 2027

The wait goes on for Tours

8 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Player ratings4 Oct 2027

Both of them Philippe Nguyen's — 8.60

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.60, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Thomas Marty hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Tours can pretend not to have heard.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Mathieu Ménard keeps Tours in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings4 Oct 2027

Marc Louis, 34, rolls back the years — 8.20

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.20 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Remember the name: Philippe Nguyen

He is 18, he is averaging 7.01, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Market4 Oct 2027

Elfayed Maanrifa is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Tours is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Théodore Lefèvre in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tours this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match2 Oct 2027

A bad afternoon for Tours against AC Ajaccio

3‑5 to AC Ajaccio, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

In brief
