Match2 Jan 2027

No end in sight to Stade Rennais's wait for a win

7 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Stade Rennais has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Tempers go at Stade Rennais

Adrien Thomasson was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Brice Samba 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.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Nobody could get near Arnaud Nordin

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Valentin Rongier shuts the door

Defensive actions: 17, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad4 Jan 2027

A smaller club would suit Adrien Thomasson now

He has had enough of the noise. Whether Stade Rennais can be a quieter place for him, or whether the only cure is a move somewhere the phone-ins are gentler, is a question for the next few months.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Adrien Thomasson stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.57 on the card, and the Stade Rennais support went home talking about one name.

Market4 Jan 2027

LOSC Lille are about to pick up the phone

A conversation is coming this week. Stade Rennais will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Yassir Zabiri named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Yassir Zabiri is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad9 Nov 2026

Glen Kamara damages knee ligaments — 72 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 72 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match7 Nov 2026

No end in sight to Stade Rennais's wait for a win

8 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Stade Rennais has to find a result from somewhere.

Market9 Nov 2026

Ludovic Blas wants more than Stade Rennais are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Stade Rennais

Valentin Rongier was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Brice Samba 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.

Match7 Nov 2026

A bad afternoon for Stade Rennais against Toulouse FC

0‑1 to Toulouse FC, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

From our football correspondent Steady

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

A defender's afternoon for Adrien Thomasson

Defensive actions: 30. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Adrien Thomasson 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 Stade Rennais this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Real improvement from Dee-Shawn Jacinthe at Stade Rennais

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Dee-Shawn Jacinthe is 17, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Words at Stade Rennais training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Brice Samba is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match5 Sep 2026

Stade Rennais see off FC Lorient

Three points for Stade Rennais, 1‑0 the final word against FC Lorient in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Nothing got past Valentin Rongier

19 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

A defender's afternoon for Sebastian Szymański

Defensive actions: 19. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

The afternoon belonged to Ludovic Blas

A mark of 7.76, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Nordan Mukiele dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
