As we know, Paris FC suffers from a big lack of notoriety and popularity.
It is not by offering such performances that he will attract audiences to Charléty beyond his core of followers.
The great victory last Saturday in Saint-Étienne (0-2) seemed to revive a semblance of a flashback.
It did not take long to die out against Laval (0-0).
The offensives were rare (2 shots in the 1st period, 6 in the 2nd period, only one on target).
It was almost necessary to reach additional time to start shivering and to see Alexis Sauvage, the Laval goalkeeper, make his first and only save of the match…
How to be so harmless when you start the match with Chahiri, Gory, Caddy and a five-star bench (Guilavogui, Lopez, Kebbal)?
The question arises match after match at Charléty.
Alimami Gory, not very successful, symbolized against Laval this lack of confidence and precision that affected his team.
While he had been excellent at Geoffroy-Guichard, Jaouen Hadjam curiously stayed to warm up without returning.
The only smile of the evening was the return as holder (due to the suspension of Ivan Filipovic) of Vincent Demarconnay who for his 338th match under the colors of Paris FC was irreproachable.
The supporters have also chanted his name several times… For the rest, boredom has touched Charléty.
Taped in the soft belly
“Me, I was not bored because I had to find solutions, cut Thierry Laurey.
We took offensive options at the end but that was not enough.
We did not spread the game enough, we lacked precision in the last gestures and movements.
Compared to Rodez and Valenciennes where we got lost, there we were at least homogeneous and vigilant.
Everything is certainly not to be thrown away, but it is still insufficient.
The paradox is that we work better with ten outside…”
With this sad draw which is added to its three losses in a row, the record of Paris FC at home this season is indeed just calamitous.
He only took 5 points out of 18 (1 win, 2 draws, 3 losses).
He remains glued to 10th place, far from his objectives.
At best if he takes points in Bastia and against Metz, he will reach the truce of the World Cup in this soft underbelly.
Otherwise, he will be under the threat of relegation.
“It's a disappointment, recognizes Laurey.
After Saint-Étienne, we hoped to reposition ourselves.
But we remain in the middle of the table.
If we want to come back, we will have to win games.
It doesn't miss much each time but it does miss some things.
There are no miracle recipes for scoring this small goal which often makes the difference in L2.
We just have to keep working to fix it.

Parisian leaders have so far been patient.
But the annoyance begins to win the ranks of the faithful of the club.
After two seasons close to the heights, the fall is brutal despite a workforce that seemed superior on paper.
