Monaco: Frustration and boredom at Louis II

The French Championship 2024/25: A Finale Inadequate for the Supporters of the AS Monaco

The French football championship 2024/25 looks like an endless series, marked by frustrating and uninspired episodes. Despite a three-point lead over the Strasbourg RC, the AS Monaco and its supporters have a feeling of boredom and dissatisfaction.

The draw (0-0) against Strasbourg, played at the Louis II stadium, perfectly illustrates this situation. Both teams took a defensive approach, focusing on prudence rather than creativity. The VAR even cancelled a Strasbourg goal, adding an additional note of frustration. For the first time in the 2025 season, AS Monaco did not win on its field.

Monegasque supporters criticize the tactical approach of Adi Hรผtter, the coach of AS Monaco. They believe that the principles of play, although applied, are harmless and lack variety. They deplore the lack of creativity and unpredictability in the team’s game, and point at players like Takumi Minamino and Breel Embolo, whose positioning seems confusing.

Despite good will, AS Monaco seems unable to turn its workforce into a formidable force. Supporters want a more ambitious team, able to surprise the opponent and stimulate enthusiasm. They express their disappointment and desire for a more panache coach, able to make them dream.

With only four games left, the hopes of AS Monaco finishing on the podium were diminished. The fans are content to hope that the team will succeed in concluding the season, while enjoying this Easter weekend, rich in joy, chocolate and shared happiness.
