Raymond Domenech has expressed his concerns regarding Olympique Lyonnais’ season.
OL has (finally) woken up. After starting the 2023-2024 season with two stinging defeats, against Rennes (3-0) and Monaco (0-2), the Gones found themselves on the brink of a precipice on Friday evening against Strasbourg. Trailing 1-3, Pierre Sage’s men completely turned the situation around in the second half, eventually winning 4-3.
Although not everything was perfect, this success will do a lot of good to the Lyonnais. It must be said that they still have in mind their last season where they were close to relegation for a long time. So it is not time to get carried away on the banks of the Rhône. And Raymond Domenech is there to remind us of that.
“It’s a lot to play the leading roles”
After the victory of the Rhone team, the former coach of the Blues expressed concern about the defensive shortcomings of the residents of the Groupama Stadium. And if these were to continue, OL would have a hard time playing the leading roles in Ligue 1 this season, believes the consultant of the L’Equipe channel.
“Always a spectacle in Lyon but 8 goals in 3 matches is a lot to play a leading role “, lamented Raymond Domenech on X. Also in the running in the Europa League, Lyon will quickly have to find a certain defensive solidity if they do not want to relive a difficult season.
