Lyon midfielder Said Benrahma said he experienced the period when he found himself on the bench rather well.
Said Benrahma has regained playing time and a respectable performance in recent matches. But that was not the case at the start of the season when he found himself on the bench, or even in the stands. A delicate pass but which did not disturb him.
“It hurts (the criticism), but for me, it’s only the pitch that counts. I don’t like to talk, especially during these periods, said the Algerian before the Europa League match against Besiktas. I try to stay focused on work, not to give up. When there are hard times, there are no gifts in football (smile). So I try to stay positive. This is the most important. »
Benrahma accepts competition
The former West Ham player also indicated that the competition within the team did not bother him at all. On the contrary, it leads him to give his all to each of his appearances: “This competition, of course, pulls us up. And so much the better. It’s the terrain that decides. No matter the status. In training, it makes us feel good. There is intensity, everyone is giving their all. That’s good, we must continue this momentum. When you’re a big, ambitious club and you have goals, it’s good to have a group like that. We must continue to keep this state of mind. »
Benrahma has made 7 appearances with OL this season, including 4 as a starter. He scored 2 goals and offered 1 assist. This was after the punishment given to him by Peter Sage had ended.
