A failed start to the season, a lively transfer window and a permanent climate of crisis for several months: it is in this context that Olympique Lyonnais is plunged at the dawn of this 2023-24 campaign. Les Gones remains on a rout against Montpellier at Groupama Stadium (1-4). ” We were very bad against Montpellierrecalled Laurent Blanc at a press conference. We concede two goals from set pieces. Do you agree with me? We do not go up on a corner, we can correct that very easily. I think from a corner that we can score, it’s not my philosophy not to do so. I put myself in against Montpellier in the analysis. »
It is in Nice that OL will try to straighten things out this Sunday. Not an easy task according to Laurent Blanc, who expects a quality opposition. “Nice is a good team, which has the means to recruit.

We couldn’t do what we wanted in the offseason and we have serious injuries, but there are points at stake.
