After Lyon’s defeat against Lens, DanieL Riolo severely tackled OL’s winter recruits.
Olympique Lyonnais suffered a crushing defeat against Lens (0-3) on Sunday in Ligue 1, ending a series of six victories. Daniel Riolo, consultant for RMC, did not mince his words and particularly criticized the winter recruits, including Nemanja Matic.
For Riolo, OL have been “returned to their limits”, limits which, according to him, lie in the current squad. The editorialist particularly attacks Matic, who joined the Lyon ranks on January 27.
Riolo has doubts about Benrahma
“Those who saw themselves as too good-looking, who thought that Matic was still a good football player. So handsome football player yes, but efficient, no! I don’t understand why there are people who continue not to see it,” Riolo said. As soon as the level rises, all you have to do is make a small tactical move by putting a player in his path, and it’s over. It doesn’t move, it’s dead. »
The polemicist is also doubtful about other recruits such as Algerian striker Saïd Benrahma. “The players for whom they dropped up to 25 million euros, I’m not sure they are that strong, Saïd Benrahma included,” he judged.
