OL are not making progress at the start of the season, undermined both on and off the field. The new boss of the club, John Textor, is not spared from criticism.
Two points in seven days, five defeats already and two draws, such is OL’s meager record in the league since the start of the season.

Since the takeover of Les Gones by John Textor, the Lyonnais have gone from disappointment to disappointment.

On the airwaves of RMC this Monday, Christophe Dugarry spares no one, and especially not the American boss: “ Players are incapable of making three passes and winning a match. I don’t mind tapping Textor, we did it and we’ll do it again. It’s a puppet! The club should never have been sold to him. It’s a puppet, we know it, but I call on the responsibility of the players. Unable to win a match or ever lead. They still don’t have the squad to be last. »

They have Caqueret, they have players to win a match all the same. They are the ones and only responsible! »
