Jérôme Rothen spoke after Olympique Lyonnais’ defeat against Clermont (1-2) on the ninth day of Ligue 1.
OL is doing badly, very badly. And this did not escape Jérôme Rothen. The famous consultant thus reveals, in his show on RMC, the problems in the locker room with Fabio Grosso already abandoned by his players.
“What’s lunar is Textor’s arrogance. I think we can bring out his little laugh if it continues like this. And everything is being done today to ensure that Lyon continues to plummet,” thundered the consultant in the show Rothen ignites. “ Finally, plummeting, they are last in the standings but plummeting in the number of defeats. Because I don’t see how the club, in this situation, can bounce back.“
Called to the rescue following the ouster of Laurent Blanc, Fabio Grosso remains with one draw and three defeats for his debut at the helm of OL. But the locker room is already against him, according to Rothen.
“You put yourself in difficulty because you take a coach who supposedly knew Olympique Lyonnais. I tried to get people from the locker room, and I got them. I’m not going to say the names of course because that could put them in difficulty, but Fabio Grosso is already in the hot seat“.
