Big problem at OL, Pierre Sage is going to have a hard time

OL saved a point this Friday evening on the LOSC pitch. Once again, the Gones will have been in the reaction, which surprises quite a few observers of the Rhone club.

OL were once again hooked in Ligue 1 this Friday evening. On the LOSC pitch, Pierre Sage's men were behind for a long time. But the Gones will be able to thank, as often, Malick Fofana. Still, these two points lost in the north of France do not really help matters for Olympique Lyonnais, who missed a great opportunity to move up the rankings. If the strength of character of the Rhodaniens is underlined, especially against an opponent in form like LOSC, the start of the meeting is on the other hand deplored. It's not Dave Appadoo who will say the opposite.

OL, a problem deeper than imagined?

On the set of The Channel L’Equipethe journalist in fact indicated regarding the attitude of Les Gones: “OL, the start of the season was not good. They are coming off a disappointing draw against Auxerre which cost them time. I'm struck because how in this match, from the first second, they don't come in with drooling at the mouth, telling themselves that they're going to sort it out? There is an attitude problem, with nonchalance. At the start of the match, I had the impression that they were champions with a 15-point lead, that it was a match of the summer”. After 10 days of Ligue 1, OL are provisionally 5th in the championship. A correct assessment but somewhat disappointing given the investments made last summer during the transfer market. We will have to restart the machine as we approach a week of the utmost importance which will begin, with a trip to Hoffenheim in the Europa League and the reception of AS Saint-Etienne in Ligue 1.
