Laurent Blanc has no longer been OL coach for a few hours. Gennaro Gattuso should take over but will have a lot of work in the Rhône.

L’OL ended its collaboration with Laurent Blanc this Monday. An expected announcement after a nightmarish start to the season. The former PSG coach never really managed to get his hands on the Gones squad. To replace him, the Lyon board is thinking of Gennaro Gattuso. The Italian has a strong character and could have the merit of reviving the dynamic at OL. However, the ousting of Laurent Blanc and the overall behavior of this new Lyon do not please some fans and observers at all. This is particularly the case of Denis Balbir.

Textor dirty accused

 

During a column for But Football Club, the journalist did not mince his words on the subject. According to him, the problem was not necessarily Laurent Blanc and Gattuso could have the same difficulties. “When I see what has been happening over the past week regarding the replacement of Laurent Blanc at OL, I only want to say “well done Textor”! Since the American shareholder has been there, everything has gone wrong. With the exception of the women who won the Champions Trophy on Sunday. But for the men’s team, it’s quite catastrophic. (…) OL is multiplying the bad signals like the sale of Bradley Barcola to PSG at the very end of the transfer window. Today, it’s difficult to have other ambitions than to maintain. If someone had told me one day that OL in 2023-24 would be fighting for their survival in Ligue 1, I wouldn’t have believed it… I find that terrible! The new Lyon leaders have not measured at all the way in which they have sabotaged the work done for years”indicated Denis Balbir in particular, quite worried for OL if profound changes are not made very quickly.
