Lyon in crisis, Hervé Penot demands the right time
Olympique Lyonnais ended the year 2021 very badly by conceding a disappointing draw against FC Metz in Ligue 1. Les Gones are increasingly worrying fans and observers.
Olympique Lyonnais started the new Ligue 1 season with a lot of ambition. But it is clear that mid-season, the account is not there at all. Peter Bosz’s men are 13th, nine points off the podium. What logically worry the fans and observers of the Lyon club, which does not seem able to find the right solutions for the moment. Internally, Juninho’s upcoming departure has also raised questions about the club’s management. For Hervé Penot, it is difficult to analyze the dynamics of Olympique Lyonnais despite the complicated situation in the standings.
Hervé Penot worried about this attractive OL on paper
On his account Twitter, the journalist has indeed given his opinion on the subject. “Bosz has not succeeded in implementing his philosophy, but sometimes you have to know how to put your back on the leaders. Accept that it takes time. To come back stronger in the second part of the season. Very bad evening for Olympique Lyonnais against Metz but returning to a more classic team in the second half, it was very interesting. With a Rayan Cherki as a blaster. One observation: First last year at the break, 14th here with a more solid workforce and a huge Lopes. Very complicated. More solid certainly with Boateng Emerson and Lopes at this level. In front of there are people, aren’t they? Memphis was great at one time but was well run last year ”, indicated in particular Hervé Penot, who hopes that the Gones will recover quickly upon their return from the international truce, under penalty of still living long months of crisis.
