Paulo Fonseca faced his first crisis since his arrival at Olympique Lyonnais, according to Nicolas Puydebois, former OL player. The Portuguese is partly responsible for the elimination of his team in the Europa League and the defeat in the derby against the ASSE, taking a frying approach in the matches at stake.

Nicolas Puydebois believes that Paulo Fonseca has completely foiled in the last few weeks. “We were starting to see Paulo Fonseca in Ligue 1 games, but where we’re really waiting for him to pass a course and see if it’s really the coach who can take OL to the highest level, it’s in the games at stake: Manchester United, Saint Etienne… Now we feel like he’s drowning. We find Akoukou in the hat, we don’t know where he comes from when we saw him playing, we know he’s very rust and he’s not technically,” he explained for Olympic-and-Lyonnais.com.

The Nemanja Matic case has also reacted recently because of its use in the dual confrontation against Manchester United. Injured at the hip, he did not take part in the derby against ASSE last Sunday, causing difficulties to the Lyon milieu to get the ball out properly.

After a day of rest following the defeat in the derby, OL players returned to training this Tuesday, reinforced by some young people who did not make the trip to London with the reserve. If Corentin Tolisso was logically not of the part, he who left Saint-Etienne in crutches, Paulo Fonseca was able to count on the return of Matic in this collective session. A reinforcement that won’t be too much before the last four Ligue 1 games.
