After taking stock of OL’s difficult season in Ligue 1, Sidney Govou felt that the Rhone club should look to the future.
Despite the arrival of Laurent Blanc at the head of Olympique Lyonnais at the beginning of October, things do not seem to be improving. Indeed, with a record of 7 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in 17 days, the Rhone club is in 8th place in the Ligue 1 standings, 6 units behind Lille sixth. Suffice to say that for Gones Obtaining qualifying places in European cups will not be an easy task.

“There has been a kind of negative regularity for several seasons”
Given that 5 points separate the Lyonnais from a fifth place, synonymous with qualification for the Europa Conference League, they would have to supplant AS Monaco, fifth, which is no less than 9 points ahead of them. And with the last defeat of the residents of Groupama Stadium against Clermont (0-1) on the 17th day of the championship, many are of the opinion that the season of the seven-time champion of France is already over. Proof of this is the recent remarks of former French striker Sidney Govou, who has resigned himself to the idea that this 2022-23 exercise was a failure for OL, and that it is now time to tackle the subject of reconstruction.
“OL must succeed in rebuilding themselves, tactically, in intentions, in will. Of course, that’s a lot in a short time. There has been a kind of negative regularity for several seasons. Shouldn’t we take the opportunity to rebuild a new team? You need to have money to recruit properly. You have to be reasonable in your ambitions. Maybe it’s a last season without? It is a reflection to have. Nantes is a team that does not have many certainties. They are a bit on alternating current, like Lyon for that matter. », explained the former right winger, adding: ” The only question for OL today is More than the tactical plan or the composition, it’s the attitude that will be important. I don’t think today that OL can return to European places, given the number of points behind, ” he confided.
