OL’s beautiful transfer window – compliments Olympique Lyonnais nicely

OL are resurgent in 2024 and are now terrorizing their opponents, just like OGC Nice’s very cautious speech before this Friday evening’s match.

From a wounded beast to a team in good shape, Olympique Lyonnais has changed its face in 2024. The very ambitious transfer window undertaken by John Textor has left its mark on the minds of the public and Lyon’s detractors. From now on, Pierre Sage has a much bigger squad at his disposal and this was reflected in the performance, as OL allowed victory in Montpellier despite a very poorly controlled match. Lyonnais are getting back into shape and the points are dropping, with a gift from worrying OGC Nice.

Final sprint load, OL as referee of choice

Aeglons’ best player in recent weeks, Ivan Goosend, is expected to suffer as the Assurances try to digest a very difficult derby loss to Monaco last weekend. A 3-2 defeat, with Dante sent off in the process, is not ideal in a Championship where the runner-up spot is of interest to many, while PSG is out of reach. For a Nice striker, OL is no longer easy prey, and the transfer window carried out by Ron Club has left its mark.

” We are going to face a confident Lyon, with great recruitment, and they are playing at home. After our defeat against Monaco they will want to press a bit more. It is going to be a great duel, but we are going to win this match because it will be the first turning point at the end of the season. We are all at 1 or 2 or 3 points. It’s close so it’s a bit of a sprint but we still have a few games. Not so much excitement, we still have a calm energy. That has been one of our strengths this season. We manage to stay calm in every situation, we have to keep a cool head to do things well.”

said Ivan Gussand, for whom this trip to the Groupama Stadium will be complicated. But Jim can’t afford to give up when second place is being chased by Monaco, Brest, Lille and especially Lens.
