Lyon has shown improvement in recent weeks. So I think the change of authority is actually working for them. The way they have performed so far in this season, it has been really bad. But the last 3 matches have been good for them and they were able to win all three out of the last three matches. So of course we have to give them credit. The good thing is they are already out of the relegation zone. It is going to be hard for them to improve the standing on the table. And it is definitely going to be a lot harder for them to actually finish in a competitive position like in the top six or something. But I think they will be able to stay out of the relegation zone.
Lyon this season is not performing well, starting the season badly and even being at the bottom of the standings, which is their worst peak this season. However, slowly they are starting to recover and are now getting further away from the relegation zone. This was a commendable effort for the squad to see. It is true that returning to competing at the top is difficult for Lyon this season, but at least they can get up and fight to be in the top 10 of the standings this season.
Because for me Lyon was a Ligue 1 powerhouse from 2000-12. Before Qatar came for psg. I remember the Lyon squad when they had Juninho, tiago, benzema, govou, coupet, Toulalan, erin abidal which was a very strong team. But watching Lyon now is really sad, don't forget Lyon has one of the best youth academies in Europe, they produced so many football talents at that time. I hope they will recover soon.
If you have been watching the French league for a long time you may know Lyon was not a weak team and unlike the current situation they have right now, Lyon was even racing for a title with other top teams in the league and they have the experience of playing in Champions League.
But currently, Lyon is far from what we knew from them and they are not in a good situation at all. Lyon was even close to getting relegated during this season.
