3 points in 9 matches, the second to last is 2 points ahead with a game in hand. There is confidence then there is desilusion. I can't imagine lyon fans are too happy with this carefree statement.

Weren't you guys close to relegation a few years ago? Or am i remebering it wrong? You have a good squad now!

Yeah, we ended the 17-18 season 1 point clear of relegation playoff. Dire season.

Since then we've had more consistent success with European finishes, a second place and off course the title winning season.

Right now we have a good first team but some roles lack real quality or depth (or both). The shaby transfer window by our president put us in a tight spot for the conference league.
