Defeat was forbidden and the navy and white, staff and players, did not miss the meeting this Sunday, April 10 with the 3 to 1 victory against Metz which still gives reason for hope.
Against Montpellier we had hit rock bottom!
For the former player and coach of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Gernot Rohr, not only has Bordeaux regained a positive momentum, but our competitors are also struggling. So we have to try something against Lyon to prolong this dynamic
With this small friendly victory against Alaves, then the draw also anyway in Lille, ten against eleven and for the first time, without a goal conceded could already give hope for a slight improvement. And it was absolutely necessary to confirm. Against Metz, it was done. So, I think that the trend has now become positive again and that, on the other hand, the two clubs which precede us, that is to say Saint-Etienne and Clermont which have suffered major defeats, are on a negative trend. Even if we don’t win in Lyon, it’s still important to continue with this state of mind and to play a good match to get the necessary points in the upcoming matches – Gernot Rohr
Against Metz, we saw the paw of David Guion
However the first 45 minutes were trying. The pre-match was already with a team composition that surprised more than one observer. It is (finally) the touch of David Guion according to the influencer and fan of the Girondins de Bordeaux Neil Narbonne
he put in a composition that was completely new compared to the others. Everyone was a little surprised by what we saw that Adli was not a starter. He played with two 6s, at four and not at five like the last match, so he also changed the way he works. We feel that Guion is really starting to perceive each player. And me, I am confident against Lyon because I know that the big teams, we always manage to find this motivation, while the small teams are very hard to play – Neil Narbonne
And why not bring back points from Lyon?
With a coach who is starting to know his squad, let’s remember that David Guion has been in Bordeaux for 2 months, and this brand new positive dynamic why not go for a shot in Lyon. This is in any case the opinion of Gernot Rohr
You have to go to Lyon with a conquering spirit against a tired team, can be qualified and who will have the European Cup in mind more than the championship where they are left behind. A good shot to play. Above all, don’t hide. You have to go there, dare and conquer – Gernot Rohr
It’s true that Lyon will play in the European Cup on Thursday evening and they are currently 10th, 5 points from the first qualifying place for Europe next season and the Europa League Conference could well be the only hope of saving a lackluster season. So after the draw in Lille, why not a shot in Lyon.
