Lyon have won Ligue 1 seven times. They used to hold a monopoly over French football until PSG emerged in the 2010s. They are a giant of a club.
But 10 games into the 2023/24 season they are rock bottom of the league having not won a single match.
What on earth has happened to Olympique Lyonnais?
Seb Stafford-Bloor explains. Marco Bevilacqua illustrates.

Damn 😢
Keep calm! THE MIRACLE has come 5 months ago! From the last place by far in november we reach the 6th place and EL qualifying! Right now the club is going to fight for the podium and CL this season
Nice video. I watched it a few months ago while worrying. You should make another one about our club, now that we qualified for Europa league. 😜
And now they’ve qualified for Europe, crazy
OL🦁💙❤️
they did turn it around brilliantly to be fair
Let's go 69 la trik
aaaaaaand we're back, ALLEZ L'OL!!!
They are not in danger anymore
What went wrong at Lyon? Them being overpaid and those “professional” players being stupidly lazy.
Great video. That was only 3 months ago. So much as changed since.
Tifo videos are usually great, but you should have googled how to write Bruno Guimarães and Lucas Paquetá this time…
Regarder le match de football de Lyon… Comme un malade handicapé ?!! TRÈS STUPIDE.. !!
Karma came to them after trying to cheat against West Ham in the europa league
Look at Manchester UTD.
Manchester en route. 😩😂🤞🏾
Lyon supporter here : I think that the main reason is the building of our new stadium : we are the owners of the stadium so its cool bc we can take 100% of benefits made on matchdays and events but we have to pay insane amount of money so while the club need to pay, we can't buy good players since ~2012
The management under Aulas last years was also really bad :
transfers like 12M€ on Amin Sarr are unbelievable
Olympique Lyon used to win consecutive league titles 🤣 you had the odd championship that Marseille popped up or Monaco but usually it was Lyon. How time changes everything
This will be Manchester United's story next season.
£320m in debt? Why is it if you owe £40 you've got neeks coming to your door and these guys can rack up debts like that with no consequence?
SIGN ME!What is this?!DO I HAVE TO BAG?!
Can you do it for another massive french club which is falling appart : Bordeaux, ranked 17th in Ligue 2
It's because Lyon has never been a big club. They had a couple good years but in general history they are a medium level club
This is what happens when you sell your top players every year
Now Grosso has been sacked
Please cover the Everton story. Thank you for the amazing job you guys do.
you guys should do a video-essay on Botafogo situation in the Brasileirão (Brazil's main football competition). They're owned by the same man who bought Lyon (Textor) and they absolutely destroyed the first half of the competition in 2023 (best campaign in history, they had 13pts ahead of the 2nd place, basically eyeing a easy title), but the downfall after October was surreal. It's something we brazilians never saw before.
The league table at 10 seconds is wrong. Maybe losses and draws are switched?
Not surprised God above all
Sad decline of our beloved football
Now explain what went wrong with my life
It has to be noted that Lyon was already a sinking club just slower. The factors mentionned in this video just made it spectacular.
It's a club that were once a pioneer i the modern football era.
It's one of a first club that had people whosejob were taking care of foreign players, to help them adapt in their new country.
Unfortunately they were too complacent. We are france too club. That's how we became the best so we are not going to change anything. But football changed from 2000 to 2020.
John Textor is doing a great job with Botafogo so far. Paid a lot of the club's debts and we're serious contenders for the title (flirting with the biggest bottlejob in history) for the first time in 28 years. In less than 2 years, he totally reshaped the club's structure and finances and we as fans, can be disappointed with the result at the end of the season, but it's more than clear that Botafogo is in another path right now.
lyon in the mud. i'll be there, always
Nicolas Tagliafico is the unlucky to be at disastrous club after winning world cup with international team..
Oh wow, yet another clueless American owner. What's new?
What's gone wrong with the table at start of the video?
