• Two days after failing in the Champions League race, Rudi Garcia embarked on a media tour on Tuesday to defeat Juninho.

  • Until then silent, the sports director of OL prefers to reserve his answer this Wednesday (6 p.m.) on the club's channel in Lyon.

  • Jean-Michel Aulas and Bruno Guimaraes were quick to tackle these media outings by Rudi Garcia, thus reaffirming their support for Juninho.

Just two days after the fiasco against OGC Nice (2-3), synonymous with a new season without the Champions League, Rudi Garcia officially declared open the time for settling scores at OL. The now ex-Lyon coach relied on his legendary bad faith to play the chief sniper on

L'Equipe

and RMC Sport, with only one target in the sights: Juninho. "He did things behind my back", "he put free kicks against his camp this season", "he lacked objectivity and fair treatment" are among the courtesies delivered by Rudi Garcia against his former sports director.

If the Brazilian has so far preferred not to enter the media war launched by Garcia, he should still scratch him this Wednesday, since he is expected at 6 p.m. on a program on the club channel.

The seven-time champion of France as a player with OL in any case very quickly received leading support on Twitter.

Starting with its president, who was quick to castigate the attitude of his ex-coach.

Bruno Guimaraes criticizes Garcia's "lack of consistency"

Declaring himself "very disappointed with the scorched earth policy" of the latter, Jean-Michel Aulas believes that "Rudi Garcia is rewriting history", while "forgetting that he had the best workforce".

"What a bad apology from Rudi", continues JMA, which ensures for the 137th time that it is indeed "Juni" who had chosen Garcia on the bench in October 2019. Yeah ...

Everything started to not work when he lacked consistency on your part !!!

Main rookie 100% Juninho and long frustrated on the sidelines this season, Bruno Guimaraes also went there with an astonishing tweet to attack Rudi Garcia on Tuesday night.

"Everything started not to work when he lacked consistency on your part," slips the Brazilian midfielder.

At this rate, the leaders and the players of Lyon will end up having as hateful memories of Rudi Garcia as most of the supporters.
