Laurent Blanc at Olympique Lyonnais is an association that could surely have worked… at the end of the 2000s. An old-fashioned coach with an old-fashioned president at the head of an ultra-dominant squad. However, instead of daring to be the first to offer a bench to the 1998 world champion, Jean-Michel Aulas preferred to bet on Alain Perrin in 2007. He had never forgotten him since and, without Juninho’s pronounced doubts, he would have named him head of OL in October 2019.
