Moussa Dembele speaks about his experiencing of playing for Lyon




He said: "When you come to a new club, “it's not always easy at first. You have to learn a different style“ and work with a new coach and get his views. It certainly took me a bit of time, but I feel I am learning all the time. At Celtic, we had a lot of the ball and we played on the ground. But at Lyon, the football is at another level and it took time to adjust to it. It's taken some time for me to make my mark, but “I am getting there“."

Dembele had endured a mixed run of form during the first half of the season and he managed just six goals for Les Gones across all competitions. However, since the turn of the year, his form has improved and he has netted five goals from the previous seven appearances. As such, he has managed to command a regular starting role and it remains to be seen whether he can maintain the consistency during the forthcoming months. Lyon are currently third in their league table, six points ahead of Montpellier, who have an extra game to play.
