Two Ben Yedder goals put Monaco into a deserved 2-0 lead, Benedetto got one back against the run of play and then Germain scored a header at the back post when the cameras weren't working and no one saw it xD

2-2 at half time, good match so far.

St Etienne really are fucked up right now. Failing in Europa League, only just outside relegation spots in the league. What's going wrong there?

Jean-Louis Gasset, their coach last year, retired at the end of last season and was replaced by his number 2 Ghislain Printant. He's started terribly and probably won't keep the job much longer, especially since they just lost again at home against Metz.

After such a good start to the season (3-0 and 6-0 wins) under new boss Sylvinho, Lyon have now failed to win in seven games. Today's performance was probably their worst yet, as they lost at home against Nantes. The Brazilian coach's job is under threat already.

Juninho: "The president is very angry, he'll think tonight and make the necessary decision". 

Sylvinho is very isolated in the dressing room, neither the players nor the staff are speaking to him. The end is near.

I find it quite a shame what's happened with him because he is in theory our second best striker. He's better than Iheanacho for me and always has been. The problem is he's not particularly well liked by most of our players by all accounts and he simply didn't work with Vardy - not somebody who wanted to come here to play second fiddle either.

Honestly I think he was the right player at the wrong time.

Saint-Étienne 1-0 Lyon

Another match where Lyon struggle to create chances. Sylvinho plays too defensively, and again left Jeff Reine-Adelaïde on the bench when he's one of the few players that can make things happen.

Claude Puel's first game in charge and he's beaten their biggest rivals and taken Saint-Étienne from bottom of the table to 13th (one place ahead of OL).

Surely their has to be a lot of people already displeased with Sylvinho's appointment. They haven't looked great all year, and the past month have looked absolutely clueless. 

I know it's early, but how long is his leash?

Slimani linking well with Ben Yedder for Monaco's opener. Good partnership being formed.

Monaco's defensive frailties still there though. Just let a youngster run through their defence to equalise.
