I haven't accepted the president's offer to continue to coach OL next season. I feel I need to take a break. I have found it very difficult to accommodate the role of coach in my life. It's very demanding, but also very passionate.

 

..

 

I won't be coaching another team come July. I really need to take a break. I'm not worried about my future at the moment. I need a break to breathe a little. For these three years, my family has been by my side. I need to recharge to come back strongly. I had a number of long discussions with Jean-Michel Aulas, who tried to get me to change my mind. It was a very personal decision that had nothing to do with the club's project. I was worried I wouldn't have as much energy. I don't have a career plan. I really loved this job. We will see what the future holds. You need to keep a clear head in this job.

 

He has made this decision for family and personal reasons.

 

Hmm.

This seems like a decent summary of Garde (from a Spurs fan admittedly):

Tactically flexible, sound experience at youth and academy level and a preference for possession-based football, but supposedly horrendous at the back. May also be willing to work under the various constraints of our system as apparently Lyon's owner (Aulas?) has been asset-stripping over the last few years.

OL were fun to watch everytime I saw them in the CL under Garde. That's all I can say.

 

'fun', doesnt sound too good! the African nations cup goalkeepers are 'fun to watch'

 

I do think an African nation cup pitch adds to the fun value

Journo at BBC Radio Derby:

I understand that Steve McClaren has spoken to Derby County CEO Sam Rush this evening and reiterated his commitment to the club. McClaren has told Rush that he is categorically going nowhere. You'll hear from Sam Rush on @BBCDerby tomorrow morning. Quotes to come.
