Coach: Claude Puel
Before he replaced Vahid Halilhodzic in 2002, Claude Puel had spent his entire career at Monaco. As a player for the principality outfit, Puel won two Ligue 1 titles and one Coupe de France, and became assistant Coach immediately after retiring in 1996. Inspired by everything he learnt from former Monaco boss Arsène Wenger, Puel worked his way up to becoming first-team Coach in 1999, and masterminded the team's championship triumph a year later. Cruelly sacked the following season, Puel has transformed Lille into a force to be reckoned with, based on sound organisation, attractive play and putting faith in youngsters. He has nonetheless expressed his frustration at the city's failure to back the team, which almost led him to take the Lyon job in 2005. |
