Dugarry launches furious attack on Depay: You're not worthy of Lyon!

Former Barcelona striker Christophe Dugarry slammed Memphis Depay for his performance in Lyon's draw with their Champions League opponents on Tuesday night.

Barca managed to grab a 0-0 draw at Lyon in the first-leg of their round 16 tie.

And Dugarry was left unimpressed by OL attacker Depay, stating: "He made no difference, the one against one he missed them all. There was no intensity. What's his job?

"I have him in my team, I do not know where to put him, if he's a centre forward, a flank player. Before claiming to play for a big club, be worthy! You are not worthy to play in Lyon for the moment."

Dugarry also said of the former Manchester United flop: "We are talking about Denayer, Lopes, Dubois, who have stripped themselves. They are anti stars. You're a star, you did not do the job. He never takes on anyone at speed. I had the memory of him as a powerful and fast player. Even that, he does not do it any more."
