Olympique Lyon coach Bruno Genesio is already having to defend the flat form of Memphis Depay.
The former Manchester United has failed to catch fire in his early appearances for OL.
But Genesio says: "Memphis has not played for some time. He is full of quality, he is a player in whom I have complete confidence.
"It is simply necessary that he regains rhythm, a physical level that allows him to express his qualities. There is no concern about that.
"On our return from OM, I heard he was disappointing. Yet I saw he was involved on goal, he made a pass that could have been decisive for Tolisso and creates an opportunity that could have brought the score to 2-2. You can see the glass half full or half empty."
