It wasn’t all good news in Ligue 1 this year: dodgy fixture delays, shambolic owners, and the sad relegation of an iconic French club.

Le Classique boys are back with friend of the Pod Jonathan Johnson for the second part of our Ligue 1 season review, focusing on the lowlights of the season. Awards for villain of the season, biggest disappointment, and the legendary ‘ballon de plomb’ are dished out. 

To finish on a high, we also list our ‘coups de coeur’ of 25-26. Featuring French wonderkids and chess-playing Russian goalkeepers.
