Lyon ultras addressed manager Fabio Grosso straight after another disappointing Ligue 1 result – as he pledged not to give up on the role.<\/p>\n

The Italy icon, who played for the club towards the end of his career, has overseen five league matches since taking over from Laurent Blanc in September – and hasn't won any of them.<\/p>\n

The seven-time champions of France who finished seventh last season and have been in the top-fight for 35 consecutive campaigns, sit bottom and six points behind even the relegation playoff spot after drawing 1-1 with Metz.<\/p>\n

Using a microphone after the game, the leader of the ultras said: "The problem is that no one at the club is there to help you during the week or even to be here right now because it isn\u2019t your job to be here in front of us today.<\/p>\n

"If you have something to tell us, say it, and if you don\u2019t want to tell us anything, because it isn\u2019t your job to do so, we won\u2019t hold it against you."<\/p>\n

Grosso listened intently to the speech from the passionate fanbase, understanding their frustration at recent performances and results.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI tell you all the time \u2013 you\u2019re special. We will give you everything because you deserve it. Thank you for everything.<\/p>\n

"We did everything to get the win today. We won\u2019t give up. I promise to give you everything and I hope that will be enough."<\/p>\n

The conversation came a week after an attack on the Lyon bus by Marseille fans forced their Ligue 1 meeting to be postponed.<\/p>\n
