Karl Toko-Ekambi and the Lyon fans have had a real falling out. As proof, Lyon fans recently unfurled a banner aimed directly at the Cameroonian. The Cameroonian was quick to take a dig at them. "It's simple, I play football, it's my job, I get paid at the end of the month, I have to do my job. It's a show, and the people in the stands have paid for their tickets, so if they have fun shelling out money and then whistling at the players, that's their problem," the player on loan at Rennes told L'Equipe. He added. "They don't know where I've come from to get to this point. Today, I'm happy, I scored a brace the day before yesterday (last weekend NDLR). And the whistles haven't changed anything, I'm going to keep going. I've come from humble beginnings and I never thought I'd achieve a fifth of what I did today. And I'm going to cry for people who don't know football?
Finally, Karl Toko-Ekambi once again expressed his incomprehension. He sees himself as a scapegoat. "At Lyon, I've been whistled at ever since I hit a post against Bayern. And each time I've turned the tide. I score goals, they stop whistling, I don't score again for two games, they whistle again. That didn't happen last season. Last season, I scored 18 goals, even though I was at the African Cup of Nations and missed a month and a half. And this year, they whistled at me from the start of the season. So the problem doesn't date from today. I scored more than 50 goals for Lyon (38 in reality), they don't know football. This winter, lots of clubs wanted me even though I was rubbish. When you're rubbish, nobody wants you.
