Rémi Garde (born April 3, 1966 in L'Arbresle, France) is an assistant coach at Olympique Lyonnais and a former footballer. Garde started his playing career at Lyon in 1982, helping the club achieve promotion to Ligue 1 in 1989. Playing as a defensive midfielder or sweeper, he became club captain and made his debut for France against Kuwait in January 1990. In all he won six caps for his country, and was a member of the French squad at Euro 92. Garde left Lyon in 1993 to join Strasbourg, where he spent three seasons and reached a French Cup final in 1995. Garde moved to England in August 1996, joining Arsenal after Arsène Wenger recommended him to the club (Wenger was not Arsenal's manager at this stage, as he was seeing out his contract at Nagoya Grampus Eight). Garde joined on the same day as Patrick Vieira, though unlike Vieira, the 30-year-old Garde was intended to be more of an experienced cover player rather than a future first-team regular. Garde became known for his tidy and reliable performances as backup for Vieira or Emmanuel Petit; he played 43 matches over three seasons for Arsenal, and was a member of the Double-winning side of 1997-98, winning an FA Premier League winners' medal. With age and injury limiting his appearances, Garde retired from professional football in June 1999, just after he had narrowly missed out on a second successive double with Arsenal (who had finished second in the league and lost the FA Cup semi-final to Manchester United).
