Perrin’s To Do List Before Stuttgart
By: Inara | October 3rd, 2007Alain Perrin’s first two CL games in charge of Lyon have hopefully taught him what NOT to do for the next match. But just in case, here is a list of things that Perrin should do before traveling to Stuttgart in two weeks.
- Get a copy of Eric Gerets’s halftime pep talk and then listen to it for 72 hours straight.
- Stop trying to outthink everyone and just use logic when it comes to tactics.
- Tell the players to play football, not rugby – the balls should go into the net, not over it.
- Make the players stand in front of an open goal and keep them shooting until next week.
- Tell Remy Vercoutre that a goalkeeper is actually allowed to touch the ball.
- Either order Captain Juninho to start acting like a leader or get a new one.
- Remember never to start a game without a defensive midfielder somewhere on the pitch.
- Instead of having Lyon’s most expensive player ever decorate the bench, allow him to play.
- Understand that there’s nothing wrong in using the same lineup twice.
- If necessary, bring Cris back onto the team to hack opposition players with his crutches.
Any other suggestions? I am going to find Perrin’s email address and email him my ideas. You think I’m kidding but I’m not. The last two games are the worst EVAR in Lyon’s Champions League history. Until the losses to Barcelona and Rangers, Lyon have never lost by more than two goals, nor have they ever had such a poor start in their CL campaigns.

I don’t know why people would compare Lyon to marseille. Both teams are in transition but Lyon is at the top of the ligue with only two losses in the CL. They can win go on to the second round or even try to WIN the UEFA Cup. That competition that a frecnh club never won but are all thinking is not good enough.
Perrin is ubspar but Marseille is not out of trouble.Posted from

Give Belhadj, Keita or Mounier a real shot. But not just against Barça. This is not the best way to evaluate a player’s value.

54 879. CALL the man who know the best Lyon and Rangers (Paul Le Guen) BEFORE the game, to learn some things about Rangers.
54 880. Stop making joke during the press conference, the day before a 3-0 lost at home.
25 881. Let Toulalan go home if he’s REALLY sick for a game.Posted from

Marseille coach plans ’surprise’ for Liverpool in Champions LeagueSep 28 2007
New Marseille coach Eric Gerets is aiming to cause “a little surprise” when he oversees his first game – at Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday.
The Belgian succeeded Albert Emon at the helm earlier this week and is hoping his new team play as well at Anfield as his old team did on his last visit to Merseyside.
He told http://www.om.net: “My last match with Galatasaray was against Liverpool.
“In England, we played a good match. Liverpool were too strong in the first half and led 3-0, but we came back strongly to 3-2 and even had two chances to equalise. But we didn’t. I hope OM will play as well as Galatasaray did.
“We’ll try to prepare as professionally as possible in order to create a little surprise in England.”

11. Come Back to a real 4-3-3

16. Learn from defeatsPosted from

11. Use Ben Arfa as much as possible

13. Grow some balls and admit when your wrong
14. Give Mounier and Paillot a shot
15. Have a defensive mid on the field no matter what
16. Stop over thinking and complicating tactics
17. Play Benzema in the center
18. Sell Baros and Fred and buy Briand and whoever else will actually score
19. Dont be afraid of loosing to the point that you do
20. Never admit defeat, ever. Lyon are not losers, there winnersPerrin has to have a lifestyle makeover before he gets all those things down.

Here’s one more:
205. Stop making emotional decisions. Bench players because they suck. Don’t play them just because (including Juninho). Buy a goalkeeper next time Coupet is out. Don’t trust L2 fodder Vercoutre.

11. Also explain to Remy Vercoutre that he can move off of his line, move his hands, stretch his arms and god forbid ANTICIPATE (didn’t he learn anything training next to Coupet? )
12. If that doesn’t work steal Marseille’s goalie until DecemberPosted from

I told you guys Itandje would have been a good choice, but no we buy some guy i never heard of and now Vercoture is doing what i thought he would do, suck balls. While Itandje sits the bench at Liverpool, and appears incredibly frustrated because he knows he could have been playing for Lyon right now.
