Lyon vs. Liverpool: Battle of the Hospital Patients

By: Inara | Comments 143 Comments

Don’t be surprised if you walk into your favorite footie pub tomorrow and see fans of Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Everton wearing OL kits. The match-up between Lyon and Liverpool, while important for Lyon in terms of pride and security, is absolutely crucial for Liverpool. Unfortunately for Rafa’s Bunch of (un)Merry Men, they are [...]

Just some random odds and ends for you to read as you bide your time waiting for Lyon’s Champions League clash with Liverpool.

<— Sid’s Serious Captain-y Face.
If you’re wondering why the captain’s armband showed up on Cris last Saturday, despite Sidney Govou also being on the pitch, it’s because our dear (former?) captain was seen [...]

Liverpool 1 – 2 Lyon: Super Subs Save the Day

By: Inara | Comments 21 Comments

Since so much has been said about yesterday’s game, I’m not going to go too much into it. I just wanted to say how proud I am of my team. We’ve been waiting for this win for a long time. It might just be the group stages, but the biggest criticism of Lyon has been [...]

Liverpool vs. Lyon, aka Pjanic Time

By: Inara | Comments 97 Comments

Pardon the super cheesy title, but after reading Miralem Pjanic’s super inspiring interview this morning, I felt…well, super. Lyon are in first place in their CL group, Liverpool are in the unwelcome position of being in third, and both teams are coming off of weekend losses in their domestic leagues. Both sides are also riddled [...]

Random News and Updates

By: Inara | Comments 19 Comments

With World Cup qualifiers about to take place, there isn’t too much happening at club level. But there are a few articles and updates that caught my eye.
The biggest news is the medical update on Bafetimbi Gomis. Two days ago at Guingamp, Gomis collapsed during practice with the France squad. He was out for a [...]

Lens vs. Lyon

By: Inara | Comments 123 Comments

We’re only 24 hours away from a much needed international break. With Lyon’s upcoming fixture schedule, the boys will need every opportunity to rest up. Of course, that isn’t the case for our international players, but at least the other half of the squad can recuperate from half-healed injuries (I’m looking at you, Lisandro). The [...]
