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 [...]

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 [...]

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 | 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 [...]

Tomorrow, Lyon will be taking on Hungarian side Debreceni VSC in their quest to qualify for the knockout rounds.

Wow, writing this match preview feels like déjà vu. Oh wait, it’s because I wrote one exactly a year ago, involving the exact same teams and coaches. So here’s hoping the outcome (which was a 2-2 last season) is at least more in our favor this time.

We’ve never played Liverpool in the Champions League before, but we did have two interesting encounters against Fiorentina last season. As for Debreceni VSC, they are a Hungarian team debuting in the Champions League for the first time ever.
I think Lyon could have gotten a lot worse, [...]

He’s already got the abs, the pointy beard, and the move-bitch-get-outta-my-way attitude. He just needs a sword (and a leather loincloth), and then he’ll be all set for world domination.
