Random Nuggets

By: Inara | Comments 3 Comments

It’s international week, so things are rather quiet on the Lyon front. Here’s what’s been going on:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fabio Grosso is back in training and is expected to play against Lille on October 18th. This is good news because if he does well, he play against Steaua a few days later. Kader Keita is also training normally, [...]

Foto: Fabio Grosso’s Significant Other

By: Inara | Comments 6 Comments

So today I broke down and finally removed the Hatem Ben Arfa category. It was a tough decision, but my therapist told me that it’s important that I begin the healing process (it was a really bad breakup).
With Ben Arfa gone, I’ve decided that it’s time to upgrade Fabio Grosso to his own category, [...]

Euro 2008 Disaster

By: Inara | Comments 11 Comments

I’ve totally been avoiding writing about this because part of me still believes that it’s only a nightmare…But man, out of the eleven OL players in Euro 2008, only one will be showing his face in the quarterfinals.

I have nine other identical pictures just like this.

To recap:

Official: Miralem Pjanic Signs + Other Transfer News

By: Inara | Comments 15 Comments

This morning, Lyon finally clinched the signature of Miralem Pjanic, who is the hottest talent in France not born in 1987. Lyon have been negotiating with Metz for weeks, but to so many clubs interested, many with late bids, the deal took quite a long time in being crafted. He’s had Europe’s biggest clubs interested [...]

Foto: Fabio Grosso Takes Off His Clothes Yet Again

By: Inara | Comments 13 Comments

Stripping down to his underwear seems to be an alarming habit. But at least he has an excuse this time - Lyon beat Sedan to make it to the Coupe de France finals for the first time since 1976.

I feel like I’ve been writing a lot about Grosso recently. He’s doing something crazy every [...]

Fabio Grosso Bitchslaps a Player, Plus Other Lyon Nuggets

By: Inara | Comments 9 Comments

Fabio Grosso’s week isn’t getting any better. Last weekend, he was verbally abused by Strasbourg coach Jean-Marc Furlan for being a “piece of macaroni shit.” Today, during Lyon’s 2-2 draw against Caen, Grosso was sent off, the third Lyon player to be red carded this year. Apparently, Grosso - who had already received a yellow [...]

Grosso-Gate

By: Inara | Comments 6 Comments

Fabio Grosso doesn’t have many admirers in France. Lyon fans don’t think he’s good enough for the club while non-Lyon fans don’t like him because he’s that Italian from the World Cup. Even the media like picking on him, as they spend a lot of time criticizing his performances and overly scrutinizing his falls as [...]

The 20 Highest Paid Players in France - Lyon Once Again Dominate

By: Inara | Comments 2 Comments

This year, 13 of the 20 highest paid footballers in Ligue 1 are from Lyon. Last year, there were only 11. Which is strange because I could swear Aulas wanted to bring down Lyon’s payroll. Of course, only a handful of players appear on the list of the best 50 paid players in the world. [...]

Arsene Tries to Poach Another Baby, Plus Other Rumors

By: Inara | Comments 13 Comments

The latest transfer rumors involving Lyon…and for once, they don’t involve either Karim Benzema or Hatem Ben Arfa!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is something tres tres disturbing about Arsene Wenger’s fixation with young boys. When was the last time he even looked at someone over the age of 21?
Wenger, who was going a tad overboard with his [...]
