Today, OL are in Rhône-Alpes to take on RC Lens. Lens is gearing-up for a return to first division football after last year’s soujourn in L2 purgatory.

Last week was the first action of the summer against Nice, in which Ederson had a fine first half, playing in the hole, were we finally got to see him play in position. And he seemed to flourish in the role, scoring in the 9th minute and missing another left- footed shot at the 28th. Our new hitman Lisandro Lopez, won’t make see any action, but our new, sizzling winger Michel Bastos is in the squad, so that should be fun too watch.

By the way, don’t forget, the entire summer schedule is here in this prior post.

Le Groupe: Keepers: Lloris, Vercoutre; Defenders: Bodmer, Boumsong, Clerc, Cris, Kolodzieczak, Réveillère, Seguin; Midfield: Ederson, Källström, Pjanic, Makoun,Toulalan; Forwards : Bastos, Govou, Mounier, Piquionne, Tafer

Out: Lopez, Delgado, Mensah, Grosso.

Please post any links ASAP.
