It’s now official: Lloris, who apparently was already sick when playing Steaua, is not in the group. He will have the opportunity to reflect on how to be more of a leader vis à vis his back line; and we will have the opportunity to see Vercoutre again, for the first time since a great game in Nancy back in December last year.
I have to say I have a sympathy for the guy. Not that I was totally reassured when he was playing, but he did have some good games during Coupet’s injury, and he is so passionate on the bench when the team plays that he’s a great asset from a team spirit standpoint.

lefutur: I hope so! I really believe he could be a great player, but he was off track last year. His pricetag put a huge burden on his shoulders last season, so hopefully he’s over that. Puel seems to have every confidence in him, which is important, because that in turn makes the player confident.

fabmab, defending players is okay, as is criticizing others for their viewpoints. I said earlier that point you were trying to make was welcomed. But there is no need to mention that some of us should be bombed.

Inara, both dror and yourself are both negative about the players, dror going so far as saying that he hates b’song, which is inappropriate. Someone should defend the players, and as far as anyone could be concerned, I could be one of the players or of some kin to them. Fair is fair. Ban me if you like I care not. I, and my ‘kin’ can take our attentions, endorsements, support and opinions elsewhere, where they will be appreciated.

I think Keita will prove to be a real asset for the rest of the season. His passing is good, his speed is great, he always puts a few dangerous crosses in every game, and yes, he can score spectacular goals. Now that he is fully fit and confident..look out.

Ian: Fred has strike of luck ?? What we can say about Benz second goal. That was big strike of luck. Fred finaly had a good game. Keita also prove that he is in good form. His goal was god damn good.

Defending needs to be sorted out, attack looks good though. its nice to see keita on the scoresheet with a brilliant goal. As for our CB’S boumsong should be dumped into the reserves, cris and mensah need time to blend together. hope our defence gets sorted out soon otherwise we can forget the quarter finals or even the Last 16 knockout stage. If we played chelsea,liverpool, barcelon or man utd today we would have got absolutely battered.

Pauleta has accused Aulas of trying to takeover PSG because Lyon is too small for him.

PSG would be lucky if that was even 10% true.

Lyon almost signed Kompany three years ago, but the club was too confident of his signature, which eventually turned him off.

Kompany has been excellent in a few roles with Man City. He was man of the match in his debut, he would have been an excellent buy. Anybody been watching Collocini at Newcastle? He’s been immense!! We should have bought him.
