Anyone watch Stade Rennais regularly?
No, why?
Anyone watch Stade Rennais regularly?
Fekir with a 'worldy'...so to speak. Good strike and all but Mandanda is better than that. My usual stream is on fookin ski jumping instead of this game so I'm on a somewhat dodgy stream and this fog ain't helpin...Heads up tonight, one of the leagues best fixtures as Lyon take on Marseille with both having decent ish seasons.

Have to admit that my dodgy stream had me focusing a little more on the Barca game as i could actually see it. Of what I could see I made a mental note of being happy that they showed the ability to shut a team down. Don't know if you saw the Amiens game but they were all over Lyon in the first half and should have been home and hosed by halftime.Just finished watching it. Not a classic, Lyon got a goal up and then basically shelled the rest of the game, and I remain very unimpressed by Genesio, who seems to have no over arching philosophy, his teams seem to play in phases. Lyon were defensively pretty good today, but Marseille were also a bot toothless.
Have to say Aouar was pretty quiet today, and NDombele was probably Lyon's best player, I was really impressed with him today, strong, positionally good, clever feet and played out of trouble well. If I could take both these tomorrow, I would.

NDombele can carry and pass the ball from the 6 (not Busquets-like but you get my point) so no complaints from me. Who would have thunk it that we would miss Big Vic's passing from CM. When you are missing Wanyama's passing things are not going great. Winks has gone full Scott Parker. He didn't even check to see if he had space or could turn yesterday. Just dump the ball to the first man in sight, always backwards or sideways.
What's your take on Kondogbia? He's showing more in Valencia than he did at Inter.
And it's good to see TFC handle their business this weekend. One whole point above the zone. Strasbourg is surprising this season however. Not seen them play but they did beat PSG and now the mighty Le Tefece.

Ndombele’s only on loan at Lyon, they have the option to buy, so would actually be gettable in a similar way to how we got Toby
Went over to watch them, thinking of buying house over there... they're fairly shit..No, why?

It is a lovely area, reasonably priced..seeing Mapped close up is a treat..I'm gonna have a think about it & still have to go to Toronto in New Year before I decideRennes aren't to bad, seem to produce some good kids (eg Dembele - Barca via Dortmund) and it doesn't really matter if they aren't great, you get to see all the other teams as well, PSG, Lyon, Marseille, Monaco etc and atmosphere is much better at French football grounds - even the smaller clubs - than English grounds.
Had to post this - Nantes v PSG, coming to the end of the game and this happens
I've never seen the likes of that before.
This one works! Bloody bizarre.
ArsenalReally wish we would just pay what ever is necessary for Fakir, such an incredible player. Wonder where he will end up.
