ERIC GERETS gets the coaching gig….
By: Magnusson |Pape Diouf came out of a meeting a few minutes ago to announce the name of the new coach. And it’s Eric Gerets. You might say Eric who? And the only thing I can honestly remember about that guy is that he was the coach of galatassaray while Franck Ribery was there. Aside from that, [...]

The Countdown is now on….
By: Magnusson |Just when you thought it was not possible for us to play worse then we have been doing since the beginning of the season, our players make a point on proving us wrong.

By: Magnusson |Sorry for the lack of updates but there were some technical difficulties on my end these last few days.

Marseille 1-1 Paris SG, the classico videos….
By: Magnusson |Hands down the best first fourty-five minutes of the season. Of any game. Both teams offered us great displays of initiative and enthusiasm. Samir Nasri played his worst game of the season, still not physically fit. Let’s see if his preparation with the Bleus will help him be better. He showed skills but was not [...]
