Official | Lyon handed provisional Ligue 2 relegation and transfer ban - Get French Football News

Lyon have been handed a severe sanction by the DNCG - Direction Nationale du Contrôle de Gestion. The French football financial watchdog has decided to hit

Olympique Lyonnais are going to be relegated (currently 5th) if they don't sort their debt out. Reading that article the owner is going to flog players from a Brazilian club and sell his stake in Crystal Palace to fund it. I personally don't think people should be able to own multiple clubs, especially when 1 can screw over others like this.

Agreed, the whole "City Football Group" should be forced to be disbanded too.

England thrashed the Irish 5-0. We didn’t even use our final form either.

I can go to bed happy tonight.

Both their goals have been Southampton's fault. Southampton should probably be playing with 10 men though.

The first goal was pure stupidity. Amateur hour. No wonder they're bottom of the league. Hoping they cling onto 2-2 and Arsenal get their shit together. I don't want Liverpool or City to win this year. Utd are too far behind so I'll take Arsenal or Chelsea. (Chelsea ideally so we can meme Arteta aka Lego Pep).

It's ok Konate & Robertson will just keep pushing & lunging into their players in the box and nothing else will be given.

Yeah, Liverpool is top of the table without these so-called referee decisions. In fact, they don’t get the benefits of those like the London clubs or the likes of City.

Gotta give LFC credit, they nailed the replacement for Klopp. They develop their youth and make savvy transfers.

They're fucked if/when Salah leaves. He bails you out almost weekly and if TAA goes to Real you'll lose most of your assists too.

Breaking news - Steve Cooper sacked as Leicester manager.

Pretty big if’s there. Do you have anything to add that isn’t straight up conjecture? Or, is that it for your posts regarding the matter?

Of course football stars bail their clubs out of trouble, that’s what they’re signed for. Really strange posts.

Your youth development and savvy transfers... They don't bail you out. Nunez, Gakpo ...

Slots been in post a few months, I'd give him a bit more time before deciding if they really nailed the appointment to replace Klopp.

Not exactly the result i have been expecting, but could have been worse.
Like what Amorin is saying though" implement the system right away, take risks, instead of playing something the players are comfortable with ,win few games and be in the same problem next year"

Agreed, it feels like what Klopp did at Liverpool. Start early with the team trying to transition from what came before to how it's going to be in future rather than wait until pre-season. So we'll have a lot of ups & downs just like Liverpool & Klopp did in that first season or so.

Man City are the first team in UCL history to fail to win after leading by 3+ goals in the 75th minute.

Historical bottling.

See that Pep had scratched his head up, even drawing blood on his nose he was so frustrated with the players? That's not normal behavior.

I'll need to watch the highlights of today's games as I'm out all day. It'll take awhile for Amorim to get the team to play as he wants, it's still the same players afterall. This season will basically be a transition season and then we can kick on next, hopefully.

Yeah.
Also to the play this type of system .
You need players who can hold the ball and play through these crowded situations and intense press.
everton more hungry to win the ball and pressing hard which is making difficult for united in the midfield

Btw United ahead. hope this will give some confidence

I foresee a few outgoings in Jan/Summer that don't suit Amorim's style of play. Yet again spending money due to another manager change & another system.

Also, Zirkzee of all people just scored.

7 without a win for Pep would be a first for him.
I hope the comparisons with SAF stop now.

Worked ok for me. I watched the first half of the City game and then the full Arsenal Vs Utd game. No issues.
