Great start to the season by lyon. Garde is doing great

Great start to the season by lyon. Garde is doing great

The biggest change so far is in the attitude. The players with Puel had the loser attitude, always seemed afraid to play or were crumbling under the pressure and bad tacticts. With Garde they all seem to enjoy playing together and they really have found a soul. We are still undefeated this year so far, despite not always playing well, because the team reacts and fight back on the pitch.

[OLpower]

Bordeaux got the draw at home against Lille 1-1. They missed a penalty at the 80th.

Hazard striked again.

[RealGunner]

Lille are not having a good start.

[OLpower]

They are doing quite good. They dominate most of their match with their style of play but without Gervinho, Cabaye and Rami they have lost important players. Sow is also less good this year.

But they do have the best player of ligue 1 currently. Hazard is really pushing them above in the rankings. If his form drops, they will start losing points.

[OLpower]

Both Lille and Marseille conceding the draw at the very end of their matchs.

Marseille played the whole second half with 10 men and resisted until the very last seconds of the injury time. Mandanda saved a penalty in the FH.

[OLpower]

Lille could not do better than 1-1 at home against Evian. I watched the end of the game it was strange, very open as Lille had a lot of players attacking so when they were losing the ball Evian was having 3 vs 3 to play but each time it failed short. And Lille could not create chance, their cross were poor, and there was always a defender to counter their attempts.

[RealGunner]

was joe cole playing ?

[OLpower]

was joe cole playing ?

Yes he was. He was very busy while his teammate looked spent. Hazard ghosted.

[OLpower]

Our league is really really poor.

OL losing at HOME to Rennes, disgraceful.... Montpellier beating OM and being first with the same number than PSG who just lost at home to Nancy.

This season is a big letdown.

[OLpower]

Montpellier won with a hat trick by Giroud, who has now scored 11 goals in 15 matchs. They are now leader. Lille won 2-0 at home against Brest.

Rennes won too.

All difficults results for us, if we lose to Auxerre today, we will be 6th, 10 points behind Montpellier.

OM vs PSG today will be the main match

[OLpower]

Paris two consecutive defeats really make it a lot more competitive.

Montpellier looks like the top team right now, but they are not as talented as the other team even if they play very well, I don't think they will last the whole season.

[OLpower]

Montpellier crushed Lorient 4-0 with another amazing performance from Giroud.

Marseille and Lille also won.

They put pressure on Paris and Lyon tomorrow.

[RealGunner]

Montpellier are the real deal

[OLpower]

They are starting to be worriyng.... However they don't have a deep squad and with the CAN, Belhanda , Saihi and Utaka are going to miss a few matchs.

They will be fall champion but I can't accept them as champions.

[OLpower]

Montpellier lost at Valenciennes, good result !!!

Paris won at Sochaux 1-0, Gameiro scored and Kombouare grasped some air.

Marseille and Bordeaux made a goalless draw. Tomorrow Lorient vs OL and Lille is playing too.

[OLpower]

Montpellier failed to beat Toulouse at home.

We took the three points and we are now 2 points behind them.

Paris plays Lille tomorrow at Parc des Princes. Big big test for Paris. Lille only lost one time this season so far (against Montpellier).

[OLpower]

PSG-Lille ended in a boring 0-0, Pastore was booed.

The first 4 are within two points.

[RealGunner]

it was a CRAP match. So boring

[RealGunner]

moved back here

[OLpower]

Thanks a lot.

Lille won at Lorient and put us under pressure. We have to win tomorrow at Bordeaux to not be far from them.

Marseille just drew against Valencienne at home, bad results for them but Valenciennes is always very painful to play.

Tomorrow, the big clashes between PSG and Montpellier, the two leaders.

[RealGunner]

Who would u root for ? I hope Montpellier win

[OLpower]

It would be quite epic if Montpellier pulled ahead tomorrow. I quite like some of their players and their president, but absolutely hate their coach. They are also a butcher team, but much less this year.

Anyway, 10 minor injuries and 5 red cards would be good.

[OLpower]

2-2 between PSG and Montpellier at Parc des Prince.

It did not reflect the match, big domination from Montpellier, especially in second half, Hoarau saved Paris with a late equalizer.
