Kickoff tonight with Trophée des Champions PSG/OL.

PSG will be without Marquinhos (Olympics), Thiago Silva (injured), Cavani (injured) and Verratti (on the bench at best) among others.

Kurzawa starts over Maxwell
For now, Trapp starts over Areola

Emery has split the goaltending duties so far, and Areola has looked amazing. Rumor was that he had the preference, but Trapp is starting tonight.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Areola is a beast!

Why isn't Mammana in the squad??

 

[Evilo]

For OL, this looks like the first team squad, without Ghezzal who is "injured" (in a contract dispute).
Fekir is starting
Hopefully he finds his groove back, but most likely in a few months.

Fekir just scored, but he was clearly offside. Trapp made the goal by missing an easy catch.

As for Mammana, I don't know. Probably isn't ready yet.

 

[Evilo]

Pastore scored after a wonderful Kurzawa special.

OL with the better of the play so far, but Kurzawa's class made the difference.

 

[Evilo]

2-0 Lucas now.

 

[Evilo]

Lucas will be much more at ease with Emery's direct play.

As for Mammana, I don't know. Probably isn't ready yet.

Not ready as in not enough training sessions with his new team?

 

[Evilo]

Yes, would be my guess.

Ben Arfa finishes a great move, 3-0.
Poor Lyon. Totally destroyed even though they haven't looked bad.

 

[Evilo]

Could be more really. Di Maria almost scored two wonder goals (one on the crossbar). Could be 5-0. Every single PSG chance seems to be either on the bar or in nets.

 

[Evilo]

Lyon's defense is sinking fast...

 

[Power Man]

Soooo Ghezzal is still with the reserves ?

 

[Evilo]

Nkoulou has been in OM form and Mbiwa in Newcastle form
On the other side of the pitch, Luiz has been very good, but Kimpembe has been dominant.

 

[Evilo]

Kurzawa with his goal. What a player !

 

[Power Man]

Soooo Ghezzal is still with the reserves ?

I think he is injured


Nice finish by Kurzawa
Lyon missing Umtiti

 

[Evilo]

Soooo Ghezzal is still with the reserves ?

Per Aulas' words : "Rachid Ghezzal a un arrêt du médecin. Pour un jour ou pour 46."

Lol Aulas is quite a character

Same.

 

[xavi4life]

Unai Emery is a god. lol

 

[Evilo]

Meh, PSG beat Lyon 5-1 last year in a game.

Emery will be judged on his ability to go further than the QF in the CL.
Blanc won all trophies two years in a row.

4-1 consolation goal by Tolisso.

 

[Power Man]

PSG looked like they barely wanted to lift the trophy they look bored lol

 

[Luigi Habs]

Why Sirigu hasn't been sold yet?

 

[Evilo]

Why Sirigu hasn't been sold yet?

No idea. Both parts want a move, but Sirigu won't go anywhere.
