Ligue 1 2018/19

[gary69]

Ismaila Sarr was abusing the opponents on the right flank all the time. The slower defender was left in hopeless one-against-one situations way too often. The defenders would have needed to work in tandem to neutralize him.

 

[Evilo]

Yeah. More likely the refs are protecting.... Rennes, out of all teams.

 

[Cassano]

Yes.
Two reasons :
1/ Refs are favouring him because... they're the 10th ranked L1 team.
2/ Or their speed cause the opponents to foul them a lot in difficult positions.

Take your pick.

Well Ligue 1 already gave them a vacation mid season so I wouldn't bet against it.

 

[Evilo]

Yes, and UEFA gave Arsenal a more favourable home and away draw.
Don't worry, they'll help you if you need

 

[Mr Plow]

Apologies in advance if this is utter bullshit, but is there anyone who speaks French who would be interesting in summarizing this? Apparently it is quite salacious, so it should definitely be taken with a grain of salt.

 

[Evilo]

First 2 minutes he says pretty much nothing.
He wonders about Verratti's health since he's supposed to be smoking. Points to Ronaldinho's career.
He says players were "booking for the thursday night plans" hours before the game.

Says PSG is not "minimizing the risks of losing" (with non existant arguments).
Says Neymar has been admirable this year and shouldn't be blamed for anything.
Says PSG is doing well expending ressources because of FFP restrictions, but can't enrich the roster as they want because of it.
Says Nasser can't decide by himself because of people put around him.
Says someone is taking cocaine among the officials but is protected by Doha.
Says PSG fans are outstanding in CL matches abroad.
Says it's PSG officials who talk to journalists about Henrique.
Says there's no crisis communication ready in case of failure.
Says some people are incompetent but are happy not doing anything.

 

[Mr Plow]

Why would PSG officials bad mouth Henrique to the press? What an awful environment if true.

 

[Evilo]

Franlky, there isn't much of anything worthy in this video. Seems like someone radomly spewing shit to get views.
If the Henrique thing is true (again, I don't believe it), it has to come from Tuchel or his supporters.

 

[Power Man]

Atal

 

[Juve]

Lol

 

[Power Man]

Good

Some parents are stupid tbh

 

[ecemleafs]

looks like the moose with another goal today.

 

[gary69]

After being critical of Di Maria often playing bad last season, I must admit that he has been much better this season under Tuchel. Like tonight.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Di Maria could’ve had a hat-trick, looked like Mbappé refused to give him the PK.

Yep, he has. But he still comes up short in many important CL games (he's not the only one though).

Balotelli has a Rashford T shirt under his jersey in case he scored

[Power Man]

Happy to see my boy Youcef Atal nominated for the Marc Vivien-Foe award

But Pepe is going to win it for sure.


Also : clutch goal from Bensebaini in Lyon to eliminate OL !

[Evilo]

Yeah Ben Arfa is sick. One of the best pure talents in the world. Too bad his head is not up to par.

 

[Il Mediano]

damn

 

[gary69]

Strabourg equalizes and then Choupo-Mouting stopping an Nkunku shot going in on the line.

 

[Evilo]

Choupo actually scored.

For the first time at home this season. After being supported at every touch throughout the season by the home fans. Amazing

 

[Deficient Mode]

I found your twitter account @Duchene2MacKinnon

 

[Juve]

Watching this game makes me say Buffon should have retired at the end of last season. Why tarnish an amazing career?
