I guess unless Ibra gets injured, then we wont see Lavezzi and Cavani together much, which is a shame.

Nice unselfish header from Zlat, though he may have been trying to put it in, haha. Good run by Maxwell to finish it.

It'll be interesting to see how Monaco get along tomorrow. Ranieri will probably make a right mess of everything for the first few matches which should be entertaining.

Im pretty impressed that Pastore and Verratti manage to play together as well, although Pastore always did play higher up at Palermo.

In Italian, but it looks like Monaco's points penalty has been removed http://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio_Estero/Ligue1/13-08-2013/monaco-annullata-penalizzazione-squadra-ranieri-ora-primo-posto-20957501531.shtml They still have to play a game behind closed doors though.

So I just read in the Gazzetta that Menez and Blanc aren't getting along and that he might leave if the team lets him. Has he played much at all this season? He was so good for Roma and I'd love to see him back in Serie A.

Hegav posted:RIP French football. The clubs is on strike and I wouldn't be surprised if we see an exodus of talent in the winter and summer window. Thiago Silva please come home and bring Ibra with you. Have all the teams agreed to the strike at this point? I remember that a few of them were opposed. I imagine only the infinite money teams (PSG, Monaco) could weather something like this and continue to pay the salaries that they already pay out.

tetsman posted:One of the things the syndicate of professional football clubs wanted to achieve was the non-retroactivity of the new tax raise on older contracts, but the French government kept their position. The tax of 75% will remain in place for two years and football teams won't count with any exceptions. 120 players will be affected as well as 14 teams on the Ligue 1, but no Ligue 2 teams will be affected by the new taxation. That retroactive sponsorship thing PSG signed makes more sense in light of this, even if the government stood strong.

tetsman posted:Welp, Tuttosport is a Juventus rag and nothing should be taken seriously from them. Not that this really matters anymore, but Pogba just signed a contract extension too. I can't see Juve getting rid of him, he's the perfect Pirlo replacement, and Pirlo will never make it a whole season again.

trem_two posted:Yeah it all boils down to Raiola getting his agent fees, so as long as Juve keeps renegotiating contract extensions Pogba should stick around for at least a couple more years. I forgot that piece of poo poo was his agent. I hope a mob of Milan, PSG and Inter supporters trample him to death some day.

Also I heard Niang has scored 2 goals since moving, one in the Coup De France and another from a penalty rebound on the league. Hope he keeps it up.

Nice tetsman is back. (Tetsman for mod imo) I hate to use the Jozy excuse for such a great player, but is there a consensus that Falcao just isn't getting the support play he needs to be at the top? Ibra doesn't need any really but I think Falcao is as good as Cavani, if not better. Still 9 is nothing to scoff at.

trem_two posted:Thiago Motta signed a two year extension through 2016. His contract was set to run out this summer, and he had been mentioned as a possible target this coming transfer window for a few Italian clubs since PSG have about 50 midfielders. He still plays pretty regularly right? I think he must be because he's on a lot of Prandelli's lists for possible world cup players.

trem_two posted:They can sell players, but not sign any senior team players until the transfer window opens in June 2015. This is going to cripple them isn't it? A big club can probably survive just fine on their good players and whatever ten thousand youth players they own (Chelsea) but a mid or lower table side without a chance to improve is really hosed. This must put an enormous amount of pressure on the manager, now that I think about it.

PSG wins the title if they win or draw this weekend right? They look to be in the exact position Juventus is in w/r/t Roma.

Method Mango posted:PSG doesn't play until Wednesday since their opponent for this week (Rennes) is playing Guingamp in the final of the French Cup tomorrow. Guingamp is also Monaco's opponent this week, so their game is also pushed back to Wednesday, although it will end as PSG's match starts. That means if Monaco doesn't win, PSG will be champion before they kick off. However, if Monaco wins then PSG will have to win to "officially" be champion, because right now they're 8 points up with 3 matches left. If they draw and Monaco wins then they'll be 6 up with 2 matches left, but with a 25 goal differential cushion right now. All this is a lot of words to say that yeah, PSG is champion if they win or draw on Wednesday, but it won't be official if they draw. I think I've asked this before but is the first tie breaker in France head to head results? I find that to be a much better metric than who managed to score 20 goals against bottom of the table sides. Now that I think about it, it's the same for Juve. If they draw then they'll have to draw or defeat Roma in the next match for it to be official. It wont happen as they'll win, but weirder things have happened.

Method Mango posted:Yeah I thought about mentioning that since it's based on head to head in Italy right? In France the first tie breaker is total goal differential. Yup, it makes for some nasty relegation/playoff/playout scenarios in the lower leagues all the time.

I hope Bielsa does well because I like his style, but can Marseille really hope to compete with Monaco and PSG? Hopefully they can be like Atletico in Spain this year but I feel the gap might be even more absurd in France now.
