The team needs a more consistent an reliable player than Pogba who really is a luxury at this point. Yes he may create something out of nothing but the rest of the rime he is a liability.

The thing with Griezmann is that he has never produced any outstanding moment to be forever associated with. In France we will remember his huge contribution to the national team. But even during the 2018 WC all I remember from him are penalty kicks and a soft goal the Uruguyan keeper let in...

Refs should have to account for some of their decisions. Now we won't hear the end of Aulas moaning for years.

I am surprised to see him linked with top clubs like United but English clubs have been keepings tabs on him for a while. He had a solid season in Ligue 1 but it was his first season as a regular. That's all I can remember from him this past season. He seems to be level-headed and willing to...

I don't live in the UK anymore but my impression was that If you asked any set of fans they would say that there is a bias against their team in the media. I guess it's because we tend to remember the negative more than the positive. It's just how human psychology works.

The promoted team that spends the most on tranfers always ends up being relegated.

They are not only great but it's part of the identity of the local area where the club is based. Not many cities have produced so many great bands with a characteristic sound to it. It's one of the things that connects the club to its roots, like City playing Oasis (or whatever they play)...

The Rocky Fanfare is just a generic pumping up track used by so many teams in the world. The Stone Roses has a unique Manchester vibe to it.

The French Ligue 1 is over. Lyon will play the final of the French League Cup at the end of July and the Champions League in August. Also Memphis is rumoured to leave Lyon this summer as they didn't qualify to European football.

It should also remind us that Pogba is the not the type of player to elevate the team by himself. When he played for Juve he was surrounded by Vidal, Marchisio and Pirlo who gave him a platform to shine.. He is a brilliant cog in a well-functioning machine but not the main engine.

Pogba thrives when he feels that players around him are at the same level. You can see that he trusts Bruno. Long may it continue, hopefully with a Matic replacement coming in.

To think he was on the fringe of the French National Team at some point. Hopefully he can regain some form of relevance at Nice playing under Viera. Schneiderlin is still the player with the highest number of successful tackles in the Premier League since 2013 (422)

Bournmouth were the better team for the first 20 minutes but couldn't score. Mkhitaryan has been poor for Arsenal.

Since June he has played 33 games with Chelsea and France. And in only 4 of those games he didn't play the full 90 minutes. Maybe he is not tireless after all.

As good as he has been here in France, I don't see him making the transition to a better league yet. As some said I don't think he has improved that much on the technical side of his game but here he plays with confidence. Plus Lyon are not expected to win anything with PSG crushing any form of...
