22.09.2011 - El juego mejora, nivel aceptable, pero con la buena imagen no es suficiente
para ganar en Primera División y más ante el Málaga de las estrellas, con una alineación digna
de un equipo puntero de la Liga.
El Athletic cosechó ante el cuadro de Manuel Pellegrini su tercera derrota consecutiva y duerme en
puestos de descenso (1-2 con Espanyol, 2-3 con el Betis, 0-1 con Málaga).
El futbol en su estado puro sigue perteneciendo a los equipos de tradición, a los grandes por
naturaleza, los históricos. Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, Inter, Bayern.
Perdidos por ahà están Liverpool y Juventus que aunque se renuevan y buscan emerger en el
panorama mundial este año al menos seguirán fuera de la Champions League.
Worried. Rarely have Lyon supporters felt so worried before the start of the championship.
Worried that, for the first time in over ten years, their club might not be on the podium come the
last game of the season. Indeed, Ligue 1 observers now seem to predominantly place Lyon in the
outsiders category, with Paris, Marseille and Lille being the favourites for the podium.
Estuvo a punto de regresar al Real Madrid el pasado mercado de invierno, pero al final su retorno
se truncó, sin embargo,
Ruud Van Nistelrooy verá cumplido su deseo de regresar a la Liga
española, aunque no con el conjunto blanco, sino con el Málaga, que prepara un súper equipo para
instalarse entre los grandes.

Where the Lionceaux (the cubs) meet Lyon... This saturday, the FC Sochaux-Montbéliard,
unbeaten in three matches, hosts the Olympique Lyonnais, currently fourth before this 27th day of
Ligue 1. The Lyonnais have the opportunity to overtake Marseille and reach the third step of the
podium, getting closer (at 1 point distance) to the leader, Lille, until they play on sunday, and
to Rennes who lost to Marseille (2-0).
Chelsea ran riot in Copenhagen this evening, winning 2-0 with Nicolas Anelka scoring on both
sides of the half. The west londoners got just the opposition they needed to turn their sad form
around, with the bald Frenchman showing real class against a side who looked very much like they
hadn't played in two months.
An empty infirmary, a convincing win, a growing confidence, many if not all ingredients of a
virtuous circle now seem to be at OL's disposal. While the players train to prepare their Sunday
encounter against Nice for the 1/16 final of the Coupe de France, here's a roundup of news and
comments related to the club:
Jean II and Lyon, c'est fini .
The second half of the season is about to begin, we have our eyes set on that first game against
Lorient, but there are a couple of interesting things that have been said or done around the club

Here's a quick roundup:
