As We Head Into the Weekend…

By: Jennifer | Comments 1 Comment

The big news, of course, is the game against ASSE tomorrow (which will sadly be missed as I am heading to university fair). School work is starting to pick up so expect to see less of me.
-Wendel is suspended for 3 matches for his red card expulsion against Grenoble. In an interview from a few [...]

Jussiê Is Back as Bordeaux Finally Gets Points

By: Jennifer | Comments 1 Comment

I don’t have time to elaborate, but it was a killer game with lots of action and drama and red cards, so, read here

This man got 3 points for us.
In other news, Chamakh’s excellent form has him linked to the EPL and Diarra is reportedly “dreaming” of England.
(I’m still looking for pictures of [...]

Writing This In My Little Corner

By: Jennifer | Comments 7 Comments

This game obviously hurt my poor heart. I didn’t even know how I can sit through the second half (’cause that’s when I started watching) after watching just about 5 minutes of play. Really, what is that!? It felt like playing with non-existent defenders..no more like defenders who intentionally set the ball up for Chelsea.

Just [...]

The Big One: Bordeaux vs Chelsea

By: Jennifer | Comments 20 Comments

I thought I’d get started on this early while I still have time. I think I’ve been anticipating next week ever since the Champions League draw ( but also because The Office and CSI:Miami are coming back. That’s what she said.)

Just to recap yesterday’s game, it was a great game, an electric first half with [...]

2′ WHAT IS THIS? I JUST TURN IT ON AND KONE SCORES? It looks like it came off a mistake from Chalmé. 1-0
4′ My god, this stream sucks. Everything is too bright. But, Chamakh AND Placente are playing. (Welcome back guys)
Oh Wendel Wendel! SO CLOSE! Mandanda is lucky with that one.
13′ Placente..I’m not too impressed [...]

They’re going to be on TV!

By: Jennifer | Comments 4 Comments

Thank you TV gods! For years I have lamented the lack of French teams playing in Champions League actually making it on television (see last season’s matchup between Lyon and Man. United. I was outraged to hear that the first leg will not be on TV.)
Thankfully, ESPN thought that Chelsea (vs Bordeaux) is actually big fish enough [...]

Gourcuff & Diarra Against Serbia

By: Jennifer | Comments 11 Comments

I couldn’t watch the game as I was in school, but reports (and friends) say that Gourcuff had a fantastic 90 minute showing against Serbia in this qualifier (my only regret is that Stankovic was hurt..) His return to international football is a fantastic and I must say that Domenech did France a great favour [...]

Gouffran for France Espoirs!

By: Jennifer | Comments 2 Comments

(I’ve successfully avoided posting about the loss to Lille. Let’s just say that it isn’t the best result.)

Good news is that Gouffran found his mark against Malta with France Espoirs. Bad news is that he was later expelled for kicking the Maltan captain Clayton Failla.
As well, you might already have noticed, but I won’t be [...]
