Now that elber is out for likely the season who will be his replacement. I like Ben arfa but i dont think that the team is ready to depend on him for the whole season and in the cl, his still too young. Wouldn't this be a good time for lyon to sign a new stiker, they have the money from selling ednilson and luyindula. They didnt spend alot of money, cris and frau werent that expesive so i think they should sign a new striker. Im suggesting saviola or tevez or sumbody or they might loose thier tittle. who do u think they should sign or if they should sign?

They want Dindane of Anderlecht but he's already played in the Champions League so he cant play for Lyon in the CL. Tevez, Mutu, Anelka, Morientes, Robinho, Saviola, Nonda all those names have been brought up by fans in the Lyon forum. I'm not even sure the fans are convinced that they are bringing in somebody. No one knows what Aulas is doing except him himself. He has made statements about certain things and then has contradicted himself a few times.

Out for the season?! First it was until Christmas. Now they are saying two months. It's cool to have insurance, but it's a good time to see if someone on the bench can step up.

All the guys on their bench are youngsters why would you wanna rely on them in the Champions League

nilmar is going to be something. young, quick, and a good shot. he doesnt play for porto alegre though (it is a city not a team). he plays for internacional, which may be located in Porto Alegre.
he would probably succeed in the french league as well.

imo...no way they get:
saviola, anelka, tomasson, or ibrahimovic.
i guess bayern would sell pizarro, however i think he wants to go to spain or italy.

Lyon have been heavy linked to Anelka...But I think they'll get someone on loan to fill the gap left by Elber's injury.... :)

elber is getting old anyways signing a new high-end striker would be a good way to ease him off the team. I hope they just dont sign any of those old cheap players like wiltord, i'm tired of french clubs not investing so much money into teams. They should sign young players like tevez/ saviola /ibra or someone who could register 20 or more goals this year like how monaco bought chevanton. I want lyon to at least get in the finals of the Cl this year, last year they got far, even beating bayern i hope they do better this year

Wiltord an old cheap player ? I think he can really help some team and has a a few good years left in him. Your Juventus is one of the clubs he's rumored to go to.
