Hey ! Antonetti is one of the best coachs of Ligue 1, and tell me about Lacombe's temperament...yes but antonetti makes you laugh in a good way, and not just because of his lisp. lacombe is simply ridiculous, he gets on my nerves big time.

Rumours claiming that MLS player Ricardo Clark has had contacts with Le Stade Rennais.

Not that I know a great deal about him.

Local TV mentioned Charlie Davies as a target for Rennes. Obviously Boca gave satisfaction last year and the SRFC management thinks that Yanks are actually a good bargain...

Hard to imagine that there would be 3 US players at the Stade de la Route de Lorient though.

Ricardo Clark is an up-and-coming midfield destroyer. He's fairly fast, strong, and good at breaking up offensive pressure from the opposition. Not the best passer, but can crank a 30-yard shot with the best of them.

Charlie Davies is a speedy forward with an average-to-decent short passing game and keeps a cool head under pressure. He doesn't always make the best decisions on the field and could use some work on his first touch, but with the right coach he could be a fantastic player.

Does Rennes have any use for players like these?

Perfect replacements for Mbia who will probably leave for Everton or Marseille and for Briand - but I didn't hear he could be transferred.

Any offensive asset will help given Rennes' problems in this area...

Bangoura has signed. Excellent reinforcement.

According to L'Equipe, Antonetti is willing to sign the Norwegian midfield Alexander Tettey from Rosenborg.

Reinforcing the midfield, having a better strike force as well. Me and 'Fredo' are sharing the same views ! :D

Tettey is a done deal by now...

Here is L'Équipe's pre season page concerning Rennes :

Toujours placé...

Le Tallac went to Dortmund. Was this an issue of playing time or what ?

No, it's a matter of big head. Even bigger than his brother's. So big that Damien couldn't play as a goalkeeper.

Who's leading ligue 1 beeeyatch !!! :)

Hem, please excuse me for such a miserable display, I'm just not used to this situation...Let me savour while it lasts...;)

What a goal by Bangoura ! You were right Catel, this guy could be the killer we needed. A good boost for the confidence, we'll see how all that unfolds.
