concerning psgtv, they have been talking about it now for a couple of years... but the team's performances have not been so good, and the club was recently sold and bought up... but i think projects such as a new and modern training ground, some modifications to the parc des princes (talking about lowering the pitch and increasing the seating capacity by another 5,000 seats) and a psgtv channel are probably all part of the medium term plans... especially when marseille and lyon already have their tv channels, the "dirigeants" in paris probably won't let that stand for too long...

psgtv in the usa... :rolleyes:

It looks like PSG is actually putting some more time into a great club website. I applaude them for the effort. Too bad the English version has been awful in the past and not updated very often. I think if PSG is seriously interested in being global they should have French, Spanish, English, and Chinese at least.

Ask as you shall receive!

Looks like PSG are posting the sporadic english interview on its official site. This one, before the match against AEK Athens, features Paul Le Guen


PSG.FR -. Paul, what will PSG’s objective be on Wednesday night?
Paul Le Guen :« We hope to get the best result possible. We had a chance to watch this team as they were in the same Champions League group as Lille , so we know it’s not going to be easy. But we have qualities of our own to impose on the game, even if AEK start as favourites because of their results this season. »

PSG.FR -. I imagine PSG will be looking to build on the excellent victory over Monaco ?
Paul Le Guen :« It’s true that we come into this match on the back of some decent games. After picking up a good draw in Marseille (1-1), we managed to add a few goals against Monaco (4-2). The team is starting to look good and we need to continue like that. Above all, we have to make sure we don’t let our efforts slip. The players need to stick together, and our work continues every day. I hope and I think they know that already. »

Super Mario might return before the end of the season!

He trained lightly today, touching the ball for the first time since the horrific "collision" with Djib Cisse

get well soon :)

For those who will be in Paris on wednesday, Landreau will be present at the Parc des Princes store from 16h to 17h!

Given that he's been our best player of the season so far, this event is something nobody should pass up.

[Bilbao2Brooklyn]

Where exactly is the Stadium? What number Ar.?

[ilv2]

The stadium is in the southwest corner of the city in the 16e arrondissement, actually just above to the périphérique. Nearby you'll find a very nice hippodrome and the roland garros complex.

However, don't be fooled by the big freeway, that's the only one you'll see. The neighborhood that the stadium is in is Paris at its quaint, stuffy best.

...Dream Team vs. Nightmare Team...

Funny. And true, but lacking some of this year's "players" on that nightmare squad.

[Gotham PSG]

the calendar is out....
http://forum.psg.fr/fr/news/show.php?id=12023

We start at home against Sochaux, and obviously end the season there.
It's interesting to note that the first leg games dominate at home, while we'll be travelling a lot for the second part of the season.
Another interesting fact, the second game is against Lens, so we start big right away.
In fact, we will receive l'Oheme on Sept 1, and go there early in february, so again they're trying to loosen the tension between the clubs by not pitting the two teams against each other later in the calendar when the game might be worth much more.
Also, an important streak of big games will occur from the 5th to the 12th games, with Lille, OM, Monaco, Bordeaux, Rennes and Lyon almost back to back

Rodrigo scored a goal tonight in Uruguay's 4-1 thrashing of Venezula (Copa America).

Didn't watch the match, so someone will have to tell how well he actually played (i watched the previous uruguay-venezula match, and honestly, rodriguez was pretty much ineffective)

Rodrigo scored a goal tonight in Uruguay's 4-1 thrashing of Venezula (Copa America).

Didn't watch the match, so someone will have to tell how well he actually played (i watched the previous uruguay-venezula match, and honestly, rodriguez was pretty much ineffective)
He was the catalyst of the day. He took as many risks as possible to make things happen in the last third and made some excellent runs down the left to feed the attackers (he could've easily added an assist to his tally but Forlan didn't help). And the goal.

Now here goes my question: Do you think he's good enough to replace Jeje? :rolleyes:

[Gotham PSG]

I found him actually average
Especially the first half
And he is the one who broke up the wall and let the ball go in for the Venezuelan goal

On the other hand, he managed to get in the action of the four goals, even if, like the fourth goal, he pathetically lost the ball trying to dribble a defended, he was lucky to have a teammate around.

He started well, then disappeared and I was certain he would be taken out at the half, but he did end the game well, and Forlan seems to like him, he encouraged him throughout the game, even when Rodriguez was missing his balls (mostly because Cricri gave one or two balls on a platter for Forlan who put them wide, I think he wanted to make it up to Rodriguez)


Now he'll play against Brazil, I hope he is in the starting eleven, it's really cool watching a player of ours actually doing something good on the national level.
And if he manages to create a gem, we can sell him for a nice bundle of cash :D

Does anyone have any info on their youth academy, im going to paris in December and i wanted to know if there is any way for me to get a trial or how i would get started with all that business? should i send them a nice heart warming e-mail?

[catrachodanes]

Sorry to "steal" the thread for a second, but I have a question which I cant get any answer to: Where/how do I buy shares in PSG?

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone could help me with IDing a jersey, it is the one seen here: http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/Ronaldinho+-+PSG+vs+Marseille+3/video/x2gju3_ronaldinho-psg-vs-marseille-3_extreme
As that is a clip of Ronaldinho that must mean the jersey is from 01/02, 02/03 right? It looks like an Adidas jersey but from what info I found online Adidas has not made jerseys for PSG since the 80's? Anyone know the kit maker and where I could potentially buy one, player numbered or blank? I have checked ebay, ebay uk, and ebay fr but have never seen a jersey like the one in the video.

Well this might be a jersey used by PSG during the FA cup. Adidas was the sponsor so we couldn't use Nike jersey.
