Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] Pastor said he wouldnt resign. Anyway they cant even beat Nice because they drew 0-0 with them at home. Monsoreau out injured for 5 weeks.
Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] why should pastor resign? he's the richest man in monaco (no mean feat) and he'll take the whole show down with him if he wants. or even if he doesn't want. ASM is one club that will have a hard time fighting their way back up from L2. money could lure very good players to the sun to play in front of 2,000 fans for DD and a CL spot, but to play in 2nd division? for pastor's troupe of clowns? a few years ago the club had an idea to apply to play in seria A instead of france. maybe now they should see about admission to the qatari league. it's all very sad, since monaco was the first team in france that caught my fancy, but that a century ago... seems like more!
Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] It would be a shame to see the gorgeous Stade Louis II resigned to showcase second division play...and the European SuperCup. Ok, you get my point, for the sake of aesthetics, get your act together ASMFC ! (side note: my first Ligue 1 match was at the Stade Louis II, it undoubtedly has a special place in the ole coeur)
Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] an added advantage is that Louis II is the only stadium in L1 where you can get real beer at concessions. also merguez-frites sandwiches! and no standing in line! but then, can you really see the principality accepting the alternative, which is a horde (well, 2 or 3 would suffice i guess) of kebab vans around the stadium? right between hermès and cartier? of course it's a far cry from what you get at an american stadium, where eating is more important than the game, but usually, if you really need something to eat at halftime you can get crushed for 10 minutes for a lukewarm near beer and the kind of ham sandwich they sell on the TGV (another place you should never get hungry). the real tip for those going to gerland is to get off a station early (debourg) and eat at kral kebab. better kebab, colder beer, cheaper than the roulottes, and you get to sit down. que veut le peuple? this is not a paid announcement, and bears no relation to any opinion relating to free speech, the european union, or genocides past present and future.

Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] They did not get a win, but at least the tie places them further away from the relegation zone, and allows them to gain confidence.
Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] I saw a small blurb about Glenn Hoddle possibly being the new manager and that definately made me chuckle a bit. I dont think that is a smart move. Paul Le Guen might not be a bad choice after he gets fired by Rangers.

Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] Rumor has it that Chelsea are keen on signing Serge Gakpe. I really would love to see him play and take SWP position as I think he is better player technically. Who has been more influential for Monaco Gakpe or Menez. Who has the more potential Gakpe or Nasri?
Re: AS Monaco thread 2006-07[R] Gakpe is better than Menze but I like Nasri over Gakpe. You want Gakpe to replace Shawn Wright-Phillips ? Well Wright-Phillips leaving probably due to lack of playing time so I dont think Gakpe would be happy in just a back up role at Chelsea.
