    Bonaventure and Salomon are blood-related? I don't think so because Salomon is an emerging young star especially during his time with PSV Eindhoven. Bonaventure is just so disappointing as a footballer. So much promise but never reached the level as he should have.

    :D so they aren't blood-related because one supposedly has less talent than the other? Kaka has an older brother who is also a professional. However, I'm not going to start asking if the latter is in fact adopted simply because he's been a dissapointment compared to his younger brother. Anyways, look it up if you have any doubts ;)

    Bonaventure is not a poor footballer - he can be an amazing and we've seen flashes of it. Unfortunately, right now he's hit a patch of really poor form. Remember though, a season isn't over for a while so the team still has time to go on a decent run.

    That says it all! No Pauleta and it is like the whole side is out-of-sorts.

    yes, we're missing pauleta no one can deny that, but i think we could've won this game without him. Looking at the first period, we dictated the game thanks to the youngsters in the middle and created good scoring opportunities. In the second, we were run over by a change of tactics and failed to adapt. Remember Lens never had really good chances except for those three. Better awareness and positioning at the back would've prevented those goals. Pauleta doesn't add anything to the team in this respect when he's on the pitch.
    Additionally, had a more effective starting eleven been on the field, I think the game would've been settled going into the break. PC for example, demonstrated him ability to deliver set pieces and should have been on from the start. I think that element alone could've boosted the confidence and drive of the squad after the goal. Lens wasn't particularly good at defending set pieces, and we got our only goal from a corner. So why not press that route?
    While going with Kalou from the start was a reasonable choice, but he should've been off after the break and replaced by someone who keeps the ball at his feet and goes on runs - namely, Rodriguez

    Anyways, Kalou apologizes to the folks of Bigsoccer's PSG board for his performance
