This weekend l'OM visits Nancy. For those of us in the 'States, Setanta (as usual) will show the game live (1 PM EST kickoff).
Pretty worried about this, to be honest. We'll see what happens. Heinze, Diawara, and Lucho are out, with Niang only just making the squad (may not start, I'm not sure).
Good to see Marseille v2008/2009 win again ! I hope Deschamps understood that Valbuena and Hilton are good players. I missed Ben Arfa though.
The team looked solid defensively, and overall more organized. Let's hope this carries onto the CL (though I wouldn't hold my breadth over that). I will be satisfied if the team picks up steam again and fights for the title. The game could/should have been wrapped up earlier had it not been for Brandao's poor finishing: thankfully, he got one.
Brandao's workrate is absolutely vital for the team. When you run like 3 men, you don't have the same calm as a forward who waits for the ballon to play, in front of the goal.
