Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues) [R]

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

I really wonder where he will go. Probably a 2nd or 3rd division team in the french league

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

He'll go either to another French team - League One, bottom - or to somewhere in the Netherlands or Belgium.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

O thanks for letting us know, you know which team as well?

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

I am sure the rumors will be brought up via the usual channels.

 

Charlie Davies update

any news?

 

Re: Charlie Davies update

Good thing you didn't put a question mark in the subject line, so people wouldn't come into the thread expecting YOU to provide the update....

 

Re: Charlie Davies update

As for the update, he watched Godfather I and II but made a wise decision to lay off of the last one:

It is Charlie, it is...

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Godfather III did suck. I mean, the whole kissing cousins thing was just creepy and if you're gonna tap your cousin, she should at least be really hot and Sofio Coppola doesn't qualify as such. Also, she ain't that good an actress.

That said, the movie did give us one very memorable quote:

Oh, and good to hear Charlie is ready to go on loan. That's a good step back on the road to full recovery.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Good line, even if I say so myself.

But a really sucky movie.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Give Sochaux a lot of credit. They have stuck with Charlie and they have acted very responsibly. Of course, they have a financial interest in seeing him through, but they have not tried to rush him back.

It is hard for people to appreciate just how serious his injuries were. Charlie Davies has made a tremendous recovery. It is a miracle that he is playing professional soccer at any level.

Be patient, Charlie. Hang in there!

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Provided that such a thing is even possible.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Well, tbf, Sochaux is helped out a lot by being 7th in the table and having Ideye and Maiga scoring plenty of goals for them.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Third best goal differential in Ligue 1 (this week). Three points from being tied for second.

Anybody who follows Ligue 1 closely have an opinion on Sochaux's chances at Europa or Champions League qualification?

Increased revenue plus more matches next season makes Charlie more likely to stay, right?

Chuck's latest tweet:

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Yes.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

I hope the goal was classic CD9 and not another penalty, either way its good news he went 90 and put one in.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Seems like Charlie scored the equalizer following a corner.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Was it a reserve game? Do those get played on Saturdays?

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

I don't know that much about it. It was a reserve match, and I believe they were actually playing Neuchatel's reserves, so not even another French team.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

It was a friendly ('match amical') for the reserve team, against the reserves of Neuchatel Xamax.

Sounds like CD put in a rebound off a corner.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

More or less, yes. They don't go into any detail, but it seems like an opposing defender cleared the ball to Charlie who was able to score the match winner about 15 minutes from time.

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Match winner in a 1-1 draw?

 

Re: Sochaux & Steady: Davies will win the race (The Saga Continues)

Oops. I need to stop posting when under the weather.

So, you're only going to post from outer space?
