whoa didn't see that coming, Man City it is then.

 

wonder how much they'll pay for Cisse ?

[Greenoak]

This does not surprise me.

 

He has failed in the CL.

 

He has matched the previous manager but not taken them any further, dispite having a lot of money to play with.

 

Lyon are the French Chelsea. Expected to win most domestic title and cup and a very good showing in CL.

 

Time to try another mananger. Jose ???

[The Hitman]

Mourinho?

To Lyon?

You've got to be joking,why on earth would he want to go there?To leave Chelsea,he'd have an offer from Madrid or somebody like that.

so has Sven

There were rumours that Shinawatra wanted Ged if he took over Man City. With that looking more likely maybe Houllier is coming back to England.

LYON, France, May 25 (Reuters) - Former France and Liverpool coach Gerard Houllier stepped down as Olympic Lyon coach on Friday.

 

Witnesses told Reuters Houllier had informed his players he was quitting.

 

Houllier, 59, who joined the six-times champions in 2005, helped them win Ligue 1 titles in 2006 and again this year.

so has Sven

Dream ticket - Houlier and Sven, one to look after the academy, the other to look after the ladies... (first team can look after itself, like most of Sven's first teams)

[MickeyDocs]

sack rafa!

 

 

shouldn't this be in the general football forum?

[Mike]

rafa is clearly off after his comments after the game

allez gerard. lets see what he can buy with some proper money now.

[whitewidow]

Whatever forum I'd love for him to get the Citeh role and roll the Scum over in a couple of Derbies....

 

Diouf and Cisse must be crossing their fingers

[Flasher]

Owen for citeh

[crisps]

Strange?

 

Yes and no cos Lyon are by far the best team in France and there's no competition at all for them leaguewise, and attracting players capable of winning them the CL to France must be pretty hard, so I suppose he feels he needs a challenge?

[Falconhoof]

Ged is coming back to take over a combined Heighway/Rick Parry role. Director of football.

+ we are linked to malouda today.

 

Coincidence? je pense pas.

Surely winning the CL without players "capable" of winning it is a challenge?

[Guest Ant]

I feel a little French Revolution coming on...

I thought that too.

[Falconhoof]

He'd be perfect for that role, unlikely as it is, I could really see it working out.

Prepare the fax for a £10m bid from city for Cisse.
