Singin’ in the rain.
Conditions were so bad that the match was postponed yesterday, and then put off again today. For what it’s worth, here’s the lineup that would have taken the field — for the second match in a row, Rémy was in the squad but didn’t even made the bench. By next weekend, one [...]

•Ospina reads the game really well — he’s almost never surprised by [...]
A Pair of Reports, One More Thorough Than the Other

The number of times this man yelled “HABIB!” against Lorient: 419.
Report the First
Alright, so, the Lorient game. Ugh. Fantastic to play like that and get three points, but still — ugh. The goal was a stroke of luck, a failed clearance that ended up at Chouf’s feet with the keeper down, and which he rolled [...]

I was reading — by which I mean “looking at the charts and the pictures” — La Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, and they had a piece comparing the top clubs in all the major European leagues, in which the top of each table was included. And Nice were there! For some reason, seeing that [...]
