Remember how everyone was saying this would be the Bundesliga’s year to push Serie A out of it’s number three spot? I think we’ve officially got a new candidate.

In all fairness, the same can’t be said for Marseille, who kicked off their campaign with a bang, beating Besiktas [...]

Raymond Domenech announced his squad for the upcoming Bleus friendly against Slovakia earlier today. Out of the 35 players invited, only one was new. He’s a goalkeeper, he plays for Sochaux, and he goes by the name of Teddy Richert.
