We’re back with le but de la semaine here on the France Offside, where you, the reader, get to pick which goal you think tops the bunch. Olivier Monterrubio’s volley won him all the cookies last time around, but it’s time to move on and see what’s going on with the goals scored in this [...]

Goal of the Week: Round 8

By: Sam | Comments No Comments

Nené picked up last week’s honours with his whizzing free-kick, but that’s not important right now. For there are new candidates for this week, in order of the coolness of the stadium in which the [...]

Grabbing her first-born child by the scruff of the neck, Mary hurried him inside the house and told him to stay there. She knew the storm was coming. The storm of Ligue 1 transfer and injury news, that is. She also knew the storm would be a savage one, with stuff on Fred, Cédric Carrasso, [...]

The Transfer Cauldron is Boiling Once Again

By: Sam | Comments No Comments

08/08/08 is one year away, but some clubs decided 08/08/07 was lucky enough to go ahead and make some substantial transfers. What’s more, today there was a surprisingly high ratio of actual signings to unfounded rumours. I like these kinds of days.
+ First off, it seems as though Italian defender Manuele Blasi is going to [...]

Sablé turns around and signs with Lens, Valdo could be an OM player right now, Mendy headed to Parma?

By: Sam | Comments 1 Comment

First off, the big one. After making it crystal-clear that he loved Marseille, that he was coming to Marseille, that all parties had found an agreement, Julien Sablé has officially unveiled his other face and signed with Racing Club de Lens.

A particularly mouth-watering few days on the transfer front these past days, and Ligue 1 are doing their part in keeping the rumours going. Here’s a quick rundown of all that crazy nonsense, chiefly involving the currently-dormant Olympique de Marseille, still needing reinforcements for their Champions League campaign, and to a lesser extent, Intertoto-bound Lens, [...]

Goals of the season: 2) Christophe Landrin, Saint-Étienne

By: Sam | Comments 5 Comments

December 16, 2007.
Stade Geoffroy Guichard, Saint-Étienne.
84th minute, vs Valenciennes.
Midfielder Christophe Landrin, having a disappointing until that minute, was first of all part of an extremely well brought-out team effort, with the defenders and midfielders getting perfect touches and keeping the ball at their feet. Diatta played a ball down the side for Feindouno, who spotted [...]
