Rémi Garde has distributed the list of players selected to face the promoted Ajaccio, this Saturday at the Stade de Gerland. And the coach of Olympique Lyonnais decided to include in his group's new signing Bakary Kone, who arrived from En Avant Guingamp. John Mensah, Ederson and Yoann Gourcuff, injured, are absent for this meeting.

 

The Lyon:

 

Lloris, Vercoutre - Réveillère, Gassama, Umtiti, Cissokho, B. Kone, Lovren - Gonalons, Kallstrom, S. Kone, Foot, Novillo, Pjanic, Bastos, Briand - Gomis, Belfodil, Lisandro.

Actually, thinking about it more - think this probably is a device to kick Pieters & Co into action. If Cissokho's this highly regarded, surely he wouldn't consider us and surely we could't afford him? Fits into our tried/test principle of bidding for someone who we know we won't sign. Whatever the reason; appease fans/kick-start another signing... delete as applicable.

 

Would be nice if we actually got him like.

Entirely believable, but also believable that they'll be similar bids as those for N'Zogbia, Gervinho and Gameiro.

 

exactly - we cant really be up for signing him cos Ashley is a w*****

 

but on the other hand if we are seriously trying then Ashley knows the score and his transfer policy is f***ing mint

Pieters has signed, blud. Just waiting for the ink to dry.

 

Last i heard he was stunting negotiations due to a bereavement.

Atleast happy to see the board trying to replace Enrique with quality. Chissoko has medical problems, so there might be something in it?

 

dental problems wasnt it that caused his move to Milan to break down?

Correct.

 

I wouldn't really read too much into it though. He's since had his teeth fixed with braces. I'd also say it's a testament to just how thorough a Milan medical is, they really are the forerunners in terms of prolonging players careers.
