Football season 11/12
So.
Feyenoord greatest talent, Wijnaldum, went to PSV. Good for him, though. And next year he would've walked away for free. This way he at least gets Feyenoord 5 million.
Feyenoord's second real talent, Fer, wants to go to Twente. Due to a cave in of the roof of their stadium, that'll probably won't fly. But thankfully one of our 'fans' actually physically threatened him. Moron.
And then the coach yesterday took off after pretty much all players told him they'd lost faith in him. Apart from the fact that he didn't do well as a coach, it's not really the best timing. On the other hand, better now than after 4 or 5 games.
Any news on the Lyon front?

The news are that we are letting some players go and not buying anyone at the moment because we are "going to trust our youth".
Also, Puel was fired after 3 title-less season and the new coach is Rémy Garde. Used to play for Lyon and Arsenal in the 90s, then was deputy coach under Houiller at Lyon and was last year the head of the Academy.
They seem to think he will go the same way as Pep Guardiola just because, like Pep at Barça, he learned football in Lyon and did most of his carreer there.
All I see so far is a weakened team and an unexperienced coach. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get past stage round in the CL for the first time in 10 years.
Also, Gourcuff is already injured.
The real big news in France so is the Qatari royal familly buying out PSG and bringing in Leonardo as manager. And big petro-dollars to buy famous players (though this has yet to happen).
