Yes, a great signing, because we never really replaced him once he left last Summer, and it has cost us. What's more, he should be playing against the club he just left, Monaco, this weekend

Today it's Rennes/Monaco: I think it will be a good match because the two teams need to show that they are still alive.
Isaakson is back with Rennes, and we will see Di vaio with Vieri for Monaco.

1-1! Mvuemba et Bobo (cela saute aux jeux). Je peux ecouter au match pour la premiere fois cette saison, puisque il marche!

Pouplin reste entre les poteaux au lieu d'Isaksson!

ALLEZ RENNES

Quelle deception On s'incline 1-2 contre Monaco, et c'etait evidement que Bobo Vieri a manque tous les deux des buts On est pour l'instant 13eme.

OH NO!

Veigneau has scored in the LAST minute

I'm sorry for Rennes. I did'nt watch the match but L'équipe say that Vieri's goals were beautiful. After the match Guidolin said:" Bobo est extraordinaire !"
And Bölöni said: " Vieri? Mais je m'en fous de Vieri! Quand on laisse un attaquant tout seul à 10 mètres sur un corner, même moi je peux marquer!"

If he's that good, then he should be playing himself, because we've got no Utaka and no Frei, so just Little Jimmy up front, which isn't exactly nightmare-inducing.

Une defaite encore une fois! Cette fois 2-0 a Bordeaux. We had a goal disallowed for hors-jeu and had spells of pressure in the game, but Smicer finished us. 15eme dans le classment, and as the commentator on the radio said, "Les Rennais entrent dans une crise"

And unfortunnatly after they have hard matches against Lens and Lyon

Alexander Frei

sorry it does'nt work.
Frei

What does that translate as? Is Frei out for weeks?

Yes, he has a big injury, a "pubalgie" (like Henry few months ago).

I looked in my dictionary for a translation of "pubalgie" but it doesn't have one. Yes, Henry was out for quite a while, it is a bad injury. I don't know so much about Rennes, will they struggle without him?

Here it's in english

pubalgie=groin, I should have realised. Thanks for the link. For the sake of Switzerland and Rennes, I hope he make a good recovery, he might not get another chance to play in the world cup!

It's a shame, but the way he's been playing this season (5 buts cette saison par rapport a 23 la derniere Cependant, il reste notre meilleur buteur qui souligne nos problemes ) it doesn't look as if we'll miss him that much. This season has been a total waste after all of last year's hard work, finishing 4th. We stood still in the transfer market which meant that we got left behind. And with our away form being our achilles heel, we rely on home form which has slipped drastically to only 6 wins all season. Still, it's more than Derby will ever get this season.

It's amazing that teams can do so well one year and completely go to pieces the next! It happened to Ipswich in the premiership plus Everton, although Everton seem to be picking it up a bit again. Well, like you say, 5 goals after a couple of blistering seasons isn't really much to rely on from one of your better players! I don't think Rennes will face relegatoin, although it will be veery tight down there!

Neh, there's a comfortable cushion thank goodness, because there are some really poor teams in this league that even we've beaten. Strange that Strasbourg keep on winning in the UEFA despite being dead certainties for relegation.

Just seen le classement, Rennes should be ok. It's probably the three at the bottom now who will go down.

Yes, Strasbourg, Ajaccio and Metz. I hope Bastia will be in Ligue 1 next year, to have a corsican club.

What about Sedan? Ha ha ha!

INCROYABLE!!! 2-0 a mi-temps! And not just that, 2 goals from Utaka, against the club we bought him from in the summer! Where did this performance come from!? ALLEZ RENNES!

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!!!!!!

BUT BUT BUT BUT BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!!!!

JOHN UTAKA AVEC UN TRIPLE!!!!

RENNES 4-0 LENS!!!

WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON!?!?

Who said there was a crises at Stade de la route de Lorient?

C'EST FINI! On a concede un but dans le dernier minute, evidement, cependant le match restera un choque bienvenue et on espere que l'on peut construire sur cette victoire etonnant!

ALLEZ RENNES!
