A third-tier team has made it to the Coupe de France final, so that's another easy trophy for Paris Saint-Germain

They collected some decent scalps - Chambly in the semis, RC Lens in the quarters, AJ Auxerre in the Round of 16, and lower-tier teams up until that point. I don't know how it works in other countries, but if teams from two tiers apart play each other, the higher-tier team has to play at the lower-tier team's pitch, which actually leads to a lot of upsets. Lower-tier teams almost never win the Coupe, of course, but they make it to the finals surprisingly often. The last one was EA Guingamp, who were playing in Ligue 2 in 2009 when they won.

In one sentence you've summed up my opinion of French football in its entirety But really, giving lower-tier teams a better sporting chance actually creates more excitement and makes the Coupe more interesting to follow (except, again, for the part where PSG will win).

Monaco are broken after the 7-1 and could have lost to the mighty Amiens today. Amiens ftw

julian assflange posted:Monaco are broken after the 7-1 and could have lost to the mighty Amiens today. Amiens ftw this is what GFFN says about Monaco at the moment: "RMC report this week that the Monaco dressing room is in an increasing state of disarray at present, with groups of players not putting in the effort required to secure 2nd place in Ligue 1 for multiple reasons. Certain individuals are playing as if they are thinking about the club they will be joining in the summer, others are taking less risks so as in order to be fit for their national team’s exploits in the upcoming World Cup. The contract extension announcement of midfielder João Moutinho has made some of his team-mates upset because they themselves have seen their contract extension negotiations put on hold at the expense of the Portuguese international’s shining new deal." If Marseille wins tomorrow, Monaco's slipping to fourth and (at least for now) out of the Champions League, lol

Good, I'm glad Monaco is getting hosed. I haven't heard much about Big Balo lately, did he manage to get himself frozen out of the squad or has he just been quiet?

They had a top 5 defense last year, Amiens in the Europa League would be awesome. Angers has managed to perform very well in the last few years, so I suspect Amiens can do it as well.

That away one, though... all you need is just black with that sky-blue crest, you wouldn't think that would be hosed up, and yet? Still, though, Robert Louis-Dreyfus bought OM when he was CEO of Adidas in the 90s, so to me it always felt like a sort-of connection to a period of time when Marseille was actually successful, god knows that isn't now.
