Monaco have sacked manager Leonardo Jardim

Mental stuff. How does one survive when they sold literally everyone?

I know it shouldn't be a surprise that PSG are walking over teams given their firepower, but scoring 3+ in every game so far and 4+ in half of them is ridiculous.  Hopefully a tougher test this weekend when they travel to Marseille, but they haven't lost to them since 2011.

League 1 sides enter Round 9 or the Round of 64 of the Coupe de France this weekend. Started last night with Nantes defeating Chateauroux 4-1. Lowest level clubs tier 7 Olympique Strasbourg are at home to St Etienne on Sunday and ESC Longeau home to tier 4 AS Vitré also on Sunday. Only 1 overseas side has made it through to this stage, Aiglon de Lamentin of Martinique are away to Orléans of tier 2 on Saturday. Only one all League 1 clash, Toulouse v Nice on Sunday.

Olympique Strasbourg are actually playing at Stade De La Meinau which is the home of RC Strasbourg. A few other smaller clubs are using stadiums of nearby bigger clubs namely GSI Pontivy who are hosting PSG @ home of FC Lorient. ASF Andrezieux are hosting Marseille @ AS St Ettiene. Canet Rousillon host Monaco @ Catalan Dragons Rugby. In a curious case Pontivyen are at home against Guingamp playing at uhm Guingamp's stadium.

Ended up watching Lyon 1-2 Strasbourg.
Lyon so poor. Just awful finishing
Even poorer considering Lyon had a full strength team as they take the coupe de la ligue fairly seriously as the club havent won anything since the coupe de france in 2012

Lyon must be an infuriating team to follow. They took 4 points off City in the CL and played some excellent stuff in those two games, but I've watched them labour to draws/defeats against bottom half L1 sides a number of times in the last season or so. Some very hot-cold players in that team and you get the feeling they're much more comfortable playing on the counter than breaking down an organised opponent.
