Caen’s game tomorrow against Toulouse will not occur because Toulouse has to play Liverpool in Champions League Qualifying. So [...]

Watching the match right now. Nothing much has happened. Compan, Lemaitre and Samson are some notable bench warmers at the moment.

Goal.com did a week 1/season preview today and I can tell you, they do not like Les Malherbistes.
“Caen and Nice square off in what could be a dress rehearsal for a bitter relegation struggle. “Malherbe”, though, have something to prove: they’ve improved their squad nicely over the summer and will hope to consolidate.”
Ouch, Goal.com…..Ouch.
