AS NANCY - HOW GOOD ARE THEY???

 


I know they looked like world beaters at Fir Park and they could've obviously won by much more than the 2-0 they did on the night. I was then really impressed to see they had hammered Feyenoord 3-0 in the first game of the group stages. This made me feel proud that our 0-1 defeat over there wasn't too bad after all.

Many Well fans on the message boards were looking at putting money on them as an outside bet to win the UEFA Cup.Not sure they are that good, given some better sides will drop out the Champions League (Celtic!)

Then I looked at the French League table and discovered their League form was poor, and they were close to the bottom of the table.

Without doing a great deal of work I looked at some of their line ups in recent games and the coach seems to mix it up every week!Maybe they are concentrating too much on the UEFA Cup and this affecting their League form.


I guess time will tell in both competitions how good they actually are….
