    Don't understand what Barca is doing, if you're going to change the team as much as they have over the past couple of weeks, just sell Eto'o as well.

    They'd be stupid either way. They'd be stupid for keeping Eto'o when he doesn't even fit into the Barça system anymore and they'd be stupid for transferring him to Olympique Lyonnais and making that club even stronger then it already is. There would be no denying that Eto'o would make Lyon one of the favorites to win the Champions League. he would also have no trouble fitting in since Lyon have signed fellow Cameroonian International star Jean II Makoun.

    Imagine this:

    Starting Eleven
    GK Hugo Lloris FRA
    CB Cris BRA
    CB Jean-Alain Boumsong FRA
    RB François Clerc FRA
    LB Fabio Grosso ITA
    CM Mathieu Bodmer FRA
    CM Jérémy Toulalan FRA
    AM Miralem Pjanić BOS
    AM Juninho Pernambucano BRA
    CF Karim Benzema FRA
    CF Samuel Eto'o CAM

    Star Quality Substitutes and Reserves
    GK Rémy Vercoutre FRA
    CB John Mensah GHA
    RB Anthony Réveillère FRA
    DM Fábio Santos BRA
    CM Jean II Makoun CAM
    CM Ederson BRA
    AM Kim Källström SWE
    WF Kader Keïta CIV
    WF César Delgado ARG
    SS Sidney Govou FRA
    CF Fred BRA
    CF Frédéric Piquionne FRA

    That's scary.

    That's a solid group...aside from Boumsong. Maybe this is where Onyewu ends up.

    That'd be nice to see Onyewu going to Lyon, though I doubt he'd be first team in Claude Puel's system.

    They will dominate again this season, watch out for Miralem Pjanic he is a brilliant up and comming player.

    Yes he is and they'd be smart playing him up front with Juninho Pernambucano.
