    Excerpt From Ligue 1 Preview Article

    This is a small part of an article prewieving the upcoming Ligue 1 season:

    It could be argued that Lyon still miss a genuine world class striker but they are pinning many hopes on homegrown talent Karim Benzema, a gifted 18-year-old forward who looked extremely promising in 13 league appearances last season.

    "There is a lot of quality in our team," said coach Gerard Houllier.

    "Not only do we have excellent players with plenty of experience but I'm also convinced our youngsters like Benzema will reach a new dimension."
