LOOKING GOOD

Striker Djibril Cisse says he feels unwanted by Liverpool coach Rafa Benitez and wants to join former Anfield boss Gerard Houllier at Lyon.

Cisse, training with the France World Cup squad at Clairefontaine, said: "Mr. Houllier signed me for Liverpool but I never had the chance to work with him.

"Now I have a coach who doesn't want me. Benitez doesn't use me, so I've taken a step back.

"I don't have the confidence of the coach; he doesn't like me."

Houllier helped bring Cisse to Liverpool from Auxerre but left the club shortly before the 24-year-old signed in July 2004.

This is just what was needed Cisse putting the final nail in his own coffin, i hope this makes it official that we are open to offers for the flop, and we get in a striker that can be a plus for the team

GONZALEZ AXED FROM CHILEAN SQUAD

Liverpool ace Mark Gonzalez has been thrown out of the Chile squad for a breach of discipline.

Gonzalez and Reinaldo Navia were axed from the squad by Chile coach Nelson Acosta after breaking rules during their European tour.

The pair were sent home from the trip after the coach caught three girls in their rooms 24 hours after their friendly win over Republic of Ireland.

Hope this is not going to be another spice boys thing maybe its better he makes mistakes now before we sign him and THE SUN gets hold of him.

But at least he gets full rest before season and if he had great world cup real madrid and barca would probably chase him so its not all bad
