In a big game too. Looking at the table, if Nimes wins this game they will be 2 points behind the 3rd and final promotion spot.

Yup, Nimes are in the thick of it. The Ligue 2 table is a logjam between Avignon in 3rd with 50 points and Ajaccio in 15th place with 40 points. Nimes currently in 8th place with 45 points.

Caen (their opponents today) are top of the table...

The game ended 0-0 and according to the match tracker, Haidar had a pretty solid game. That's probably a result of receiving his first Canada MNT call:

Frank Jonke played 90 in 3-0 win for AC Oulu over Tampere. This is good in that it is their first game back up in the top division (same league as Monsalve and Ricketts) and Frank was apparently the third star: http://www.veikkausliiga.com/Matchdetails.aspx?ID=1301477

Nice pic of him here in the middle in this article: http://www.acoulu.fi/otteluraportti/20100418/ac-oulu-avasi-liigakauden-vakuuttavasti-tamu-kaatui-3-0

He's 25 but might deserve a look sometime at a B-friendly a la Ademolu.

Monsalve played 90 in a 1-1 draw with IFK Mariehamn: http://www.veikkausliiga.com/Matchdetails.aspx?id=1301481&year=

Ricketts didn't dress for MyPa: http://www.veikkausliiga.com/Matchdetails.aspx?ID=1301479

^I'm not saying that's he better now but he's got a great size and athleticism.

it takes more than that to be a great GK. Pelc has got the raw tools but he has to put it all together to really be an effective pro
