We welcome back our OGC Nice expert Roy Calley (Twitter - @RoyCalley) a former BBC journalist of over 20 years, Nice are never far from Roy’s mind having captured his loyalty when he moved to France. When last we spoke to Roy at the start of the season, Nice were ominously quiet in the transfer window and their then little-known Italian manager Farioli had just walked through the door. Fast forward to today and Nice built on defensive solidity and fortitude are proving to be a potent force again in French football. In fact, they have the best defence in Europe’s big five leagues conceding just 4 goals in their opening Ligue 1 games, the last team to score on Farioli’s men was PSG way back on the 15th of September another team they beat on this remarkable run.
