France
How bad have they been? So disappointing and it makes it harder to accept considering I need them to win for my accumulator.
Henry looks disinterested, and Zidane isn't as good as he once was.
Martin O'Neill hit the nail on the head there - if Wiltord is a better player than Giuly then i'm a Ghanaian.
Hopefully this will be a rant of Kurt proportions and they'll do the business second half!

Re: France
He said "I'm a Dutchman" then changed it to "Frenchman" Ian!
Henry looks disinterested, Wiltord is shit, Zidane is past it too. The biggest factor for France is that they have the worst manager at the World Cup. He is an absolute loon.

I know what he said Rash, I was just applying my choice of nationality to his remark!
He's spot on though, Giuly would give them another dimension with his pace.
I'd fuck either Ribery or Zidane off and bring another striker on (probably Saha).

Re: France
Rash's latest toy 'Ribery' looks another pile of hype.

Re: France
i think they've done alright to be honest - nohing flash, but ok. with a bit of composure in the box they'd have a couple - although the defending on that free kick was shit.

Re: France
Ribery has been shit, so has Henry. Zidane though has been very good in my opinion. At least 3 key passes that Henry and Ribery should've made something of.

Yup - hopefully United will get him to team up down the left with Evra next season.

He is a good player but he certainly isn't my latest toy.
As for this game, even Henry looks shit and I wouldn't mind him.

Re: France
Is there a point to Sylvain Wiltord?

Re: France
How is it possible to give 5 (and counting) yellow cards in a game like this? Really no need for that in my opinion.

Re: France
Zidanes first half was excellent, and he has been their best player by a mile. That Ribery looks shit though..

Re: France
The French have been dire. Admittedly I thought the Swiss would give them a real game, but nonetheless, they're been hugely underwhelming. At least 4 of their first 11 shouldn't even be in the squad.

Re: France
France will continue the trend of 2002 and 2004. Dire to say the least. Hope they'll be knocked out of the WC after the first 3 matches.

Re: France
Well I've just caught the last 10 mins of this "match" and to be honest I'm regretting not working late. France haven't learned anything from their embarrassments at the last WC and Euro '04, have they? Henry looks sick of the lot of 'em and who can blame him?
They are utter toilet. | |
