LUX Allez les Bleus.


I hope they fail to score again. :lol:

There must be some decent odds for that?

I was told that in 2006 the split was between players who had been involved 1998 & 2000 and the younger players.

Didn't the manager in 2006 also recall Zidane, Barthez and one other after qualifying - can't see how that would have helped anything

To be fair Abidal and Govou should be dropped due to ability more than anything else.

I'm sure Ankela was the other one who was recalled...


Impossible, as Anelka had never played in a World Cup prior to this one.

Can't wait to see Laurent Blanc's first squad and how he goes about trying to re-unite the team.

He's got a bit of a job on his hands now!
