Even the Elephants are angry at Thierry…
It has been a while since we have caught up with the team, potential teammates, managers and alumni during the international down-time.

Today marks the first day that I was proud to have Raymond Domenech represent France. The man has managed to string together several intelligent words and shown [...]

The British press is reporting that Zidane may be be offering his expertise and assistance to Algeria this summer in South Africa. Zidane, who is the son of Algerian immigrants to France, has already started working as an adviser to Real Madrid earlier this year as an introduction that may lead to a more [...]

Not to dwell on the play-off saga any longer, but I missed this story about Domenech fighting with Bixente Lizarazu(former Bordeaux, Bayern, Marseille and France defender) on the French National Radio minutes after beating Ireland.

I was just researching the France Team Profile for the Euro 2008 main page (which will go up later tonight) and found this video. Thought you’d enjoy it as much as I did!

All righty then. We’re getting ready to absolutely, completely immerse ourselves in Euros.
But before we do that? Let’s enjoy the view of former bleu Christian Karembeu (with gaping shirt) and his lovely wife Adriana. (The one with the black bra and seethrough top. You know. The former WonderBra [...]

I was looking for something entirely different when I stumbled on this over at the site AllPSG.com
