Big Pat is Back - One from the Archives
Some said big Pat was too old in 2006. Togo found out otherwise, on the wrong side of a Vieira-led 2-0 drubbing.

And Domenech Calls Up…You’ll Never Guess
I don’t know why I’m surprised by these Raymond Domenech decisions anymore.
Actually, come to think of it, I’m not surprised by these Raymond Domenech decisions anymore.
Raymond lost a DM, a center/leftback, and a rightback this week to injury — Lassana Diarra, Julien Escudé and Bakary Sagna.
So who does he call up? You’ll [...]

I Wanted to Ask What You Think of Hoarau’s Goals, but…
My plan for this post was to give you videos to ask you want you think of PSG’s discovery, Guillaume Hoarau, who scored two goals today. (One was a penalty, the other a header.) He’s PSG’s top scorer this season. I think I read they paid either 500K or 800K Euros for [...]
For Doumé and Everybody Else Who Cares: How to Find Highlights Online
Reader Doumé left this comment in a previous post:
Laurie,
Speaking of Nico’s double, I couldn’t find the goals anywhere, it seems Youtube and Dailymotion forbid highlights. Every time I click on something, it’s a still picture with a crappy link - sometimes to a porn site, but I didn’t think Anelka did that kind [...]
The list for France-Uruguay
First off, my pet peeve. Why the hell is Patrick Vieira on the list? You know he’s just going to get injured before the game, and even if he doesn’t, he’ll be injured in 2010. So why are we not seeing somebody like Mathieu Flamini, or (maybe Abou Diaby) instead? (Sorry, [...]
Gourcuff’s Fancy Footwork
There was some talk after the Tunisia game about Gourcuff’s attempts — not always successful — to utilize Zidane-like footwork so he could really claim the role of “New Zidane” for himself.
Perhaps practice makes perfect? Because on Saturday against Toulouse he made it work. Said Yoann:
“When the ball arrived at my [...]
France underachieving in World Cup Qualifying, but the FFF still thinks Domenech is the best option to lead the team
If past performance is an indicator of future results, then the decision by the French Football Federation (FFF) to keep Raymond Domenech as the manager of France’s National Football team is cause for concern.

The Goals from France 3-1 Tunisia
First goal. Is it possible for a defender to screw up any worse than this? I don’t think so. And why the heck didn’t Mandanda stop it? (My co-blogger Chris and I were discussing the team the other day, and I said that we needed to replace the central defenders [...]
