		<description>I&#039;m worried about both Thuram and Sagnol.  We need that balance between youth and experience.  If we lost them plus Vieira, we&#039;d be hurting.</description>

		<description>Well who knows, he just officially shortened his training; Thuram and Sagnol weren&#039;t playing the 10 vs 10 game, just working out. We&#039;ll se how things are tomorrow I guess...the staff is really excellent at what they do, but but...</description>

		<description>i picked viera-toulalan...
but if viera is injured idk.
we should call back flamini for sure, and
then it would probably be make toulalan.
but this is very defensiive...so doms would resort 
to a 451 and have a more cam player like nasri or anelka in that position.
that would suk for benz tho, cuz henry is god in doms eyes althought 
quite frankly he suked this season for barca</description>

		<description>Wow.  That&#039;s news.  Who would that bring back do you think?  Flamini, or A. Diarra? 

I know I&#039;m a horrible person, but having Makelele and Vieira on the field together scares me.  They were gods in &#039;06, but Vieira has hardly played on the NT in the last year.  

I don&#039;t wish an injury on him.  I really don&#039;t.  But if we have to lose a player to injury...</description>

		<description>Well it looks like at today&#039;s training, Vieira left the pitch early, while holding his left thigh. Toulalan took his place in the training team. Well?

		<description>&quot;Toulalan should start every match in Euro 2008&quot;

talent-wise he could, but he&#039;s played ALOT this season and though he&#039;s young, it must be starting to wear him down.</description>

		<description>I have to agree with my buddy lefutur, Vieira and Toulalan ideally would be the best as you have the fiery, aggressive leader in Vieira with his equally effective, while better offensively (as in distribution) partner in the Lyonnais. If Maké was at his peak, I&#039;d have to give him the edge over Toulalan, because I think his tackling ability&#039;s better, though the concern I have with Claude these days is his speed isn&#039;t what it was, so as a result he&#039;ll have difficulty catching up to the play if he didn&#039;t anticipate it correctly. Of course, he almost always anticipates it correctly, so it isn&#039;t a huge concern, yet I believe it&#039;d be more difficult to bypass a Vieira-Toulalan pairing at its best.</description>
