Oops!

I was playing around with different formations and decided to stick with the 4-4-2, but I forgot to erase Nasri from my revised lineup! It should look like this:

Coupet
Sagnol – Gallas – Mexes – Abidal
Ribery – Toulalan – Makelele – Malouda
Henry – Benzema

Though I wouldn’t mind this either:

Coupet
Sagnol – Gallas – Mexes – Abidal
Makelele – Toulalan
Ribery – Nasri – Malouda
Henry

I was going to mention the twelve players, but then I thought, “Shh. Maybe the refs won’t notice.”

But, unfortunately, Laurie, that’s 12 players!

I like the players you listed, Laurie, except I doubt Chimbonda, Menez, Clichy, Diaby, Mavuba, Piquionne, Reveillere, and Briand will make it. A BIG if on Trezeguet, Saha, Cisse, and Flamini. My guess is that Domenech will go with one of Trez, Saha, or Cisse, and Flamini or Alou Diarra.

Ben Arfa and Rothen have to work a bit harder to get onto the roster but I think they will manage.

I don’t anticipate Domenech shaking up his goalkeeper pecking order until after the Euros.

The squad I would like to see start:

Coupet
Sagnol – Gallas – Mexes – Abidal
Makelele/Vieira – Toulalan
Ribery – Nasri – Malouda
Henry – Benzema
