“He took a ticket for Berne, you think?” – arsene wenger’s comment

I’m laughing here. I said I hadn’t seen this. It’s only in the clip I posted. This will teach me to actually watch these things. I only saw it when I had to go in and replace the clip that the UEFA nazis had pulled from DailyMotion.

Sandrahn, it’s a reference to going to play in Switzerland for Euros.

Michel-Olivier, you are writing from America. Just because American soccer sucks, doesn’t mean that the French football team fixes all it’s matches. French soccer is great, they reached the world cup final (unless, of course, they fixed World Cup games to get there…). Plus, it’s insulting to Ecuador….

Well this is it, Gomis is in at least there ’s a bit of fresh blood, Flamini is out-I can’t figure out why, diarra and makelele are copycats, they’re excellent but should they need to push from the back,who’s gonna do it. Flamini creates more movement that any defensive midfileders I know Domenech has a very fixed game plan in mind, That’s why he dropped Mexes and didn’t even call Trezeget. Let’s hope solidity prevails because by now every serious team can read us like an open book. As for a fixed friendly game that is so insulting for Ecuador. They are professionals who have just as much desire to defend their national colors as any European team. Shame on such comments probably coming from a professional PS2 player. Go France!

even though im w. the azzurri, i must admit between Trezeguet, Henry and Anelka their should not be any room him.

Henry – Trezeguet
Nasri
Makelele – Ribery
Viera
Abidal – Thuram – Gallas – Evra
Frey

(i absolutly despise Malouda)
too bad Mexes is injured, and Sagnol is really good, Anelka 1st choice sub, Govou/Benzema second for forward. i guess there are so many other good defensive options Domenech didnt need Flamini.(he was axed) When Thuram Sagnol Viera Henry and co. finally retire, we’ll see if the young peoples will shine through.

“He took a ticket for Berne, you think?” – arsene wenger’s comment — I guess I’m totally stupid but I’m missing out here on the meaning of this joke.

This guy michel-oliver is clearly a comedian troll, please don’t give him any attention. The match was “fixed”???? Who the hell fixes a damned FRIENDLY?!?!?! He knows crap about football. And to say that Brazil deliberately threw that match against France at the 2006 wc….well, I’m a Brazilian, and you know where the hell you and your delusional mind can go!!!

@MO: I’m writing from Oz but am European. However, doesn’t change the fact that you obviously lost contact with what football is – what the reasons are for that, doesn’t really matter. A fact’s a fact (and it seems all the others agree with me).
