Comments on: Gourcuff’s Fancy Footwork http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/gourcuffs-fancy-footwork.html France - World Cup - South Africa 2010 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:09:10 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Alex http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/gourcuffs-fancy-footwork.html/comment-page-1#comment-147039 Alex Mon, 03 Nov 2008 12:36:53 +0000 http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/gourcuffs-fancy-footwork.html#comment-147039 France should consider replacing Henry with Anelka. Despite the fact that Henry has been doing well as of late playing for the NT, he is not playing well for Barca. Anelka, on the other hand, is one of the top scorers in the Prem, and France certainly needs someone to score goals right now. France should consider replacing Henry with Anelka.

He rarely loses the ball, and he often has a little bit of skill to create openings around the box, plus he's scored a few goals. Another Arsenal player who could force his way back into the national team is Diaby. At times he looks like a footballing genius, full of incredible trickery. He's never performed near his best at Arsenal for a sustained period, but if he does, he would be one more fantastic attacking option for France.

Check out this interview from the great Platini (in English): -This man can save English football- http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/oct/26/england-football-platini "The French League exports players, which means that it can have success at a national level. Although my own opinion is that French football has become too technical, and that is why they are not too successful at the moment. They work hard at Clairefontaine but football is not just about work. Also ... I think many young French players are too interested in money in England than football in France."

But aside from that I could work with it. Now if we can just figure out a central defense. Also, what did everybody think of Fanni in the Tunisia game? I thought he showed promise, although right now I wish we could move some of our leftback talent over to the right. Sadly, I have to agree that Ribery is greater than Anelka.
