Our France Blog Has the Midas Touch

Before the Ecuador friendly, before the final squad list, there was France Euro 2008 blogger Jeff.

Jeff wrote up a profile on shock call-up Bafetimbi Gomis. Gomis had an amazing debut, scored two goals and made the team.

And Jeff also wrote up a profile on goalkeeper Steve Mandanda. Mandanda kept a clean sheet for the half he played, his first game ever for the full France team. And he also unexpectedly made the squad.

Two players turning to gold after Jeff wrote about them. Coincidence? I think not.

If you are a French player looking to have stellar games while catching the attention of coach Raymond Domenech?

We can be bought.
